A Gallon of Milk For 2 Cents
So, we only paid 2 cents (that's right, $0.02) for a gallon of milk. How you aske? Well, I'll tell you how!
We (SteFanie and I) went to the grocery store and low and behold we saw a sign...
That's right, the "Mystery Coupon" for the day was that you could buy 1/2 gallon for $.01 by purchaseing $10 or more. Well, SteFanie and I took advantage of our martial status and split up to make separate purchases. We had codes we could give eachother if we saw eachother in the store. Nobody could know that we knew eachother, or they'd get wise and make us buy our items together, causing us to only get one half-gallon of milk instead of two.
It worked out and we got two half-gallons for $.01 each :)
The only thing mysterious about the "Mystery Coupon" is why it is called "Mystery Coupon". But I don't ask such silly questions anymore.
