*I didn't catch this at the register, but my total should have been $5.05. Either I dropped a $1/1 coupon, didn't give it to the checker, or she forget to scan it. I'm still pretty happy with my $6.05 out of pocket, though... especially considering the Velveeta alone was $4! That stuff is expensive!
