Yesterday our supermarket had buy2/get one free on 2 liter bottles of soda (my DH and my weakness- caffeine free Diet Coke) AND it turned out that the cashier told me that there was a promo as well with this-- so I also got 2 free bags of low fat (my choice) of Lays kettle potato chips. No, we did not need those. But FREE is my middle name!

jym-was this Kroger or Publix? We were out of town this weekend so I never looked at the sale pages. My husband can go through a liter of caffeine free Diet Coke in one day! Hope you didn’t buy the store out. :))

Publix!

I bought at the one near my office, so you should be fine!! But I think today may be the last day! So-- run!!! (or get a raincheck) Don’t forget the free chips!

I will be heading to the Woodlawn location after work today!

Hope they still had the soda in stock!! (and the chips :wink:

I bought new china for our lake. We often have up to 20 people, so I bought 20 4 piece place settings of Dansk Christianshavn! $12.49 a place setting !! I was happy. Got it at Belk online.

@silverlady, sounds lovely and like you got an amazing deal!

silverlady, you did get an amazing deal! congrats!

Off topic but, I know if I put an @ before a member’s name it would become blue (a link) but why would I want to do that? (I really need to get with the times
) I just noticed @HImom did that. Ooo, mine isn’t highlighted. So, follow up question: if I learn the why and then understand that I should, how does one actually make it a live link? :-S

OK, edited a second time to say that it became a live link after I saved my comment so disregard the second part of my question!

Great price @silverlady ! Looks like it’s on sale for $35 now.

@collage1 - A message will be sent to the user if @ is used. This could be used to let them know you are responding to something they wrote, or to prompt them to reply to something you wrote.

@silverlady, I have that exact pattern and really love it. I have been using them for years and they still look like new. Great price you paid.

@SnLMom, I too thought the system would send a message to the user. However, I have never received such message. Where would I see the message that tells me someone had mentioned me?

In the notifications preference, you need to check the box that you want a notification sent to you that your name has been mentioned.

Nice buy, silverlady!

@SnLMom, thank you!

My good buy of the day - a brand new Burberry London cashmere/wool blend pea coat for kiddo for a fraction of what it was selling for when it quickly sold out. I violated a no shopping in Feb. rule, but the coat would have disappeared!

Wow, the price on the Dansk Christianshavn did go up! I can’t believe that I got such a good deal. My next choice for the lake would have been over $1000.

LLBean has an extra 20% off sale items today only. I haven’t had the time to peruse the items so maybe you can all shop there so that by the time I get around to it, I’ll save MORE money because there won’t be anything to spend $$ on! (I sometimes like some of their outerwear pieces and athletic wear).

Not much action on this thread lately
My cheap but very light and comfortable purse finally gave it up and I wanted something cute for spring anyway so off to the thrift stores I went. I found a brand new Bass peach color cross-body bag for $6, with 30% off for “senior day”. I also found three pair of capris in my new size for an upcoming trip south, three early spring tops and two books. The grand total for all of it was $32. Not bad.

Also dormify.com has some killer prices on sheets, duvet covers, etc. I got D two pair of 100% cotton sheets and a duvet cover for $10 each.

Wow–sounds like you got some amazing deals! We are cutting back on buying linens at this time. We have enough and will have to toss before buying more. M

Have a great trip with your new gear!
