I went to 5 Market Basket's last week for apple sauce, none to be found.  I spent the weekend going to 3 Walmart's looking for Razors and Bics. No razors any place and finally found FOUR Bics at the last Walmart.  I also wasted time trying to find Nestle Chocolate Milk Mix and Nabisco Snacks with no luck. It's so frustrating. Am I just too slow? What am I doing wrong?

Just keep looking becasue they restock. It took me a few trips last tme for the razors. I have not found the bic pens yet. It does feel like I am slow to get places sometimes but I usually get what I need. I did find the applesauce but there were only a couple left. Keep trying when you do find the things you are looking for you will be happy.

Forgot one thing. Why not ask for a rain check?

I agree, I just carry those types of coupons with me all the time and check each time I go.  Eventually I find what I'm after.   This weekend I found the BICs, but it was before the football game and the lines were CRAZY, so I put them back and figured I'd find them again.  It can be frustrating sometimes.  I've learned that unless it's something I need, I don't run out right away.

I've had Walmart issues, too.  I don't normally shop there, so I don't know where everything is located, or, how quickly they run out of the sale/coupon items.  I think unless something really great comes up at Walmart, or, something I really need, I'm going to let that store go. I did find a few of the red Bic pens last time I was there, but my qs for everything were not accepted, so I canceled the whole order.

I did find 3 of the Totally Fruit at MB last week.  They only have a small spot on the shelf for them in my store, so they don't stock many at a time, but, MB is really good at restocking quickly, so check back.  My MB is crazy on the weekends.  I find the best time to go is a Monday or Tuesday morning around 10:30–shelves seem to be full.  I also find MB worth the trip to look for coupons–where they keep a wall of them by customer service. Even if I don't find the items I came in for, I can usually at least pick up a few good qs.  I think I wil take my own advice and head there tomorrow to see if I can find those darn elusive Scrubbing Bubbles!  This week the Starter Kit w/refill is on sale for $3.79.

The kits are still on sale. That is great. I think I have one more coupon for them.
