Hi

We are a pretty big city.

Hi
I thought since there are soo many cvs threads now Houston should add one too.
We are a pretty big city.
Ok so went to buffalo speedway n 610 cvs, oh my god its far
and they will do the stacking we like but you have to be gentle
like 3 - 4 coupons only. I had the supervisor and she was reading them.
Places that do not stack
Holcombe /greenbriar - used to super stack just 3 weeks ago.
Rice blvd/ kirby - used to superstack before xmas
montrose - 1 coupon per trans


I think at the same time a lot of these may depend on who you get. I went to the holcombe/greenbriar one over the Thanksgiving sale and stacking was a no no. Different cashiers may accept different things. I know that happens in my area.

[RUBY"S MAMA]

My sister lives in Houston.She has a terrible time with them stacking coupons. They will only take 1. I think that it depends on the person.

[superwizard476]

[sd59]

greenie i have similac checks... and i dont know what to do with them. maybe thats reason for you to come over and pick up all my expireds for schnauzermomma too huh?

[bugaboo]

oh sd just reminded me, I have checks, but I think they b for enfamil (someone else takes all my similac ones)
You want them? I still owe you the canola oil too.

[HollyGolightly]

Red Plum mailer that has all the grocery ads has coupons in it..

Febreze $5 off scented diffuser
Febreze $5 off Flameless Luminary
Febreze $5 off Soy candle

[schnauzermomma]

I think I saw someone post that the Houston paper had the CVS coupons in it. Did anyone check the online version yet, and if so, are the coupons clear enough to be printed?

Of course Austin got nothing. :(

Am not sure about DFW area, it would be nice to have some of these coupons that are good for Tx. :)

Well to get the e-version of the paper - you have to pay. I did do the "tour" - hoping it was todays edition that you could sample.. but it wasn't.. it was from May (I think May).. Major bummer. :( www.chron.com (http://www.chron.com) is the website - if you'd like to try..

[greenrays]

Thanks y'all:hug: I went to a few cvs tonight but they didn't have any clearanced formulas left.

I think I'll just do target generic. One can better last me a month though:lmao::lmao:

I gotta look on the positive side now.... I get to drink again:yummy::nod:

[imm93]

yes s-momma we got the CVS Q in the paper but they are only good for 3 days....not home or else I could have mailed them to you.

[chela62678]

anyone have any organic dairy based formula laying around they want to sale??

(tmi alert)
I saw tons of it on clearance months ago but never bought it, I was nursing at the time. Kiddo has 2 more months till he's 1 and his old mom is gettin' all dried up:lmao:

What kind of milk? DD was on Similac here a while ago but not no more I have a almost full can of it left. and one small sample one and one closed refrigerated one.

RS and reg I think. It's yours if you want it. Good Clean powder. He's on enfamil now!!

[courtneyrtr]

What day paper were they in?

[abczoo]

So I know this was none of you, but I need a place to vent so here I go,
I want to thank the person who changed my great Walgreens (yes I had a good one) to a warry of coupons Walgreens. It seems that after you left, they figured out that you gave them over $70 in bad coupons (mostly with false dates). Now it takes the poor cashiers a lot of time as they have to manually inspect every coupon multiple times. I have never had issues at this Walgreens before! Even though they did not want any one person clearing shelves, they did not mind a few extra transactions. It seems my quick easy trips are now gone. In the future, please take your fake coupons to out of Cypress. Actually get them out of Harris County and the surrounding areas!!!

Thanks for listening, I feel better now!

I had a store like that too, and this chick actually got caught passing off fake RR! She was actually making copies of them and they have her on tape, but have didn't arrest her. Now, that store will not adjust coupons down at all, won't take bogo on bogo and questions if you do more than 2 transactions.

GRRRRR

I am north of town, up near the Woodlands and recently a man got caught passing copied RR's and they do know who he is. He was a regular customer at a this one store and they would order in huge quantities for him and he would do many, many transactions - they WERE letting him do that but then corporate told him they couldn't order quantities like that anymore (I am talking it would take him 4-5 HOURS to check out a couple of times a week - all this came from my jedi manager) so the ordering stopped but that store and one other store told him that if he came on Saturday, he could have whatever was left on the shelf (boo for me cuz I am a late night, end of week shopper myself) so that was when they caught him giving copied RR's, they said it was a new cashier that noticed that the RR didn't have orange printing on the back.

So far, it doesn't seem to have any effect on their coupon acceptance, at least they are still cool with me and just scan away.... there are a couple of cashiers that will glance at the expiration date but they don't read every word... but I don't use expired coupons anyway. It is just those that say one per purchase that I worry about them noticing, I don't want to get into the purchase vs. transaction arguement with anyone...


I shop at the 1960 and Champions Randalls.

Is the Cypress Randalls near the woodlands right?

Nope, its near 290 on Barker Cypress :O

You got your answer about which is the Cypress store, but just FYI:
The Woodlands area Randalls are at Grogans Mill shopping center, Panther Creek shopping center and there is also one at 242/1488.


