*This last transaction was at a different Wags from the first two. It was here that I first noticed the Quaker Oats ringing up at $2.99, $2.01, and $2.50, rather than the $3.19 I was expecting. I asked the cashier had I gotten the wrong oatmeal, but I hadn't. I said well, I need something that costs $3.19, and BOGO.
She told me that the oatmeal was on sale for 2/$5.00, and they'd all ring up to $10.00, and the coupon would take off $5.00.
I feared that was going to mess up my plan, and I wouldn't have the amount needed to use my $8.00RR. So I grabbed a loaf of bread to bring my total up to over $8.00.

Turned out, the Wags didn't take off $5.00, but $3.62, and somehow, the final total comes up to $3.19 for 2 of the oatmeals.
So I bought a loaf of bread I didn't really need to. But oh well, we'll eat it.
