TUESDAY, MAY 7 Red Bluff Secret insider savings info I enjoy discovering secret information -- stuff most people don't know about. And I love spreading the word. Here's an example: My supermarket, like most, offers a "rain check" if it runs out of a product that is on sale. This is really great, in my opinion, because my store's rain checks have no set expiration date. Here's another secret: There's no limit on how many of that item I can get later -- at a more convenient time -- with my rain check. Case in point: Last summer, my supermarket advertised its London broil cut of beef for $3.99 a pound. That's a bargain where I live. And sure enough, they sold out before noon on Sunday, the day I was shopping. No problem. Because my goal was to load up my freezer, I asked for a rain check. A full two months later, when London broil was at its regular price of $7.99 a pound -- quite plentiful in the butcher's case and, I believe, a nicer selection -- I bought 10. And, yes, I got the $3.99 per pound for the lot. I smiled all the way home. I am excited to have just learned another secret.
