Leasmom--did you get a raincheck on the coat? I had that problem last year at Walmart--got so fed up I told the manager as he was filling out all 27!! of my rainchecks that advertising things you don't have and then replacing them with more expensive items is called bait-and-switching, and in most states is totally illegal. He ended up subbing quite a few items, but I still contacted the corporate office because I had stood outside for an hour just to get in, then found out that they didn't even have the items I wanted. I don't mean they sold out to the people that got in the store before me--they didn't have them to begin with!! This year, there were a few things I wanted, but dh ended up going alone because the kids got sick last night
and there's no way I'm dragging them out in this snowy weather to stand in long lines!!
So that's my frugal thing for the day--I stayed home lol!! I'm very bad at impulse buying. Even though it would be gifts for people, and we'll be spending the money anyway...but we've set up a budget and I don't want to blow it!!
