I've requested so many Kotex products that I don't know which one this is!

I got a liner, pad, tampon and $1/1 U by Kotex product.

I thought I had calculated it right, but I had to throw in those M&Ms as filler purchases. I should've just had her take off that last $3EB and give it back to me and pay a little more OOP rather than spend $1 on something I don't need and really shouldn't be buying. Lesson learned.

After going to 2 CVS stores, I finally went to one downtown that had (almost) everything I wanted. They didn't have the freebie candy corn, but I probably shouldn't have so much concentrated sugar anyways...

The woman at the register was kind of lame. She wasn't going to let me use an internet printable and then she wasn't going to let me use 2 EB in one transaction. I've never heard of that one before. Luckily she was easily persuaded and I remained calm the entire time.

I got Snikiddy Baked Fries in the mail today. I don't remember requesting these, but maybe it was from this? All I know is that I'm excited to pack the 2 snack sized bags in my lunch!
