Most people are too lazy to pay attention to the circulars. I get
four every Tuesday and I read them religiously. Granted, it's
painfully tedious to read each one closely, but it pays off every
time. I haven't paid full price in years.

My last triumph was Cholula Hot Sauce, a product that, while very
good, is ridiculously overpriced. So much so, I quit buying it. But,
there it was, on Cinco de Mayo, 2 for $5. Not quite 50% off, but
close enough.

I must say one thing for Costco. Their prescription drug prices are
unbeatable. I've personally experienced discounts of up to 60%. No
one else even comes close. And, the best part is, you need not be a
member. Plus, I can get a hot dog and a soda while I wait.
