Meijer ~ Question: Help w/Meijer receipt.....

[pinkfr0g]

Hello I am new and this is my 2nd ever trip to Meijer. The receipt is very confusing to me. I was wondering if anyone could help me figure them out.
1. I had my OOP figured lower. Do they have it correct.
2. How many items did I actually buy? It says either more or less than I brought home.
3. What is with the the top of some of these receipts that have number@ .00 promo .00, I do not know if this was a product that was free or what?
4. The coupons are different than I gave them some more and some less and there are more than I gave them.
5. What does extra coupon mean?
6. I was suppose to have purchased 90 of the 10/10 get 11th free, I am not even sure if this worked out.....did it?
7.I am not familier with most of these products, was this a pretty good deal? it is almost half of sale price OOP, I figured it should have been lower.
8. How did I get $.50 back on the one with 2 chex mix? They would only let me do 5 at a time, well the coupons didn't work out that way so it was 4 and then 4 and the 2, I had it figured if they would have letm e do them all in one that I would have owed them $.70.
I did have a 2.oo off next visit from previous trip that I used on one of these and then I got a few more maybe totaling around 5.oo that I used and I
was only figuring on using 1 and so total doesn't seem right....
Thanks in advance for any insight you can give.

When I try to open the thumbnail pic, I still can't make out anything since it is so small, so I can only answer some of your questions.


1. I had my OOP figured lower. Do they have it correct.

2. How many items did I actually buy? It says either more or less than I brought home.

3. What is with the the top of some of these receipts that have number@ .00 promo .00, I do not know if this was a product that was free or what? In my experience, this is how Meijer Meal Box coupons scan. They show up as .00. You have to physically watch that the dollar deducts from your total. That's the only way I know if they worked or not. Pain, yes.

4. The coupons are different than I gave them some more and some less and there are more than I gave them.

5. What does extra coupon mean? I am assuming your store doubles?? That's what the extra coupon is - the part that is doubled.

6. I was suppose to have purchased 90 of the 10/10 get 11th free, I am not even sure if this worked out.....did it? If you bought 90 items, 8 of those should have been free. I have heard that with coupons though, sometimes this gets messed up. I don't have this problem as I haven't bought a ton of the 10/$10 get the 11th free items. Perhaps someone else who has experienced that issue can elaborate.

7.I am not familier with most of these products, was this a pretty good deal? it is almost half of sale price OOP, I figured it should have been lower. Well, it depends. Will you use these products or did you just buy them because they were on sale?

8. How did I get $.50 back on the one with 2 chex mix? They would only let me do 5 at a time, well the coupons didn't work out that way so it was 4 and then 4 and the 2, I had it figured if they would have letm e do them all in one that I would have owed them $.70. I'm not sure I totally understand this. But I can say that my Meijer only doubles two like coupons. Anything more than that is taken off at face value. I also know that the General Mills coupons are having issues too. Something about only two GM coupons will double, even if you have different coupons. Ex. If you use two Chex coupons $.50/2 and two Progresso coupons $.50/2, only two of them will double. I also have no experience with this as I don't buy too many GM products with coupons, so someone else may be able to elaborate more. If you bought multiple GM products with multiple coupons, this could significantly up your total out of pocket.

1. I had my OOP figured lower. Do they have it correct.
Without knowing what q's you used this would be hard to answer. Did you include the fact that some orders had OYNO q's?
2. How many items did I actually buy? It says either more or less than I brought home.
3. What is with the the top of some of these receipts that have number@ .00 promo .00, I do not know if this was a product that was free or what?
Like Kval07 posted that is where Mealbox and OYNO promos show -not the $ amount just the fact that you used them.
4. The coupons are different than I gave them some more and some less and there are more than I gave them.
5. What does extra coupon mean? That store doubled some of your q's.
6. I was suppose to have purchased 90 of the 10/10 get 11th free, I am not even sure if this worked out.....did it?
From what I can see you got 5 Free items-you can count them as they would show up as "free Item". 4 one one receipt 1 on another. I do not see where you purchased 90 of the 10/$10.

7.I am not familier with most of these products, was this a pretty good deal? it is almost half of sale price OOP, I figured it should have been lower. Did you count your OYNO- you should have had several one for the BC frosting and another for the Fruit Rolls ups.

8. How did I get $.50 back on the one with 2 chex mix? Overage on q's is a YMMV they generally speaking do not give an overage on them as the computer would beep so the cashier knows something is costing less than what q's you have. I am surprised they would give you money back on them. Also the reason to separate them into 2 different orders is that it looks like they only double 2 like q's the rest come off at face value -.50 each. The Mealbox you used on all of the Chex mix look fine. Mealbox will normally come off right after the item as -.XX. They would only let me do 5 at a time, well the coupons didn't work out that way so it was 4 and then 4 and the 2, If they were on one order it would have rang up 10 @ .97 = 9.70 -5.00 Mealbox -1.00 -1.00 (2 .50 doubled) then rest of 3 q's at -1.50 = 1.20 assuming those q's were .50 off 2.
I am not sure if that was the q you used, so breaking the Chex Mix up would let you get them for free instead. I don't understand the doing 5 at a time part.
I had it figured if they would have letm e do them all in one that I would have owed them $.70.
I did have a 2.oo off next visit from previous trip that I used on one of these and then I got a few more maybe totaling around 5.oo that I used and I
was only figuring on using 1 and so total doesn't seem right.... On my receipts the Meijer OYNO come off as either Meijer Coupon or Grocery-I might assume that on your receipt with the Yogurt, Chex mix and fruit snacks there were several used that say Meijer Coupon, Grocery and Checkout Coupon.
Thanks in advance for any insight you can give.

Couple of things too-if you separated your 90 items into different orders then unless you hit them in multiples of 11 you will not get the free one. On the receipt with the Biscuits it looks like you purchased 45 items of the 10/$10 so 4 free is correct. Chex Mix was not part of the 10/$10, not sure if you counted them.

I was able to copy the receipts into Word and make it a little bigger but they are really hard to read but from what I can see your receipts look fine.
I think you did very good!

2. How many items did I actually buy? It says either more or less than I brought home.

The mealbox coupons when scanned count as an item for some reason. If you add up the items you bought then add the number of mealbox promos from the top, it should equal the total it says on the bottom. I don't know about it showing less than you brought home.
