Does anyone mind sharing how well they've been making out with the $5 gift card, when you spend $50 promotion?

So far I've managed to accumulate 7 gift cards. It would have been 8, but I decided not to go to customer service regarding the register not promoting the gift card even though I received a CRT that thanked me for earning one.

(...I also earned 2,500 bonus points in the same transaction and the cashier told me she'd need to re-ring my transaction to get it to prompt for the gift card so I decided not to press the issue).

Anyone else care to share how many gift cards they have?

just got my 1st today. going to try to get another one. i found purina one beyond cat food boxes for $2.59 and i have many of the $2 q's so today i did the olay deal and added 4 boxes of cat food and just hit the $50. i was not expecting the $5 gift card so made my morning. i found the cat food by the minute maid drink boxes. i am going back for more cat food but i'm about out of olay coupons so will be hard to pull off another gift card. i wasn't sure how many like q's i could use at kmart so i only used 4.

I have 6 and will get #7 today and maybe 1 or 2 more later this week.

[JennaGuzman]

I have 5 ... Hoping to get 4 or 5 more this week with the p and g deals.

[mariecarol]

I don't have any yet. Not sure I can, because I did not have any CRTs to start with, so I already spent 10.53 OOP on the P & G deal. Since I can't roll, I am thinking I would have to spend another 10.00 OOP to get the 5.00 gc. Am I correct? TY

[artmayer1]

I have 5 (and I thought I was doing pretty good)...you guys are on fire with Kmart!

[ONicole]

I have three

[jgarcia]

I have 7 so far, waiting on more coupons to get here before the P&G deal is over.

To get the $5 GC, your total needs to be $50 before coupons.




As for the GC's, I only have 2....1 from yesterday and 1 from today. Hoping for more in the next few days though.

Question: Does anyone know if the gift cards have to be used seperately (like the cats) or can you use all of them in one transaction if your total is enough (like regular gift cards)?

I'd love to build these up this week to buy something BIG!! LOL!!

That's what I'm hoping for!! They do not say you can only use one per transaction so I'm thinking it's unlimited!!

I have accumulated 12 so far and have coupons to do 4 more $50 transactions.

[penandthecity]

Wow some of you ladies are doing great with the Olay deal. I only bought 6 papers so that's all the coupons I have. I didn't know if my store would have enough stock by mid-week so I didn't order any coupons.

Where is the purnia coupon?

[Mimomto1]

Same here I thought my store would be wiped out and I was sick on Sunday so I only got about 6 papers from my local gas station Mon morning. My store today had a ton of Olay! Now I am kicking myself for not ordering more q's!!

If you can, try to get your cat food subtotal to $30 so that you can get the 3,000 ($3.00) bonus points CRT too.

I have 10

Also - you can use as many of the $5 gift cards as you want in one transaction as long as you didn't receive it the same day you are trying to use it!

By accident I handed one over that I had just received and the registered beeped saying card has been recently activated!

These cards say to be used 4/9 thru 4/28. Have you used them?

[AvasMomm]

I have 16. I get 20 papers a week and bought an additional 5. I also ordered another 40 P&G inserts.

[Lmndrop1]

Are all of you using the Allegra $7/1 q's to get you to your $50?

I won't have these Allegra q's till Saturday so trying to figure out what to get today when I go...want to do one or two $50 transactions when I go pick up my ham voucher credit...have 35 of the p & g inserts to work with and some SS and RP's too....

If anyone has any great ideas I'd be grateful...feeling overwhelmed...not sure if I can do this with a smallish OOP without those Allegra q's....

Don't have pets so don't use pet food..

Thanks

My store is giving out "Return Cards" - with no dates.

[marycoupon879]

I have 10, Kmart has been amazing lately. Can't stay away. Anyone try to share what coupons they are using to double. I have been using Mars $1.00 and Revlon tools $1.00 but my Kmart has run out of those items. It'll be silly to get to $50 and not use double coupons.

[kjcarte2]

I currently have 6. I have enough P&G coupons to get a couple more but my store has recently started requiring a manager to come and approve every coupon before they will accept it. Which is fine if they weren't looking for any reason to not accept them. And it also adds about 30 mins to my check out time while i have to wait on a manger to be located. They also all believe one per purchase means one per transaction. I had to point out the fact that it says in bold, red letters underneath that " 4 per transaction." then he said I could use them "just this once". Wth. Then one of my coupons beeped that came off of the actual product i was buying, and they refused to accept it. I have not been back.

I have 16 5.00 cards and 5 10.00 crts from the p&g deal. This week I have been getting easter bunny basket stuffers to get to the 50. The giant stuffed animals are normally 24.99 but are 12.49 this week and had 1 register coupon for 15% off any easter plush which took off 1.88. Got a dress and shoes for my daughter in one trans and got a free bag of jelly beans. They were only 10.00 each so the 20.00 got me over the 50 in that trans. I paid 16.00 (AFTER USING 10.00 CRT FROM THE NORTHERN AND BRAWNY LAST WEEK) and got back 10.00 p&g and 5.00 gc. Not too bad for her easter outfit. I might do one more trans and get my son a new pair of slacks and maybe a shirt to get over 50. I need a new swiffer wetjet and they are on sale for 19.99 there is a 3.00 off one in the p&g and a free refill when you buy the starter kit from inside a p&g package (not sure if it was charmin or pampers). Not sure how much the refill is but I will probably add 2 cg eyeliners to get over 30 (they are 3.49 here and with the b1 g1 half off deal and the 1.00 coupon doubling will be super cheap). I really hope that they can all be used at once. I am hoping to take care of my husbands birthday present with them.

I BOW TO YOU.........LOL GREAT JOB! Saving money and getting things you need is most awesome.

[thriftyCAmom]

I always try to roll these onto new transactions for next week. I have 21 and will probably do another 7, I have that many more purex/quilted northern/soft scrub Crts left....gotta roll them into p&g items.....

Also, some Ive gotten do not have start dates and some start the 9th.....kinda nice both ways.
