Pet Supermarket e-mail coupons

I will go buy a 40 lb bag of dog food at Pet Supermarket. After I get home, I will check my e-mail and discover that Pet Supermarket has just sent me a coupon for the same exact dog food I just bought. The coupon usually expires in just a few days. Since I just bought a 40 lb bag, I don't need to go buy another one and the coupon will expire long before I need another. They do it every time.

It varies from store to store, but sometimes if you bring back your receipt the store will honor the coupon and give you a refund. Worth a try--the worst that could happen is they say no and you're not out any more than you already were. :smile2:

I once had a can of coke thrown at me by yobbos when I went past them on my bike. Scary. I was lucky I had a helmet on. Also there is an ad on TV at the moment telling you not to let your child play with laundry liquid tabs. Seriously? You have to tell people That?
I used to work 3p-11p shift, and would ride my motorcycle to work. One night I decided to take some back roads home instead of risking the expressway. At an intersection I noticed two teens walking nearby. I proceeded to cross the street and my right side rearview mirror exploded. I kept riding to get away from any danger, despite that I'd assumed someone, probably one of the teens I'd noticed, had only thrown a rock at me. I finally realized I'd been shot at.

Be safe, Blunt. Take the most well lit route you can find.
