So, last night I was kicking myself repeatedly because I missed my 60% savings mark on my Times Supermarket grocery trip. Well, I finally had time to fill in my savings calculator on excel because I ALWAYS need confirmation on my numbers.
And guess what! I SAVED 61% on my grocery bill last night! DOESNT IT FEEL GOOD TO PAY LESS?! YES IT DOES!! WOO WOO!!
Stores that have discontinued or close out items on their shelves that are NOT on ad or on "sale", do not recognize the full value of the product. So, they don't recognize YOUR true savings as a customer. I can only guess it's because the products are already written off so why measure their loss, right? "Just ring em up as is, thank you for buying our old stock, now get out."
Because I am adamant about getting my mission accomplished, I log ALL regular prices of the items I'm picking up. And boy am I glad I do!
This means fellow shoppers, that you cannot believe EVERYTHING you read on your receipt. Do your own math and calculate your own true savings. i win i win i win!! yay me!
