Updated Kmart Double Coupon Event!!


        In case you haven't heard or missed my [last blog] about the event that KMart is hosting "Double Coupon Days" here is the official


that they released. I emailed them a couple days ago and since I'm in San Diego, I was confirmed that both KMarts, South Bay area, are participating. The list is very disorganized and for you fellow Californians our state starts after page 26.

       Hope your store is participating!! Now we have to wait and see what great deals we can come up with. I will try to keep everyone updated on info. =]

My Walgreens Trip 3/9

     Just came back from Walgreens and like always I feel like I could of done better on my deals. The babies stayed home with Grandma and so it was just my Hunny & I. Usually I plan my transactions in my little pocket book and have my coupons in order. Here is what [my plan] was at first, but things changed last minute.
     I couldn't do all 4 transactions so I only stuck with the first 3. And here is what I came home with:
(2) Chips Ahoy  15.25 oz. 2/$5
(6) Oscar Meyer Deli Fresh Shaved Meat 9 oz. 2/$5
(6) Nestle Crunch Chocolate Bar 1.55 oz. $.49
(2) Coffee-Mate "French Vanilla" Creamers 16 oz. 2/$3
Swiffer Sweeper WetRefill 12pk $3.99

Downy Liquid Softener $3.99
Febreze Air Effects $2.46
Sense & Spray Starter Kit $5.99
Johnson & Johnsons "No More Tangles" Shampoo 13 oz. $4.49
Johnson & Johnsons "No More Tangles" Spray10 oz. $3.99
Johnson & Johnsons Head-2-Toe Wash 15 oz. $4.49
Johnson & Johnsons Baby Lotion 15 oz. $4.49
 
     Usually they have in stock the items I plan on buying so I don't have to think of a Plan B. But this time they didn't have any of the Oreo Cakesters & Johnson & Johnsons Baby Shampoo. So my hunny said we should just get the Johnson & Johnsons Head2Toe Wash instead (same value) and get Chips Ahoy instead of the Oreo Cakesters. At first I was like, NO! I have everything planned out so it's just going to mess everything up! I knew I didn't have a coupon for the cookies so I was like, Nope I'm not going to do it. He finally convinced me for it and in away it worked out better.

Last year I went to there last Double Event but it's when I first started to coupon so I didn't get as much stuff as I would of wanted.
