^^ ugh JCE2011 you and your set em ups.

For those of you who don't read the last posts of a page my question was is there a way to see HT's next week weekly deal's on like the day before like FL has the option to do. I was wondering so I could start picking my coupons for triples

I ranted so I will post a deal:

Harris Teeter:
Mahatma Rice 5 oz packet (buy 2) .89 each, 2 for 1.78
Use .75/2 RP 3/1 RP or 4/26 RP
Final FREE

Wacky Mac Veggie Spirals $1.59
Use .75/1 printable; .75/1 5/10 SS
Final FREE

5/26/2009 11:53:52 PM

^afaik, they don't...they are usually even kinda slow getting it up on wednesday(i've checked in the am, and it wasnt updated yet)...sometimes ppl get ads before they come out and scan them...best bet is to check HCW(hotcouponworld) and slickdeals...if its not there its probably not on the net yet...if u need exact links let me know!(there are specific threads on both of the sites i mentioned for HT)

5/26/2009 11:56:34 PM

Wow triples again this week!

5/27/2009 7:31:59 PM

Get a $10 target GC if you buy two venus embrace or gillette fusion razors. I have one coupon for $2/any venus razor...so some of yall probably do, too. The razors are $8. If you have two of these coupons and get two of the embraces, after the GC, it's $1/razor.

I keep seeing it mentioned around that some stores accept expired coupons, so dont throw them away. Yet no one seems to know what stores do and dont. Does the UPC on the coupon not contain the expiration information as well? I just want to know if its worth holding on to these older coupons, or if its time to purge.

^Also, they have a $5 GC if you buy $10 SmartOnes TV dinners, which are $1.80 this week...not as good as Lean Cuisine, but they have a few that are good. Theres a $1/5 coupon on SmartOnes website too, so your total would be $16 for 10 dinners and a $5 GC (if you remember to make a copy of the coupon first).

I have yet to tackle this question.
And I think that's the kind of thing that, if it made it onto slickdeals or couponmom or some such, would change very quickly. So you're not likely to find an answer online that's worth much.

It looks like the Food Lion (at least the one on Avent Ferry) is clearing out space for new stuff. Basic Crest toothpaste is 99¢ from $3.29 and one of the dishwashing detergents is $2.12 from $3.something.

Can anyone tell me what a good price on frozen tuna steaks are/lb?

6/7/2009 3:10:20 PM

^food lion is definitely doing something right now. last time i was there, i got a FL coupon with my receipt for $1 off my next purchase of anything in the store and a free gallon of milk.

it was awesome.

6/7/2009 3:50:33 PM

bttt!

6/17/2009 5:05:59 AM

^^ If you buy 4 or more Food Lion brand products, you get back $0.25 for each one. So if you buy 4 tunas for $0.67 apiece, it ends up being $2.68 - $1.00 = $1.68. Not too shabby.

6/17/2009 8:51:34 PM

Awesome deals to be had this week and next.

THIS WEEK at CVS - Buy two adult sunglasses purchases and you will get $10 ECB...there are thse lens cleaning wipes for sale for 99 cents each and those count so you spend $2 to make $10!!! I haven't checked at my CVS's yet but plan to go today..Today is the last day so hopefully some of you can still get them

Next week soyjoys re buy 4 for $4 and get $4 ECB back..I ordered enough BOGO coupons offline to end up making $2 for each transaction. It's going to be nice to build some ECB's back up because I try not to buy things I don't use/know someone who uses/ or like...but I LOVE SOJOYS and so does the boyfriend. So if anyone buys these and wants to donate them, we eat them regularly for breakfast.

Also, target had some killer buy this and that and get ____ for free....We bought three thigns of kelloggs, got milk for free (there are 1.50 Q's for kelloggs), buy 3 lean cuisine, get lean pockets free, buy peanut butter and jelly and get bread for free...it's all grouped together at target in the food sections.

There are some other threads around about the Super Doubles at HT in the coming weeks so check out hotcouponworld for more info on that.

Happy couponing. I used http://www.thecouponclippers.com for the first time and loved it. I highly recommend it!

