    Default Meijer Recon Mission....Yeah.. Im lame

    So if you haven't noticed already... I am totally stoked about this stupid Kraft Sale at Meijer that starts for us in Indianapolis tomorrow. I have been totally consumed by it, and my head is spinnng from all the planned transactions. There are some great coupon match ups and all of my transactions have been planned out to a t. If anything is out of stock, I have back up coupons etc.

    I even did the UNTHINKABLE tonight. I went to Meijer and bought a package of OM Selects Turkey Hot Dogs at FULL RETAIL, just to see if my .50/1 coupons from ebay would beep. I scanned the coupon with baited breath to see if went through.....YAY!! IT DID!! NO BEEPS!!

    Background Story: The lady who sold the coupons was not honest in the description and I ended up with 16 coupons that say .50/1 OM Selects instead of .50/1 Any OM Hot Dog as she described when I purchased them. And to top it all off, the coupons are military coupons that say "comissary coupon" where it usually says "manufacturar coupon. Oh, I was livid and left negative feedback on her profile.

    So here I am, all my transactions depend on these funky OM Hot Dog coupons working. The coupons make the hot dogs free. Luckily one variety is included in the sale and I will be able to use them.

    So I check the stock of the rest of my items, and if I get there early enough, I should be able to do all of my transactions. Hopefully being so early in the morning, they will not enforce the new rule.

    If I hadn't went and did my recon mission tonight, I would have lost sleep thinking about those OM HOT DOG Qs...... Thank God, I think everything will be alright.

    You're not lame at all. I walk around my local Kroger or Marsh either Thursday evenings of early on Saturday morning to find unadvertised deals and closeouts. I've found some great deals by spending an hour walking the store. Although with Kroger bringing the hammer down on Qs it's hard to use an IPQ on a closeout or clearance item.
