I also stopped at Food 4 Less, where they had Haas avocado 4/$1 and mangos 3/99c, and some other great deals. I spent $11 and got 2 huge bags full of produce. This is one of the great things about CA.

Good for you for giving yourself a rest and starting later today! Sometimes, everyone needs a little break.

We finally left the house at 1:30 in the afternoon.

Stopped at Walgreens #1 where they only had two triaminic strips left, so I got them. Loooove seeing $0.00 (no tax in NYS) and then a $5 RR pops out!

Walgreen’s #2 had loads, so I had hubby do one order and I did one order.

I managed to find a $3 RR that was expiring today, so I paid $5 for 4 newspapers instead of the $8 retail value.

I stopped at Tops where a lot of stuff went wrong.

1.) The in-ad coupon for the Sara Lee scans off as “$3 Breyers”. So, it attaches to the ice cream. I already used (2) 75¢ ice cream coupons, so the cashier over-rode the $3 Sara Lee coupon. This was a franchise store so their CS is excellent. I may not try to do that deal again, on the other hand all they can say is “no” and I have them take the Sara Lee off the order.

2.) The $5/$20 holiday merchandise is coded for GM items. I bought Solo holiday plates and napkins and they did not count towards the coupon according to the machine. The manger over-rode this coupon too since it is so ambiguous.

We also stopped at Big Lots where we dropped $50 and I forgot my reward card. *sigh* And we went to a local store for their meat sale where be got pork sirloin chops for 99¢#, 73% ground beef for 99¢#, 90% ground beef for $1.99#, frozen Haddock for $2.99# (saving me a trip to the restaurant food store!) and a few other meat deals.

So, what started out as a lazy day turned very productive!

No, Merry Brite santa hats nor ornaments…they were sold out!

I am just Thankful that I was able to get rid of all those beeping EBs!!!!!!!!!!!

CVS knows. I just got back and as long as you have the slips they are manually keying them in. They did that for me. I am in St. Louis area.

Seems like most of the CVS finally got the coupon printers in the area. Prior to last week I only knew of one store that had the machine and that machine was always up.

One of the reasons I am disappointed in the glitch today is because hubby had a 2/$10 CVS brand products coupon to use on the Merry Brite. Instant money maker! Since it is nearly 25 minutes to the nearest CVS, I am taking a pass until this glitch is fixed in the CVS system. My guess is the Merry Brite are already gone. Oh well, maybe next week since it is free after ECB bows, gift tags and tissue paper.
