Triple Coupon Week!

[csmith17]

It's looking like a Triple coupon week at Ingles!!!

[gapeach]

It sure is....what are your plans?

[lilbit]

I sure wish they would publicize these things a week or two ahead, so I could get ready! I have $24.83 left in my grocery budget money for this week, and most of the stuff on my list so far is not coupon stuff, so it looks like I will be left out on this one. I know it will come around again, but it is always a surprise!

[csmith17]

I haven't really sat down to look at what I have, but at a quick glance I don't have too much. Although I'm going to grab 3 tampons for around .98 cents a piece and then I'm going to grab 3 more at CVS. I'm new at this so I'm getting pretty decent, although not as great as some.

How are you guys doing at ingles? I find it hard to get great deals sometimes just because when I have coupons that don't have anything on sale.

I'm going to get to participate after all I've been trying to move my grocery day from Friday to Monday, so duh, I will just move it back to Friday for this week and do the triples. Already started planning it out. Hope my plan works, may not buy much food, but I put meat in the freezer last week, and I have tons of pasta thanks to Ingles BOGO on Mueller's when I had coupons. Two different times they did this and got 1 lb size boxes of spaghetti and macaroni for .36 each. And FYI, I printed the Mueller's Qs online, and it didn't stop me at 2. I printed 4 and just stopped, so I don't know how many it would have allowed. This is slowly starting to work

Wow you did great!

I just went today but I haven't been taking all of my coupons in because I just recently switched to the binder method and it wasn't organized from this past weekend.

I may just have to take this list and go back

How do you find all of these deals, do you just go isle by isle?

[gapeach]

Yes, this trip I did go aisle by aisle. lol My children were troopers! One of them pushed one buggy and I pushed the other. They were both loaded down! I didn't even have any of my hba coupons with me. I had those in an envelope at home b/c I had not filed them in my binder yet. I wonder if I will have time to go back? I might. I didn't even have any of the coupons from 6/6 in my binder either. I am just now getting those clipped and filed. What items did you get? I like seeing what others buy so I can duplicate their deals. That is what I love about this forum; however, I find myself less and less on here b/c I can't stand the new layout!

Went to Ingles again yesterday. Here are some items I purchased:

(4) Domino Organic Sugar
(12) Jello
(7) Newmans Own Organic Popcorn
(6) Coffeemate Liquid Creamer
(4) Coffeemate Powder Creamer
(2) Texas Pete Chili Sauce
(4) French Fried Onions
(8) Dromidary Pimentos
(2) Texas Pete Hot Sauce
(3)Texas Pete Pepper Sauce
(2)Texas Pete Seafood Sauce
(7) Listerine PocketPack (near register) - use the $1/1 Listerine pocketpack, toothbrush, or mouthrinse
(1) Reach Dental Floss
(1) Gatorade (used Rite Aid video coupon)
(2) Sara Lee Poundcake
(6) Daisy Sour Cream
(4) Lever 2 pk Soap

I had a raincheck for Pork & Beans 4/$5 - I got 20 b/c I had (20) .35/1 blinkie that I traded for (that tripled) so I only paid .20 each for the big can (THANK YOU, COUPONSWAPSTER!)

My totals also include purchasing some fresh Red Peppers and Mentos (treat for dd). I didn't think that was a bad run!

Total retail before coupons: $148.50
Total after coupons/store savings: $30.00 even
Total saved: $118.50
Saved 80%

You guys did awesome. I am going in a little while. I don't know for sure what all I will get (gave almost all of my food Qs away) But we only use Lever 2000 soap and I have 4 Qs, which will give me (4) 2 packs for the price of one. Also getting a couple tubes of Crest (the kind we use is not one of the ones that you get the good deals on with ECBs and CVS) Have a few things I have to get that don't have Qs for, but that will help build my total. At Ingles, they double 3 Qs for every $10 spent, and my grocery budget is $50 so I'm planning to be able to use 15 Qs, but not sure that I will cause I can't go over the $50. If all my deals were like the soap it would be great!
