My scratch off dot is on the back cover of the booklet for August 15-28. Lower half of page is listed as preferred customer surprise savings for August 20-22. My dot is 40% off.
I walk into the store with a prepared list of what I need and what I want. Since the store is 60 miles from us, I spend quite a bit of time planning my purchases carefully.
More than once, cashier on duty has stated that I was a "careful" shopper. You should intrepret that as I only got sale items, used all my coupons, and paid about 1/2 price fot the purchAses.
I call it resourcefulness!! :-)
