Default Last nights runs....

No produce this week. Will see it next week, though, for sure. Only downer of the night was at the 2nd WAGs, the manager insisted on taking the Bandaid Q as per his store manager. The guy is notoriously Q retarded so I was not suprised. Luckily, I had extras.

"Made" $25.50(Did not add gift card total onto total OOP as I did not have to pay for the gift card so I paid nothing OOP aside from the RRs & coupons I used.) Also, I did 13 transactions total split up between two stores.

Total Savings $102. 95


End Summary - Total OOP $1.68 - Total Savings $369.79 - approximate % saved 99.5%

Thanks.

I've been snagging a bunch lately. A whole bucket of them sitting there just for me it seems.

Thirteen transactions total split up between two stores.

I just cannot get into those kinds of treats. They all remind me of Peeps which I detest.

They have that exclusion now, but initially did not. They just said good on any Robitussin formula product(something to that effect). Trust me the manager in the 2nd store would have caught it if I couldn't use it. Should just bring the man a magnifying glass to help with his inspection process.

Honestly, I was happy to find any as the stores closest to me have been out since the 1st week & the Qs I had expire today.

Local Jewel had them listed at $1 each when you bought 10 of them.
