One more thing, when I checked out, I received another q' for $2.00 off 5 boxes of GM cereal.
Also, I bought the Bic Soleil razors with $2 off. I opened it and got another one for $2.00 off!
I have such a big smile right now.

I want to do at least 2 transaction next Wednesday but the cashiers at my store are not the nicest with coupons and sometimes they said something snide...I just want to avoid that by using the self check out and hoping it won't need an override in the end. I usually shop right after work which is around 3 pm (too far if I have to go home first and then coming back at the busy time) so the store won't be crowded by then and by going in and out the store with usually there are only 3 cashiers working at that time, they will notice me....ughh.. Thanks for any help as for this long, I always to "chicken" to do more than 1 transaction on Wed...

last Wed, I did at least 4 transactions at one store. I did the SCO, but I did use a couple of non scanning WTS, and frees so I had to get the cashier involved. They did have to check my coupons when I was done, but most did it without even opening the bin.
On Thurs, I did 3 cereal orders and one with just milk and some other stuff. They had to approve my orders, but the cashier was ok with it. She was a teenager and I just pretended I knew what I was doing and she approved them.
Of course, this is all YMMV. Some cashiers can be real witches about things. I have just been lucky the past few times.
I have not been in pick since they stopped doubles - it is nice to see all the stores with SCO in them now.
I plan on doing lots of orders next week(assuming I can find Kens in stock!)
I do have tons of stores around here tho- so if I have trouble at one, I can find another 5 minutes away.

I've done back to back orders several times, and the cashiers at my store (Copps in Green Bay--I've done it at two stores on the East side) never bat an eye. Why would they turn down business? That's the question I would ask them if they ever made a stink about it! I've even done back to back orders where I'd buy the required cereal in the first order and use the free milk coupon in the second order. Also have been able to buy more than one of their super specials this way--like if they have milk for 1.97, limit one, I've been able to get one gallon in the first order and one gallon in the second order for the sale price.

Again, they've got to be smart about how they treat their customers--they want to keep them, and that's exactly what I would say if it ever became a question!

I usually do 2 transactions back to back and have not had any problems from the cashiers. My 2 $25 orders take less time than the some of those cart-full checkouts.

Thank you all for the help :) I'll brave myself to do more than 1 transaction this Wednesday, maybe I'll do one with cashier then go out and do the other one with self checkout..hopefully they won't say a thing :)
