Any guesses as to what I paid the cashier?
Come on - just guess.
Seriously.
I mean - the cashier told me, *congratulations* and he was somewhat in awe. I've never had a cashier tell me congratulations. And you know what? I kinda liked it. I said, thanks - and I was grinning ear to ear. I was so stoked.
You want to know the cost, don't you?
It's my new record. I saved 98% off my bill.
Cost?
47 cents
47 CENTS! I mean - a candy bar costs more than that!
I paid cash.

Nice! I paid $.42 for a dress one time at Meier & Frank (now Macy's). It was two years old so it was "obsolete". I actually didn't have any money on me at all and so I charged it on my store account. I should have just gone out and picked up nine pop cans from the side of the road! LOL! :D

Oh, I am so envious. We just don't have those kinds of deals, coupons, and savings in Canada. At least not in my neck of the woods. Congratulations indeed!

Is this still from the Grocery Game? If so, I am signing up. I'm gonna need to save on my groceries now! :D And if this is how you do it, you've sold me for sure.
