I thought the Hefty $1.77 deal was an eVic with a lmt of 2?

Oh, and did your Smithfield q's double?

what does zvr stand for?

Smithfield q's definitely doubled and the evic limit is 2 but they were still a good deal @ .97 ea after the 1/2 q so I bought 4.

[lpatwater]

1 Charmin 4-roll

2 Welch grape juice

2 Grande tortilla chips

4 Muir tomato paste

2 Smithfield bacon

$8.35 OOP (including tax)



My store was less crowded than normal at 7:10 on the first morning of super doubles. LF super doubles last week must have had some impact on it. The cashier said she was surprised they didn't do triples instead this time.

Yea, that's still a good deal. I was confused because I had the price wrong in my head and couldn't click through to the 'items of the week' from my email. I keep getting some 'apache' error message.

Ended up having to do some juggling since the Van's waffles were priced higher in-store than on my EL and I couldn't find the Eat/Think/Smile granola bars. Overall, I'm pretty happy. I did have to go to CS though - did anyone else find that the "buy X get $X instant savings" printed out weirdly on their receipts?

For example, GM deals in the past - you could clearly see where the instant savings were taken off. I did the Pillsbury cookie dough, Fiber One brownies, GM cereals, and Hamburger Helper buy X get $X savings (should've been $8 total). Instead of printing the full amount of instant savings, it split that amount up and printed it under each item, like this:

Pills RTB Sugar 2.99
VIC savings .49
VIC savings .50
Price you pay 2.00

It took the CSM and I a few minutes to figure out that all of my instant savings had been taken off properly. I swear HT makes me feel like I need to be a mathematician to read my receipt properly.

Anyway, here's my trip:

4x Hefty OneZips
4x Tuna Helper
2x Reeses Puffs cereal
1x Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal
1x Golden Grahams cereal
2x Nature Valley granola bars
2x Lucky Charms Treats bars

I had the same thing happen. The cashier was watching for it because it had not come off on an order for another customer. It did pop up on the screen at the end of the order with the 2.00 off but when the receipt printed it showed like yours above.

[Nirakina]

Here is what I got today.

2 Hefty One Zip
1 Bounty Single roll
3 Spot Shot (Used a BOGO RC, so .25 each!)
2 Pure Protein Bars
6 Balance Bars ($1/3 IP)
1 ETS Bar
3 Nutragena Make Up Remover Cloths
3 Yo Crunch
1 SB Milk

Spent: $4.79
Saved: $47.06

Also I grabbed the wrong Kraft Parm cheese (3 of them) so I had her void them off since they were not on sale, but she accidentally put them in my bags and I didn't notice until I got home. What to do? They were like $4 something each i think!

Take them back and odds are they'll be so appreciative that they'll tell you to keep them. But either way, take them back. You'll probably be going by tomorrow anyway for a second trip. be sure to take the recipt with you

Tough situation.

If you take them back HT will toss them and that would be a terrible waste. If you keep them, you'll feel guilty. Offer to pay for them but thats a lot for Parm cheese and you didnt make the mistake. Food pantry donation?!

From what I understand they will only toss refridgerated/frozen items. If that's the Kraft Parmesan that comes in the green container - it is not refrigerated so they will return it to their stock.
