I usually leave my reading glasses at home and even if I have them, I always feel like I'm taking a math test.<br /><br />Jimmy Jimmy's Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03041064932971014718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901847648242872428.post-60855738672306209232014-02-23T17:46:55.174-05:002014-02-23T17:46:55.174-05:00I agree as well.

I keep a list of regular prices for items I regularly buy and at what store I buy them.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08506026496063245730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901847648242872428.post-67658900201418847892014-02-17T15:03:23.295-05:002014-02-17T15:03:23.295-05:00Dear Rose, Hope all is well and you are feeling be...Dear Rose, Hope all is well and you are feeling better.<br />Enjoy the sunshine.

I would never buy toothpaste, food or lotion there or anything that goes into the body or the skin!<br /><br />Deby<br /><br />Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04718940729278446028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901847648242872428.post-82507500282508646292014-02-10T17:27:38.025-05:002014-02-10T17:27:38.025-05:00Dear Rose, You do have to look at the size and the...Dear Rose, You do have to look at the size and the ounces. Not everything is a bargain. <br />I use my local food store and watch the flier closely.<br />I really watch every penny! lol<br />I don't like the coupons either simply because most often they tell you to buy 3 of the item!! This is not a bargain any longer.<br />I find coupons usually cause people to buy what they really do not need.<br />I simply watch the prices and ounces.<br />Blessings dear.

Makes a big difference. I like it that many stores have a small note showing the price per ounce and sometimes surprises me that the larger ones are actually higher. The promoters KNOW that many folks assume larger is cheaper, but not always anymore.<br /><br />Love from Peace River...jack69https://www.blogger.com/profile/12884137603402812926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901847648242872428.post-91123636737673017702014-02-10T08:06:16.123-05:002014-02-10T08:06:16.123-05:00I never buy cleaning products from the dollar stor...I never buy cleaning products from the dollar store.
