Default Use those supermarket 'rain checks'


A couple of weeks ago, Albertson's was advertising our favourite brand
of non-free range chicken for .67/lb. It's usually around .99 or 1.00/
lb for the whole chicken; parts are more per lb.

Went to get some and another brand (Tyson) was in the case instead.
Checked a couple of days later and same brand. Went to customer service
and got a raincheck for the maximum allowable purchase of 4 chickens.
Now kicking myself for not going to another branch and getting another
coupon for 4 more

Redeemed the rain check this week for the correct brand (Sanderson
Farms). Now four nice chickens reposing in the freezer, along with the 5
or 6 we bought a few weeks earlier for .75/lb. No need to buy more
chicken until the autumn. Isn't that nice?

So get and use those rain checks if possible. Some products are
advertised as 'no rain check', so pay attention.