Hi everyone. I moved to Houston a few months ago from Nacogdoches. I did the CVS/WAGS thing for about 18 months until Hurricane Ike came. CVS changed their ad from Sun-Sat to Fri-Thursday. Nac had crappy coupons, so I would get my Q's online, and sometimes would not get them in time for the promotion. So I took a few weeks off, and that turned into a long hiatus. I just ran out of my last Venus razor from doing deals, and am about out of my Intuition razors as well.

I would like to get back into couponing a little. Not sure I can go full force as I have my hands full with 3 kids 6 & under. I am guessing the $/$$$ CVS coupons are a rare breed now, right? I used to post on here a lot - I started the garage sale/stockpiling thread 2 years ago.

Is there a Spanish paper that has the same coupons in it that the Houston Chronicle does? I'm wondering where I can find cheap/free coupon inserts. I swear I read something somewhere a long time ago in some thread discussing people dumpster diving for coupons. :) I didn't live in Houston, so I didn't take total note of it.

I am in the Spring area.

Thanks.

Vicki

There is a Spanish paper, La Voz, but good luck finding it. There are a couple of boxes near me and for a few months straight after I found this out I could get them pretty easily, the box was always full to the top (they are a Sunday paper, but show up in the box on Friday afternoon/evening) but then about 3 months ago, every time i went, the boxes were completely empty. I still am not sure if someone is taking them ALL before I get there or if they just aren't delivering them anymore. At first I thought it was someone taking them all before I got there, so I tired to go by earlier but still nothing, so now that it has been like 3 months since I have seen any, I really think they must not be delivering anymore.


Tried 3 Houston stores and none had the 1 oz acne wash....What a waste of time!!

snip.

I tried 3 stores up here north of town, nada.

What day paper were they in?

I would like to know this too, please. :please:

[ckap]

What day paper were they in?
The CVS coupons were in the Wednesday's Houston Chronicle.They were valid for 3 days only.

I see these and seems like they no longer put them in there.

Yes, after I posted, I went and tried to get the e-version. Of course, you have to pay $40 to sign up, ugh. :(

I was weakly hoping that someone here already had an e-version (maybe for work or something?).

Oh well, in DFW area now, may see if I can find out if they had those coupons up here. Last week, one store here still had the 'double' sets of Sunday newspapers for sale on Friday afternoon. That would NEVER happen in Austin. :lol:

I need a milk based one bc he's allergic to soy. It CAN have
soybean oil and soy lecithen in it though.

[houstonman30]

Does anyone have any Schick Hydro coupons they can let me purchase or maybe trade? I need about 20-25 of them. PM me if you can help!
Thanks!

[superwizard476]

Can anyone confirm the Reach CAT deal @ Kroger and if we need to buy a certain variety or just any of the ones 10 for $10. TIA!!!!! :cool:

I think I have some checks around here somewhere, got too busy to post them , lmk if you want them. I will have to find them to see what exactly they are for or if they are for ANY enfamil

[SomewhereElse]

I went to my old cvs from where I used to live and they are doing the sunday sales early again. So I got my toothpaste already. Although that store does have a mean a-- manager. the poor cashier was having trouble with my cvs store coupon and he called the mgr.. he was so mean to him just because he didn't know how to manually enter the coupon... anyway, I got a $4/$20 at the end of my receipt. valid only 3 days.

[houstonman30]

I was talking to my favorite Walgreens store manager today and told him how CVS had coupons in the paper this week for free Pepsi and $5 off $15 in hair or skin care. He said he knew about it. He then said from what he understood from Corporate is that Walgreens was going to do something similar soon, so he said to keep an eye on the Houston Chronicle.
So everyone keep a look out for a similar deal like CVS did in the Chronicle! It may be during the 6/27-7/3 week when they are doing those mid week deals again, but who knows.
I will keep asking him to give me specific details and will report as soon as I find out.
Lets hope they have good coupons, like the spend $20 and get $5 in RR they did during Christmas!!

Only thing I see on the ingridient lists are Soy Oil and Soy Lecithin!

I have a Refrigerated Similac Sensitive , Open Similac RS (maybe made one bottle of it) and a Sample of Regular Similac.

Don't need any of them. If you want them send me your Addy I can mail them to you. Or if you think we live close we can meet up somewhere I live by Target on BW8 and Monroe and I work by the Target by Memorial City Mall

Have a good day everyone

[TessaGreenfield]

quick question from those of you familiar with using the formula checks. Can you use them in conjunction with a coupon or do they count as a coupon? I'm going to pick some formula up today using a check and I didn't know if I could use a coupon too.

And, I wanted to let everyone know that my little bundle of joy arrived this past Saturday evening at 8:09pm. He was 7lbs 9oz and 18 inches long. He's home now and ready for some more of that formula!!

TIA

[sd59]

im not sure... but if i give someone my similac checks, that have my name on them, can they use them??

[kims01]

[imm93]

Congrats Tessa!! These checks are really like a form or payment i.e. check; when I used them they would stick them in the register and they got printed/endorsed...plus always used a MQ with them. I did most of my shopping with these at Target and they knew what to do.

