Publix Trip 12/3/08

Yesterday I had to stop by Kroger on the way home from a club Christmas party to pick up some needed treats for my son to take to school this morning. Normally I would have baked something, but just ran out of time. I was really bummed checking out because I was paying full price. The only lanes open at 10:30 at night were the self checkout which I generally don't use. I just happened to glance down before I left and saw this awesome catalina for $4 off of Viva paper towels that someone had thrown away. I took it hoping I could find a deal eventually...and guess what? Viva paper towels were on sale at Publix and they take Kroger catalinas! Now I don't feel so bad about paying full price.
