Kmart: Have I told you I LOVE it?


O.K. is it just me or is this Kmart super doubles thing addicting? I went back again today and did two more transactions. My Kmart has no restrictions on coupon use and they are VERY good to check and make sure everything doubles as it should.

My first transaction: 2 Pictureka & 6 Playdoh kits on HUGE clearance - total of Playdoh was right around $10. I had a $2/10 Playdoh coupon, a $5/20 Kmart Toy Coupon and two $5 pictureka coupons. If you do the math I should have paid around $2 BUT the $2 Playdoh coupon did not double and I didn't catch it. I paid $4.45 out of pocket. I considered going to the service desk, however three of the Playdoh's rang up at HALF of the clearanced price, so I decided to let it go.

My second transaction: After coupons-$5.55! I was able to use several Kmart tearpad coupons (that do not double) in combination with manufacturer's coupons to make some great deals! Check your store for coupons! Several people have told me that they have found great coupons in-store. Also, my Kmart marks down their dairy and refrigerated items, many to $1, to get it off the shelf. These make great deals.

I was told by a Kmart employee that Kmart will eventually be having one Super Doubles event per month. They are "testing" by imposing limits on coupon use to find out what works best for both the customer and Kmart. If you disliked the imposed limit of 10 coupons per transaction and the $25 minimum, you can contact Kmart and let them know!

I am so jealous of all your K-Mart deals mine didnt have doubles and I dont know if they do. I hope they join in on the once a month double, that would be awesome.

mine did not have the $25 minimum!!
It had no minimum at all!!
So I bought the 4 Nabisco cereals(on sale anyway for $4 off 4) and I had the $1 off 3 doubled so they were $1 each.
Also got a free starbucks(reg.$2) frappacino bottle with a $1 coupon doubled.

Great trip! I appreciate the heads-up on the Sparkle/Angel Soft deal the other day. I went yesterday and got 4 of each! Thanks!

My k-mart ad had the $25 minimum, but did not enforce it, also there was supposed to be a 10 coupon limit, but they said they wouldn't enforce that either. I got a lot of stuff for free or close to free with my coupons. I even scored some severely clearanced baby clothes as well! I never shop at K-mart though except when they do double coupons...my first love is walmart

my kmart is a pain, they are super strick about the 10 coupon limit and they have bad attitude about the whole double coupon thing it is frustrating!
I'm not sure I will be going back.
I called customer service today and let them know.

ps I did get some GREAT deals, (but it is not worth leaving there feeling like crap) check my blog for the picture of the great things I got! :)