[chela62678]

OMG I so did not know that I thought they were used in form Of Coupon
:facepalm: i could have saved more money

[superwizard476]

At Kroger the jars of Sunsweet Jumbo Red Flame raisins are 2 for $3. I've never seen them that low, since every other time they were 2 for $5. Anyways, use the $.35/1 coupon found in booklets on in store displays to make them $.45 each. Pretty good deal IMO (great tasty snack that has a really long expiration date). HTH someone!!! :cool:

[chela62678]

Ok I have a question on the Enfamil Checks

So If I buy one can of formula I can use as many checks as I want or is it still one check one formula?

TIA

[HollyGolightly]

I found more of the Maybelline $3 off any - pink peelies at Target yesterday.. Those expire TODAY. If you are out at Target might want to check the mascaras for the pink peelies -- they will be good to use at CVS this week.

Can't believe I found more right before they expire. :(

Going to try target today.... will report back.

Walmart is the worst when it comes to coupons so that doesn't surprise me.
What helped me is that I bought all my formula at randalls on the same day time each week and got the same time.

[TessaGreenfield]

Target worked out much better with the formula check. I was able to use a $2 ManQ, a $2 Target Q, and the $5 formula check, so I saved $9 on one can. I'll take that! :)

thanks for looking for me!!!! We just decided today to pull him off formula and go to almond milk, it was getting too hard for us to keep his dairy formula from touching our other toddler who is allergic to dairy.

1 kid allergic to dairy
1 kid allergic to soy and eggs. fun times:shake:

btw.. the Target near your house is where I scored sweet deals last year on toy clearance;) Don't worry, I'll be out of town this year for it... look out Austin:lol:

I had a friend tell me that BabiesRUs would take multiple ManQs on single items as long as each coupon was for a different value. I personally have not tried it, but she said she goes in all the time and they let her use as many coupons as she wants on one item.

Randalls should take them. My neutrogena $10RR scans fine at Randalls. I am in Pearland

[rani3182]

Randalls should take them. My neutrogena $10RR scans fine at Randalls. I am in Pearland

I tried it there last time but the casheir had the new policy info that said only for specific products. I guess I should try again...

[imm93]

I tried it there last time but the casheir had the new policy info that said only for specific products. I guess I should try again...

Right they put out new policy like Jun8th what read as they will accept any RR but then 10 days later or so on Jun18th they changed their policy to read "on specific item"....so think it will be hard to get this to work since it was good for such a short time frame.

[valley411]

I tried it there last time but the casheir had the new policy info that said only for specific products. I guess I should try again...

Try again - It took some doing but I was able to get the manager to understand that even IF the new policy states "only for specific products" does that mean they dont take manufaturer's coupons and kept pointing that out on the RR. Then she finally told the cashier - if it scans then it's okay. :woot:

[TessaGreenfield]

Scored some of the clearance Pampers swaddlers sensitive Newborn size today!! :woot:

Found three packs in one store priced at $3.xx. I had one coupon for $3 off, so I got all three packs for $7!!! :woot:

I stocked up on diapers my whole pregnancy, but not the Newborn ones because I wasn't sure if I was going to need that size. Wouldn't you know I had a small baby that may wear newborn diapers FOREVER! :P

I tried at W Bellfort & Wm Trace & the mgr at both acted like they didn't know the policy of accepting RR but took it bc it scanned. Then when I went back the next week to W Bellfort he said he'd only take one bc he got in trouble last time since they didn't get reimbursed. What a crock. If they didn't get reimbursed (probably bc they hadn't even been sent in yet) why even take one? And on top of that they said the total coupons could not be more than 50% of the total. I voided the tranny & left.
Scored some of the clearance Pampers swaddlers sensitive Newborn size today!! :woot:

Found three packs in one store priced at $3.xx. I had one coupon for $3 off, so I got all three packs for $7!!! :woot:

I stocked up on diapers my whole pregnancy, but not the Newborn ones because I wasn't sure if I was going to need that size. Wouldn't you know I had a small baby that may wear newborn diapers FOREVER! :Poooohhhhh! please tell where. I finally got done with diapers (one month of cold turkey potty training horror) but will need to stock up for the next one.

skip this if you don't want TMI: my 2 1/2 yo son's teachers told me to take him out of diapers & pullups completely even at night. The first 2 weeks I was going insane. I got the cloth training pants but of course they leaked everywhere. I tried the plastic underwear around them but that was useless bc he wouldn't even tell me he was wet since it didn't run down his legs. Finally in the 3rd week, he'd say, "Mommy, I wet my pants." That meant he needed to go pee. But "Mommy, I poopoo" meant it was too late. Now, a month later, he's completely potty trained even at night :woot:

Yes, it appears W Bellfort store got a new manager that is an idiot and thinks ALL coupons have to be less than 50% value(not just ips) I stopped going there for deals for awhile and have had little to no issues with W trace and NT. I don't use the oynso coupons though anymore since they changed the policy.

[imm93]

Need to help :D we got 2 briskets at Kroger but didn't go back for the other 2 we need to donate. We checked Kroger and they were back to 1.99 per lb :( . We need to drop them off tomorrow.

Anyone know of any sales?

