BJ's Shopping Trip 5/21/2015

I needed to stop into BJ's to pick up some bread and bananas.  While there I looked at the tables we plan on getting for the yard sale and to my surprise there is a clipless coupon on them currently!  The coupon is for $5.00 and is good until May 28 so we have a little while to pick up some tables.  Hopefully this weekend we will be able to get them.  It does look like they raised the price on the tables slightly when they put the coupon on it, I hate when stores do that but still it is something we need to get and saving some money on them is better than nothing since we would be getting them regardless.

I was going to go through a normal checkout since I was using another free bread coupon and those need to be manually input since the max value exceeds the price of all of the Arnold breads in my local store.  The normal checkout was packed though and no one was at the self checkouts so I went there instead.  When I called over an associate to input my coupon he just overrode it instead of manually entering the price of the bread so it took the full $2.99 off!  So I got an extra $0.30 to help pay for the bananas.
