Well it was the first day of Super Double Coupons at Meijer. I went into work extra early today (and will probably continue to do so the rest of this week) so I could get stuff done and still have time for some shopping. It’s extra pressure since we’ll be leaving on Thursday, so I only have 3 days to cram in all the super doublage.
I went this afternoon and the cashier that I picked – it was his first day on the job. I really felt bad for him. The problem with the during work Meijer run is that there is less choice in cashiers – lots of old folks. The good news about getting a rookie is that he pretty much just did what I told him :-). I did tell him that after he gets done with me then it’s all easy from then on. I felt bad for the lady behind me too. I told her when she pulled up that she might want to consider another line, but she said that she didn’t mind. She even seemed not annoyed when I was done (which took a full 25 minutes), so that was nice.
I will publish a full report when I am done, but the 2 orders from this afternoon were a gross total of $147.85 for -$6.89
