I just moved from IL to St. Albans. There apparently are some serious couponers here...the stickies, peelies , and blinkies disappear quickly....as well as the deals from CVS, Kroger, and Kmart. My first week here Kmart had super doubles.....talk about jump-starting your heart. I had moved from the land of no doubles...I had to drive 30 miles for a Kroger and 50 miles for anything else. I was, however, in ad-match heaven back there.

We will have to meet up sometime. What are your coupon sources here? I find only one paper...In Illinois I had St. Louis, Chicago, Terre Haute, and all of the Central IL rags and could pick and choose.

I am from Webster County. I am big on couponing as are many others in our area. We have to drive to Summersville or Gassaway to the nearest CVS so I only make it there once a week.

Thank you!! Sounds good...likewise if you are crossing over to St. Albans---is my Kmart closest to you? I am still in the "unpacking " mode, but hopefully things will settle down soon. I am loving Kroger and the Kmart is doubling (unadvertized) up to $1 this week. Does Aldi accept coupons here?

I do like the people....except for the psycho woman who lives next to my daughter.

Hey...I thought I was moving to the south, but it looks like the snow followed me. I am used to a lot of snow...but it is on the flat prairie. Driving down a mountain on snow doesn't really appeal much.

Just moved to Martinsburg from Baltimore in August! My favorite place is Target, but man I hate driving all the way to Winchester. I can't wait til our Target is finished this summer!!

Are we really getting a Target in Martinsburg? Is that what they are building on the other side of 81 @ the Lowe's exit? Do you know when they open?!

My daughter also lives here in SA. That is why we moved---a big plus is the two little grand girls who were growing up too fast. We were making a trip about every 4-6 weeks and I hate traveling like that---and paying for gas. Anyway, it took almost two years to find a house that we could afford (sort of) and met our wants (sort of...I didn't get the Walmart in town or river view....my dh didn't get acres). But I am here....had to give away my stockpile, but I will be ready to reload soon.

KMart doubles are this week--only up to $1. I have heard rumor about next week. I will post if I hear anything definite, and I can also PM you if you prefer.
