More KMart Doubles! So much for so little!!

Today is the last day for DOUBLE coupons at Kmart. My secret info says it might occur again on Oct 15. I mentioned this to the manager at our Kmart . He said it was a rumor and we would see.

I wanted to try the Double Coupons again at Kmart, so I got the coupons more organized. I actually broke down and am trying the binder method. I must admit it was easier to find my coupons. I am going to have to perfect the system, but I think it might be the way to go.

My friend De and I headed to Kmart. We called Lydia to ask a question about a coupon and she happened to be in the parking lot, heading into the store so the three of us started shopping. We then called Nancy and told her to stop organizing her coupons and come meet us… now we were four! There were a few fellow doublers shopping, but not as many as I would have expected. We ran into Brandy from Cedar City and two of her cute kids. I hope to see her deals on her blog. We shopped for about two 1/2 hours and all got some great deals. There were a few problems with cashiers not knowing how to double the coupons, but all in all it was a great experience. This is what I bought.

My cashier was a very nice young man who rang up my order, scanned all my coupons and then pressed the wrong button before doubling the coupons so the poor guy had to void out the order and start again. It was a hassle for him, but he was great.




It is hard to see everything I bought in the big picture so here is the breakdown:

4 Herbal Essence styling products FREE plus profit with $2 coupons
4 Pert shampoo FREE with $2 coupons
3 Gillette shampoo for men FREE with $2 coupons
4 Sunsilk shampoo and conditioners FREE with $1.50 coupons


6 Carefree $.29 with $1 coupons
2 Clearasil $.49 with $2 coupons
4 Colgate toothpaste FREE with $1 coupons
2 Reach flosser refills $.19 with $2 coupons
2 Reach dental floss FREE plus profit with $2 coupons
2 Bumble Bee albacore tuna pouches FREE with $1 coupons
2 bumble Bee albacore tuna cans FREE plus profit with $1 coupons
6 Glade candle refills FREE plus profit with B2G1F coupons and $2 coupons
4 Renuzit spray (like Febreze) $.40 with $1 coupons
2 Renuzit pearls $.50 with $1 coupons
1 Scott 400 ct napkins $.49 with $1 coupon

My total after doubling my coupons was $3.20 plus tax! Everyone did amazingly well, getting so much for so little! We were all pretty tired after the shopping adventure so we met our husbands at De’s for dinner (thanks, De!) and to show off our deals. Family, Friends, Food and FREE stuff… It was the perfect ending to a great couponing day!
