Default It's like playing poker....

When I was checking out this week one of my total's was over $100 and I got it down to under 50 cents. I told my cashier, "It's like playing poker!", and she told me ..... "It's like playing poker and you're winning every hand!".

Since May, but when you have people like Lucy and all you other wonderful people, it doesn't take long to learn the ropes.

Thank you all!

My one friend and I were talking about having a poker party with our coupon loot. Just like that.... I'll raise you a bag of halls......or even with coupons themselves, I'll see your $3 stack of coupons, and raise it to $4.
