Making the Comittment to Go Green As Long As I Can
With the help of my two good friends: the CVS manager and MyGoodCents I am going green.
First, MyGoodCents is a CVS shopping expert. She gets armloads of stuff for just nickels. I really enjoy her “found money” posts.
I went into CVS and picked up a large bag of M&M’s and took them to the counter to pay. The manager was working and he said he had a better deal for me. I knew I could count on him, because on another day, when I was after drugs with no M&M’s on my mind, he told me they were on sale.
Today, he said if I bought the green only M&M’s, $3.49, I would get $3 in CVS bucks.
Done, and done.
Not only did I get the $3 from M&M’s I got another $1.50 in CVS bucks.
Going green is working out very well for me.
Wow, this is great! You don’t even have to purchase carbon offsets this way.
Good start to your ‘Going Green’ campaign Mark. Hey, I just picked up a bag of green M&M Peanuts…..we got to start somewhere.
@Vintage P: lol – The only offset I worry about is skidmarks.
@Joy: Of course M&M Peanuts have the wrong candy coating to chocolate ratio, but as you said, you have to start somewhere. Then again, you probably always were a nutty type.
Don’t the green ones make you crazy or is it just the blue ones?
@K8: If last one out of bag is red, make wish and it will come true, if last one out is yellow, take caution in everything you do, orange is good luck, brown is bad luck.
I think we can go with blue will make you craic (is that proper term?) 🙂
No, the green ones make you HORNY. At least that was the conventional wisdom when I was a teenager.
Van Halen famously demanded dishes of only green M&Ms in their dressing room at concerts. (Like they needed the help.)
@Gretchen: Oh yeah, I did miss that point did I? That’s the whole reasons for the greenies at Valentine’s Day. Thanks.
It’s a loss leader to try to make it up in condom sales. Have fun!
@ceeelcee: HAR. So you have direct experience that the greenies work?
Well, if that’s the case, 3 guesses what ole sixty will be getting for V.D.
True, I am a nutty type…but regular M& M’s are my favorite since I was a little kid. My son loves the peanuts….so…..you know the rest.
@Joy, are you saying you would suck all the candy coating off and give the peanuts to your son? Nooooooooo. Wicked.
everyone should Go Green so that we can help the environment.’..
