Ever have one of those days where you should have just stayed in bed? Well, I tried that (staying in bed) but Mom drug me out at noon.
Went into town with Dad today. Mom gave us some coupons to stop by at Safeway. After looking at them a minute, found out that you had to buy 3 of the items to get the sale price. So that canceled out a few things that we didn't need that much of. Then I noticed more fine print that said you had to get 10 dollars worth of groceries for the prices to work. So we bought a few more things. Then when we were at the register, things were rung up, then the coupons were scanned...the sale doesn't start until tomorrow *sigh* That should be strike 3. So the lady x'ed the things out. Total came up to 21 bucks. Dad forgot to scan through his club card, so we got 9 bucks back after that.
Then we went to Dominoes and stopped at the park to feed the seagulls. Found our fav. bird that we hadn't seen for like 3 months (yay!) which is hard when there are like 100+ there. So that all went normal. Then we went tothe gas station, pulled in and Dad went to pay. Turns out, the lady in front of us had had a hole in her gas tank, fixed it with a screw, filled up her tank, and it leaked everywhere, so we were asked to move to another pump.
Then we were about halfway home and trying to account for all of the money we had spent. Turns out, the person at Safeway hadn't given us back the change from fromthe 40 bucks Dad had handed her....He gave her 40 for the 21 bucks, then was only given back the 9 for the club card discount. He just got through calling CS and they need to balance the registers, but it looks like we should be getting that back.
On the way home, a horse trailer pulled out in front of us (Hello! Big red car here!), it rained a lot...yeah.
Very frustrating day. Bit paranoid about what else could go wrong ^.^
also, the auto complete for my tags doesn't work on this journal.
