UPDATE with Kmart and refund....

SO....I am a bit perterbed with Kmart or actually the people that they having working behind the service desk. I went in today and brought my receipt as well as the breakdown of what each item should have cost me and then what my total was THEN I also had what they had overcharged me. WELL you would have sworn that I was demanding that these ladies pay me out of their own pockets (it started with one, then turned into three and THEN the finally called the GM before anything got accomplished) anywho...two of them were VERY rude and acting like I did something wrong. THEN when I told them that the cashier errored when she did not select all of the items (the problem came from coupons that were for multiple items) they said, "Oh that's not how that works." To which I replied, "Yes otherwise it will not deduct the appropriate amount. You would have sworn that I just asked them to complete brain surgery...they were baffled to say the least even with the breakdown RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEM! Finally when the nicer of the the three called the GM he said to refund me my money. I was pleased that someone finally had some common sense. Before I went to shop the one said that she wanted to check out my items PERSONALLY to make sure that there was no funny business, like I was making this up! I was quite offended and had I not driven so far to get there I would have just left. I will be filling out the survey on the bottom of my reciept as well as contacting the corporate office.

It even gets BETTER! So while my friend and I were shopping (she had never been to a double coupon days so she wanted to check each isle to make sure that she could see what she could all get a good bargain on) one of the other ever so rude ladies (rude cashier #2) was following us (it was OBVIOUS) and glaring at us...SERIOUSLY was that necessary?? NO! We are paying customers and I felt harassed to say the least! Then I did not see the rude cashier #1 so I went to another lady and make 2 small purchases (which I scored on!) when I was completing the second one rude cashier #1 came over and watched my coupons like a hawk....THEN low and behold the problem arose with the coupon for 2 items. It was NOT entered correctly so, it only took off $2.50 instead of $4.00...I pointed this out to rude cashier #1 and she try to argue and make up some explanation. I stated that this was the case with the first receipt and that is where all of the $7.75 that was overcharged came from. Finally she gave in and manually took the extra amount off of $1.50...needless to say this was by far my WORST Kmart experience EVER! AND I WILL NEVER GO TO THIS KMART AGAIN! Ugh! (I will share my great deals though...I think that is why they were so grumpy. Well it is NOT my fault I know how to use coupons!)

Kmart

So I am planning to go and make a trip back to Kmart tomorrow to reclaim my $7.75 from the previous transaction that I was overcharged. I also finally got my $2 secret coupons in the mail so that I can stock up on that (since it is my most favorite :) Then I was going to pick up some Covergirl eyeshadow since $0.99 is a great price. As well as a few other things to make my total $50 before coupons. Then I can use the $5 off $50 coupon and my $3 coupon that printed from my trip the other day. I don't plan on spending very much, though I do plan on doing 2 transactions so that I can get a bunch of deodorant and Covergirl make-up...THEN I will be able to mail in the receipts and get 2 GIFT CARDS!!! Yippee!! Can't wait...(I'll just use them on another double coupon extravaganza, ha! I'll post a picture tomorrow, which won't be til a tad later as we have church tomorrow evening.

Today @ Target

So I went to go ol' Target today to pick up somethings that I had coupons for that expire at the end of the month. I got some pretty decent scores. I purchased 2 Bolt DVD's for only $10.99 EACH! One is for the boys and then one is for their friend's birthday party that they have to go to on Friday. That was pretty much my whole total of $32.24! Here is a breakdown of what I got:

2 Bolt DVD's $10.99 ($5 IP cpn)
3 boxes of Hostess 100 calorie snacks $1.74 each ($0.75 IP cpn & $0.50 target printable)
2 Gillette Trial Shave Gels $0.42 each used ($0.55 cpn manuf. cpn)
4 Gillette Face Wash/Body Wash FREE ($2 manuf. cpn)
2 Schick Razors $0.99 after $5 gift card ($4 manuf. cpn)
1 Shout bright n white $3.29 ($1.50 manuf. cpn)
4 Dove trial deodorants FREE ($1.50/2 cpn)
1 Huggies gentle care wipe refill $0.99 ($5 IP cpn)
6 Johnson's Buddies FREE (sending my nieces some with their b-day presents) ($1 manuf. cpn)
1 Dawn Foam $1.00 ($1.50 home mailer cpn)

So I saved $49.35 plus the $5 gift card...not too bad since all was less than the original price of the 2 DVD's. Not a HUGE haul but I still got a lot of good items and covered the birthday present for the party.

