I had a coupon to take $10 off a $10 purchase at JC Penneys so today I used it. In the boy's section they had sleepwear for 50% off, and on the bottom rack, hidden behind sets of PJ's were the boys Minnesota Vikings sleep pants priced at an even $20.00. I thought I was hallucinating. Having it priced at $20.00 is another anomaly - since they price a lot of things at $19.99. So since it was $20 and not $19.99, at half priced it was $10.00 which meant I could use my $10 coupon on them. If they had been $19.99 reduced to $9.99, then the coupon wouldn't have worked.
Total spent? 0.00. Since I didn't go to any yardsales yesterday, getting something free today made up for it. And probably no yardsales next Saturday either. But you never know. haha

Love yet another freebie....Susan C.
LOVE IT! Truly a gift from Above! :)
I love when you do this, seriously. I tell people about it. I have a friend that throws those coupons AWAY.
Merry Christmas, YSQ!
I tried buying something last year from JCPenney with a 10$ coupon and the item was 9.99. Yep, doesn't work. I didn't get any coupons this year from them and didn't even go into their store. I did win a $250 gift certificate to a salvage store and that was MUCH better than shopping at JCP.
Great post!!! Totally endure the fact!!!
It wasn't a miracle!! We in Minnesota are so embrassed about our Vikings that no one will buy anything with their names on it...so the clothes company sent them to other states...and those states/stores were so embrassed by the Vikings that they even hid them in your store!!! Happy Holidays!!
Well I think the Vikings can be given a pass for this season cuz of the stadium.
And I do know now that it wasn't a true miracle. Cuz I went back to the Penneys the other day and see where they a whole section of various NFL teams. But someone had put just the Vikings stuff in the other section of boys clothes. No doubt whoever it was, wanted to *hide* the merchandise so they could come back later and buy it all up.
