66 bucks in coupon plus free dinner

[drusilla]

Hi all

So, i went out shopping today to a wal mart in st Catherine that i have only been to once before.

I got

10 fructis shampoo & conditioner sets. 3.77 - 3.00 when you buy 2 coupon.
paid .77 cents for each set.
8 glade candles and diffusers. 5.00 - 4.00 coupon.
paid 1.00 each

total coupons used = 66.00 bucks
total paid oop (most of it was taxes) 27.35


I even got a picture for you guys.



everything is going into x mas baskets and stockings for the family.
Plus i will keep a few shampoos for me to use.

I then stopped at mc donalds for my boyfriend and i's dinner. the total came to 19.83 and i gave the girl a 20. She then gave me back 19.83 as change.
so dinner was free. i also did not notice that this happened until i got home and it was to late to go back.

I hope she did not have to make up that $19.83 out of her own pocket, they usually have to I think, that's a pretty hefty mistake for her to make, especially if she was young and new on the job.

Your baskets are going to be an awesome gift! You'll have to post a picture when you make them up!!

i never worked at mc donalds but i know when i worked at a dollar store that if our cashes were over 5 bucks we had to pay out of our own pockets.

i couldn't go back because i myself don't have a driving license. it was my mom who drove me around and dropped me off that day. I am really not surprised because she was talking to her friends when she was serving me at the same time.

the baskets are going to be pretty cool looking but i just realized after separating everything, that the baskets i am going to need to find are going to need to be large.
Or i was thinking what if i bought some stockings and gave each person one of those full?
Hmmm i will have to see what i can come up with.

Plus i now realize that letting my family go through my stuff and take stuff before i made the baskets may not have been a good idea. Now i am missing toothbrushes, mens shaving cream, womens deodorant.

I am really curious to add up the cost of each basket.

This is really fun. LOL

Good shopping, but if I were you I'd go back and pay for your McDonald's meals. That girl doesn't deserve to have to pay for it.... that's several hours' pay for her to lose!
