There were a couple of things worth picking up at Acme this week – I love taking iced tea to work and chocolate milk always tops my list for dessert choices. :) Mama Cheaps is a salad fiend and loves her FF Caesar Italian dressing. Last but not least – brownie mix! We have about 15 summer BBQs to attend and brownies are always our go-to take-along dessert… so we usually pick them up when they are free.
It wasn’t until I got to the registers at Acme that I realized the iced tea coupons were do not double. Bummer! But, as it turned out, I ended up getting $.31 overage on all 10 brownies (on sale $.49/each and I had $.40/1 coupons that all doubled to $.80). So it all worked out pretty close to what I figured.
