The holy grail or saver shopping! I never go into this place without a coupon..except for the other day. I went to by my lovely mother a birthday present. As I was checking out I noticed I had no coupon! Rather than coming back and getting a price re-adjustment (which would actually never happen with 3 kids) I asked the check out lady is she had any coupons laying around. She said no, and against my non-persistent nature I asked if she could honor the lonely 15% coupon that was sitting on my kitchen table. She said of course!
So let this be a lesson, always ask! Whats the worst they could do, say no?
