This is a great trip by Reader X, it is her second time being featured so I am gonna pick on her a little bit. I just want to take the opportunity to show you how important it is to look closely at the wording on the packages. Everything in her trip looks great with the exception of 2 small issues. The Renuzit is the “Super Odor Killer” not “Super Odor Neutralizer”. Now I am not going to freak out because their is no difference in price and the names are very close, I’m sure it was an honest mistake. The second is that I encourage people not to remove coupons from one store to use at another. I know for a fact the vendors don’t care, they just want their product moved. Since you price matched them to the same store that you got the blinkie coupon from, you might as well have just picked them up at that time. Reader X, I hope you are okay with a bit of correction. I am here to help people save money, share deals and to learn as well. Everything else ROCKS, and overall you did great. Here it is in her own words:

Its become pretty usual for a manager to be called over
when I check out, but the cashier and the manager were both
SOO nice! The manager asked me where I got my .55cent off
blinkies for the Pepsi Max (which by the way, I found at
Dominicks!)
