I shop with coupons. I'm not talking about getting a percentage discount in the mail for Kohl's. I spend time every week looking at certain websites and clipping coupons to get the best deals on food and home products. I do this because we like to eat and Lucas can eat the equivalency of 2-3 people.
So today at the grocery store the cashier tries scanning one of my $5 coupons and it won't ring up. He looks at me and says "It won't scan" and tries to give it back to me. It should have gone through because the coupon before it was exactly the same. So I say "I don't know why it won't." His reply is "Me either." Then he looks at it and says "Oh, today is the 16th, it expired today." Well now, if the expiration date is the 16th, it means it is still good today. As if that really matters though, Cubs accepts coupons that are up to 3 months expired. So then I start schooling him on their coupon policy and finally he calls his manager over to fix it. I should have known something like that would happen when he was asking me what the red onion and roma tomatoes were.
It reminded me of the time I was at the Pita Pit and the worker asked if mayo and mayonnaise were the same thing. Seriously?
