I finally felt like going out and seeing what deals I could get. Started off great, but boy did I come home ticked off!

First stop was Rite Aid, this was all they had left in stock. :(

Would have been much cheaper had the husband not needed the Axe. We'll also get back $4.00 in Single Check Rebates. So technically we spent $1.47. :)

Next stop was Publix. I had a bunch of free coupons I wanted to use and some store coupons. However the cashier was a pain and the manager wasn't helpful and they refused to accept store and manufacturer coupons. Instead they told me to pick which ones I wanted to use. I was extremely mad. I have a friend who just did this deal! Just last week I used a store and manufacture coupon! What on earth is the deal? I already shot off an email to corporate about their inconsistent policies. I still did okay...

Not bad at all, but like I said it would have been cheaper had they let me use my other coupons. What I find amusing, and what I just noticed while typing this up, the girl DID scan both Tide coupons - manufacturer and store - and they DID both process. Yet she handed me back my Tide manufacturer coupon telling me it wouldn't work and the register wouldn't allow it. What a bunch of idiots tonight. Meh.
