this time i planned out my transactions to have much lower oop costs.

the oscillococcinum coupon didn't work as usual and the message came up that the item was not sold. it's too bad boiron doesn't code their coupons correctly... ever! my cashier saw that i bought the correct item and entered a manual $2 coupon, but these coupons could be a problem at less friendly stores.

i got another catalina coupon for free breathe right strips 10 or 12 ct on my last transaction.
