hey there, cute site. Good info. Found you on Money Saving Mom. I’m couponing to save my family as much money as I can (aren’t we all). Do you have the coupon anxiety dreams like I’ve been having lately? Here’s the post on it: http://writer4rent.blogspot.com/2009/04/coupon-anxiety.html
Can you relate?

Okay, I feel a little retarted right now since my calculation did not come out to $.57 a box. I got $1.00 a box. This is what I did $1.87*2=$3.74-$.75-$1.00=$1.99. Then I took $1.99 and divided by 2 to get $1.00 per box. What did I do wrong? Can you please help? Thanks!!!

Hi Kim,
You would use .75 on each box- so 3 coupons total.
$1.87 x 2= 3.74 – (2) .75/1 MQ= 2.24- 1/2 target q= 1.24 for 2 boxes or whoops the math was wrong. they are .62 each not .57. ๐

Thanks Charlene! I did not realize you could use the .75 coupon two times on the same purchase. I get it now! ๐

I have look through the RP insert for coupons for eggo .75 cents off, I could not fine them in the 4/5 insert.

Anon,
Sorry you got cheated out of the coupon- I did too! I hate that. The inserts vary from region to region, so the coupon values change and the ones they include change. I guess we should be happy we even have Red Plum since they pulled the inserts in some markets!
