I just got home from one of those shopping trips where I almost feel like I should be looking over my shoulder as I leave. Today, I gave the cashier 59 cents and left with 15 razors, a cupcake, and two cookies!Yes, that's a lot of baked goods, I know. But, I had to get something to cover the overage, so I figured a cookie would be the perfect post-Passover treat. Only the lady in the bakery gave me two, for free! It was like when I was a kid and had my cookie club card. Since I was standing at the bakery and still needed to get something, I got a single cupcake (84 cents, I think she gave me another deal!).
After all that, they only had one pack of the specific razors (BIC Soleil Bella, 3 packs) in the coupon, so I asked if they would prefer to give me a rain check, or sub out a different BIC Soleil razor that was the same price, but a 4 pack. Well, the manager substituted the razors, so I got three more than the twelve I had planned. So, there was a lot of luck involved in my deal, but had I only gotten 12 razors and a cookie, it still would have been great!
Hopefully this story will help energize you in your couponing and deal seeking!
