Feeling like I did something wrong...

Today I got to use the $8/2 Cover Girl coupons. I love them. Before I started couponing, all of my make-up was two years old and I never could afford to buy more. So I'm thrilled to be building a small stockpile of it.

Anyway, the coupon websites said that Cover Girl would be on sale at Rite Aid. I headed over to my local one and there were no sales marked. (I had not thought to look at the circular.) So, I picked up the items I would like to purchase and asked for a price check. They were all $3.99-4.69 with my wellness card. I thought that was great!

So the cashier started ringing them up, and for some reason they came up full price ($6-8.) So she decided to manually adjust the price down on each item. I used the coupons and walked out with eight products for $2.

Later, I looked at the circular and it said the sale here was BOGO 1/2 off. So really, I should have paid more than I did. Plus, I ended up with +UP rewards of $10.

I'm feeling guilty now. I try to be honest in my couponing. Did I do something wrong here?

You did not purposely mess up, so try not to feel bad.

Thanks, Lori. This is a quiet town and I go to that Rite Aid every Sunday and see the same cashier. I'm always the only customer in the store at that time, too. I don't want to get her in trouble and have her remember me every week. LOL.

Did you double check the little screen where you can see the prices? All of them should ring up at regular price, and the BOGO items come off at the end, but when your receipt is printed, each item's price is accurate. Does that make sense?

If it was an honest mistake, I wouldn't stress about it because you screwed up AND the cashier screwed up by not checking the circular.
