I rarely go to Shaw's supermarket, but happened to go there for warmth one early morning this month when my daughter and I learned from her school's front door that there was a two-hour delay. As I was about to treat her to a chocolate chocolate chip muffin at their bakery, I saw their advertisement in the flyer for Skippy Peanut butter -- $2 each. A fair price, which could get as low as 2/$3 at other stores. However, the deal they offered that week was if you purchased $20 worth, a rewards coupon for $10 off your next purchase would be given. I immediately paid for 10 jars, received my coupon, and then strolled around the store and bought $10 worth of groceries, including a chocolate chocolate chip muffin for "free." Since I didn't need ten jars, I donated 8 of them to one of the local food bank baskets. If you come across a good deal, there's no reason not to share the wealth!
