It doesn't matter if you are black or white......

Okay family. I know many of you read the FREE poo post earlier today just as I did and were disappointed that you missed the sale so I decided nothing ventured, nothing gained. So off I went.. me and my binder to the 1st store and I went up and down the aisle until I saw her. Tthere she was all pretty as could be. What was it? I'm glad you asked?
It was the shampoo and conditioner STILL ON SALE Buy one Get one Free . OH my goodness... my heart began to beat so fast I thought I was the little drummer boy. I didn't know if I should run, laugh, or just plain Scream," I LOVE THE SISTERS OF SAVINGS" from the depth of my belly as loud as I could.
Then a manager walked over and said " Is there something I can help you with?" I looked at him with my BIG BRIGHT brown eyes and said... "Sir, you already have." I pulled out all 18 of the beautiful pink coupons that said Buy one get one free and I slowly place 36 VIVE shampoo and conditioners in my basket.
I was singing to myself that old Michael Jackson spiritual " It doesn't matter if you are black or white" that goes for the color of your skin or the color of the coupon. I kept thinking ANYONE can do this!!!then I raced over to those sponges and got those for free and of course I left with the scotch brite starter kit.
total receipt before coupons $183.10total due after coupons .06 centsthe manager just stood there like he had seen a ghost( I'm not sure why because I have done this type of transaction in his store before but, oh well)Then it happened, the unthinkable..... I went to the car and realized I had forgot to give him a .35 coupon how did that happen? Was it when I was watching that pretty scanner of his go down from 183.00 so fast a rabbit would have choked on his easter eggs lol so I guess they got me this time but there's always tomorrow. Hey I forgot I got the money back from the Alpo dog food so I WON didn't I?
Until Saturday!!! Go family GO!!! Of course I called my sister so I am sure she is out there doing the same thing right now and that's what this is all about.
Diann--- I got some shampoo for ya girl!!!My name is Cheryl Jackson and I am a Sister of Savings. ( the first step to recovery is to admit who you are)
I will post my other shopping adventure tomorrow
