Money maker/ Another rantbrag

[Ellen Cardinal]

A rant/brag here.
There is this great SDM which always has items stocked but the summer cashiers are difficult to deal with sometime. I went in during my lunch break to get some products including Huggies & Pampers wipes @ $2.99 and Physicians Formula @30% off. None of the items rang up at the advertised prices. The physformula prices were on the shelves and the cashier agreed to adjust that but refused to adjust the wipes prices even though I showed her the exact items in their flyer and she refused to SCOP. I left with just a few items. I came back after work and bought my cosmetics through the beauty counter who quickly checked and SCOPed the items after checking that it wasn't because of today's prices. I did a separate transactions with her for the wipes and bought some gum in order to get points.

Old spice hair product on clearance @ $3.77 - $0.75 coupon - $0.75 CO51

Also went to a Food basics farther away because the closest one to me doesn't accept driscoll coupons and got 12 boxes of strawberries for under $8. (Can't wait to go back on Tuesday and combine this with my student discount)

Why should it have rang at $2.99? I didn't see the pampers sale at Sdm this week. Didn't their sale end Friday? Or were you shopping in Thursday?

[Ellen Cardinal]

@ Lisa I went shopping Friday night. Did it the flyer end Thursday? I didn't look at the dates closely this week. said the sale was still active and I went with that. Oops. My bad.

@Shwa Girl
Lol. I work and study part-time. Im just taking a summer course that is almost over but I am hoping to start a masters course in Jan but that depends on my finances so anytime I can find a good deal is awesome.

great!
hope you can get a good deal on paying for your master's degree too
look for every bursary or scholarship you can
maybe your employer or your union can help--> they offer money too

no you're totally right.. i keep confusing sdm as having a different flyer start .. i sent hubby to pick up wipes on the friday (day before) they went on sale and he got there to tell me they werent on sale until the following day.. their sales start saturday then.. i digress.. Great shops..
