Tips for Kmart Doubles!

04/01/2010

kmart logoFor those that are new to Kmart doubles I have a few tips that have worked for me in the past.  For those that are old pros at doubles please feel free to share your experiences as well!

1. Every person will have a different experience.  I find it best to just assume you need to follow the rules outlined for the event by Kmart.  You might be pleasantly surprised that your store does not enforce the rules but better to be prepared than disappointed.

2. The limit is 5 coupons per day per person.  What that should mean is that if you go with your husband, you can each do a transaction with up to 5 coupons total that will be doubled.  Kmart has indicated a Shop Your Way Rewards card is required for each person that wants to double.  You can enroll HERE and get a temporary card or take your chances that your store has these available at the registers.

3. Coupons with a value of $2 or less will be doubled.  So that means the face value of the coupon will be doubled up to a grand total of $4 so- a $2 coupon becomes $4 or up to the price of the item.  For example, if an item is priced at $3.50 and you have a $2 off coupon, you will receive a grand total of $3.50 off to make the item free.  You will not receive any overage.

4. Kmart does accept internet coupons.

5. You will want to be sure your store is included in the promotion! The list of stores is available HERE- if your store is not listed it never hurts to call and ask!  You might get lucky!

6.  Considering there are only 5 coupons total per day, I would recommend prioritizing the items you want the most if you plan to make multiple trips.  Kmart stores do tend to run out of inventory very quickly during these events.

7. Carefully check your receipt before you leave!  Coupons for multiple items (for example $1/2 coupons) are notorious for not doubling properly.  If that is the case, you can head right up to customer service and get a refund.  It is much easier to get a refund immediately than to try and come back to get one.

8. Buy One Get One coupons have doubled in the past!  There is a very good chance they will double- but I have personally had experiences when they did not double.  So if you decide to try it- be sure the coupon value is $2 or less!

9. You can use as many coupons as you like in your transaction but only 5 total will be doubled.

Good luck and be sure to come back and let us know how it goes for you!

Kmart Doubles 4/4-4/10

04/01/2010

kmart bluelight

Well here we go again!  It is doubles time!  Be sure to read the rules of the game carefully so you are all set to go and if you spot any great deals yourself let us know!!  This list is an ongoing effort so keep checking back as I will be updating constantly!  We still have the weekly ad that is released on Sunday to look forward to even more deals.

*The list of stores participating in doubles is available HERE.

*This time around there is a limit of 5 coupons per day that can be doubled.  They have indicated you need to have a Shop Your Way rewards card in order to participate and that is apparently how the 5 coupon limit is to be tracked.  You can register for this card right HERE or I am sure they will be available in stores.

* Coupons will be doubled up to $2 in value or up to the price of the item.  So if you have a $2 coupon for an item that is $3.79, it will double up to $3.79 to make it free.  If you have a $1.50 coupon for an item that is $3.79 it will double to $3 and you will pay .79.

Right Guard: Free at Kmart

04/01/2010

right guard coupon

I am working through the list of doubles match ups for Kmart starting on Sunday.  I know you guys are anxious so I hope to have them finished soon but it is a VERY long process.

In the meantime- here is a quick heads up to get the $1.50/1 Right Guard coupon HERE printed while you can!  These are priced at $2.50 so they will be free after doubles.

Even better there is a catalina offer running that includes Right Guard:

Spend $20 and get $5 back or Spend $30 and get $10 back.

The catalina also includes Dial Body Wash- so you might want to grab the$1.50/2 coupon as well while you can!

PS: Grab that $2 off Nivea too! Those will be .79 each after coupon!

Kmart Doubles Update

03/13/2010

kmart logoAlrightly ya’ll- those of you that are seasoned doubles shoppers know that Kmart usually has some extra hoops to jump through.  Those of you that are new to this- it is fun and usually worthwhile but they really make you work for your deals!

Here is the monkey wrench that Kmart is tossing out this time around:

You have to sign up for a Shop Your Way Rewards card from Kmart.  It is not a credit card and it is free.

The card will need to be used if you want to double coupons at Kmart the week of April 4th. It will also track how many you use, so the 5 coupon limit per day will be enforced.

I would recommend signing up for this now if you think you want to do the doubles event.  It says the card will arrive in the mail in 3-4 weeks and you can print a temporary card to use in the meantime.

Also, I try to stay upbeat and positive on MFA but I do want to warn you when I signed up for the last Kmart Rewards deal (the ChaChing card) it was a disaster.  The stores had no idea what it was and could not scan it and I wound up throwing it away.  So my hope is that Kmart has any glitches with this new program all ironed out by the time we hit the stores!

Personally I have shopped doubles events numerous times and I always try to look at it as an adventure and have a sense of humor with the process.  I am very pleased that they do not seem to be enforcing a minimum purchase amount this time around.

Thanks For the Mommas!

Well I nearly fell over when I saw this little beauty!  Some of you will recall that Kmart- shall we say- likes to keep us guessing on the double coupon events?

Well for the event coming up on 4/4 they have issued a complete list of participating stores HERE!

So a super thank you to those that sent me confirmation emails from Kmart for your areas but it looks like this time around they are going to make it a little easier on us!

You can get more information about the double coupon ever HERE- remember it is just 5 coupons per day!

And if you have never participated in a doubles event you can see an old list of match ups HERE- hopefully this goes without saying that the list is expired but you can get an idea of why we all get so excited!
