Unfortunately, the BiLo in my town does not have triples this week. BUT...the BiLos in the town 90 miles away have triples this week.

Not once, but twice Angie & I drove there to do some serious coupon shopping. We went this past Tuesday night and last night (Thursday). I haven't looked at my receipts from Tuesday night, but can tell you that on Thursday night before BiLo customer card and coupons, my total was $411. After card, coupon, and register incompetence, my total was $0

Editted to add: The total of all the groceries I bought (Tues + Thurs) prior to card, coupons and register incompetence = $672

Woohoo!

To be honest, I spent $0 both nights!

And this is a basic run down of what I purchased:
(4) trial size All detergent
(17) trial size All fabric softener
(6) 2packs of Dove
(4) tubes of Colgate
(2) stand up tubes of BluesClues Colgate that sings the ABC song when you open the cap
(3) Colgate toothbrushes
(10) boxes of Poptarts
(25) jars of Welch's grape jelly
(10) jars of Welch's grape jam
(40) Eclipse mints
(9) boxes of Quaker Fruit &Oatmeal bars
(15) boxes of Kotex pantyliners
(32) pouches of Bisquik Complete biscuit mixes
(4) boxes of Tetley Tea
(11) 2lb bags of Uncle Ben's Brown Rice
(16) cans of Spaghettios
(3) boxes of Tuna Helper
(8) boxes of Hamburger Helper
(9) boxes of Chicken Helper
(20) boxes of Pasta Roni
(3) boxes of ElPaso taco shells
(12) 15 oz cans of Hunt's tomato sauce
(40) 8 oz cans of Hunt's tomato sauce
(20) Renuzit Airfreshener sprays
(8) bottles of Kikimo sauces
(16) jars of Vlassic relish
(3) loaves of Arnold bread (same brand as Brownberry for you west coast ppl)
(1) 6 pack of Yo-Baby yogurt
(3) bag of Borden shredded cheese
(8) blocks of Borden cheese
(3) packages of Borden American slices
(2) bottles of Juicy Juice

OMG! I am still amazed at all the bags I brought into the house today! :woohoo1:

Check out the photos - loaded most of the stuff on my kitchen table just to see the motherload of purchases! (Photo is missing some items from list above)

Look at my loot!

M posing with the loot!


Funny thing: My son kept saying "This is too much Mama! Too much stuff!" but when DH came home, my son was jumping up and down saying, "Look at the table! Mama said she got that for ZERO DOLLARS!!!"

Another funny: Angie's son took one look at her loot and said, "It's a grocery store!!"

Question...what are you going to do with all that grape jam/jelly??? J/K! Wow! That is unbelievable. Congrats! Any tips? We don't ever get triple coupons here. How high will they triple them to? What was the cashier reactions? First, when you handed her your coupons, then when she finished ringing them up. That must have been very fun

I can't wait for triples today, I am just waiting for MA to call and get started last time we did well, She did great actually walking out with money to leave, I am still a rookie in training from her, I am a quick study too boot!

Of course my hubby stopped at store on the way home from work and paid full price for things I was going to buy today.

Most of the jelly/jam will go to the local food bank.
Actually, most of the stuff I bought will go to the food bank.

Tripled up to 0.99

Cashiers thought it was cool....best stores (for their attitude) I have been in ever!

I was still trying to figure out how much to guess you spent when you posted this. so cool. Would love to have seen the cashier's reaction. And what a great feeling to be able to help the food bank. awesome.
