First Brag!!!!

[KrysannetheMuM]

I am soooo relieved!!!!! I never know how the cashiers are going to react when I hand them a stack of coupons!!! After shopping for about an hour at Walmart tonight, going through my coupons very carefully, making sure they all match what I am buying, I headed to the dreaded cash!!! I had quite a few Internet coupons, which always get looked at, inspected and I always wince, when they look at them yet again!!! So as I headed up to the cash, I scanned the cashiers, an older woman who looked like she was already annoyed ... a younger woman who looked a little flustered and a young guy , I've been through his register before. SOOOO glad I chose him...as I handed him the STACK of coupons, I said "please don't hate me" and smiled he was like, "Oh no worries"!!!!yay!! I was already relaxed!! Don't get me wrong now ladies, I am a late 30's married Mom, he's a kid, so he was looking at me like I'm his mom!!! Anyway I was nervous because I had 6 pkgs of stayfree pads on sale for $2.00 and I had 2 internet coupons for $2 0ff a regular priced item!!! also 2 more coupons $5 off WUB2...anyway, he was cool and didn't even batt an eye over it. and continued punching in all of my other coupons too.....so for my fist brag here's what I got from walmart,

2 Stayfree pads- $2.00x2-$2.00x2 off coupons(internet)=FREE!!!
4 Stayfree pads- $2.00x4-$5.00 off WUB2x2(websaver)=FREE+made $2

Great shopping! I always choose the young men too. Maybe it was all those pads that made him nervous...if he's anything like my husband, he probably just wanted them out of there, so he would have punched in any coupons you had! LOL!
