Here's the details:

I went to Weis (a local grocery store), loaded up my cart and then made the poor cashier do five consecutive transactions for me. (I got the information to pull this off from one of my new favorite blogs For the Mammas.)

Transaction #1

3 Corn Flakes @ $2 each

Total: $20

But I did use a set of $10 and $7 coupons from a previous transaction (you can only use one at a time)

Amount paid: $3

Avg price : $.25/box


Transaction #3:

2 Cottonelle 12 double roll @ 4.99 each
4 Life cereals @ 7.50 total

• Side note: there was a sign posted 4/$8 AND a sign posted 4/$10. The first cereal scanned at the higher price, so I made a fuss. My awesome cashier, Chris called over the manager. The others scanned for the higher price, too, so I got one of them free. A bonus savings of $.50!
