Coupons, Helicopters and Cars Oh MY!

OK so my vision is to be on Extreme Couponing and have my total be $5.00. The reality is my store doesn't double and I have to take both kids to the store with me.  So we start of at the Whataburger, get the boys some bribes to get us through the store, then we go shopping, I stick to my list this time (not completely but come on, there was some neat stuff to get) and we were out I would say in 30 mins. The boys were good they ate their food, but Binky has this training through his ABA that if he is good he gets a toy, so over to the toy section we go, try to talk him into the cheap party favors but he would have none of that so now we are in the aisle of cars helicopter and airplanes, Pixar is smiling at us, along with $8.00 set of helicopter and planes, which Binky is fixed on getting, I tell him No he can get a little toy and even show him some nice fighter jets but he politely says "no thank you" and then on the top rack is a shiny yellow single helicopter for only $2.00 and I say "hey how about this?"  he drops the set and takes the helicopter, and is so happy he does a little dance, and then we are getting ready to leave the aisle when Binky says" Can I get Inky a car?" Well sure you can, and yes my heart just swelled a little bit, and he goes to the cars and says "I got Inky a silver car" and then gave the car to Inky and said "here is your toy inky" We gave Binky a big hug and told him he was a good big brother.
