If you aren't familiar with this coupon, I strongly advise you read over this thread: $5/$25 Dollar General Store Coupon Information

You can get this coupon in-store on the bottom of receipts or on their website later in the week.

Please discuss your trips/plans/etc here.

It's not for tomorrow. It's for July 14 which is one week from tomorrow. I'm not quite sure why they sent it so early because surely it will confuse lots of people.

[CouponNews]

Oh yea. Sorry. That is strange.

[sweety33]

tysm scottd09 will start my planning for next week..

[scottd09]

I haven't had a good deal on pasta in a while. I've been buying Walmart or Aldi brand for a few months.

They will have select Barilla 16oz pastas (Thin spaghetti, angel hair, penne, and rotini) on sale for $1 which you could combine with the $5/$25. There might be MQs to use with this. I'm not sure.

Nonetheless, if you have a coupon for something else that would make it free/provide overage, it could be used too to reduce the total cost.

Edit: I have 2 transactions planned.

26x Barilla Pasta $1
1x $5/$25
13x Barilla Coupon $0.55 off 2 (SS 06/24)
Total: $13.85 = $0.53 per box.

I can't get pasta any cheaper here.

Not near me. I actually found out there's a $1/2 Barilla coupon that I'm going to use instead. I can get 52 boxes for $16 then. We make our own pasta sauce from our garden in the summer.

Here's what I'm going to do now twice:

24x Barilla Pasta $1
1x Bayer Low Dose Aspirin $2.50
1x $5/$25
1x $3/1 Bayer
12x $1/2 Barilla
Total: $6.50

I'm also going to try to do this once but I wish I had another Bayer coupon as I could make it a better deal:

6x Clean and Clear Foaming Facial Wash $4.50
1x $5/$25
6x $1/1 IP (get it from their website)
Total: $16 (or $2.67 each)

If I had the Bayer Q, I could get 5 facial washes and 1 Bayer for $12.

[scottd09]

I have a terrible habit of tweaking my plans endlessly and as a result, I post way too many transactions.

I have ordered my coupons so now I can't tweak anymore.

I will do this 3 times:
20x Barilla Pasta $1
2x Bayer Low Dose Aspirin $2.50
1x $5/$25 Coupon
10x Barilla $1/2 Blue Box Pasta Coupon
2x Bayer $3/1 Coupon
Total: $4 (20 cents per box not counting the aspirin)

I will also do this transaction once:
5x Clean and Clear Foaming Facial Wash $4.50
1x Bayer Low Dose Aspirin $2.50
1x $5/$25
5x $1/1 IP (get it from their website)
1x $3/1 Bayer Coupon
Total: $12

Haven't figured my plan out yet. I think Hefty ziplock bags, and some v8 juice, and something else, don't know what yet....

[gpmomof6]

I must be crazy because I'm thinking once again of trying this. I'm thinking 2 transactions.

Transaction 1
5 visine
3 Scott's toilet paper

- 5/25
- $2 visine x 5

Total oop $10 + tax

Transaction 2
24 hefty ziplock
1 rephresh tampon

- 5/25
- $1/2 hefty x 12
- $1 rephresh tampon

Total oop $7 + tax

[Annie123109]

Does the hefty q have limit on number of qs in one transaction?

[pearlscraftymama]

No it doesn't. I'll be getting 12 with 6 q's.

[Annie123109]

Nice!!!! Thanks for sharing!

[pearlscraftymama]

Price check on the Scott's please... so I can plan my tranny....

I hear in this forum that they're $5 but I've never purchased them before so I can't confirm.

The 12 pack Scott Extra Soft is $5 regular price. Where are you getting your coupons?

Cottonelle 12 pack is $5.75 right now as well.

[jessbme]

Just a heads up, visine is priced $2 on the shelf but scanning $2.25 at the register, the coupon says 1 per person but no more then 4 like coupons in one transaction...... It was a HUGE PITA tonight when I saw it for $2 and ran to the car because I knew I had the $2 tearpad coupons, also they only have the new bar code on the back so cashier had to f8 it (no clue what that meant, anyway could only get 2 for free) just wanted to let everyone know so you could be prepared.

Oh shoot, that's right, forgot about the limit of 4. I think I'm going to call customer service about these drops before I even go in to try it. I bought 4 of these about 2 months ago and the manager gave me a hard time for the same thing. Shelf said $2 but they rang up 2.25. I said I think they should honor the tag and after arguing w her about it, she finally did it. Then when I handed over the q's, she rolled her eyes and asked what I needed w so many eye drops anyway. I was going to call corporate but never got around to it. Now I see that the tags still say $2. So I thought maybe they changed the price back to $2. But since you say they are still ringing up 2.25, I think I'm going to call and complain about the whole pricing thing. In 2 months, they haven't had a chance to change the tags to reflect the new price of 2.25?? And that manager was just do rude to me last time. You know its bad when I have to call cs before I've even gone in to do a transaction. Lol.

[scottd09]

If the Visine Q doesn't scan, it will be difficult to use with the $5/$25 as they can only take off whatever the price is after the store discount. It's a register limitation.

[gpmomof6]

I give up! Lol. These 5/25 are just too difficult to use imo, w other q's anyway.

[ViLuvs2shop]

It all depends on the store and the workers. They can make is hard or easy. I'm lucky mine are pretty good each time I go.

[scottd09]

I went to check out the stock in my store. They have PLENTY of pasta and there is more than enough aspirin. My store doesn't label sales and these are only advertised online so I don't have to worry about it suddenly disappearing.

I will be able to do 2 pasta transactions there and another at a different store. I was hoping I wouldn't need to go to 3 stores.

[mommabailey]

11 Visine @ $2.25 each = $24.75
Paper Towels $2.75 ( to reach $25)

Subtotal = $27.50
- $5/$25 q
= $22.50
- $22.00 (11 $2 Visine qs)
= $.50 + tax does that work then??

The visine Q is limit 1 per person and it won't scan either.
