OOP $32.99 Retail $ 119 something couldn't remember exact was so excited. Had a great cashier who was amazed and wanted to know how to get coupons Thank you all so much--now hubby likes it when I say I'm going shopping; When I come home now he says, "So how much did you save?" Before he asks how much I spent. I'm so addicted.

So glad you had a great experience!!! Good for you! You are right it is so 50/50 these days, or maybe more 80/20 (with 80 being the bad experiences grrrr!). You got some GREAT deals though way to go!

I think that people expect coupons to not be a problem, so when all goes as expected they don't say much. Somtimes someone finds a cashier that pushes everything through (maybe even some that shouldn't go) or a cashier that gets excited for them and they post here. But most the the cashier stories you will read about are rants about the exceptional bad or uneducated cashier encounters. In my experience the transactions are more like 90/10, with 90% good. I know that some stores or areas have bad experiences more often than others.

Great trip!
