Re: My stores are still saying that they're not participating....
Finally, they figured it out (after I called another store and they happened to have seen their email about it). I'm sure corporate would like to hear that these stores don't pay attention to the email that is sent out.
Here's what I got for $1.17:

I went Wednesday and got one daughter a swim suit, dress and top, another daughter a top, myself 2 tops, 2 blazers to wear with the tops and a hoodie...all at 2.99 each, so for 180+ worth of clothing, I paid 29 something! Plus I really needed the stylish blazers and tops to get out of my "I sit at home on the computer all day in my pj's looking up coupon deals" look! LOL At least when I do that I can wear my new hoodie! It's blue and will match my flannel jammies!
I put my new coupon knowledge to the test today for the first time. I went to Kmart and my total BEFORE coupons was $106, but AFTER coupons it was only $43. Not bad for a newbie huh? This included FREE items: Sunsilk shampoo/conditioner x5 (FREE!), Sunsilk styling produts x5(FREE), and a small container of TUMS(FREE). I've never left a store with FREE stuff so it was actually fun, and now I'm addicted to this new coupon world.
The cashier was so excited for me and said she wanted to start shopping with me. Too funny ! I think she maybe made some errors because once I came home the numbers don't quite add up..(actually work in my favor). Total I should have saved in coupons is 73.51. (Yay !) My total with tax was 22.71. I was very excited considering I am new to this couponing thing. I think I did a great job and hubby was very excited to see what all I brought home. And even more excited when he heard how cheap it was ! Thanks girls for the inspiration !!!
Re: Some pics from ouble coupons! ETA: I meant double coupons! LOL
Here's what I got from my second run yesterday. I actually paid more for tax than I did oop for everything else.
Total before q's 101.something
ac = 13.19 (tax 7.67)
and I got a $2 cat!!!
So I first must say that I've only been collecting coupons for two months now, and I haven't had any major freebie scores until now. I must first thank all of you who have shopped before me and posted the great deals so that all I had to do was pick them up!
I went to K-Mart twice, yesterday morning and today...I got everything I wanted on my list, and only saw two others with coupons the entire three hours I was there today!
