Deals of the Week 10/7

Lastnight, I went to do some shopping and made sure I picked up my FREE bags of Green giant Steamers. It was so fun to put 4 bags of veggies in my chart and say to my husband, these are free! He just loves that I am shopping this way now, can you blame him?! My only regret is that I only had four coupons. I am in the process of ordering another five pack of papers so we can have 9 coupons, one for each person in our family. It will be so nice to get nine free items each time. But anyway, I hand my coupons to the cashier and she says, "How much did you say the veggies where?" I said, "99 cents", she says "Oh, I'm sorry, we can only give you 99 cents off these with this $1.00 coupon, we can't pay you the extra pennny". Now first off, I was under the understanding that Walmart would pay overages, but I do know that it is at their discretion. It might depend on the cashier, or the manager that night or whatever. Have any of you had this happen at Walmart or other stores? Anyway, back to my story, I couldn't resist giving her a hard time, so I said, "You really won't give me that extra penny?" now, I've been told that I have a dry sence of humor at times and it is hard to tell if I am serious or not. She looks at me like....is this woman for real? Then my poor embarrassed husband says, "You can reach across the counter and slap her if you want". So I say, "Hey, ever penny counts......but at last, I guess FREE is good enough......sigh.........
