Walmart has it.

Now keep a look out...because some of the packages have a MIR for it free.

I've never posted a brag before, but this one was too good not to share and it's not even a deal ran through the P&G or Quaker sale!

Turkey Hill ice cream is $1.99 on sale this week
I had gotten 4-$.50 coupons from Turkey Hill after writing them this past Spring. In my Best Customer coupon pack that I got yesterday there was a $1.50 off a $7 frozen food purchase. I was able to combine these coupons and got 4 half gallons of Turkey Hill ice cream for a total of $2.88 with tax!

I was so pumped!

Come out come out wherever you are , even if its ust to say or to someone who offers a matchup, deal alert or other tip.

When I went to Dillons (in Liberal, KS) Saturday, they checked all my printed coupons to see if they were on their list of counterfeit coupons. I was pointing out to them where it said "smartsource" or "coupons, inc", thinking that that would help them figure out that they were not counterfeit. They said "oh, I didn't notice that, all these counterfeit coupons say smartsource". So they checked all mine really closely. I had one from the oreo facebook for free cookies when you buy cookies and milk (this one comes out once a month). They said it was on their list, but they looked again and figured out that it was for a certain amount off one package, so they let me use it. I told them I had never had my coupons checked before and they said they had been having a lot of fake ones come through. I am hoping this doesn't happen every time I try to use printed coupons! I don't like to make people wait in line behind me.

Other than that, I had a great time shopping at Dillons last week (all three times!) I stocked up on a lot of things for super prices and only a couple of things I wanted were out of stock. I think they did a great job stocking during the week, but probably had trouble keeping up on the weekend. I am thankful that we have a Dillons here and it has put some joy into shopping because I can focus on how much money I am saving instead of dreading how much money I have to spend somewhere else.

Well, here's a new experience for me:

This evening I went to Dillons in Lawrence to take advantage of the mega sale. I've been saving my sobe coupons, and had a plethora. We've been getting the "tails" cap quite a bit, which so far has only produced another B1G1 coupon. Which is fine, the DS is playing football again this year, and we go through quite a bit of water :-)

So...to make a long story boring, I take all of my B1G1 Sobe coupons, along with a few others that match up with the mega sale items. As the cashier is ringing up my sobe, I ask how much she is ringing the sobe for ( I was going to be kind enough to enter the price on the coupons for her, as I know B1G1s are a special kind of extra time consuming hassle for cashiers, and I wanted to help expedite the process). She tells me that she is deducting the coupons @ .47 ea. ??

I try to argue at that point that the price of the sobe is .97 ea., to which her reply is: "But you are getting them for .47 ea. after the mega sale price, so I can only take off .47"

So I say: "So what if I only bought two of them, instead of multiples of eight?"...."Well, then", she says, "I would ring them up at the regular sale price."

Meh, I was too tired to argue, but has anyone else encountered this, or is she just making up the rules as she goes?

Ive gone to 3 stores and each of them has handled it thier own (different) way. Back to the first store a second time and they changed the way that they did it. Its nauseating.
