Our local supermarket changes its specials and sale items mid-week and the circular for the upcoming week appears in the paper on Wednesday before the Thursday changeover which means we have about twelve hours of overlap wherein we can avoid buying an item today which will go on sale tomorrow and purchase an item today which will go off sale tomorrow. It's a moderately efficient system for saving a little bit here and there at no additional cost.
My brother and I both went shopping yesterday. Separately. Without informing the other of our intent.
We did both buy things the other did not. But we also both bought sale items. In quantity.
While we still need to go back and stock up on non-perishable staples (and cat food) in anticipation of Isaac's visit, it's comforting to know that, with seven pounds of bacon and six 24 oz. bottles of pancake syrup, we can host breakfast for the neighborhood should the need arise.
Hmmmm, bacon.
