If you can't find something - ASK!

I was reminded today while out "scoring some deals" to let you know that sometimes the sale items are NOT where they "should" be in the store, so don't get discouraged!  This happens a lot, and usually employees are happy to point you in the right direction.  Sometimes they are on a different "sale" rack, or maybe some other frugal shoppers came in the week before and hid them!  Don't do that by the way - not good manners in the coupon shopper's circle!

Today, at CVS, the Cottonelle 20pk of toilet paper (you know - with the $4 ECBs)  was NOT with all of the other toilet paper!  There was a smaller pack, but not THE pack on big sale.  I asked a sales associate, and he found me one.  I didn't get a good look at where he found it, I was at the register.

And, at Walgreens, the Nivea Body Wash (on sale for $2.99, with $2 RRs) was NOT with all of the other body wash, including the other Nivea B.W. products.  Again, I asked a sales associate, and she knew exactly where it was - at the end of a hair product aisle, and down low on the shelves!  Go figure!

So, if you can't find something - ASK!
