Wal Mart Shopping Trip and My 2nd attempt at the Target Catalinas!
heres what my shopping trip consisted of....
Price Matched items-
(4) Coca-Cola Brand Products $1.00 (priced match to consumers ad)
-MC $2.00 off any (2) Coca-Cola Products when you buy (2) Nabisco Products (as I looked at my receipt the cashier failed to take off this coupon which is annoying since that would have made for 2 free liter cokes.)
(2) Diggiornio Pizzas 2/$10 (price matched to consumers ad)
(4) WhoNu Cookies $2.78
(1) $1.00 off coupons
(2) B1G1 free coupons
=$3.56/4 or .89 each
(3) Dole Fruit Bites $2.98 each
(3) MC $ 1.00 off 1
= $5.94/3 or $1.98 each
1 Wal-Mar Brand Torilla Chips $1.48
Kikkomann Soy Sauce $1.72
MC $1.00 off 1
= $.72
Instant Oatmeal $1.42
(6) Old El Paso Taco Seasonings $.78
(2) MC $.60 off 3
=$3.48/6 or .58 each
(2) Nabisco Weatthins $2.50 each
MC $1.00 off 2
= $4.00/2 or $2.00 each
(3) Revlon Nail Clippers $1.42
(1) Target Catalina $2.00 off any 1 revlon tool
(1) Target Catalina $5.00 off any 2 revlon tools
= FREE + $2.74 Credit! (I'll explain how i got them to FINALLY accept these)
(3) Weber Grill Seasonings $2.58
(3) MC $1.00 off any 1
= $4.74/3 or $1.58 each
My subtotal was $62.56 and i paid $40.36 OOP so a total savings of $22.20. I would have saved ANOTHER $2.00 if i noticed my coke+nabisco coupon hadn't scanned.
But in regards to the nail clippers, i stood firm with the cashier and the Customer Service Manager (different one from before) and showed them Wal-Marts official coupon policy where it describes Catalinas. He was hesitiant at first and kept saying it wasn't the same but finally after reading it and looking at the coupon he said i was right, and that he now knows what a catalina is. (So glad your CSM knows your policies-insert sarcasm)

Always Check your Reciept! -Walgreens
Unfortunatly they were out of the toothpaste that was on sale so we picked up a few other things. this is how my transaction(s) played out.
Trans #1
(2) Scrunci Hair ties Sale 2/$3
+#RR for next purchase
=$3 + $3 RR
Trans #2
(4) 3 Musketeers Truffle Crisp Bars Sale $.49
(9) Trident vitality Gum packs Sale $.79
(2) Skinny Cow Cluster Snacks Sale 2/$1.79
(1) Laffy Taffy $.15
=$11.18 (w/tax) before coupons
Coupons-
(2) $.50 off (2) 3 Musketeers bars
(3) $.200 off (3) Trident packs
(1) B1G1Free Skinny Cow snacks
$3.00 RR from trans #1
Well when my transaction was first rang up, my total was $5.32 which seemed high to me and the cashier said he scanned all of my coupons so i went with it. But when i went outside and examined my reciept, he fail to scan (2) of my $2.00 off coupons and (1) .50 off coupons. So i went back inside, they voided my 2nd transaction and re-rang everything up and my total OOP was $.98! Much better!
Moral of the story-check your reciept before you leave! its easier to fix if they've still got easy access to your coupons and remeber what you've bought.
I'm going to try going back today at lunch to see if they've re-stocked the sale toothpaste and get more 3 musketeer bars! I'm sure the walgreens people will be happy to see me :)

happy saving!
Pupalup
While Groupon and those others are great, more of the time the deals are for OKC or Tulsa and its not always the most convenient for those in Stillwater. Pupalup is great because it offers deals for Stillwater and the surrounding areas of Payne county. There is also an option for Bartlesville,OK to receive deals.
There have been deals for various resturants, wedding invitations and massages.
I just got an email today for a great deal for Koyoto Japanese Resturant $10 for $20 worth of food! You can use it on sushi or hibachi,
Check it out here
