Great deal this week with the contact solution! That is so expensive, thanks for matching this up!
ReplyDeleteHi Jenny,
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome. If I remember correctly, contact solution was a small money-maker last year around this time also. My son's the only one in our family with contacts, but I stocked up. I think there is still an unopened bottle. But, I bought more today. One more thing I hope I never have to pay for again.
The Asst. Mgr. at the first Wags I went to tonight wouldn't let the Ecotrin be a MM for me, so I just voided the whole transaction (for the 2nd time b/c the cashier didn't know how to handle Qs very well) and left. :-( Next Wags had no Ecotrin on the shelf. I think I may just leave that one alone and focus on the other MMs. The woman in line behind me ended up storming out w/o even making her purchase, and there were several more people behind her. If only the BA hadn't been on break...

Hi Staci,
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your experience. I agree, some deals you just have to walk away from. Overage is nice, but it is something you can't demand.
I've gone to the photo counter when the BA isn't around. I try to avoid checking out at the main register with coupons - unless no one else is in the store. But, I know that is not always possible.
The $10 off coupons are not going thru. I did it twice and both times the cashiers has to push them thru.
ReplyDeleteHi Tisha,
ReplyDeleteMine beeped also. I wonder if because the coupons cover many different products if they would beep anywhere you used them?
