A little known secret about bloggers (at least this blogger)- we spend so much time bringing you the hot deals- we don’t have time to chase them ourselves!
I did make it to Kmart but I literally spent 5 minutes planning my trip. This isn’t very impressive but it does go to show you can save a lot of money with coupons without investing a lot of time.
I spent about $5. I tried to purchase dish soap that was listed on another blog and the deal did not work for me, so I returned the items. Originally it was $14.72 and I got $8.75 or so back.
Here is the breakdown:
Peter Pan PB $2.50- used $1 coupon from Kraft
Vaseline Lotion- $3.49- used 1.25/1 insert coupon x 2
Balmex $4.99- used $2/1 coupon
Listerine $4.29- used $2/1 insert coupon
Huggies wipes $2.99- used (1) 1.50/1 coupon and (2) 1/1 coupons (NOTE: you can use bath and body coupons on wipes)
fruit chillers $1.99- used $1/1 coupons from redplum.com
A1- $4.49- used $2/1 printable
I also got a $3 catalina from the promotion- so a net spent of about $2. I might make a diaper run later this week if time allows.

My Kmart wouldn't double my coupons today after I got an email from Kmart Corp saying they would! BOOOO!! I had big plans… LOL

Oh Charlene you are TOO right about not being able to shop because you're too busy writing the deals it drives me crazy. All the great TP clearance was gone before I got a second chance at Wags and never got a meter but thanks for the tip.
