Good Super Target Deals
Okay, so these deals are from a week ago. Usually I try to post my deals in a timely manner so that you can also go out and get them. But it has been a busy week.
Okay, so here are some of my goodies. *Note that "Up & Up" is Target's new store/generic brand. And in the past couple of months Target has sent to me two booklets full of coupons for their store brand items.their You can also print some store coupons off their website. Or...you can go to the registry kiosks at the front of the store, access their website from there, and use their paper and ink to print the coupons. They put new coupons up each week, so if you want to see past coupons that have not expired yet, go to A Full Cup. Another great thing about Target is that you occasionally get coupons that print out at the register to use on a future shopping trip. That is where my $1 off Shout coupon came from (you will see in the list below). I also have twice now gotten a coupon for $2 off a grande Pumpkin Spice Latte to be used at Starbucks (the ones inside the Super T's).
*Up & Up Dishwasher Gel $2.64-.50 store q= 2.14
*Palmolive Pure & Caring dish soap 2.49-1.50 store q= .99-.75 manufacturer q= .24 (remember you can use one store q and one manuf. q per item!)
*Ocean Spray juice (64 oz) reg. 2.59, on sale for 1.99-1.00 store q= .98
*ground beef 85/15 sale 1.99/lb...or you could get a 2-lb package for 3.79
*Crest Kids' toothpaste 1.97-1.00 manuf. q= .97
*Up & Up saline solution (2-pk) 4.39-.50 store q= 3.89
*Tampax tampons (20 ct) 3.14-1.50 in store + manuf. q's (cannot remember values of each one)= 1.64
*Shout Stain Spray sale 2.24-1.00 store q= 1.24
*red grapes .99/lb
I am really missing my Super T today. Right now I should be there with my girls polishing off an all-beef hot dog and diet Coke in their "cafe" before tackling our shopping list. If you are curious as to why I am not there today, click HERE.
Go out this weekend and get some good deals no matter where you shop!
Happy shopping! And as always, enjoy your savings!

Harris Teeter Triples
Harris Teeter is tripling coupons in our area beginning today and ending next Tuesday 11/10.
Many people have asked me recently--Since HT is such an expensive store, can you really do better tripling coupons there than you can using a single coupon at Wal-Mart? My answer is "Usually, yes." When there is a good sale and you have good coupons, you can really do quite well.
Yes, HT prices are exorbitant (in my opinion). But can you get dish soap for .24 a bottle at Wal-mart or Super T (and y'all know I LOVE me some Super T!)? If your store offers that price, please tell me where it is so I can start shopping there!
So if you want my not-so-humble opinion...yes, cutting out the coupons and matching them up with the sales are very much worth your time and energy. Look at my list, if you still have not been convinced by all my other shopping trips, and decide for yourself!
(1) Betty Crocker cookie mix 2.19-.40q= .99
(2) Betty Crocker cookie mix 2.19-.40q= .99
(3) Betty Crocker frosting 1.99-.50q=.49
(4) Mueller Elbow Macaroni and Mueller Thin Spaghetti reg. $1.50 each, on sale for $1 each, so 2.00-.55/2q= .35 for 2 boxes of pasta
(5) Nestle Tollhouse mini chocolate chips reg. $2.79, on sale for $2.50-.50q= 1.00
(6) Dawn dish detergent (10.3 oz) reg. $1.39, on sale for .99-.25q= .24
(7) Downy Softener reg. $5.99, on sale for $3.99-.50q= 2.49
(8) Progresso Chicken Broth (32 oz carton) reg. $2.69, on sale buy one get one free, so 2.69-..50q= 1.19 for 2 cartons
(9) Sweet Sue Chicken (in a foil bag, where you get the canned tuna, etc.) reg. $3.59, on sale for $2.99-.75q= .74
(10) Swanson Chicken Broth (14 oz cans) reg. $1.15, on sale buy one get one free, so 4 cans for $2.30-.40q/3= 1.10 for 4 cans
(11) HT brand sugar (5 lb) reg. $2.49, on e-VIC special for .99
(12) Colgate 360 toothbrush reg. $3.99, on sale for $2.50-.75q= .25
(13) Suave deodorant 1.99-.50q= .49
(14) Bridgford Monkey bread reg. $3.79, on sale $3.49-.50q= 1.99
(15) Coffee Mate creamer 2.29-.50q= .79
Total before VIC card and coupons=$47.66
Total after VIC card=$35.09
Total after VIC card and coupons=$11.44
Saved: $36.26, or 76%
I would love to know how you do during this triples week if you get a chance to take advantage of it!

KRISPY KREME
I was reading here that Krispy Kreme will give you three Halloween cards for purchasing a dozen of any of their donuts. Now, I am not one for giving Halloween cards, but the nifty thing about these is on the back there is a free donut offer. These cards will be given out through 10/31. I do not know if all stores are participating, but I know the downtown Raleigh location gave out similar Valentine cards this year. So if you are already planning on being there tomorrow, go ahead and ask if they have these cards!
That's all I found. Enjoy!
