    I like!!

    I am bracing myself for Wolf Chili to be out of stock. If that is the case I will not spend more just to get the Free item. I might as well just forget the 10/10 get the 11th free if I don't actually need the stuff.

    Yeah, if the Wolf Chili is out of stock then I'll move on to something else in my first order (probably move Sierra Mist up in it's place from transaction #2).

    I know the 5% food discount is not going to amount to much (but every lit bit helps!). Am curious as to how they take off the 5%. Also will my SeaPak purchases count as seafood? My plan is once I have everything rang up, the first thing I'm going to do is enter my mPerks code, then scan the $4.50 Catalina, then scan my coupons and hand over the MealBox Qs last. I can understand being off a few cents here and there but I don't expect to be much more than $25 on both orders. I'm guessing at P.F. Chang's price... it might be $5.99 each which would be an even better deal.

    Monica will agree with me, but I am no fan of MPerks. I find it unreliable, and unpredictable. It was doing some funky readjusting on my transactions yesterday. I am not sure what discount I got, and to a couponer that is a nightmare!!

    Tuh!! The girls at my service desk always look at me like I have 4 heads. Then I feel stupid when the adjustment is only like 40 cents or something. I am glad you have good CSMs but I don't at my store...

    That's why I always try to be as precise as possible with my shopping lists. I know that on tomorrow's trip I will have $5.75 in mPerks and $3 in Mealbox Qs. Every penny counts!
