Do you ever have one of those days?

When you mess up all kinds of deals?

I screwed up FOUR deals at GE today!

First of all, I went all the way to the store and forgot my wallet so I had to go back home. Clearly this threw off my bargain mojo because here are my blonde moments (all of which occured at checkout):

- I picked up BOGO Ball Park hot dogs instead of Oscar Mayer (for which I had coupons)

- Since I didn't get Oscar Mayers, the system promptly kicked out my free Wheat Thins coupon

- I accidently gave a July P&G Gillette Satin Care coupon instead of the new August one. The coupon nazi of a cashier couldn't just hand it back like I had made an honest mistake, she made a huge deal out of me trying to swindle her with an expired. To her credit, she already had to give me back the Oscar Mayer and Wheat Thins coupon, so I know I looked like a real jerk already.

- I bought 2 Soft Soap body washes and a Colgate toothpaste, expecting to get the $3 cat. I did get a two cats but, neither of which was a $3 oyno! And I didn't realize this until I was in the car.

So, I could've saved over $6 in coupons I couldn't use and should've gotten a $3 oyno cat! I'm too embarrased to even bother with returns.



I was going to make a CVS run after that, but I just went home!
