Hello, I am so excited to be sharing with you guys my first ever shopping haul! . I had gone on the Saturday but the cashier was being extremely difficult and refusing my price matches and coupons. I made sure I carefully made sure that everything followed their price match and coupon policy. Unfortunately, the CSM was not helpful at all and completely siding with the cashier. I left the store out of frustration without buying a single thing. It was discouraging to end my first attempt at a shopping trip like this. But the next day I was determined I was going to try again and have a great trip like you guys! Sorry for the long story, but this is everything I managed to get:
