~Meijer Trip~

I have been sick for last week so I have a few trips to post and will try to do to that later tonight but for now here is my Meijer trip.

I have to say while I was there I came across two women with their binders and coupons in hand. At first I was happy to see someone using coupons and saving money, then I looked at their carts…they had to have at least 20 if not more jars of salsa . Ok I know its free after coupon BUT Meijer only doubles the first 2 like coupons, so they had to do at least 5 different transactions  each. This to me is a little much, you don’t need 20 jars of salsa (I really want to say they had more then that but I'm being conservative) even if you did need that much I could never ask a cashier to do 5 different transactions just to get around a coupon policy. Coupon policy’s are there for a reason and the more people who are greedy and work around them, the more trouble we as couponers will have.  Sure enough as I was headed for the checkout they were standing at the end of the line I wanted to get in , practically blocking the checkout with their two carts.  As they were separating their orders I went around them. I wanted to hang around just to see if they really did that many orders but I was feeling pretty rough so we went ahead and left.

There is also a rebate for the FiberPlus so will be getting that back also

I could have done separate transactions and got all the Ball Park free but I really hate doing that and $.23 a pack is a really great price.  Also I was hoping I got $3 twice for the juicy juice Kellogg deal since I bought four of each but no only one $3 came off. I kinda figured that but my coupons were off of four so I may go back and do that deal again with different coupons.

*To find the Ball Park $.75 coupon click on the link above and there should be  a Ball Park Banner at the top of the page wait until it says save $.75 then click it and it will take you to the page. If the banner is not showing up keep refreshing the page until I does. That may take a few times.*
