The lady in line at Market Basket in Salem told me to skip the Wednesday sale flyer
She was holding two flyers and told me the Wednesday one is mostly filler and the Friday markdowns on meat are where the actual savings are. I blew her off at first, but I watched her cart total ring up at $47 for a full week of groceries while mine hit $89. Now I'm second guessing every coupon I've been clipping. Does the Friday meat markdown thing actually hold up at other NH locations or is it just her timing?

Wait, her whole week of groceries came to $47 while yours was $89? That gap is wild and it makes me wonder if the Wednesday flyer is really just ads for stuff nobody needs. I've been clipping coupons for months and never once thought about timing my trips around meat markdowns, so now I'm sitting here questioning everything too. Do you know if the Friday markdown happens in the morning or later in the day, because showing up at the wrong time would probably mean empty shelves. Salem is a bit of a drive for me but if this holds up at other NH stores it might be worth it. Part of me thinks she just got lucky with what she bought that week, but that price gap is hard to argue with.
