Trying New Things....

Today I shopped at a store I have never been in before....Food Lion. Why you might ask, well because we are moving to a tiny town in another state and Food Lion is the only grocery store there. So anyway, I went in kind of scared about what it would be like. I had gone through the ad and picked out my coupons, but I was still nervous. I went in with my list, got a cart and started up and down the aisles.....and ended up pleasantly surprised! I got all the things on my list, plus a few, signed up for the Food Lion MVP savers card, gave the cashier my coupons and ended up with $110.80 worth of groceries for $73.41 a 34% savings. Not half bad for my first trip. My ONLY complaint about the entire experience is that they don't double coupons. So, I will continue to check out Food Lion and figure out the deal cycle and see how things go.

Whens the last time you tried a new store and was pleasantly surprised?
