It's True. K-Mart to Double Coupons to $2 June 7-13!
The word is that even if you call K-Mart, they won't know if they are having double coupons or not! But, I went to the online flier that starts at 0800 in the morning in my zip code, and IT says double coupons up to $2.
That means any of your $1 coupons will double to $2. Unlike our grocery stores where a $1 coupon is worth only $1. I like to stock up on pet food, small containers of laundry detergent, personal items, and bath items.
If you want to find out if your state is having the doubles, look up how to locate a K-Mart store, enter your zip code for the weekly ad and actually look at the ad online. Front page, lower part of the page should indicate coupon status.
I'm finally signing off for the night.
Sweet dreams of Good Deals and Free Meals,

Spent 74 cents! Saved $37. Lost My Coupons!
Tonight at Kroger, I spent 74 cents and saved $37.00. Whooo Whooo!
The cashier said, "I'm going to tell my mom about you!"
I wish Buffy was in town because the Pillsbury Crescent rolls were on sale for $.10 (10 cents) each. Not only did I get a lot of rolls, (and left a lot on the shelf for someone else), but I used all my Pillsbury coupons as if I were paying full price. And, those coupons were tripled tonight! You never know when you're going to need unexpected coupons. My sister says she always carries hers in the car. I truck mine in and out, so I can keep them updated easier.
At Giant Eagle, I "tested" two different coupons. When they went through, I returned and used the rest of those coupons for the same brand of food, but not the same item. One was $1.50 off Steamfresh frozen Meals for Two on frozen Steamfresh veges that didn't say Meals for Two. (Got them for 50 cents each.) The other was for cookies. Same brand. Different cookies! Sometimes you get by with not getting the exact same thing the coupon is for, but MOST of the time you don't!
Unfortunately, I left one of my coupon containers with all my coupons in the grocery cart at Giant Eagle and didn't miss it until I got to Kroger. Frantically I dashed back to Giant Eagle, but no one had seen it. I searched all the carts outside, but it was almost dark and I didn't see it anywhere. As I was walking back to my car, I spotted it in a cart I had already looked in!!!!
Boy was I happy! And thankful, as usual.
So, it was a good ending, and happy, happy shopping.
Stay with me. We'll get some great grocery shopping done!

Buffy Provides More Electronic Savings Links
Buffy has already left us a comment in response to my posting Quadruple Your Savings alerting us to some additional places to add more electronic savings in addition to coupons! (Or even without coupons!)
I don't know if you have read the comment section of my posting, but in case you haven't, she says others are www.shortcuts.com , www.PGesaver.com , and something Kroger also has called Bringing Hope to the Table. Here is the link for that one: http://www.bringinghopetothetable.com/Sites/BringingHope/Page/HomePage
I actually loaded some items from the "table" site, but when I got to the store they weren't on sale and I was really tired, so I don't think I got that far.
Something that really helps is to make of list of what's on sale that you want to buy with your coupons, cellfire or Bringing Hope to the Table. I put the list sticking out of my purse as I walk around the store also checking for blinkies!!!!
Should any of these links not work, please do a google search for the correct links. Don't give up! Ask if you run into questions.
Hope this helps many of you enjoy shopping as a Professional Couponer!

Quadruple Your Savings! Step by Step
My friend, Buffy, has taught me a lot about saving with coupons, and I always thank her when I find great deals. (If not in person, always in my mind.)
One thing that I've been a little slow on, is getting set up with something she told me about called Cellfire. I THINK this is for Kroger stores only. I'll explain what it does, then show you step-by-step how to make it work for you. Keep in mind, I've been trying to do this for weeks!
Kroger has a website where you can load listed coupons electronically onto your Kroger store card. Then when you purchase that item, it automatically gives you credit at check out. You can still use your coupon and get double through 99 cents - or triple through 50 cents this week. Items with a coupon for more than 50 cents will simply double as usual this week, plus the addition of Cellfire if you'd added that item.
Okay, here's how it works.
With your Kroger card in hand, go to this link to register with cellfire. For some reason, you need to enter a cell phone number, your birth year, and the number from the back of your Kroger card. (They are free at the store if you don't have one.) Maybe I've made it too complicated, but this is how it worked for me.
Cellfire registration: https://www.cellfire.com/login.php?lo
The directions seem easy, but I, as usual, made it more difficult than I needed to!
You will need to add the number from the back of your Kroger card (no spaces), cell phone (xxx-xxx-xxxx), and year of birth, when asked.
After you are registered, go to Deals, and the weekly items that get extra credit should pop up. Click the ones you think you might buy (with coupons or not), and expect that amount of credit to show up on your receipt when you get that item at Kroger. (They do expire after awhile.)
For a test, I loaded Sargento (sp) cheese for 50 cents off. I had a paper coupon for that cheese also. And, it was also on sale at Kroger. When I bought the cheese, my paper coupon doubled (it was for more than 50 cents), and when I checked the receipt, the Cellfire 50 cents off was posted there also.
This week, you can do that with those tasty Betty Crocker Warm Delights (1-minute, single person, brownie) that cost $2.15 (not on sale). I used a 50 cent coupon that tripled to 1.50 off, then the deduction of 50 Cellfire cents and the total cost was 15 cents for my Warm Delight!
(I think the triple coupon deals end on Sunday.)
You can only load one Cellfire coupon for each item, so I have to go back to Kroger if I want to use Cellfire for the Warm Delights again.
Hope this helps make your shopping experience even more fun!
