    I went to the WG by me on Fletcher and BB Downs and I tried to use the in store Q for the foil that made it $3.19 and then also the $1.50 MQ and I was told that I could not use both because the WQ ring up like MQ so you cant use both a WQ and a MQ on the same item.

    Great shopping!
    I went to Walgreen’s this week-end as well and bought lots of Jell-o. :) Unfortunately, the eggs were about to expire withing less then a week and  the foil was not a heavy duty type.
