Received $10 in Catalinas for purchasing $25 of GM products (the cereal and Hamburger Helper) according to the pre sale prices (paid $6.90 out of pocket after coupons)

*The cashier deducted the wrong amount for the free coupon. You would have thought she would have done it right considering she took a long time to figure it out (she has been working at this Shaws forever- she is just really slow at processing coupons).

**Again, the cashier made a mistake. I had a rain check for the ricotta cheese that was buy one get one free. After a few minutes of trying to figure it out she charged me $39.92 for the cheese. I realized this when I checked my receipt outside so I went to the service desk and was given $35 in cash back- I asked the woman if she was sure it was correct and she said yes. I now see, sitting here that she messed up too. Talk about not knowing your you know what from your elbow. I also had two .55 coupons for the cheese and a $1 off two coupon.

I decided to do the GM Catalina deal, and yes I got Hamburger Helper. It is whole grain so I suppose it isn't super bad. We are going to try it this week but I will most likely be donating the other two boxes. The Reeses cereal will be a special treat for my son and he'll only be able to have very infrequently. The Cinnamon Toast Crunch is a snack for my husband.

Oh, and don't mind my son standing to the right with an orange snorkel in his hand- he wanted to be in the picture too.
