WOW!!!!!! YOU DID AWESOME!!!!! I read the Kmart thread and decided to go hit Kmart.

I did four runs at two different stores.
My total for all four runs was $669 and my total out of pocket was $53.08 and $36.15 of my total out of pocket was taxes. I am happy.

The employee that checked me out today said that she was told buy her manager this morning that Kmart is going to run this week long double coupons again starting on the 15th.

Thank you everyone for posting tips..... It has really helped!!!!!

EEK! That won't leave me anytime for shopping. LMAO


Thanks, everyone, for putting the fun into "shopping the Blue Light Specials". hug

When doing the Doubles at K:
  • BOGO Qs are your best friends (2x free)
  • Clip all the $2 Qs and buy the lowest cost items (trial sizes Whistling)
  • Use as much $2 Catalinas as you can (these are doubled too)
  • Hope that you get the manual doubled system - more overages allowed

I will add a list later of the Qs that I used.

I ran out of coupons early, but found lots of luck with blinkies. Also, don't forget the wonderful $2 off tylenol, advil, Gillette Shampoo, shaving cream. All those items were either just under $4 or a tiny bit over. Free or close to it.
$1 off Juicy Juice (NOT that I need anymore juice boxes!!!) and they were on sale for $2. Free. Of course, I had 3 coupons and all the shelves were bare.
Some blinkies I found:
Blinkie for .75 of clorox by the laundry items. Small bottle of bleach was 1.49. Free.
Blinkie for 1.50 off 3 suave. Cool Bought 3 suave shampoos for the kiddos at 2.29, used 3 coupons. Free.
$1.50 off vaseline lotion. Littleist lotion around 2 or so. Free.
$2/2 Caress body wash. Body washes were around $4. Buy 2, use 2 coupons. Free.
HUGE $10 peelie on the Tidy Cat Breeze system. Didn't stop me from using them.....

Just a few of the ones I used, if that helps.
