Shopping w/nephew for Starbucks Chocolate
My nephews came in town one is 12 and the other 14. Anyway the 12 year old wanted to go "Power Shopping"!! with me yesterday. I warned him it would be crazy and there would be coupons flying all over the place since a lot of them expired today. Well he's a trooper and said he could handle it!! We went to Wags to do the Robitussin deal - spent $11.00 got $15.00 back. He was grinning from ear to ear!! Anyway we spent $10.00 of it on only the bargains, but I really wanted the Starbucks Chocolate Truffles for $1.00 after easysaver Qand $1man Q. We checked the expiration dates, since I wanted to use them for Valentines day, and they all were expired in October 2008. So we went to another Wags and I went to ladies room and left my nephew by the Starbucks and told him - you know the drill - look at the expiration dates and I will be right back. Well, I get back and he is proudly holding 2 boxes and I see the manager and another employee pulling them all off the shelf. He was able to find me 2 boxes that were good till Aug 2009!! Evidently the employee saw this kid plowing through this fancy chocolate and wanted to know what was going on and he told her - did you know all this stuff is expired!!!!!!!!!
We had an awesome day @ Wags and CVS hitting all the bargains and using coupons. Teaching my nephew a few things about shopping and saving money - Priceless!!!!!!
