My Shopping Trip: Pathmark
Okay, okay, I’m addicted to this deal at Pathmark this week. I think this might be my last trip though. For this trip I just tried to come up with a combo to use up the rest of my coupons and get a couple of items I wanted like the Hellmann’s and the Butter. Such a bummer, but I missed printing the $0.75/1 Hellmann’s coupon on Recyclebank. That will teach me for waiting too long. Instead, I used the coupon from the insert and, although the $0.75/1 coupons would have made this trip free, I can’t complain about paying $2. I have hardly spent any money on this amazing deal this week and my stockpile shelves are packed.
I think it’s time for Grandma Marie to make a trip to my house for some shopping 😉
