Keeping Track of Sales

RE: Keeping Track of Sales Post By Lynda (Guest Post) (08/05/2006) Several times the store clerks don't know what I'm searching for, so by showing the picture in their ad I get what I'm after. Also, if there are savings coupons I might have missed in the flyer/ad, I have them near and handy when I learn of them at checkout. It all saves a LOT of disagreement because a picture is worth a thousand words... RE: Keeping Track of Sales Post by Debbie52 (656) | (08/05/2006) Profile | Contact I put a * by the item and also circle it in the sale flyer and take the flyer with me along with my shopping list. Sometimes I type my list at the computer and print off. It's much neater and easier to read. Sometimes I start a list and send as an email to myself. RE: Keeping Track of Sales Post By UtahYogini (Guest Post) (08/04/2006) I have learned that the best way to keep track of sales items is to circle or highlight the item on the sale flyer and take it with me to the store. This way, if the sale price isn't reflected when scanned there is no debate, or if the sale item is sold out, I can ask for a raincheck. With the sale flyer in hand, the information about the item in question is readily available for confirmation by the cashier or manager and convenient if a raincheck needs to issued. Always ask for a raincheck if a sale item is sold out, unless there is an advance disclaimer that limits quanity. Doing this saves time and typically doesn't hold up the line if there is a question about the sale price.
