Week 8 Walmart

This week, I did not want to spend my time with couponing, sales figuring, and shopping because my husband has a rare weekend off.

AND IT 'IS' Supposed to be beautiful.  (thinking fishing here with the boys)

So, I went to WalMart to shop.  Needless to say Zephyr was in love with the idea of shopping and had his allowance. Yes, I make my 5 year old work for toys. ROFL

But, since during ring out he was wanting to play with said toy and eat.  I did not watch my cashier check us as closely as I normally do --- I got the total and wrote the check but felt something was wrong.

Got home and checked my tape. YUP  I had a $16.24 over charge.  I found it right away.  My ALL detergent was supposed to ring up @ $5.97 less coupons but rang up instead @ $8.97 that is a $16+ mistake.  Then I called the manager immediately.  Miss Dehlia knew exactly what I was talking about seems they are restocking and pricing that aisle. 

Bless her heart, she said bring in your reciept with those items circled, we will refund you and as a gift a $10 gift card will be there when you make it back into town.  Thanks for being a loyal customer. WHOOOP WHOOOP

Our grocey bill with this mistake this week was: $112.96

(NO, ZEPHYR'S TOY was not included in our grocery bill.  He has an allowance remember?)

STORE SAVINGS $7.96
Coupons $42.90
Cash Register Tape Total $112.96 (with mistake)
Adjusted price/gift card $86.72


Total left for the year $3,530.92



AGAIN thank you Ms. Delihia, YOU ROCK and Wal-Mart scores an excellent ten chicken pecks for customer service.
 
(INCASE, I go over I have not added my gift cards, surveys, rebates, and other earning into my annual bill.  Total so far, is $343.91 not counting coupons and sale savings.)
