Friday $avings: Watch the Register
This week I offer a simple story of how I saved over $15 by paying attention to what the cashier was ringing up. I had snagged five boxes of fresh raspberries (normally $3.98/box) for $0.99/each. They had those lovely green "Managers special" stickers on the top, but they still had the original bar codes on the bottom. I caught the cashier at box #4 - all being rung up for $3.98 rather than $0.99! I nicely pointed it out to her and explained that they were $0.99/each - see the big green sticker? :-)
Moral of the story - always pay attention to how things are ringing up. Just because they have a sticker on them does not mean that they will be rung up correctly.

C.S. Lewis once said, “You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream." Dream BIG. After going "there and back again," The Hubs & I have created a home that is full of books, stimulating conversation, and the laughter of our five kids. We have been the recipients of Amazing Grace, and our life goals can be summed up in four words: Love God, love people.
