If you’re shopping, don’t forget to check your receipts closely!
I was at Kroger earlier this week and bought a bunch of dish soap. The soap was on sale for $1.77, but rang up as $2.56. This was almost a dollar more.

Totally!!! I had to go back to the customer service counter to get the discounts I missed validated.
