Saturday is ME day, which means I expect my family to take care of themselves.  In between time-consuming tasks like mani/pedicures, sigh, I squeezed in a few shopping runs.  Wags was a last minute – Oh, I forgot the Kleenex sale ends today!! – run and the Jewel?  Well,  let’s just say I have no great faith in the mixers or PF Chang still showing on the preferred cards after tonight.  May be wrong, but I’d rather buy them all now and return with my coupons within the next 60 days.

Found Kleenex at only one Wags, and they were the cube ones, not the 200 ct boxes, but hey, beggars can’t be choosers, right?  So 8 boxes with 4 coupons; ended up OOP $4.37 and got back a $3 RR.  On to Jewel…

This Jewel had a goodly selection of the HC mixers, so ran two transactions of 8 each using my Dominicks Fresh Values cards.  What, you want me to lie about it?  No PF Chang on either of them, only the mixers, but hey… So I ended up OOP $4.35 on each deal, but I’ll go back with the coupons later.  Had I used the coupons at the time, I could have used 8 on each transaction and gotten $4 in overage, which would have been sweet, but in this case, I’d rather go back with only 4 coupons and not worry about missing out on the deal completely.  PITA daughter loves these things, so anything that gets her to eat is fine by me, especially if it’s free…
