Ask.

I know I'm repeating myself but always ask!

My grocery store marks their milk down to $1 a gallon. When I find it, I stock up and fill the freezer. Well, I always knew that if I went on Monday's it would be marked down but when I went other days, some times it would and some times it wouldn't.

The dairy guy happened to be restocking when I was there last Monday so I asked him when they mark it down. He said on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings and the other days it's afternoons! He told me that he marks it down at 7a.m. on Monday and Friday but he's not sure what time the Wednesday morning person gets it done. He said if I wanted to be sure and get it then to come on Monday and Friday mornings. He also said that they mark it down when it's a week left until the expiration date! That's a lot of time left!

It's defiantly worth a trip down there to stock up the freezer and now I know for sure when to go! Even if I didn't have a freezer it would pay to plan my grocery shopping on those days.