6/20/2009 3:02:39 PM

So, explain this real quick. In order to get the really great deals are you required to procure, clip, and save stacks and stacks of these smartsaver type inserts? Do high-res scans exist and will a color laser printer help you out any? Or is all of that nonsense strictly forbidden?

/noob

6/20/2009 3:24:38 PM

I've never seen coupon ad scans online. Maybe they exist, idk. But I get the feeling what you hope to accomplish is very unethical and most likely illegal.

that worked up until friday, and then cvs took it out of the system. i did it on thursday best money maker ever

6/21/2009 11:54:28 AM

Hey guys...there is this price book on the News and Observer website. Put the regular things you buy (including the price, description, brand) and save it. You can then go back and see how the prices trend and how often these items go on sale. You do need a N&O login though...which is free.

Hey You're not a noob! I actually just started using a "clipping service"...you have to go online and look up "sneak peeks" at certain weeks to see what will be going on sale in the coming weeks and then you can go on a clipping coupons website and order as many of the coupons that you might need, pay for them, and they mail them to you. It really is helpful to just look a few weeks in advance and then get the coupons that way instead of having stacks of inserts...which I have done that way as well but it is more annoying to me.

6/21/2009 11:50:29 PM

Super doubles at HT this week : Up to $1.98 face.

also, deli meats and cheeses are buy two, get three.
mars candy bars are also buy two, get three free.
As is popsecret popcorn.
fructis stuff is 2/$5 - I believe there are still current $1 coupons out.

i got a $1.25 off my entire order coupon that was suppose to expire on 6/14 well i have been using it the entire month every time i need anything. it still is valid and i have used it around 20 times since i got it early june

i go through self checkout and just rack up on stuff and the self checkout doesnt ask for it. even if it did i would just stick a piece of paper in there...done that before and it works

6/24/2009 9:07:31 AM

dammit
I forgot the lunch meat on special I mentioned

across two VIC cards, I spent 72.66 (which includes milk, produce, condoms, and soda for my husband), and saved 238.02

6/24/2009 12:57:09 PM

My mom just emailed me her haul: $48

I know my dad sweats a lot, but 21 deodorants????

6/24/2009 11:27:57 PM

21 deodorants and the total price make that pretty baller

6/25/2009 12:14:31 AM

Theres printables for Athenos Feta Cheese out there...$1 off I think.

Ambrosia - Did you notice the prices being higher than normal??

6/25/2009 2:20:50 AM

the prices are already marked up at grocery stores for the products that have the 1-1.98 coupons, wish they would have just done triples

6/25/2009 8:43:05 AM

^I made out far better than on triples. Probably partially because stuff was still in stock because of people who agree with you. But also because $1 doubled > $0.55 tripled

Quote :

"Ambrosia - Did you notice the prices being higher than normal?? "

Yes and no:
No, because it's harris teeter.
Yes, because it's HT.
They were alright-ish.

If you want, I can give you a rundown of all this. I've got to scan the receipt anyways, to save for tax purposes (I'm donating a fair bit of stuff).

[Edited on June 25, 2009 at 10:47 AM. Reason : asf]

6/25/2009 10:46:10 AM

Okay so here is a question.

I have a $1.50 coupon for Pert Plus for Men and they are on sale BOGO which would make the price $1.63 each. Can I get 2 of them and the $3 take care of all of that? Or will it only work the one time and not take any extra off....I hope that made sense.

6/25/2009 5:56:15 PM

Do they double peelies?

6/25/2009 6:45:51 PM

^^ you will get them free but no overage. and you will still have to pay tax on the coupon

6/27/2009 11:30:59 AM

OMG.....This was the best I have every done at Harris Teeter. Peelies doubled!

