Total Out Of Pocket: $12.24

I know its not a very good photo but here is what I got today at Albertsons and Safeway for a total of $12.24!!

2 different transactions at Albertsons, and I think I have a favorite Albies Cashier because I had to redo my original plan when it was discovered at the checkstand that they were out of the Tuna pouches that are on sale this week ( I had the wrong size) that are part of the "Buy 10 items get $5.00 off" promo. She was really nice and let me void the whole order so I could rethink it and then when I got it figured out again and went back to her check stand she gave me the $1.00 OYNO that had printed out for the Tuna, even though I didn't buy it. How cool is that? Way cool me thinks. And, to top it off, I was given another weekly sales flyer so I had 5 usable Double coupons for 1 transaction.

Ok, here goes!

So then, I still had 3 Doublers left and since the cashier had been so nice, (we had a very pleasant chat while she was ringing up my order), I asked her if it was alright for me to take my stuff out to the car and then come back in to use the remaining doublers and she was (again) so very nice and cool and she said that she wasn't actually aware of there being any limit on how many transactions you could do in a day or a store with the doublers. Good to know info.
