today i handed over all my coupons at once instead of one at a time like i usually do and didn't pay close attention while they were scanned. i guess the cheerios coupons must have stuck together.
$1 was taken off for the unreal candy and $3.99 for the herbal essences. again, i wasn't paying attention so i'm not sure if those amounts came off automatically or the cashier entered them.
i actually thought the pepsi was on sale for $.88, but now i realize that was a regional deal!
so i lost out on one of my $.50 cheerios coupons and paid $1.11 more than i expected for pepsi, but got $1.33 more off than i expected on the unreal and herbal essences coupons. so in the end it still worked out pretty well. :)
