    Angry Messed Up a Deal

    Have you ever messed up a deal? Or forgotten coupons that really made the deal? Or lost something for a rebate? I'm guilty of the messed up a deal sin. I'm mad but can only blame myself. 93% Hamburger is on sale for $.99.....So I grabbed three large packages......NOT remembering that there was a 2 package limit so the third package rang up $10 instead of $3. And of course didn't notice until I got home. A $7 mistake. I've done similar stuff like grabbed a wrong size that was not on sale and when I noticed it I returned it for the right size but I didn't know about returning meat so I just decided to suck it up and use it as a reminder to CHECK my receipt before leaving the store/parking lot if I don't have a chance to watch when it rings up. to myself.
