So after the planetarium tonight, I run into CVS. I couldn't find the $11.99 wrinkle serum but I still wanted to grab some Soy Joy bars for Bella. I had only brought a few couples in, so I bought 10 bars. I get up to the counter and I have five B1G1 coupons and one $2/10. The cashier starts scanning before I can even hand my CVS card to her so they rang up as $1.29 each. Then she scans my card and $7.90 come off. My total is now $5 and she scans the first B1G1 coupon... and enters it as $1.29! I said "no they are only $0.50" and she said "yeah but it isn't entered that way so I have to take the full amount off." So she scans 3 of them and then the $2 off coupon and she says "oh wait, now you're $0.87 in the negative, you need to buy something else." So I grab two packs of Mentos (which is ok because it's one of the only candies my boys can eat) and my new total is $0.71. Then she hands me 2 of my B1G1 coupons back because she didn't even use them! So I was expecting to pay $0.50 for 10 Soy Joy bars, and I ended up paying $0.71 and getting two packs of Mentos as well. Not bad! I didn't lose or earn ECBs.

see! that's the way my last transaction went down at CVS, I had no clue what she was doing but she was doing as she was told by her MANAGER.. I guess I made out on the deal but seriously.. how many times have they not scanned a coupon and we didn't notice until we got out to the car or got home. it all comes out in the wash as they say! lol!
How's the Soyjoy? I'm afraid to try it out unless I know which flavor is the best.I just read some people are not crazy about it. What dya think?
*shaking my head* sometimes I dont understand how CVS's registers work. But I'm always happy when it is in my favor!
I like the Mango Coconut. Hubby likes the strawberry. I did the same transaction today! Thanks for the reminder to get myself to CVS. : )