[rani3182]

Or some nice summer stuff for the kids with the clearance

if you have kids anyways!

snacks is good too. GL

[bugaboo]

Not sure if you need or want, but I sometimes use the RR to buy bread at Wags. Not the best brand, but it will do
One store near me used to stock bananas (I wish they still did)

[cupcake85]

I was at Kroger tonight. The tostitos are $2.25 (after discount) & have $2 peelies attached to them. $.25 tostitos!

[imm93]

LOL Nope I'm in Pearland for the rest of the summer, but Houston better be afraid when we get to move back to the city later in the fall...I don't have a plethora of stores out here :(

[imm93]

Thx cupcake! True but they are nicer and bigger!!! ....even though you have few of them to choose from.

[valley411]

Thx cupcake! True but they are nicer and bigger!!! :confused: I'm confused. - cause my line of thinking is totally opposite. Ever since they opened the new signature store in Pearland - I hate going to the Houston stores.. they seem so :vomit: "icky" to me now and the people are rude. IMO :whistlin:

[imm93]

My DS loved the little carts in the bigger stores but he kept hitting me in the leg. We finally got a remodeled done in our Kroger so its just as nice now :D and have the little carts plus the ones with video.

[bugaboo]

I HATE taking my kids to the stores with the little carts! They try to drag race and I am so annoyed with trying to keep them behaving that I can't coupon as well, lol

:lmao: :lmao: How about my DS (trying to go fast) not being able to control the little carts and hit not just me but other people in the leg :eek: So, I never take him with me during "rush hour" only very early or very late. :cool:
Haven't seen the ones with video yet - that should be a nice distraction.

[cupcake85]

LOL I miss all the Walgreens & CVS stores I had to pick from. The Kroger & HEB here are pretty rad though. My Kroger never limits my coupons like some stores in Houston use to!

[greenrays]

I have a love/hate with those little carts!! Little dude always wants one but sometimes they are hard to find at my kroger, guess we are short on cart boys.

He's always ramming my feet but at least it gives him something to do.

The tv carts drive me crazy, he wants in then out then in then out then in then out then in then out. They should have put a padlock on those damn doors.

[greenrays]

Wt randalls lost power and something broke... No meat, ice cream, cold stuff and hoping to have it back up and running by morning but not sure if it will be.

Just heads up incase anyone is going in the am.

I was hoping for meat with my overage but settled for beer instead:lol:

[TessaGreenfield]

Anyone have any local information on the crayola at kroger? I was hoping to stock up but I'm not sure if its working here. Anyone? :)

[imm93]

Crayola is working in Houston...best item is the $1 markers since regular price is from 3.49-3.99...so buy 6 and get back 4 oyno or buy 3 and get back 2oyno....ie .33 per box

[TessaGreenfield]

:eek: I was just at Kroger... the crayola wasn't marked so I didn't think it was working... are the crayons .25c? The price on the tag for the markers said $1.50, but I didn't scan it. I also couldn't find any tostitos $2 peelies. The jedi cashier made the trip worth it though!!

Does anyone know for the Dixie peelie (buy 2 plates, get free napkins) if the napkins count as one of the mega deal items? They were tagged that they were included. I was one item short and I thought this might have been the problem.

The crayons are $1 here, not .25
Your receipt should have a + sign next to everything that counted for the mega sale, so you can find out what item was your trouble one
Napkins worked for me yesterday

[imm93]

Yeap we were not the lucky ones to get .25 crayons...best best are the markers for us in Houston. Need to find more plates with peelies :D

[superwizard476]

Plenty of peelies everywhere I look but I have none of the $.50/1 plate q's :O:O:O

[imm93]

Just checked prices for dixie on fleebay...can you believe $4 for 10? :eek:

[superwizard476]

Just checked prices for dixie on fleebay...can you believe $4 for 10? :eek:

Exactly why I didn't buy any :vomit: :(

[TessaGreenfield]

Does anyone have similac checks they'd like to trade? I have a few enfamil checks that I'd like to swap for similac ones..... :)

[cupcake85]

Something I found tonight at Kroger while grabbing some mega deals. I found the Cesar Bistro meals (dog food) are part of the mega deal as $1.00 before discount & in front of them is a blinkie for buy 2 get 1 free. The thing is the cashier will take $1.00 off (or in my case $1.09 for the full before sale price) & you'll end up getting them for $0.17 each ($0.14 each if your cashier takes off $1.09 like mine did).

Not free but I like spoiling my pups sometimes :P

[HollyGolightly]

CVS at Highland Knolls + Mason refused my IP (bricks) coupons.. said someone passed bogus coupons there... Something about a chip coupon?. I am thinking it's the Dorito coupon, but not sure.. It caught me off guard, there was a line behind me and I was fighting off a headache, so I didn't protest.. I will write CS later on.

I also had a problem at CVS on I-10 and Westgreen.. The "one per purchase" bs again.. there is a supervisor or assistant manager who is insistent that purchase and transaction mean the same thing.

:rolleyes:

CVS used to be so easy around here... now they're a pain in the axx!

[SomewhereElse]

I was just at that randalls yesterday and used my IPs at the SC.. the girl even let me scan my coupons..:lol:

duh.. can't read... I just saw mason/highland knolls... I don't ever go to that cvs.:P:lol:

[HollyGolightly]

NP, SomewhereElse, I rarely go to that CVS either bc it's always OOS of stuff.. now I will permanently strike it off my list.. but not until I call CS.. :P

[savingeye]

Yeap we were not the lucky ones to get .25 crayons...best best are the markers for us in Houston. Need to find more plates with peelies :D

what crayons were you looking for Imm?

