TRIPLE COUPON MATCHUPS

The fine print limits you to one coupon per item (with no overage if coupon exceeds item price) and 3 identical items with coupon per transaction.

MY NOTES:
Prices can vary between store locations, along with selection (which is a little more sparse at the Sterling Heights store). Be warned that the Sterling Heights store is also often wary of printables; though they've said they'd accept them, they sometimes refuse. Their computer system won't automatically triple and they may need to input coupons manually up to the item price. For ease in triples shopping, the Shelby store was hassle-free.


I'll continue to update as I find deals - please contribute your ideas and finds as well!

  1. FYI, both the smuckers and Tony's pizza say not subject to doubling. The cashier also informed me of this yesterday.

  2. Thanks! That may happen, depending on cashier. You may want to try again another time/location/cashier.

    Last night, I had the opposite experience - I got a cashier that actually paid me $1.09 to shop! She handed me the cash even though the ad states that coupons should not exceed item price. The computer apparently didn't follow directions, either.

    The cashier can make all the difference...

  3. I cannot believe the cashier paid someone, that's crazy!!

    I went to the Shelby store today and it worked out pretty good. They were out of a lot of items like the Huggies wipes, Mentos gum, Hormel pepperoni, Fritos 100 calorie packs, Suave deodorant and some other stuff I can't remember off hand. I think I had 2 coupons that didn't double correctly, but I had others that exceeded the price paid so it wasn't a big deal to me. But all in all it was good. My total was about $91 and was $18 after coupons. I guess I can't complain! Thanks so much for compiling these lists! It's nice to have someone local, then you know things are pretty accurate.

  4. We noticed many things out of stock at the Shelby store today - the DiGiorno Flatbread Melts were gone, for example. Remember to ask for raincheck if the item is on SALE this week - then you can get it for the same price next week when no one else is clearing the shelves...

    Word is spreading and couponers are out in full force - how many do you notice while you're shopping?!

  5. I noticed a couple of people this morning with coupons.
    Maybe one was you :) I guess the good thing is that this goes through 7/19 and many of the items aren't on sale.
    I live pretty close and am a SAHM, so I have the time to check back frequently.

  6. I went this morning and the Huggies wipes and DiGiorno Flatbreads were restocked. Plenty there! I tried using one Smuckers coupon that said do not double and they wouldn't double it. I didn't think they would. I never seem to have that luck!
