A good shopping trip.. I had a couple of printable coupons and the lady kind of freaked out. She had to get it "approved." Geesh, it was only two out of about 20 coupons! BabyK slept through almost the whole time. He woke up in time to get a free balloon from the floral department. He loved that!
Total before coupons and discounts: $85.39
Total after coupons and discounts: $28.05
Total savings: $57.34/67% savings!!
Tomorrow I try my hand at CVS again. I'm hoping to get as much as I can for BabyK's birthday party for as little as possible there. We shall see how it goes...oh, and tonight I made a ice cream cone holder for his birthday cake thing out of a cardboard box. I'm going to try and do the cake in cones approach and made a holder in the shape of a cake (sorta) to put them in so they don't fall over, they can look more like a cake, and it is just prettier. The holder is made, but still needs to be decorated. That's tomorrow's project! Yeah, because I have nothing else to do...

She freaked out because we're not supposed to take printable coupons, they're generally fake if they're worth more than 1 dollar, and fake coupons are just as bad as fake money. However, your cashier should have known how to check if it was real or not, without having to call a CSS or CSTL, or really even saying anything to you. The other day I got a fake coupon, this one was VERY fake... It was a blurry copy of a publix "5 dollar off" coupon, with a fake look up (PL) number on it, that didn't work. The coupon wasn't expired, so the PL should have worked, but it didn't... We get ripped off a lot at publix, you may say it's "just two coupons" but it's not just you who brings them in, it's almost everyone who has coupons, and if we give you a discount on something that you shouldn't be getting a discount on, that's money out of our own pockets, (because the vendor, or who's ever sponsoring the coupon, won't repay the lost money.) because the employees own publix. That's money off of our hard earned stock, and we're just trying to prevent loss.
