            • *I maybe shouldn't have gotten both these coupons, but I had forgotten to hand her my coupons before paying (I was too focused on if the Izze Fusions were really ringing up as such a steal at $1.49) and customer service processed all my coupons for me. I was planning to try to use both, though, as the coupon on card seemed to be a personalized deal rather than a manufacturer coupon.
