It's on sale!

When you have a "10% off everything" coupon, everything in the store is on sale. For some reason our grocery store is generating these coupons, good for 10% off your total purchase on certain Saturdays. How could we resist?

"School is starting, you'll need canned soup," Oz insists. "And crackers. And cheese. And apples."

"Hey, I'm reading one of those Highland romances right now, I need some Scottish shortbread."

We also needed some rhubarb and pie crust, yogurt, cinnamon buns, almond biscotti… Obviously, we're using the word "need" in its absolute loosest sense. We now have lots of junk food and a ton of canned soup. What's worse, the cash register generated another "10% off everything" coupon along with our receipt. Guess what we're doing next Saturday evening.
