First brag post

So, it was my birthday, husband and I and our 2 boys (ages 1 and 2) went for lunch at red lobster's. Of course I had to use the lunch coupon
Went to zellers after that. Had a hard time with the cashier. Here is what I got:

Royale toilet paper 24 rolls reg $ 8.99 PM walmart $4.48 - $1 coupon = $3.48
Mr . Clean liquid product reg 2.69 PM walmart $2 and Mr. Clean spray product reg 4.49 PM walmart $2 - $2 coupon when you buy 2 different Mr. Clean product =$2 ( $1 each)
Listerine with fluoride 1 litre mouthwash reg $6.99 PM food basics $4.99 - $1.50 coupon = $3.49
2 sunlight green clean reg $6.99 each = $ 13.98 PM fortinos at $4 each = $8 - 2x $2 coupon = $4 plus MIR on both bottles= FREE
Crest toothpaste with whitening and Scope reg $2.59 PM fortinos $1.99 - $0.50 = $1.49
2 Glade sense and spray reg $9.99 each= $ 19.98 sale for $4.99 each = 9.98 - 2 x $5 coupon = FREE

Total purchase savings: $26.27
Total coupons and MIR: $23
Total savings: $49.27

Paid $18.79 ( should be $14.79 after MIR)

The cashier at zellers gave me a hard time using the sense and spray coupon since I will be getting them for free. She called CS who raised her hand up to me (like shutting me up) when I tried explaining. Husband backed me up, telling the cashier that the store will get reimbursed anyway for the coupons. She said that they will not, that it's different for the store and the coupon manufacturer (???????) In the end, I won, my 2 boys and 24 weeks baby in tummy certainly was not enjoying the craziness though...lol

Went to walmart to get gillette shaving cream at $ 1.96 each x 6 = $11.76 - 2x $5 coupon when you buy 3 gillette products= $1.76

Great Brag...........Good for you. Nice that you stood your ground and didn't let this ruin your birthday day. If that makes sense. LOL. Nice that your husband stood up for you. Good for him. The stores do get the money back from manufacturers.
