I did not take a picture for you of my first Super Doubles ^[1] trip, because it was a catastrophe.  Things rang up wrong.  Items didn’t scan, and I ended up only saving about 50%.

On top of that, my receipt was messed up and I figured out that I underpaid by $3.00 (returning coupon item issues).  So, I stopped by that Lowes Foods on my way home from work and the service desk let me pay them that $3 back.  I felt better and not guilty.  I figure if I would argue for an error in the store’s favor, I had better pay up an error in my favor.

Tonight’s trip:

I have to say it was no less adventurous.  They were out of the number 1 thing I wanted, which were the eOffers Romaine hearts!

I picked up the cat litter because we are totally out and I am brand loyal.  However, my store had a $10 off $50 purchase coupon for their grand opening.  So I figured if I found $40 in deals, I would snag a cat litter for free.

I am out of practice with my counting.  If they had the Romaine hearts, I would have been close and could have grabbed an item at the checkout to get my OOP over $50.

After coupons, my total was $42.xx.  I started to put my$10/$50 purchase coupon away, when my cashier notices and says, “It might work.”  My total was WAY over $50 before coupons, but I think that the coupon was supposed to be after coupons and discounts.

Before I can blink, he takes it and scans it, and of course, it does work. Lowes Foods is just intent on giving me extra discounts this week.

OOP: $32.xx

Saved: $59.xx
