Talking Shopping at Kmart - WOW!!!!

Rumor has it Kmart is going to double again some where around the 23rd or 26th.
They might be doing this every couple of weeks.

You won't believe this, last time they doubled I purchased $247 in products.
I used coupons I cut out of my papers, I bought 6 papers last week.
I paid, $2.47 I could not believe this. I can't wait til next time!!!

That is amazing! I was traveling and unable to do the Kmart thing last week, but I'll be keeping my eyes open for another set of double days.

Also, it seems that more grocery stores in my area (I'm in Maryland) are bringing back the double coupons.

Looks like there's one in the town we'll be living in. I'll have to definitely keep an eye on this thread. It's really cool to be back in the land of retail savings opportunities.

I read that they will be doubling again at the non-Super Kmarts on November 30-December 5 (or 6th, I can't remember).

I went last week when they were doubling and the guy behind me was rolling his eyes at my coupons. He asked me how much I'd saved and when I told him $65 he seemed pretty startled!

If a coupon is worth $1.50 off it is doubled to $3.00 off.