FREECYCLE

Freecycle is a great nonprofit organization that links you with other members of your community to help give and get items for FREE! In order to keep usable items out of landfills. One man's junk may be another may's treasure (isn't that how the old saying goes). I heard about this from my older sister and figured that I would check it out. It is GREAT! I have given away several things that were cluttering my closets (to make room for new things of course...lol) and received some nice things as well. I have gotten crown molding for my kitchen(my kitchen has been in process for quite some time now...moulding is one of the last things I needed YAY!), some cleaning supplies BRAND NEW (how cool) and even an exercise machine!

All you need to do is sign up in your local community, then it takes about a day or so to be approved. Once approved you will receive messages into your inbox daily. All you need to do is reply to the things that interest you. You will receive a message directly if they select you to receive the item. You can list 1 WANT ad per week with 3 items in it. Say you need a TV or couch, you would compose an ad saying "WANTED: TV" then type a short description. You wouldn't believe how many people give away TV's! It's worth checking out!

Caregivers Marketplace

If you have babies you should check this place out, even if not there could be items on their list that you can get reimbursed for. You can get for example $0.75/pack of Huggies and $1/box of Glucerna cereal. It is worth checking out! You just download a form, check off them items (up to 5 per request) and drop it in the mail. Nice and simple! Also if you sign up online ahead of time they will give you an account number so that you can get your money back faster. So far I have gotten a little over $25 back and I am sending out more receipts tomorrow!

Kmart SAVED $163.72!! (so far anyway...lol)

So I ventured out today to Kmart's DOUBLE COUPON days. The closest to me was in Ripon, Wisconsin. It took me approx. 1 hr and 30 minutes or so to get there. A few of the items that I was looking for were gone already, but they had most everything on my list. I was a bit disappointed to say the least when the cashier told me my total (initially) of $78.16?!?!?! I was like HUH? Yes my original total before ALL coupons was $225.86 BUT I knew that amount was wrong. I had first questioned the cashier when I noticed her pressing the buttons on the screen and asked if those were the items that I had purchased (which I later realized WERE infact my items). She told me "no" but that if she did not press the correct button then it would not take off the correct amount. I looked over my receipt before I left (good idea if you live far away like me) and noticed that firstly I was charged $1.99 for 2 milks that were supposed to be $0.50 each, so that was my first problem to fix. Then I scanned my receipt and realized that SEVERAL of my coupons had NOT doubled to the tune of $13.00!! So I also had that fixed before I left the store. Something was still sitting funny with me, so once I got home I checked my receipt against my list (which I had intentionally written down the coupon amounts) and realized that they still owe me $7.75. I promptly called and took the woman's name whom I spoke with and will be going back later this week to get it adjusted. SO PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU CHECK YOUR RECEIPTS BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE STORE SO THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN TO YOU. Once I get this fixed I will have saved $171.44 and spent $54.42, not bad not bad at all... (I will post a picture shortly...)

Kmart Double Coupons 3/22/09-3/28/09

YAY!!!!!!! kmart is doing double coupon days again this week 3/22/09-3/28/09! Last month when they had this I have to say I got some pretty good deals. I was a little bummed as none of my local Kmarts were participating, but we were on our way to Wisconsin Dells and passed through Portage and they were doing the double coupons. They double coupons up to $2 (so a $2 coupon would then turn into a $4 coupon.) I got some great items CHEAP and other FREE...you do have to do your homework and get organized for a shopping adventure of this sort...or your head will be spinning...lol They let you double up to 25 coupons, PLUS if you spend $50 BEFORE coupons you can use this coupon and save $5 BUT you HAVE to make sure that this is the FIRST coupon that you hand over to the cashier or you will not be able to use it.

This time my best friend and I will be going to Oshkosh, which is about an hour or so away from where we live to shop. You may want to call your store ahead of time and see if they will double internet printable coupons, as some will and some will not. It is best to check first not that you do all of that work and then come away empty handed. Here and here are some great match ups by Hip 2 Save and Hot Coupon World I will add more link ups as I find them.

The stores that I found that are participating here in Wisconsin are Oshkosh, Portage, Ripon, Fort Atkinson(their ad said doubling $1 coupons NOT $2), Stevens Point, Janesville, Mauston and Kenosha. Those were the ones I found anyway. If you know of any others let me know and I will be sure to post em! You can also go to kmart.com and type in your zip code if your store's flyer says double coupons then your store is particpating.
