Let’s see what fabulous scenarios you come up with for $5.00 or less!
Simply post your scenarios on your blog, then drop by Keeping the Kingdom First and add your permalink to Mr. Linky below. (If you are reading via email or in a reader please click through to see the Mr. Linky)
Please link directly to your scenarios. Links directly to your homepage will be deleted. Linking back to this meme to share it with others is greatly appreciated!
Don’t have a blog? You can leave a comment with your scenario, too. I invite everyone to participate.
My ad lists the Dove RR deal as “Buy $12 or more participating Dove products, get $4 RR”. Am I reading it wrong? I’d love to spend $4 with the $2 coupon and get $4 RR back!
Thanks for your wonderful blog, I read it every day!
*sigh* Never mind, I found it! Perhaps next time I’ll be a little more thorough before I comment. 🙂 Thanks again!
