Natty, welcome to the Copps/PnS forum! You may use a coupon on all 6 boxes, the $10 off is an automatic with your card. If you have a Sentry near by the 3# brats are on sale right now, I think $6.98 a box.

Alright thank you! I have a bunch of coups for the cereal! Get some now bc we need for the weekend go back on Wed to double them up.
There is no Sentry near by. Just PNS, Fest Foods and Piggly. When I go to Milwaukee, I might hit up the Jewels down there. If it's still there!

it's not, sorry. They turned all the Jewel stores into Sentry here.

What area do you live in Natty?
Wow, I didn't know, no more Jewels in Miltown.

I am in Fond du Lac. I lived in Milwaukee most of my life, moved up here 4 years ago. I work in Oshkosh though. I am a few minutes away from a Sentry and maybe a Cubs? So I guess I can make some trips there after work sometime.

I'm so excited for Target...I have 10 Target q's for $1 Colgate plus a few inserts for 55 cents off.
And I have about 6 q's for the BOGO toothbrushes. I will also hit up Walgreens for their RR

yeah, when Jewel left is actually when Pick N Save started getting crummy around here. The one closest to my house turned into a Sentry, but it's like nothing changed because all of the same employees are still there - including the really great deli guy - so other than the prices being a tad lower, I barely notice that Jewel is gone lol!

Hi all,

I have questions for all of you that do more than 1 transaction on Wednesday.

Do you ever get denied for multiple transaction by the cashier?

And if you use the shelf check out, will the machine beep at the end and ask the cashier/CSR to override the coupons?

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...

Usually, DH and I go together and we each do one order - if we have more than 2 we would like to do, like for next wednesday, we will go to more than one store. I don't know if that would work for you - we are in Milwaukee, so Pick N Saves sprout up like dandelions here lol! I don't think there are any rules about only being able to do one order or anything - I've heard of people taking their stuff to the car and coming back in for round 2 ;)

I'm back! Used my first round of q's and stuck the rules: Only use q's if I had them. At Target I did not do so well. Toothpaste q's were for TOTAL Colgate. BOOO! I got one anyway with a .55 off.
Total was $32.58 after q's. I saved $10.05. I did get Edge shave gel for under a $1 and I bought some misc things we needed that were 10/$10.
Now for PNS! Once again, only on sale, coupons or both!! Ok, I tried to stick to that rule. Grand total was $128.69, after q's and reward card: $69.36
We were so low on groceries so I had to get something for Sunday dinner. Got the turkery breast.
I did the 6 box cereal and got $10 off total bill and a free gallon milk.
I am going back tomorrow after work and getting 6 more boxes (I do have q's for those) get the free milk and buy the soda for 5/$10. Now I'll get the cereal with a few cents off, and $10 off bill so the soda will be free!!! The ad has no restrictions. I double checked.
How'd I do ?!?!?

Ooooh!! OOOOOH!
Nestle 30 pack water is on sale for $4.99, I have $1 off so I am going to save that for double daze!
I am going to go to the PNS by my job on the way home that day. I have 2/$1 off Nestle water, plus I'll do the cereal thing again for the free milk and $10 off, and I'll then I'll purchase another 5/$10 soda! We stock up on drinks in this house. And with the recent flooding, we need the bottled water.
