Double Coupons = FREE!

Ok, so not all my coupons double at Kroger, and not all the coupons that do double equal free items. But I did get TEN free items at Kroger today, so I'm stoked! I also used eCoupons for the first time today. You can load coupons from Kroger, P&G, Cellfire and Shortcuts to your Kroger card and they automatically come off when you buy the item. They don't double, or work more than once, but hey! It's cool! And I had a coupon on there I didn't know about (I changed my shopping list at the last minute) and saved an extra $1. :-)


I (heart) Rite Aid!

Today's Rite Aid trip wasn't as exciting as my first one, but it's still pretty sweet! I got a few free things, and saved a bundle on the rest. Used my first Video Value coupons too! I'd written out my transactions before hand, but one of the deals mentioned online didn't really apply, so I had to rearrange on the fly and I missed redeeming an UP reward. But that gives me an extra $1 for next week!

Kroger Trip 7/14/10

Kroger has a great deal going on this week! $5 off wyb any 10 participating items. And there are a LOT! I'll be going back for more as some are refrigerated and we had other errands to run, but here's how the trip went today:

Rite Aid FTW!

I'm loving Rite Aid! I scored some great deals today - plus coupons and SCR (Single Check Rebates) made for a super profitable trip. Rite Aid FTW! (For The Win!)

Rite Aid Happiness!

UPDATE: Savings at Rite Aid Better Than Previously Announced! See Below for the Scoop!

I spent some time this week watching videos on the Rite Aid website. This allowed me not only to grab some great coupons, but also a $5 off $20 coupon. With my coupon pouch (I really need a better way to organize!) and the Rite Aid ad in hand, I did my first Rite Aid shop.

I read about folks who have so many issues with coupon users. The Lord has blessed abundantly in my case as both at Walgreens and Rite Aid I had amazing service. I'll definitely be returning to those stores - and they're the closest ones, too! :-)

Walgreens Wonders

After reading the comments on Hip2Save's recent Walgreens video, I admit I was apprehensive about my first Walgreens foray this morning.

I'm happy to report that the Walgreens I visited was super helpful. The store manager helped me find an item and the cashier also went above and beyond to help me try to find one of the "Free with RR" items (unfortunately, they were sold out). The cashier was super helpful too, allowing me to use my coupons and do three transactions. I made sure to thank her, and I'll be returning to that Walgreens for sure!
