First Real Brag! Fresh Co and Shoppers

[hockeylover]

After always feeling like I'm missing the deals, it seems my luck is starting to change...
I work at Fresh Co. and we're slowly relining the store section by section (getting rid of products we wont be selling anymore to make room for new products) and at my store we do this by making products 50% off if we will no longer be carrying them.
So the other day after my shift i got:
5x Arm&Hammer toothpaste reg. 1.99 -50% off minus .75 coupon = .25 each
3x Tide with Downy 31 load reg. 8.99 -50% off minus $4 wub 3 coupon = 3.15 each

My boyfriend also works at Shoppers so he gets 30% off regular price. Whenever we go in we always are on a hunt for the manger stickers because his discount comes off the original price not the after coupon/manager sticker price. The last two nights we've done pretty well...
7x vitamin waters 1.79 -30% off minus minus 1.50 ms = +.25 for every one = 1.75 towards my cold medicine!
the cold medicine and waters ended up costing me a little over $3 (medicine alone is reg 10.99)

Last night we went again to look around and we got:
13x vitamin waters 2.29 -30% off minus $2 ms = +.40 for everyone = 5.20 towards the rest of the things we were buying.
It seems the only way you get overages at shoppers is if your an employee...

and yes we checked the dates on the drinks...the soonest one was the 27th...

thanks for reading, sorry it was so long!

Thats awesome - Empolyees are usually jealous of the deals not the ones finding them - WTG!!!
