It's been over a year.......

Since I have posted here. And I'm sure no one is surprised......what am I talking about? I'm sure no one has even looked at this blog in more than a year. I'm still couponing & snatching up as many bargains as possible. I will try & post my recent trip to Kroger later.

Speaking of which......there is something about that trip bothering me. I had several transactions (as usual) and I used the self checkout for my first 2transactions. Took those items to the car and came back in to do a few more transactions. When I was ready to check out the self checkout lady sent me to lane 7 which was closed and called the manager & a woman that was in the office to check me out & bag my items. There was also a regular checkout lane open but apparently the manager wanted to check out my purchases himself. I had 4 transactions this time. The manager looked over all my coupons and "inspected" them and double checked on his screen that I bought what was on the coupon. It just made me feel really uncomfortable, like I was doing something wrong. When in fact I was following all the rules & just trying to save my family money. My Kroger is normally very coupon friendly so I'm not sure what was going on today but it bothers me just a tad. But in the end I know that I was following all the rules so I guess all is good.
