Or did I miss a thread?

I haven't seen anything great in the add coupon wise.

Just came back from Pick n Save. They are having BOGO Lysol! And Dove deals.

I got 2 Lysol Clings for $2.19-$1/2Q dbl = 19 cents for two toilet bowl cleaners!

I also picked up Lysol disinfectant 3.15 and a Lysol Kitchen 4 in 1 spray cleaner (free) and doubled two 50 cent Qs. Got those both for $1.15.

Dove deals

Buy 2 shampoo or conditioners, get free hair styling item.
2/$7 - $1/1 dbl Q - $1.25 - Q from Ad for free item= 3 items for $3.75

Bought 2 deodorants, get one Bic Comfort 3 free with Q from ad.
Those were supposed to be 2/$7--I grabbed two and they were $2.79@
Got 2 deodorants and shavers for $1.58.

I am planning on buying the hormel always tender pork loins that are BOGO, minus 2 $1 coupons doubled, makes pretty cheap pork loins.

Can you check and see if the smaller packages of Hormel Always Tender porkchops (2 in a package) are on special still? I got two packages for pennies last week, but not sure when the sale ends or ended. The $1/1 coupon says good on any Always Tender product even though it just pictures a pork tenderloin. TIA If they're not on sale they will be about $1 more per package...still ok.

If I do go it won't be until around 1 or 2.

The toilet cleaner deal is interesting (so are the others, but I have tons and tons of shampoo and deos).

The Pick threads have been sparce lately. I've only been lurking because I haven't found anything worth posting about either.

Ball park franks are on sale for $2.50/1 - $1Q doubled = $.50/1
Scotties facial tissue is $1/1 - $1/5Q doubled = $3/5 - not great, not terrible
Trop50 OJ is $3/1 - $1Q doubled = $1/1

A few okay deals, but nothing spectacular. Did use Q's to buy a fresh pineapple and cocktail tomatoes as treats for the DD. Bought most of my produce at Piggly Wiggly again because of better quality and prices.

NOTE: The PNS in Oconomowoc would not accept the free diet Dr. Pepper Q sent to my home - claimed it was an IP. Also would not honor the buy 2 Diet Pepsi get 1 flavored diet Pepsi free - said they could only do "FREES" for $1 or less. Has anyone else had this problem? This is the first time I've ever been challenged there.

[Deja Vu]

The Dr. Pepper is technically printed, but by the company. I sometimes take the whole letter, but not to PNS, because they are sometimes problematic to begin with. I've never had a problem with regular coupons for FREE's before, was that printed as well?

[GJohnson39]

Yes, but it was a clean clear print out. The register took the coupons - this cashier and her next higher helper (I am loathe to call her a manager, just another cashier w/ seniority) stopped my transaction, backed out the coupons, then handed them to me and told me their "decision." I wasn't in the mood to cause a scene, but I think I will go talk to the manager later today to get clarification (or use the coupons).

Well I managed to get 5 packages of Hormel products. Two or three of them were under $1.00 (something like .87) after doubled Q's like ground pork and a couple were under $2 (small roasts and boneless ribs). A lot of meat for cheap-o!.

About the company-mailed printed coupons. Lately I've been not cutting those from the letters and just presenting the whole thing....heck bring the envie too.

Sorry I wasn't able to check, I don't go until after the kids are in bed. I wish I had read this before I went, because I bought the $9.50 tenderloins with my coupons! Still a good deal, about $3 for each tenderloin. And they're enough for dinner plus leftovers.

I can't wait for next week. I love the Cascadian Farms products, so I'll be stocking up on those. On sale for $2.50 each, $1/1 coupon doubled makes them $.50 each. I bought 20 free gum coupons on ebay, so it should make for some low out of pocket transactions!
