    She spent 20 dollars on popcorn (which she admitted we had enough of), cheese (for nachos which we don't even have in the house), full price soap (she didn't even try and explain it), and Kraft Dinner (which she had told me we didn't need when we went their earlier this week).

    Between forgetting her receipts at the store (for the items she buys just so she can get mail in rebates and money from cashback offers) to not digging her coupons out until she is at the cash register she costs more money than she saves.
    I understand .My father is like that but at least I told him price matching and coupons.I hate to see ''wasted money ''..I always check the recepie and said you forget to save that 5,00$ for example.But I dont use the cashbacks application,I dont have a cell phone.It is all about Learning to save money.

    'm sorry if I hold up the driver behind me today..I simply am unable to drive faster than the vehicle in front of me on a single carriageway. I' haven't yet learnt how to manipulate matter, time or distance fully enough for that kind distruption to the space/time continuum..

    Oh, cath, I'm with you - I slept a few hours in the evening - now it's 4 a.m., and I've been up since midnight. I hope to go back to sleep for a bit around 6.
    Hope you can catch up on some sleep!

    patients who give me the guilt trip for something I can't do anything about. Big boss (I work in the dental field) is gone to Italy for 15 days and his associate will be in late next week. I have been taking calls and doing paperwork - and patients are calling for an appointment like NOW and I say he is on vacation - and they go crazy - can't believe he left, can you call him to ask him what he should do. Like wtf I am not calling Italy - I can book an appointment or find another dentist for you for emergency. They don't want another dentist looking at them and freak out - then you have to suffer and wait. Or come next week for his associate and they freak out again cause its not him looking at them.

    Trying to get 13% tax out of customer service at Walmart on 4 x BOGO free coupons (cat food) when they believe I only pay 1 tax on it not two according to their paperwork from head office.

    I mean seriously as a shopper themselves do they not pay attention to what is going on when they are shopping?

    that happened to me a few days ago...I was 1 day early to pick up my scripts..ONE DAY! they said nope....cant give i to ya. I knew i was early but still......been going there for 25 yrs, cut me some slack.
