Good Job!
I'm in need of a triples fix, but can't get there until Saturday...I hope they don't run out of what I need. I wonder how often they restock...

They were restocking when I was in the store at 7:30 AM yesterday. Hopefully yours will also so you can get all those goodies!

Lucky you - good timing!

I had a great first trip. Paid $38.53 for 125.XX before Qs.

I got Right Guard deodorant free after .75 Q (From K mart coupon book)
Sure deodorant for .22 after a .75/1 Q
.80 for Olivio spreadable butter after .40/1 Q
.80 for BC cookie mix after .40/1 Q
found Gillette shampoo for $1.95 each in clearance section and used B1G1 Q so about a $1 each (I did better last time with a $2/1 Q)
Edward's singles pies (Key Lime were the only ones at my SFW)were about .40 each
after .75/1 Q
Nestle Toll House morsels were about .43 (ish) after .75/1 Q

Texas toast croutons were free

I can't remember the rest but I am going to Bloom tonight for their triples -- I usually find that their frozen food prices work well with the Qs I have. I got a whole bunch of .55/1 Qs for Kahiki products and the kids like the egg rolls.

Oh, I only had one French's Worcestershire and so I got another product but no catalina for me.

I love when they do the triples but I ran into a bit of a problem today. Ok the ad here in MD says unlimited triple coupons and I had 10 McCormick coupons and my mom had the same. The guy checking us told us though their coupon policy is only 4 of the same items can be purchased at the same time, thus not allowing us to use the 10 coupons. After we checked out, I went up to customer service desk to find out when this changed because I never had a problem in the past. They called the manager who told them to allow us to use the rest of the coupons because the ad says unlimited, so a grand total of 43 cents for 10 McCormick spices. Has any one else ran into this problem?

:yup: The registered locked as usual due to having more than (4) Q's for Maruchan Yakisoba Noodles which are 10/$10 every day. The person checking me out was the head cashier so she had the key to let all (43) of my q's go through. SFW's registered cannot handle a large volume of Q's (as per the head cashier) and always tend to lock up during doubles and triples. I guess the registers are not acustomed to the over load of Q usage. HTH's

[momto3boyz]

I had the same problem. I had to educate the cashier about the coupons and how the registers will accept only o many. She then sounded very knowledgeable to her manager when he came by and they proceeded to just triple all my qs and give me overage. I have learned not to go to my SFW late in the evening because the cashiers that are on shift at night tend to give me trouble.

I didn't actually look this time, but in the past the ad has stated that you can only use 4 of the same coupon. Does it not say that anymore? I'll have to go back and see if I still have the flyer, but I think I chucked it. It would be so cool if it didn't say that - I'd be able to stop making repeat trips.

[marie123]

It has always been limit of 4 alike coupons. It is in small print on the circular when they do double/triple c/o's. My store has flyers on their front door and yesterday they had it at every registers.

I shopped at the Kensington, MD store. Got 10 pkts of the Grill Mate on sale at .75, I got .50 Q. The manager said that I have to pay .25 each ! He said that bec. it is triple day, he can't double it (doesn't make sense) Told him to take them off.

[hcarroll86]

I did my first Shoppers triples today. I think I did fairly well. Got some candy that we didn't need. Minus that, we got 29 items for $13.79 after tax. I got a lot of the stuff already put on the forum. Others I got were:
Edge Shaving Cream 2.49 - .75x3 = .24
1lb. Domino Sugar x 2 = 1.00each - .45x3 = .65 for both
Quaker Tortillaz = 1.89 - .50x3 = .39
Renuzit Adjustables x 3 = 3.00 (don't remember the coupon but roughly came out about .30 each)
B1G1 Mars candy bars = 2 for .79

Also got sugar substitute at regular price.
