Bargain Momma!
I am not much on couponing because I do not understand how people save so much money. I have cut coupons but saving a few cents on something I must buy 2 or 3 of when I only need 1, does not seem that cost efficient to me. I guess I need a better explanation of it, or Couponing for Dummies. On one of my mom blogs someone had posted a table set online at JCPenny's for $15. They said it should say $150, it was a typo error. In all actuality it should have said $80, so that is a pretty weird typo error. Anyways, I bought one thinking I couldn't beat the price. I have always wanted a kid table so I didn't have to have high chairs and my regular table only has 4 chairs. So I jumped on the deal, thinking that they would have to honor it. Well I never heard anything else other than it was delayed on shipping, which I think thousands of people tried to buy the typo mistaken table. Then almost a week later, I received an email stating they were sorry for the incorrect price but they ran out of the tables and I was reimbursed plus given a online only $50 gift card. Now I am no mathematician but I just got a free $50 to spend, I think I should go on Extreme Couponing with that success story!! I liked the table, but didn't need it, so it was a win win for me. Now I must find something to buy with my new gift card! Post and Carry on with the rest of your day.
