Kroger Lovin'

2009-08-15T21:43:00.000-07:00

So, it's just passed midnight and I'm thinking about what an awesome day it was.

My friend Irma and I hit the 24 hour Kroger - arriving at around 12:45 am. There were a couple dozen other 'crazy' midnight couponers there shopping, mostly standing in line to check out in one of the two open lanes. Would you believe that we didn't get out of there until after 5 am? I had my coupons well planned out and organized and it still took FOREVER to make it though the entire store. The checkout process alone probably took 30 minutes between scanning the items and then the bajillion coupons. I had 2 baskets full which is way more than I have EVER bought in one shopping trip. The receipt is taller than me, well over 5 feet long and I'm not even kidding. We had the sweetest, patient, cordial cashier...wish I could remember his name so I could send a note to his manager praising him.

All-in-all it was a fun shopping experience - one I hope that Kroger will repeat again soon. I actually went back again on Saturday afternoon for round 2 with a MUCH SMALLER list. They were out of some of the freebies but it was still really good and super fast this time.

Round 1 (5 hours):
Total retail value: $403.99
Total OOP: $129.51
Rebates: 2 totalling $5.00
Super Savings: 70%

round 2 (30 minutes):
Total retail value: $112.22
Total OOP: $32.37
Super Savings: 72%

I'd love to hear about your experience with Kroger's Double Coupon day - did you score awesome deals?

My Super Savings ~ Walgreen's

2009-06-01T20:35:00.000-07:00

Total Product Value: $123.45
RR Used: $21.

RR Earned: $38.

Total OOP: $5.42

Profit of: $11.58

Took a total of 13 transactions because I had to purchase each Ecotrin individually in order to get the $2. RR Jen's Tip: I always check out with the sweet gals at the cosmetics counter in order to avoid the lines.

I'm so bummed out that one of my favorite Walgreen's Managers is being transferred to Corinth...good luck Dawn, I'll miss you!

I started with $9 RR's from last week then bought all the Ecotrin so I'd have lots of RRs to work with. I also used the $3 off $10 Grand Opening coupons at the Golden Triangle store on 2 of the transactions. I got extremely lucky and found the Pull Ups on clearance for $2.89 each, used $2.00 off Qs and will get $.75 rebate on each from CareGiver's Marketplace ~ Woo Hoo...so keep checking the shelves to score you some great Orange Tag Clearance deals!

What did you score this week?

Swiffer Deal::
Buy two refill packs and get a $5 Target Gift Card
Buy six and be eligible for a $10 manufacturer rebate
I found Swiffer wet clothes on clearance for $3.81 each, the shelf tag read $4.04
I bought 6 pks in lots of 2 - in separate transactions - in order to get the $5 gift card on each set. I also used $.75 off Target Q's that I found hanging off bottles of Tide in the store on the first 2 transactions.

I worked it like this::
Transaction #1
2 Swiffer wet cloths @ $3.81 each = $7.62
Used (2) $.75 Target Q's
Paid $6.17 OOP, earned a $5. gc

Transaction #2
2 Swiffer wet cloths @ $3.81 each = $7.62
Used (2) $.75 Target Qs
Used $5. gc from previous transaction
Paid $1.17 OOP
earned $5. gc

Transaction #3
2 Swiffer wet clothes @ $3.81 each = $7.62
Used $5. gc from previous transaction
Paid $2.84 OOP
earned $5. gc

I've now purchased $22.86 worth of Swiffer Refills (at a cost of $10.18), am eligible for the $10 rebate and I have a $5 Target gc to use on my next transaction (which I did) ~Woot!

From the manufacturer: Buy $20 in Swiffer products and get a $10 Visa Card via mail
You can print the form here and submit for the mail in rebate (you'll need the UPCs from the boxes). I hear if you received the Homemade Simple Coupon Booklet from Procter & Gamble you will find some manufacturer coupons to use on this deal....scout the cleaning aisle like I did you might find a few attached to bottles of laundry detergent. Even without the extra coupons it's a Great Deal!

I ended up purchasing some awesome coupons on Ebay and have planned out 7 more rounds. What I am LOVING about this promotion is that most of the qualifying items are "healthy" products, many are organics and brands that I truly LOVE! See previous post here for information on qualifying items and how this deal works.

**I have a 10% discount attached to my Reward Card until May 21st. The discount is taken off after any store coupons so on the $30 qualifying purchases I am getting an approximately an additional $2 off after I use the $10 Catalinas. I will let you use my reward card number if you are a regular visitor to my site and I know who you are - so you can get the 10% off too. You must not use my gas rewards though or you'd be in BIG trouble. email or comment with your contact info if you are interested.

