Getting Deals with Grandma
Since I wrote yesterday that I went shopping with Grandpa, I should mention that I went out with Grandma as well. The big difference between the two of them was their shopping styles - Grandpa liked pawn shops, and grandma loved to use coupons.
She taught me the fine art of finding the right coupon for the right store. I guess it was pretty self evident that you couldn’t get a deal on a cheeseburger at a furniture store, but I really didn’t know where to find the best coupons.
I learned where to find the best dining coupons and she was even able to show me some of the best stores that had beauty coupons (for when I was married someday).
Between my two grandparents, I was able to become great at shopping - never paying too much and always knowing how to get a good deal.
