Why This 75-Year-Old Widow's Grocery Coupon Left a Manager Stunned

My mother was seventy-five, lived alone, and depended on a small pension that barely covered her monthly expenses.

Since Dad passed away three years earlier, she’d become extremely careful with money. Every Sunday afternoon, she sat at her kitchen table with the grocery flyers, clipping coupons and making a list of whatever was on sale.

Last Tuesday, I accompanied her to the supermarket where she’d been shopping for nearly forty years.
