I wonder if there are any coupon support groups out there? Maybe one for coupon addicts, or one for coupon crazed middle aged women, or most importantly, a group for those who suffer from melt downs when a coupon was not credited? Yikes. I have fallen into the last group and just to let you know how very low I have fallen, let me tell you what happened last night:
I made trips to two different Walgreens last night and did very well with my wheeling and dealing. I did 4 transactions and because of great coupons, I made money on some items which transfered over to savings on other items. I was quite smug, yet a tiny bit confused when I left the store. I knew something did not seem right, but I came home anyway. Two hours later, I am curled up in my pajamas, in my bed, when it hit me! The clerk did not take off my buy one get one coupon! A B1G1 no less! How dare he? I did the math and realized that my total would have been $2.99 less. $2.99, why that's a gallon of milk and a candy bar and I just lost it to a clerk that forgot to deduct it from my total.
I am embarrassed to say what I did next. I got out of bed, threw off my pj bottoms, slipped on my slacks, my coat and shoes, receipt in hand, and went back! Now, the store is only 2 minutes away, so at least I am not totally crazy, but I was pleased as punch when the manager handed over cash to me to cover the coupon.
Pictured above is my loot for the evening. And my final total was only $8.63! ( I even came home with a $3.00 RR from the Kleenex!) Just look at all that stuff! I know I am a bit crazy, but the craziness helps the budget.