[imm93]

There is a catalina at Kroger where you get $4 wyb $20 school supplies including Crayola. In some regions they got the Crayons on sale for .25 but we got them for $1 sale :(

[courtneyrtr]

what crayons were you looking for Imm?

In some Regions of Kroger they got .25 cent Crayola Crayons. Buy 9 or 10 and get back a $4.00 Catalina. But Houston did not get the .25 cent price we got the $1.00 price.

I was out of town in Indiana and loaded up on the .25 cent crayons there :lmao: :D

[sd59]

NP, SomewhereElse, I rarely go to that CVS either bc it's always OOS of stuff.. now I will permanently strike it off my list.. but not until I call CS.. :P

ditto. never any stock! i hate that store. thank goodness westgreen's location is still good about taking month expired ECB!

Has anyone done the kraft $5 ONYO promo at kroger? I've seen lots of people are having problems but haven't seen any of the houston people mention it one way or the other in the kroger thread. I'm not even sure if we have the promo here....

I was thinking about getting some cream cheese and regular cheese if it works, but if not, I don't need it...

TIA :)

[imm93]

Yeap being doing Kraft all week long :D I think there were issues early but have been corrected and also regional difference. The only thing to note in HOU is that the mini philly cream cheese are NOT participating!


EDIT: Dixie plates are 1.49 after mega so .49 with .50m doubled!! and on the Ultra largers plates there is a peelie for buy 2 plates get 1 napkin free....and the napkins is a mega item so you can do this

4.95 Philly Cream cheese tub/brinks 5
1.49 Dixie Plate
1.49 Dixie Plate
2.99 Dixie Napkins
1.00 Suave Deo
1.00 Suave Deo
- 2 Dixie Plates
- 2.99 Dixie napkins
- 2 Suave Deo = 5.93 plus 5 OYNO

Is there some deal going on with the Oral-B toothbrushes at Kroger and if so does anyone know the end date? TIA!!! :D;)

[imm93]

Boy! don't recall the end date of Crest/OralB lbecause my coupons expire on 7/31...but I am sure they will still be on sale next week due to them being in the ad scan/preview for next week...so you want some time to get your coupons together.

[angelgirl29]

Is there some deal going on with the Oral-B toothbrushes at Kroger and if so does anyone know the end date? TIA!!! :D;)

The Oral-B Indicator toothbrushes are 10/$10 and the end date was tagged as 08/03/2010 in my store.

[Hilre]

I just read that elsewhere also... but it started yesterday according to what I saw. I bet nothing is left!!

[bugaboo]

I wouldn't bother going if you planned to tomorrow.
I went this morning and got some goodies, just got back from going again and it is looking pretty bare. About 4 foot section left of cheese, no yogurt left, no milk etc.
Misc frozen food left, but not much good stuff. There is still some dog and cat food left but no cat litter, no household cleaners. no toothpaste, veyr little deodorant, very little of the "coupon" brand hair products.
No bread, no produce, no meat, no diapers, no miracle whip(a few mayos left but not the sandwich shop ones)

For those needing soy milk, almond milk etc that is shelf stable, most that 4 foot section has not been touched.
Anything else anyone wants to know if they still have?
No beer left, no charcoal, about 10 bottles of wine, no greeting cards, no KRAFT cheese.

[HollyGolightly]

Wow. I was just right by there.. That sucks.. wish I would have read here first. :(

[imm93]

[sd59]

why on earth would the entire store be 50% off??? i have a ton of cats that expire tomorrow... hrmmm i should check it out after work possibly.

also have about 30 cats for Free Always (Wag cat) that expire today.... and last time i checked they were $.50 over the max price. what'd you guys do with all those Qs?

[imm93]

Looks like they are closing the store and reopening at the end of the year I think. I heard there was not much left on Saturday.

I was able to use my Always cats on Sat at Wags since last day of BOGO50 :D = overage.

[chela62678]

Are they going out of business? And in another note... any one interested in starting a coupon club?

What would that entail? Coupon Club sounds nice? Like swap Q we don't need for ones we need? Or What! BTW nice to see you back!!!

[sd59]

I was able to use my Always cats on Sat at Wags since last day of BOGO50 :D = overage.

the stupid cashiers wouldnt let me do that... because they were still more than $3.50 for the first and then $1.99 for the second.

oh welll... i am moving again and this is the same stockpile plus a ton more that i will have to relocate AGAIN.

[imm93]

Good luck with the moving!! are you coming back to our area?

[greenrays]

If anyone goes to that Randall today will you lmk if they have shelf stable almond milk still in stock?!

[Hilre]

Hi Tx friends! Just stopped by to :wave: say hello.

Also, immy, you can pour Raspberry Chipotle Sauce over the top of a brick. Yum!

We made a shrimp dip and a crab dip yesterday. (Yes, we're on philly overload here) I also make a little crescent pocket thing with chicken and broccoli and a bit of cream cheese baked inside a crescent that my kiddos like.

