Free item count towards $15?

Does the BBQ sauce that's free this week count towards the $15 needed to get the $5 cat? Anyone try this yet or know from a past scenario?

Yes! And I did do it. 2 garbage bags x $6.99 each + 1 FREE BBQ sauce. Got the $5! It was great because with the garbage bags being on sale it wouldn't have been short to get to $15.

I only had an IP for $1.85 (sorry, don't remember exactly where it was) and a $2/1 Kmart catalina one (red and white tape) that I don't know what triggered it weeks ago.

How many garbage bags are in the box for 6.99? I just started buying garbage bags, I always used the compactor bags, so I don't know what a good price is for the regular garbage bags. TY

It varies depending on which type/size you're getting. I think the ones I got had 45, some had 40, larger size less, too many types and sizes.....

Yes, many different ones, but the ones I got where the quick tie (80 count I think) and the Force Flex (38 count).....same pricing on both, just depends on what you get.

It's in the monthly ad, runs through the 28th I believe.

TY. I know. I went to Target today, they had the Flex bags, 42 ct for 8.29. I was comparing. I never realized it was so hard to compare.

No they will not allow two kmart offers in one transaction. Some will push it threw and some will not. I usually do not even try anymore.

I used 2 x 1.85 Glad
4 x 1.00 MM ( doubled)
Total = 15.05
Earned a GC for the MM Snack but no coupon for the Glad.
I handed the cashier a free BBQ q and she scanned it, but it did not come off. I knew something was wrong because I figured the total to be 13.26. I wanted to question the cashier about the total but the lady in back of me was being so rude. She got in line behind me after I was already being rung up. There was no one in back of her, and she was acting so put out that I was taking long. WHY do people think everything has to be rush rush in a hurry? What if I had 20 items instead of 6 coupons? That would take just as long. But I have a feeling that would be ok. It's just the coupons that annoy them.

Hmm that is odd. I did that exact same order and got the $5 Glad cat. Did you look over your receipt?

I would have taken the time I needed to at the register to make sure my order was right. (But that is just me) Couldn't the person behind you go check out at the service desk? That's what they do at my Kmart when they get busy. I even suggest that to them.

She kept ducking back and forth checking the other line that was open, but decided to stay in mine. UGH. I'm trying to get better at checking out. My friend who coupons also is really good about not letting the person in back of her affect her transaction. Is the Glad coupon a separate coupon that prints? I asked at CS and they said it may still be hanging out of the register. She checked and no. So, of course she said I didn't qualify because I used coupons. I still wonder why the free item did not come off? Oh well. TY
