My dad and I visited my sister and her family today. She said that I should try her HT because I wouldn't have any problems with the use of coupons. I decided it would be unfair of me to completely disregard HT because of problems in one store. So....my dad, sister, and I ventured to HT. I have to admit that I was surprised at the whole experience. Not only were they well stocked with the General Mills Promotion items, but the cashiers were wonderful! I was so impressed that I made another trip back to the same HT before we left for home. Here's how I did.
