I knew better

Today we were out running errands and we were close to a Wal-mart and it was hot and I just wanted to be done shopping, but I had to buy some things for a barbecue and I was in desperate need of diapers so I figured, whatever I will just run into wal-mart and grab the necessities and just go home. I am blaming this thinking on the 110 degree weather outside!! So we go in and immediately I am regretting the decision as I am looking at the produce and its prices which were all slightly higher and then the hamburger patties that were a dollar higher and so on and so forth. Now this isn't typically a big deal because I always take my ads with me when I go shopping but I forgot!!! I know better than to go shopping without the ads because then you have to pay wal-mart's price and not the super low discounted prices of items that are on sale at other stores :(. The good news is that I did have my coupons with me and therefore I saved about $30.00. The savings would have been much higher if I had brought my albertsons and smiths ads with me so heed my advice, learn from my mistakes and NEVER go shopping without your ads!
