This doesn't happen to me very often. Our grocery store (Shop Rite) runs specials around holidays where if you spend $300 in a 6 week time period you get a free ham or turkey.  So that make the turkey free.  (I wouldn't buy a frozen turkey breast anyway, so it's a real reward.)  Cortaid must be hurting for business because they have high value coupons on Cellfire & they spit out from the catalina machine at the store - and it lets you use both in one transaction.  This way, it's cheaper than the brandex hydrocortosone cream.  And finally, Cellfire had a random award day today where you could win anywhere between a $0.50 and $5.00 coupon.  I got lucky and got the big one - that's why I got the steaks as a treat. 

We used the Outback recipe from the Top Secret restaurant cookbook & they were pretty tasty.
