I liked how the Tom’s Shoes bracelet was hand packaged. Not enough freebies are scotch taped to notebook paper these days.
For anyone who got the Kashi sample, Target has it on sale this week for $2.99. If you use your $3 coupon, one full-size box is free. And if you use the other coupons, it’s still a good deal.

Thank you!
Sharon—will Target allow this? I have seen Walmart purposely either jack a price quite a bit (to cover the coupon) or lower price to just under what the coupon says when they see a flood of great coupons come through. They do not allow coupons that are more than what the item cost.

#3. You’re right. I’ve seen this too. They are supposed to raise the price of the item to match the coupon b/c they aren’t allowed to alter the value of the coupon (and they WON’T give you the fews cents back!).
Look on some of the coupon sites to see the corporate coupon policies of your fav stores. I carry a printed copy of my fav stores’ policies w/me at all X’s to show the unknowing (or just plain don’t care) managers incase they give me a hassle about a particular item/coupon.
…….Just saying….
#3 Goob has the corporate coupon policies listed right HERE!!!!! Go to the categories list and “click” on COUPONS and there you will find his listings of the stores’ policies.
See how I am Goob, I didn’t give you enough credit. How dare me?? : )
How did you get a free subscription to The Week?
Finally got my Tylenol sleep kit today, woohoo!
Kashi GoLean crisp cereal was so good I went out and bought a big box and ate it all by myself! Also got a dove conditioner sample.
I love my Tom’s shoe bracelet and looseleaf paper note! ty for telling me there were coupons in the go lean cereal I think I would have missed them until they expired! also received womans Day, Always pack and secret deodorant,Mrs wages salsa mix coupon (wish I knew where they sell them)and WSJ for the week!!
joni- Walmart. Go to the Mrs. Wages site-tells you where it’s sold in your state.
I got a free box of Kashi tonight with no problem. Most stores in my area, Target included, won’t credit you over the value of the product, but if the coupon is equal or greater value, you’ll get it for free. For example, they only credited $2.99, the price of the product, not $3, the value of the coupon.
Seems fair to me because otherwise, they would be paying you to get their products — good in theory but capitalism wouldn’t last that long in practice.
