Target Trip 10/30

Purchased:
6 Dunkin Hines Cake Mix
2 Bags of Snickers
2 Bags of Nerds
1 Box of Gobstoppers
10 Bottles of Vitamin Water
1 Case of Powerade
2 Boxes Kashi Sunshine
2 Cans Hunts Tomato Sauce
6 Cans Hunts Tomato Paste
5 Glade Holiday Candles
5 Glade Holiday Candle Refills

12 various Keebler Cookies *

Special Deals were:
Buy 2 Keebler Cookie, Get 3rd Free
Buy Glade Holiday Candles, get $5 Gift Card
Buy 10 Vitamin Water, Get Case of Powerade Free

Also, I bought Halloween Candy today instead of Sunday because the coupons I had would make still cheaper than the 15% off it'll be on Sunday and they'd be out of the stuff we'll eat by the time the clearance exceeds the coupon.

Total Before Coupons $96.14
Total After Coupons $15.25
Received $10.00 in Gift Cards
Spent $15.32 in Gift Cards

Total Cost $5.25

Bottom of receipt says "YOU SAVED $132.39"

This was the first time I took advantage of the $0.05/reusable bag discount. Cashier asked, I told her we'd count the bags used at the end and I promptly forgot about it until the receipt began printing. Without blinking an eye she was able to refund the money, which was nice to know that I didn't have to trek to customer service for $0.35 (I wouldn't have).

She was such a nice cashier that I went back into the store to talk to the manager and fill out a comment card. This means SO MUCH to retail employees who normally only getting pointed out for complaints that I urge everyone if you have a really great experience or interaction with an employee somewhere, please SPEAK UP! Especially if you're the type that would complain if you received terrible or rude (or no) service somewhere. This goes beyond Target and covers anywhere you are shopping. /soapbox


* I was overcharged by one package of cookies (13 on receipt, only took 12), so that kinda sucked. But nobody's perfect, right? But for what it's worth the total cost should only have been $3.25.
