Reader Heidi is teaching her sister the couponing ropes at Rite Aid!
I’m home for Christmas in Seattle and I took my sister couponing for the first time at Rite Aid. She was very impressed, and the cashier said I was one of the best couponers he’s seen. Love it when the cashiers are so coupon friendly! Anyways thanks for everything you do, and here’s my shopping trip – we got $88 worth of stuff and only paid tax ($6).
