scuze me, ms. bunny - we're neighbors and so I was wondering, is the "up north" Pick N Save ad that you were shopping this week?
Did you see the yoplus that is BOGO? You can use a q on the BO and the GO, BTW, which would make it like .45 for 2 packs of yummy yoplus!
Great job on your trip, like others said you will get EVEN BETTER quickly and get those totals down even more!!!!
(and at least you didn't say "go vikings" LOL!!)

Been using coupons a long time and I still like to see just how low I can go...and i really love when the pepole behind me are rolling their eyes and all that crap and my bill drops $100 or more because of my coupons and I have twice as much as they do and they pay twice as much as I do...got to love that FREE stuff its always better whne its free
