Walmart Haul: Price Matching

So I did this haul at Walmart using their Price Match Guarentee! Krogers is having a sale on their ALL detergents. I could have done it at Krogers so I can rack up some more Fuel Points but I also wanted the Ready To Go Snacks. Something to keep in mind is that laundry detergent is a good item to have in your stockpile. Think about it... It's not always cheap, you use it often and it doesn't go bad. So when you find a good deal, stock up! I can go over a list of good stockpile items another time. Here's the breakdown:

ALL Laundry Detergents

4.88 ea- Price Matched w/ Krogers ad for 2.99 ea (8)

MFR CPN- 1/1.00 (RP 9/28) Used 8

OOP- 1.99 ea (15.92/8)

Ready To Go Snacks

1.98 ea (5)

MFR CPN- 1/1.00 (SS 10/19) Used 5

Coupon Doubling

So I was doing a little digging around after last night Web Session- Couponing 101 and found a couple of stores that will double or triple your coupons value! Unfortunately, no stores in Houston do this :( But I did find some for other states that are represented in our group! So, how do you know if a coupon will double? Easy! If your coupon bar code has a "5" in the from of the barcode it should double automatically.Keep in mind though that the cashier can override it, so read the store procedures. If it has a "9" it will NOT double automatically at the register. Good luck and congrats to those giving Double Couponing a try! I'll link the store websites, if there is one, to the name that way you can look up their Coupon Policy and store ads. So here they go!

Florida:

New York:

Wegmans
A&P
Price Chopper
Stop & Shop
Tops Friendly Markets
ShopRite
P&C
Check out this site for awesome Mashups @ Wegmans! http://www.grocerycouponnetwork.com/view/wegmans

Ohio:

Giant Eagle

Pennsylvania:

I haven't had luck finding any. Let me know if you do!

Puerto Rico:

I believe K-Mart does during certain weeks. It seems the last time they did it was 3/16-3/22/14

Texas:

I haven't had luck finding any. Let me know if you do!

Keep Calm and Coupon On!

Here's a useful list of abbreviations and terms in the Coupon Lingo to be familiar with! Familiarize yourself with them so when you see deals posted you can catch on real quick!

Rare Disease Day

WEAR THAT YOU CARE!!!

Today is Rare Disease Day and if you can wear jeans to show your support. If you don't already know my amazing and beautiful mother has a rare disease call Relapsing Polychondritis. Sounds crazy right? Well it is! This disease is so rare doctors either never heard of it or don't know how to treat it. So show your support to help raise awareness so that this disease can be better researched and hopefully find a successful treatment or cure to help the handful of people that this is affecting. There is nothing more frustrating than being in pain and severally ill and the doctor telling you he pretty much doesn't know how to help you. So if more doctors become aware of it and start researching it we can hopefully give those affected by it some kind of relief. If you'd like to help with donations toward RP Research please visit www.polychondritis.org to learn more about this disease. Your contribution is appreciated!

My Beautiful Mother!
