And now I’m off to buy lottery tickets!  No, seriously, just wanted the Powerade on sale for 59¢ at Ultra.  Walked in with PITA, grabbed a case of 15, walked over to self-check with the 5 free bottles mfr coupon from the Westbrook Market ad and walked out paying $5.90 and tax.

Then off to Dominicks to see whether the Stouffer’s bags had come in – no.  Instead I got 16 boxes of Eggos.  Weirdly enough, the first time around I got the $5 catalina.  After that, no, even though these were all the NEW products (hey, the box even says so!) and the prices fluctuated even though I was buying the exact same thing.  Cashier was a peach, corrected each order manually and then returned the $5 cats so I wouldn’t have to wait at customer service.  Well, I had to go up there anyway to get a rain check for the Stouffers.  Customer service guy wasn’t going to give me a rain check for 30 (at the $2 Jewel deal match price), so the store co-manager okayed it.  I’m hoping they come in tomorrow, so I can stock up and use my rain check later – there are apparently lots of great flavors I’ve missed!
