4/25/10 Shopping Trip (Money Maker!)

We had a busy weekend, but I was still able to do a bit of shopping along the way on my travels.  Being prepared ahead of time and having your list and coupons in order makes for a quick stop and really pays off, even on busy days.  In three transactions yesterday at two different Walgreens stores I came out $46.48 ahead of the game - it was a great day!  Here's the details:
