Manager at one of the stores I go to is really not happy about them doing it for another week. Some of the items weren't keyed right. So watch your ricola cough drops. They rang up wrong.

Biggest oop to date but I had 10min left til Midnight and my cashier was one of my unfavorites. I didn't want her to deny them at 12:01. :P

$11 and change but received 10 cats for .50 for the Dole. They don't double here but makes it $6 for 10 sodas, 8 tunas, 32 cans of fruit, 2pkgs of chicken and 2 lettuces. Very happy. .12 an item.

Should have gotten 2.50/2.00/1.00 but system down due to remodeling so they told me (11thSt. Kroger)...time to call Cat Mktg.

Young cashier girl got nervous at end since Rolaids Q beeped....so she had me waiting until she talked to cashier next door since she didn't want to get in trouble for taking too many Qs....she called supervisor and he said as long as no more than 3 like Qs...but since I had not given her the cats yet...I gave them and of course all beeped so they/he got a bit annoyed and as I left he reprinted my long receipt...oh well hope he had fun studying it!

Ok, this is my 3rd trip this week to Kroger and I am going to make many more in the next week and 1/2 since we got more Carnation EM Qs and Kleenex Qs in the papers today. Yay! My husband thinks I'm nuts with all my stockpiling. Went to Dollar General today and came back with only 22 cans of Libby's veggies.

Anyway, this was a small transaction since I really only went in to get pie crust and came out with 11 items.

1 pkg Kroger pie crust (they were out of Pillsbury rolled pie crust, so no Q)
3 boxes of Kleenex used 50c/3 Q (doubled)
2 Chex mix used 2 x .50/1 (doubled)
1 box BC potatoes used IP .40/ (doubled)
4 cans Carn evp milk used 2 x .50/2 (doubled)
$5 Mega
$1 Uncle Bens cat q
.75 Dole cat q
Total OOP = $3.14

Not too bad for a mini quick trip. :)
