Diaper Deal

I have a pretty good diaper deal that I found in a magazine and thought I would share.

If you order $49 of diapers at http://www.diapers.com/, you can enter code PARENTSAPR10 to get $10 off and free shipping as well.

Something else I have learned about Diapers.com is that you can send in your manufacture coupons via the mail to them which they will enter on your account. Click on coupons on the left sidebar for all the details. That way, you can maximize the use of coupons and get a great diaper deal as well.

Shipped right to your door is a good thing!

It happened again...

Bear with me folks, but I am down for the count yet again. Strep throat has entered our house for the THIRD time this year and it got me. I am taking it easy, resting and trying to recouperate. Forgive me, but the blog is going to slide this week.

I hope you are enjoying some Kmart doubling and other coupon finds.

My Kmart trip, I'll probably do another trip!

First off, a little birdie told me that she was able to do more than one transaction on her card. I tried it and was able to do two transactions today. However, the register will NOT allow you to double more than 5 coupons in a transaction. It will only double the first 5 coupons you hand over, so be sure to plan accordingly.

Here is what I did, with final cost too...

Transaction #1:

2 Tampax pearl $4.49, used $2 MQ- $0.49 net each
1 Ziplock container $2.50, used $1- net $0.50
1 Kellogg fruit snack $2, used $1 IP- net free

Transaction #2

1 Selsun shampoo $6.79, used $1 MQ- net $4.79
1 Tampax pearl $4.49, used $2 MQ- net $0.49
3 Ziplock sandwich bags $2.50, used $1/2 mQ- net $3 for 2 boxes (note: these were mismarked on the shelf but they gave it to me for that price), plus has coupon to get one box free when you buy 2 (not doubled)
1 Kelloggs fruit snacks $2, used $1 IP- net free
2 Poptarts $2, used $1/2 IP- net $1 per box

On another note, they have a bunch of winter clothes clearance that you should check out. I got brand new snowpants for $5.99! Super cheap!

A Reader's Kmart success

I've been following your blog for about 3 months now and thought I would share that I did stop at Kmart today!

My transaction consisted of:

3 Gillette Men's Bodywash 2/$8 = $12
4 Ziplock Containers 2/$5 = $10
5 Dove Deoderants $3.79 ea = $18.95

Q's used in the order I used them

3 $2 Off Gillette Mens Bodywash Doubled $12 Making Gillette Free
2 $1.50 Ziplock containers Doubled $6 Making containers $1 ea. package
5 $2 Dove IP Q's Not doubled = $10

Total OOP was $15.79 plus I got a $5 off your next order, $5 off $25 H&B purchase, $5 off $50 consumables or H & B purchase.

Taking in consideration I have plans to use the $5 OYO and the $5 off $25 to lower OOP on my next trip(s) I feel like this trip ended up costing me $5.79 All in all I feel it was worth the trip!!!!

Kmart Doubles Update



Kmart doubles start tomorrow. Despite the fact that it is not anywhere on their ad that I could find, the Portage store is participating. But there are a few rules.....
  1. Dates are 4/4/10-4/10/10
  2. Coupons value up to $2 will be doubled
  3. Doubling coupons will only happen when you use your rewards card (can sign up in store)
  4. Kmart coupons will not double
  5. There is a limit of 5 coupons per customer per day (I guess they will track due to the rewards card)
  6. Only the first 5 coupons presented will be doubled.
I'm not sure if it will be worth my while to go, I'm still undecided. Only 5 coupons puts quite a limit on it, and multiple transactions are now out of the equation.

Will it be worth your time?

If anyone does go and finds any great deals, email me so I can share. Good luck.

Pierce's Update, Walmart Price Matching

Today I learned some great news at Pierce's! You now get a 5 point credit to your rewards point total when you bring your own bags! If you use cloth bags regularly, be sure they give you the credit!

Also~ Walmart will price match ads which we know. But thanks to reader Stephanie (which I did confirm by trying it) you should know they will also price Target in addition to Pierce's and Piggly Wiggly! Be sure to take the ad with you so they can verify it and separate those items as well. Wow, I guess I may get into Walmart more often now.
