Rite Aid Shopping Trip 2/21/2015

Due to the weather not cooperating (reasons why I do not miss New York), I had to wait until Saturday again this week to do a majority of my shopping.  Some days the snow was not too bad but with the temperatures so low I did not want to risk taking little peanut out and getting sick again.

Thankfully I was able to find all the items I wanted to get but I had to do quite a few transactions to make it all work out properly and even then I messed up a bit at the end.  I went to three different stores, did eight transactions, and used four different cards.
