Kmart Tips

Here are some tips and scenarios for your Kmart trip.

1. Kmart is now accepting Internet printables. I read this press release today. When I got to the store I asked the cashier and sure enough they are taking them.

2. If you find something is out of stock ask an employee to check in the back. Many times they just haven't gotten time to go around and restock all the items.

3. Have the cashier scan each coupon right after it's corresponding product. If they don't you may get less for your doubled amount. For example, if you purchase Herbal Essence for $3 and used a $1.50 coupon, then the additional doubled amount would be $1.50. If the cashier scans a $1.89 product to go with the Herbal Essence coupon, then it would only be doubled .59 more, so you would be losing out on almost $1 of your double value.

4. Why is this? Well they WILL NOT give you overage. Did that make sense? Like when I bought Kotex it rang up at $1.29 I used a .75 coupon. They only gave me a .54 credit for my double to keep me from getting overage.

5. You can only use coupons with a value of $2 and under. If you try to use a $3 coupon for Herbal Essence they will not give you $2 for the double. They will only give you the $3 off once and nothing else. (Sorry Becky, my bad!)

Here is what I got....

Use $2 coupon from the 1/18PG
Final cost .50!

Kotex Pantiliner 18 count 1.29
.75/1 02-22-09 SS

I put this in my cart and then reminded myself I don't need toothbrushes I have a drawer full from dental conventions. So I gave the coupon and the brushes to another shopper. I am slowly learning that even if is a good price, if you don't need it, don't buy it!

Oral-B Adult Manual Toothbrush $4.49
$2 on Any Twin Pack (Pulsar, Artica, CrossAction, CrossAction Vitalizer, Advantage, Indicator) - 02-08-09 PG

Not much huh? I was on my lunch break and had less than an hour, I spent time chatting with other couponers and didn't stay very focused. Oh well, I learned a few things and met some nice people.

These were items on my list today. I did not get them b/c I could not find them, I did not have enough time, they were cleaned out and most important some of the prices did not match. So I HATE to give a few wrong prices here but I did not have the wherewithal to write down the prices. I tried to cut out most of those from this list for you.
