| Triples are the new doubles
My first triple-coupon event and it was good! Here are the highlights:
Manager Special - Reduced sugar Pillsbury cake mix (fudge and yellow) was half price - 1.39. I remembered having $1/2 so I grabbed a few
Carolina rice - Jasmine 3.49 - .50 tripled so 1.99 for a nice sized Jasime rice (got 2)
Carolina rice boxed long grain - 1.29 - .20 sale discount - .50 tripled - so made .30 on each (got 2 as I don't like to use more than 4 of the same coupon without knowing if it will work and this was the same coupon as above - I will hit them again and use up the rest of these coupons)
French's Fried Onions - ok, not sure what I was thinking but I've had these .50 coupons and with a triple event, that makes the 3.99 seem more reasonable. Well, got a $1 Catalina so these turned out to cost $1.49. It'll keep until Thanksgivings and I'll have it for the green bean cassarole. I guess I will need to figure out how to make that dish!)
French's Honey Mustard 2.99 - 1.49 sale discount - .75 triples so made .75 on each. The last coupon beeped (I think due to the overage) and the cashier just put it through so it was a money maker.
Sobe Water - didn't know if they accepted IP so I just got one Sobe BOGO. They accepted it.
Gatorade 32 oz - less than half price .75 but no coupons
Domino Brown sugar 2.19 - .30 tripled
Domino white sugar 5 pound 3.39 - .30 tripled - I'll need it.
Ziploc Steam bags 2.99 - .50 tripled (I just wanted to try them)
Tabasco 1.79 - .75 tripled but automatically adjusted to be free - no overage
I also picked up a few things without coupons (mango, avocado, etc)
Paid 24.44
Saved 66.89
I will be going back after really looking through my coupons. Anything less than one dollar either on sale or that I need/use!
I couldn't find my bug spray (Hot Shot?) coupon that would have made the on sale bug spray free (on sale for 1.49, $1.50 coupon). Be sure to dig it out when you go!
