After formulating my grocery strategy for the week, I notice something has gone haywire!
Recently I attended a Couponing class - you know, the ones where they teach you the hoarding methods? :) My original goal in taking the class is to save more than I had been, which was no more than $4.00 on average each week. Using the skills taught in class, I've saved from $4 to $104 - no kidding!
Today when I get to the store - purse check, coupon box check. I look through my list, but when I looked for the coupons that I organized for the store I realized I must have left the envelope on the table. You guessed it, I turned around and went back home! About five months ago I would have just bit the bullet and did my shopping anyway. Of course I probably would have only had a few bucks in coupon savings. I did return to the store with my coupons in tow, and saved a whopping $40, all on items we will use withing the next few months.
So, the actual reason for writing this blurb is that I always tend to think that nothing is coincidental. As I sit here, I wonder what the purpose was for returning home - I'm sure it wasn't just for the coupons although I didn't notice anything out of order. Was there a good reason that I wasn't supposed to be in the store at that given time? I don't know. What I do know is that when things like this happen, there's always a good explanation - other than forgetfulness.
When I returned to the store, I found and purchased everything (and more) that was on my shopping list. Quite a few items were unadvertised last minute specials that I could also use coupons with, making them super cheap. I suppose spirit was actually helping me to grocery shop. Who would have thought that assistance choosing the appropriate BBQ sauce and yogurt, etc., would have come from a heavenly being!
Spirit also sent me a teen-age angel disguised as a cart boy. For the first time in my life, a young man hurried from behind to catch up with me and asked, "Miss, would you like help loading your groceries into your car?" If course, I took him up on his offer, complimenting him on how polite he was. "That's my job," he said. "I just want to help." If I inquire at the store I wonder if they would know they have an earth angel working for them?