[sd59]

speaking of... does anyone want to trade some stock? i have a TON of stuff I probably won't use and would like to trade for some stuff I can use more of... like Natural Dentist products or the white glade votive candles that free forever ago.

i have so much stuff in my stockpile. just ask!

[imm93]

Thanks Bailey!!! you must share recipes! :D ....so where do we buy these jellys just at regular Kroger/Randalls? not an expert in the kitchen area....hope it not that obvious

I saw a lady with a bottle at the register at my Tom Thumb and I keep meaning to go on a hunt for it. I think it might be near the grilling marinades. The bottle is similar. Not like a jelly like yours but a pourable sauce, thinner.

We had this cool local store (called the Twisted Pepper) that sold specialty dip mixes and sauces like this, but of course it closed.

[imm93]

Bailey, I like those kind of stores but then again don't go shopping there much because they don't take coupons :lol:

Going to Austin soon to visit a friend....maybe I will check over there...maybe its just in my head but always neat stuff there vs here. I know...I will take Philly with me :D

[greenrays]

My other half likes picante with cream cheese, it's the only way he'll eat it:vomit:

My lil man would rather have cream cheese in his ham sandwich instead of the Reg Cheese

[sd59]

a coworker just told me that Randalls is OUT of stuff.
I wish I had heard of that closing sooner.

he said that the cashier told him it was pure madness on friday/saturday. with 2 hr lines and people filling 5 carts +

Hey there! LMK if you need any info about the stores in Austin!


You can google a recipe "crescent chicken cream cheese" and a ton of recipes will pop up. I normally just mixed 1/2 tub of cream cheese with a few cups of cooked shredded or diced up chicken along with some seasonings and wrapped it all up in the crescent roll. Cooked for 15 min and YUMMY.

My beyond picky toddler even ate them:eek:

[imm93]

The Philly bricks that didn't work for me today were the fat free/green ones!

The strawberry tubs have worked for me both regular and 1/3 fat free.

1 c. cooked, chopped broccoli (opt.)
4 oz. cream cheese (I use red. fat)
1 Tbsp chopped chives
2 Tbsp milk
1 tube crescent rolls

Roll out the crescents and separate into 4 rectangles. (pinch diagonal seams) Mix together remaining ingredients. Spoon about 1/3-1/2 c. chicken mixture into the center of rectangle. Fold & pinch to seal tightly. Bake at 350 for 15-20 min until golden.

Yes!! I got the strawberry tubs only b/c in a past life it used to be my favorite:drool:

The Philly bricks that didn't work for me today were the fat free/green ones!

The strawberry tubs have worked for me both regular and 1/3 fat free.

Thanks!! Strawberry is my favorite...especially on a bagel. Will be stocking up today! :woot:

Happy Last Mega Event Day!!! :yahoo:

I missed it completely got so so busy! having a small baby makes it so hard to shop :(

[bugaboo]

For anyone in the Sugar Land area, the coupon fairy will be visiting the SweetWater store at noon depositing some Vitamin Water coupons in her wake;)

Too many coupons and too little storage space

[greenrays]

I missed it completely got so so busy! having a small baby makes it so hard to shop :(


try 2 small kiddos, it NEVER gets better :shake:

Once you have 2 you think, wow... 1 was really easy so how come I never went to the store??:lol:

On Saturday, I found stores that had Motrin PM..

1801 South Voss Road, Houston, TX‎ - (713) 780-7497‎
9795 Westheimer Road, Houston, TX‎ - (713) 783-4430‎

There was also a Kroger off of I-10 on my way home..not sure where the heck it is.. my GPS found the location.. I found Motrin PMs everywhere on Sat.. There is also a Kroger on Briar Forest (I think Briar Forest?) -- which had them..If anyone is interested --maybe just call these stores and ask if they're still in stock.. but they had plenty the other day.

My stores do not have any left and I don't think it is worth it to drive to these stores..

Do you guys know what happens when you get a RC and your coupon is over the price of the product at Kroger? Is it adjusted down? I still have coupons left.

[bugaboo]

Small baby is so much better than the walking, grabbing, yelling, screaming, tantrum throwing toddler shopper;) You will have a love hate relationship with those stupid "happy" carts

In my experience, it depends on the store/cashier. Some will let them go through, some will adjust down, some will not take at all

Thanks.. I should have picked up more on Saturday, but I thought I would be able to find them in Katy.. :(

I think this is the location for the store on I-10.. it's right by Voss..:

LOL I have 3 actually 8 and 5 don't ever want to shop. the baby has no choice since DH will not keep him at home for me to shop. So sometimes it's a no go

But i get a kick when the older ones go with me anything I pick up the ask If I have a coupon. Sadly not always.

Anyone do the Neutrogena MM at CVS Yet? Has anyone succeded here in town?