Free after coupon:

Frosted Mini Wheats
Kraft Barbecue Sauce
14 bags of veggies- 1 dollar off of a boxed green giant veggies (It was a peelie)

Cheap after coupon:

Salad dressing
Mug Rootbeer (coupon on bottle- Save $1/2)
Toothpaste/Tooth brush
Shampoo


Some thoughts- I ALWAYS get rain checks on the really good deals that are sold out. Buy 2 get 3 free, etc. They never expire. I usually save them for triple coupon weeks and make a killing; however, I had some cheese rain check/coupons that I ended up getting for free. I also had a Tyson BOGO raincheck and they had peelies on the bag for 1.50 off this bag of chicken so I got that for free. They always ring up the coupons first and then the rainchecks. So I haven't had a problem with using 2 coupons for bogo items.

Does anyone else take advantage of that? I currently have about 20 rain checks. I figure even if I can't find a good deal when I need eggs, yogurt, cheese, cereal, etc. I can at least use it at face value. What do you all think?


4 Transactions- Pre Vic/Coupons 278 dollars ended up at 18 dollars.

I had a lot of the same coupon and am probably going to donate some mini wheats since I have like 7 boxes.

6/27/2009 7:20:23 PM

so ambrosia gave me a lesson today and talked me through all the rules and techniques. i ordered 4 weeks of the sunday paper delivered to my door. gonna give this stuff a try.

6/30/2009 10:00:10 PM

ha ^ good luck it takes a bit to get into it but i was watching guys do it yesterday, without a mom/girlfriend so i bet you can do it!

Can I just say I LOVE HARRIS TEETER? Such great customer service.

I used <21 coupons there and had NO issues.

I used ONE coupon at Wal-Mart and they were completely incompetent.

7/2/2009 12:40:25 AM

Some great deals on Kaski this week at Target. Combine printable target coupons with printable web coupons and get cheap cheap cereal, cereal bars, and waffles.

I got several 12 packs of sunkist and squirt for 2 dollars at the harris teeter on edwards mill.

6 dollar BOGO with 1 dollar peelies

7/12/2009 1:14:26 PM

Tomorrow is the last day of this sale so HURRY!

Staples has 500 count printer paper for 1 cent after rebate, it says 2 per customer but it is really 2 per address so make sure you have more than 1 address if you plan on buying more than 2 packages. We didn't realize this so don't think we are greedy!

They also have I think it is 6 count wood pencils for 1 cent total, you don't have to do a rebate.
Teachers can get up to 25 of these packs so that would be an awesome deal!

At CVS I got 10 folders for 5 cents each but most of the other school supply stuff was gone!

7/14/2009 6:55:51 PM

^happy belated bday

7/14/2009 7:04:23 PM

I was at Staple when they opened Sunday. Also, Office Max had some penny stuff Highlighters and such.

I am so sad I missed the coupon exchange was it a one time deal or is it going to happen. I have some coupons for exchanging!

7/14/2009 11:29:21 PM

Does anyone use the express lane at harris teeter? It seems like I could seriously save some dough by being able to place my entire order online.

The only thing I'm having trouble with is adding things like buy 2 get 3 free cheeses and not having it register. Ok it looks like it takes it if you buy 5 packs of whatever item you want, mixing and matching doesn't appear to work.

[Edited on July 20, 2009 at 5:33 PM. Reason : .]

7/20/2009 5:29:06 PM

^Yeah, with the B2G3 ("buy 2 get 3 free") deals you need to purchase 5 to get the discount.

But with B1G1 or B1G2 you can buy any quantity and each item will ring up half price (w/ B1G1) or a third of the price (B1G2)

[Edited on July 20, 2009 at 10:13 PM. Reason : BTW, Super Doubles at HT starting on Wednesday]

7/20/2009 10:12:16 PM

So I had a voicemail saying they were out of the HT cheese and olive oil but they gave me a rain check for both. When I called back the girl said she subbed Kraft cheese and still gave me the rain checks. I'd never done the express thing before but I went in fully expecting to give the person like a five dollar tip even though it said on the website they didn't accept them whatever whatever.

But the person that brought the groceries wasn't the one that called me and I offered to grab most of the bags and then decided to keep my five. Now I feel bad :/

Is it common practice to tip these people? Now I'm worried maybe next time I'll get shitty produce or something!

7/21/2009 5:58:05 PM
