Publix & Kroger

I did not take any pics because I was a little disappointed. This week was a losing week for me. One cashier kept skipping coupons, I corrected the few I caught but she still missed one. Another cashier could not accept one of my coupons so:

CVS 8/23

Today went terribly wrong! I had to revamp my order in the 1st store...when I got to the register I was short on my $5/$25 so I piled candy bars on the counter to reach $25. When I got in the car I realized I purchased the WRONG carefree liners! So I have to return them and received $3.40 back. I had planned 2 transactions but ended up going to three different store to find items. I did not get the Lipton teas(2), glade sense and spray(2), papermate pen(2), or the comp notebooks(2). However I did gain 7 candybars!