[savingeye]

What would that entail? Coupon Club sounds nice? Like swap Q we don't need for ones we need? Or What! BTW nice to see you back!!!
Yes, coupon club is a lot like that, but you also trade stockpiles monitor inventory and we use resources from each other, like a manager might let you use expired on one store and you give those exp to the person with the "connection" and so on... Plus it is a great way to build a network of people that you can depend on for other situations. I belong to a club from Austin and they were a Blessing during Ike. From place to stay to donations for Houston folks ... they were the best (actually they are still awesome!) Eventually the group can also adopt a charity and do one event a year to help around the area. Kinda Healthy minds and Healthy spirits!

And we can always use some chatty time too outside of the PC (for a change!)

My favorite thing to do with cream cheese is make Oreo truffles... :drool::drool:

try this recipe or any that are similar to it:

And I did miss the Mega Sale due to work... Anyone else has to work (just being sarcastic) ????? #$%$^#^&$#& ... Seems that lately that is all I do. I keep hearing about all the sales and I have been missing out, but after the summer is over, my workload normally reduces (the beauty of working with gas and the weather cooling down... hell is only 4 months for me!)... Then ... the stores better get ready!

I'd be down with that:bounce:. I love the charity idea. I know a lot of us donate already, bugaboo donated around 20+ packs of water to our lab rescue group:hug: which was a huge help for our spring/summer hot as heck events!! (bug, let me know if I need to delete your giving information:lol:)

I think for a certain charity to sort of "rely" on us for stuff is a nice idea and perhaps would make me go to the store more and stop being so lazy b/c I don't "need" something.

No worries greenrays, I ain't to proud to donate, glad I could help and you could clear up space in my house for other stuff. The sig other gets pissy if he has to look at the mess!;)

I didn't go b/c it's a little far but----- would love to know:nod:

I didn't know you did almond also, thought y'all were just soy. There is a good almond deal at kroger through August 10th.

The cold almond milks are 2/$5. So $1.50 after blinky or insert coupon:woot: Buy 2 and it's $3 for a gallon of almond milk. That is sweet!!!

I'm going to stock up in the next few weeks since they have sept 10th and beyond exp dates. My garage fridge better NOT go out again:reaper:

[savingeye]

The New HEB in Katy on Pin Oak opens today, the Houston Chronicle that was delivered to my house has an additional HEB insert specifically for this stores grand opening. On the inside back page there is a coupon for $25 for new or transferred perscriptions...

Expired ECB's....
I'm in Katy/Cinco Ranch and had some ECB's expire Sunday. The store on Westheimer Pkwy/Grand Mission used to take them but wouldnt last night. Anyone know of a store out this way that still takes expired?

Also, I bought 4 and left like 6 Cinnamint Listerine (Clearance price $1.24 still giving 2 ecb) on the shelf last night at that store. Will check tonight to see if they are left and get a couple more.

Finally... if anyone does not need their Boxtops... I have two school age daughters at OKE who would LOVE them. I get two copies of inserts a week to trade or RAOK.

Westheimer Pkwy/Fry Road takes them.. as well as I-10 at Westgreen. Last time I checked the location at Grand Pkwy and Kingsland took them too.

I don't believe Mason Road/Highland Knolls accepts them any more.

Good luck!

eta, did you mean Grand Parkway? The CVS by Target and Chick Fila? if so, they haven't accepted them for awhile now. :(

Lol... I must not have been awake, Westpark and Grand Mission is where I tried last night and it was a no go. She said they have clamped down on coupons and cant take anything that beeps/cant enter anything manually now. they used to be really flexible. And your right, the one on grand parkway/westheimer by Target is TERRIBLE. Store manager scrutinizes everything. I only go there at night and only when the deals are good. I will try Westheimer/Fry.

The next elementary school fad toy appears to be 'Squinkies'. (I say this as my DD's are still wearing silly bandz). They are cute (overpriced) pencil toppers.

I found some at the Target on Westheimer near the Galleria in the toy section next to the Littlest Pet Shop toys. FYI, Dont waste your money on the bracelet, they fall off super easy.

Did anyones CVS Summer clearance hit 75% off yet??? :O

Not in Austin. Manager told me that Texas will likely not change to 75% off for another week or two. I wonder if that's true and if so, if it's because it's still like summer around here! :)

[imm93]

Thanks S-momma!!! didn't get out to check CVS this weekend.

Kroger: so does this mean we finally got the Schick Hydro sale pricing to do the 5/25 deal?

Fiesta ad has Chiquita Apples Bites $1 till Sept 14th...free with $1MQ tearpad :D

Wow! We get a small free local newspaper The Bellaire Examiner delivered to our house each week. Inside is a flyer for Central Market with the following coupons!!!

FREE freshly baked bread (max. value 5.99!) valid thru 9/19/10 :woot:

$10 off seafood "with your purchase of $40 or more" (valid 9/15-9/28)

FREE fresh green salad (1 lb. max) and a small hot soup (max. value $11.78!) valid 9/22 - 10/5 :woot:

$10 off choice steaks "with your purchase of $40 or more" (valid 9/29 - 10/12)

There doesn't seem to be any purchase requirements for the free items! It's not clear for the $10 off coupons if you have to buy $40 worth of seafood or just any purchase from the store of $40 (I'm guessing the former though).

I've never had the opportunity to set foot inside a Central Market - I guess I will now though! :D

Be on the lookout for this flyer, the Bellaire Examiner is one of a chain of local neighborhood papers, there is also a West University Examiner as well. You can also find copies of this paper inside local restaurants and stores though I'm not sure if they would include the ads inside.

