one way we save is to really look at those buy this and get that sales, last
week at meijer it was buy five items from this list and get another dollar
off at the register, limit two deals, so we went carefully through the list,
selected ten items, all of which were already on offer, got the extra dollar
off at the registtter, and because we had bought two of some on that list,
dh got three store dollars to use on next rip. Lee
