My Shopping Trip: ShopRite
Believe it or not, I was in need of paper plates and gallon size storage bags. And, I couldn’t resist the free Glade Expressions Refills. For the Hefty, I decided to just throw in another Hefty Plate even though I couldn’t use a coupon on it. I wanted to do the Hefty Mail in Rebate right away and didn’t want to have to make another trip. Plus, I was also afraid I wouldn’t make the $40 needed to use the super sweet $5/$40 coupon I received in the mail as a new homeowner. Thank You ShopRite! 🙂
