And lesson be learned about how valuable those coupons are. Point in fact - last night I went to Bed Bath & Beyond with a 20% coupon. I was going to buy a cupcake stand for $15.99, less the coupon. I had a 50% off coupon for Michael's, so I walked over there first to see the price. They actually charged $29.95 for the same stand. If I had used the 50% off, it would have been the 15.99 (roughly). So, it was a better deal to use the 20% off at the first store. And it also goes to show you the mark up when the store expects that folks will wait for the 50% off sales, or use their coupons. At Michaels, or Joann's, NEVER buy something unless you are using a coupon or it's marked at 40-50% off!!!