Found this posted on AFC, member is from Lewisville, TX. No idea if the information is accurate or not, but I wonder..................................... :P

"No more limit to doubling and tripling like coupons in a transaction
This is absolutely confirmed, I just bought 64 Yakisoba noodles in 1 transaction and all coupons doubled.

While I was checking out 1 of the customer service agents came over to me and told me that as of Sunday, Kroger no longer limits how many like coupons they will double or triple in a transaction. She even showed me to print out from corporate so I gave it a try. I bought the noodles and 7 Dial handsoaps all in 1 transaction and paid nothing.

We are in the big time now. Kroger is the best!!!!"

Right now I would just be happy with all stores tripling 3 ALL the time. Will have to talk to my contact and see if this is a district policy

[imm93]

Wow superwizard....almost had to pinch myself to make sure I was not dreaming!!!

Bug please keep us posted!!!

[HollyGolightly]

That would be awesome, wizard!!! I wish I would have read about it earlier... I hadn't been able to make it to Kroger lately and had 40 Dial coupons left, so I hit multiple stores tonight.. :faint: would have been nice to be able to use more than 3 per tranny.

BTW, if anyone on the west side of town is searching for the Novartis Cares coupon booklet - I found a store with TONS.. ..

Coupons expire 6/30/2011:
--$2 off any Excedrin (:heart2: :heart: 20ct or higher :heart: :heart2: )
--$1.50 off Excedrin Menstrual (20ct or higher)
--$6 off Prevacid 24 hr (no size restriction :yummy: )
--$2 off Benefiber, Maalox, Gas-X, or ex-lax product

** The Excedrin coupons work will nicely with the EXCEDRIN EB deal at CVS next week **

ALSO..the same store had a few (like 2-4'ish) of the Healthy Living Coupon Book--which has these coupons:

$0.35/1 off SoftSoap Liquid Handsoap (no restrictions) <-- :bounce::drool::bounce:
$1 off Colgate 360 toothbrush
$1 off Colgate Total
$2 off Advil PM (32 ct or larger)
$2.50 off Nature's Bounty <<< (might be good to use at CVS when they're BOGO--to bulk up an order, so can use a $/$$ CVS Q)

expiry date 12/30/2010

PLUS tons more but I am too lazy to post them all.

PM me :secret: , if you want the location..

Well, I do hope OP on AFC is correct
BUT my contact is saying there have been no changes to policy. So far my contact has been correct everytime I have had to inquire about something :sorry: (hoping she is wrong, but I won't be holding my breath)

Just to chime in on the doubling/tripling limit...went last night to use 24 of the .50 minute maid cpns on the 10/10 cups. They rung up 1.49 instead of 1.00 and the cashier price modified 18 in one tranny for the correct price. She scanned my card before using the cpns and all 18 doubled to 1.00 making them all free. I'm not sure if this was because of the price modification but I was super shocked. Hth's but next time I go in to this store I'm going to try 4 instead of the normal 3 and report back!

[imm93]

htown....was this here in Hou or your neck of the woods? this makes me want to go try 4 MQ now!!! :paperbag:


It seems reports from up north so hope it makes its way down to our neighborhood :D

[cupcake85]

happy to report my contact was wrong

CONFIRMED in Rose/Rich

Ok guys, htown's post got me to go give it a whirl
I went to the Kroger marketplace on grand parkway and used 4 Mahatma coupons and ALL 4 doubled

It is only a shame there are NO great deals this week to take advantage of this deal (I fear this is not going to stay this way for long)

BTW, anyone near that Kroger, 75% off on back to school and some board games and toys
Some really good deals

[imm93]

[SomewhereElse]

At Target, has the garden stuff gone more than 30% ?target i went to was 75% yesterday.

anyway, major fail at randalls today. I got 4 sb and 2 glade, no eq's came off and no cats! arghh!
went to cs and they couldn't do anything about the cat because I "used coupons", bunch of bs. I just returned everything. this was the plantation store. is this still working today?

[bugaboo]

Awww, but depending on the store you have to pay attention to the wording.
I have one store near me that will manually force it NOT to double/triple if it has the wording:chairbas:
At this store, I can argue they are not doubling, they are tripling. :D

Plantation store? Do you mean NT? If so they are very uncoupon friendly AGAIN (telling me no more than 2 likes, can only use 1 oynso blah blah blah)

plantation and fm 359? I think that's the cross street. cs lady mentioned that other people had been coming up and asking about not getting their cats. I'll just avoid that store. no wonder they were stocked with everything. so can anyone tell me a store where it is working. thanks.

[Hilre]

Great news about Kroger!! Thanks for sharing!! Anyone try this in the SW part of town?

I can't even get the SW stores to let me use more than 3 likes regardless of doubling/tripling.
Good luck if you choose to test for us:wave:

Randalls in Austin worked with 6 SBs today and last night, at two different stores.

[imm93]

ok....just plain crazy...looks like someone at AFC called Kroger and they confirmed the multiple doubling/trippling is just a glitch?!? that it will be fixed soon....:O
