Dierbergs
I wanted to take advantage of the ice cream Catalina, but was concerned Dierbergs would not let me use the fourth coupon for Eskimo Pies. I stopped at Customer Service and told them what I wanted to do, and they were very accommodating.I advise people to stop at Customer Service before they shop if they have any questions; it is well worth the couple of minutes at Customer Service to make your check-out smooth and quick.

Shop 'n Save
I usually like to keep my Thursday trip to Shop 'n Save under $10, but we needed toilet paper. The rest of the family was getting a little concerned, since we were down to the last roll in the house. I told them I would bring home toilet paper at a price I wanted to pay before we were completely out; it was getting close.Before sales & coupons: $78.14

Just curious - did your Kmart enforce the 10 doubled coupon limit? Mine does so I don't bother getting items I don't have coupoons for.
ReplyDeleteMe again!! Which Walgreens did you find the little Glade candles at? I haven't seen them at any of my Walgreens yet.
ReplyDeleteThe glade candles are at the Eureka Walgreens if you want to make a drive. But Jeri, is something missing from your Walgreens trip? I'm adding the items up and I'm not getting to $25. I went to Walgreens twice, and ended up spending more than expected because I was trying to buy up 4/12 soda and make it cheaper by keeping my oop low. And I was obessed with Kmart and went three times. I have tons of "stuff" in my house but no bread! I went coupon crazy this week and now I'm coupon hungover. Sigh.

CJ - I made two trips to Kmart. I didn't even ask if they were inforcing the 10 coupon limit, just assumed they were. I found the Glade candles at the Walgreens on Gravios just west of Grand.
ReplyDeleteKelly - My Walgreens purchases were on two different days. I had already bought my candles before I knew about the $5 off $25. I have a coupon hangover too. And the word in the blogworld is Kmart is doubling again the week of August 30th.
I have so much of a coupon hangover, I havent been to a grocery store in 10 days. Thats a record for me!! But that hasnt stopped me from stopping at Walgreens a few times. I'm gonna skip the next round of KMart doubles. With the $25 minimum purchase, 10 coupon limit and my store's limited selection, I just dont get as great of deals as I want.