Cheap diapers at Kroger

2009-04-27T14:21:00.001-07:00

Kroger stores are running a deal on their store brand of diapers called Comforts - (**which are actually the same diapers/training pants as Pampers)

When you purchase $15.00 worth of Comforts baby items, you'll get $3 Off instantly at checkout, stack that with (3) $3.00 printable Q's and you'll get 3 packages of diapers for $2.49 each

Here's how to work it::
Buy 3 packages of diapers at $6.49 each
Use (3) $3/1 coupons here
Get $3 off your order instantly
Spend $7.47 plus tax OOP

I found Training pants were a little more expensive at $8.99 each
Buy 2 pkgs = $17.98
-$3.00 instant savings
use (2) $3.00 Q's
Pay = $8.98 + tax OOP
$4.49 each - but still a pretty good deal

Tom Thumb Living Well Promo Spend $30. Get $10. OYNO

2009-04-21T07:43:00.001-07:00

Here's a list of some of the qualifying items I found (there are evidently over 3,000) with coupon matchups - all these are based on the prices I saw in the store last night (Monday, April 20th) Keep in mind Tom Thumb will only double/triple 1 like coupon. Stay as close the the $30 mark as possible to get the best value. I'm guessing the $30 mark should be based on the prices after the Reward Card discount because they are the prices on the special white shelf tags. *Important: You need to calculate your $30 of products after subtracting the store SuperCoupons. If your total is below $30, the Catalina will not print.

There are over 3,000 participating products. Here is a full list (48 pages long) thanks to Bob at Slickdeals. You can use it to search for products you regularly buy to see if they are participating in the promo. Runs April 15-May 5

Products are marked with shelf tags that say Living Well, Feeling Great. As the weeks go by, some tags may be taken down and replaced with red sale price tags, but the products will still be participating. However, if you have a problem with your $10 coupon not printing, you won't be able to show the manager the tag that says the product is participating. via MoneyWiseMoms

If you are new to couponing....this is how you do it if you are just starting out and you have no coupons:

First things first, you must have an ExtraCare Card - it's free so just sign up for it in the store and they'll give you a card. (You can register it online and get coupons emailed to you later.)

Have the cashier scan your card then
buy just the Aspirin - pay $2.00 + tax out of pocket,
you'll get a coupon at the end of your receipt for $2.00 ExtraCare Bucks (ECBs) to use on your next purchase - tear it off....

then do another transaction to purchase the Shave Gel - it's $2.89 - you'll use the $2.00 ECB you got from the 1st transaction which will make your out of pocket on this transaction $.89 + tax - and you'll get back another ECB coupon for $2.89.

It's best to keep 'em rolling to always spend less out of pocket.

A Few Good Grocery Deals 3/17-3/24

2009-03-19T06:49:00.000-07:00

**UPDATE: in the North Texas area Albertson’s policy is to triple coupons up to 39¢ (corrected thanks to Forthworthonthecheap!)and double coupons up 50¢, up to 3 like coupons per transaction. Kroger will now only double/triple 1 like coupon per transaction - I don't know if this varies by location or the coupon nazi cashiers but I found out the hard way last week so I'm just passing this information on. It has been confirmed that Kroger will still double/triple up to 3 coupons - however, it depends on how the cashier interprets the coupon policy.

My Super Savings This Week

2009-03-02T20:00:00.001-08:00

2 transactions at CVS,
7 transactions at Walgreen's
Total product value $127.75
Total OOP $8.19
RR's remaining $3.00
Total cost: $5.19
96% Savings

Here's a scenerio to get a bunch of goodies at Walgreen's this week - follow it exactly and it should work without a glitch! I got all this stuff last night by rolling RR's & ECBs.

Transaction #1
Buy Sambucol 30 ct. = $12.00
Buy Colgate Max 6 oz = $3.29
Buy Vaseline Lotion 10 oz = $2.69 (after 25% off)
Use -$4/1 Sambucol printable
Use -$1 off Vaseline printable or -$1.50 off Vaseline RP 1/18
Use -$1.50 Aetna Colgate Q (I can email this to you) or
-$1 off Colgate Adult Toothpaste SS 2/22
Then have them scan the -$10.00 off Sambucol coupon in March ES Booklet
You'll pay between $.98 and $1.98 + tax OOP
depending on which coupons you use
You'll earn $5.50 in RR's ($2.00 for Vaseline, $3.50 for Colgate)

Transaction #2
Buy Blink Tears Eye Drops .50 oz, $7.99
Buy any small filler item - cheap candy or clearance item
(I bought Peeps for $.33)
Use $5.50 in RR's from transaction #1 - GIVE THESE 1ST!
Use - $1.50/1 IP or -$2 off Blink Tears RP 3/1
Then have them scan the coupon for the Peeps in the monthly ad
You'll Pay about $.82 - $1.32 + tax OOP
You'll earn $8.00 RR (for buying Blink drops)

Then you could roll the $8.00 RR's for whatever you want but here's an idea:
Buy 3 Pepsi 12 pks - $3/11
Use the $8.00 RR
Pay $3.00 OOP
Earn $3.00 RR

Then you could roll the $3.00 RR like this:
Buy Colgate Max, $3.29
Buy Vaseline, $2.69
Use $3.00 RR
Use $1.50 off Colgate
Use $1.00 off Vaseline
Pay $.48+ tax OOP
Earn $5.50 RR

See how cool this is! As long as you alternate the deals you can just keep on rolling the RR's. The way you hand over the coupons/RR's does matter or it won't work, the register gets mad and beeps at ya.

RR's first - then Manufacturer Q's - then Walgreen's in ad Q's - (you have to have enough items being purchased for coupons being used to attach to)

Any questions let me know I will try to help...now go get you some cheap stuff at Walgreen's!
