Coy Catalinas

I discovered today that the register rewards at Walgreens don't print if you use a coupon to get them. For example: Bought Gillette Fusion at $9.49 with register rewards for $2.50. I couldn't combine that transaction with my Huggies purchase because I was using a coupon for the Huggies. I had to do two separate transactions to get the catalina to print. I then went to another Walgreens on my way home to purchase a Venus Embrace razor. It was the same register reward deal as the Fusion. I figured I could use my previous register rewards toward this and still get my catalina. (Don't ask why I thought that. It now makes no sense.) Didn't work. I think this is a crummy deal. Combining coupons with catalinas used to be great and the store still got their money from the coupon. I wash my hands of the situation, but I'll have a lot fewer reasons to go to Walgreens from now on.

Free Windex Wipes

I was going throughy my coupon inserts, and in case you didn't notice, in the SS insert from either 5/3 or 5/10 (sorry, I got my coupons mixed up during those two weeks, so I'm not exactly sure which one it came in), there is a coupon for a free canister of windex wipes or windex antibacterial trigger with mail in rebate (up to 4.50 value). The purchase must be made between before 6/21/09.

Update - UT stores not participating: K-Mart double coupon sale

UPDATE: 6/8: I called K-Mart in UT and they said theUT stores are NOT participating. Sorry!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Supposedly, Kmart is having a double coupon sale week, starting today 6/7 and going through 6/13. On Krazy Coupon Lady, she posted the following from K-mart's corporate:

Straight from KMart: "All stores except locations in Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, Virgin Islands, and select stores in CA, FL, IN, and PA are participating. The stores will only be accepting 10 coupons per customer per day."

I have read on random blogs that this was an unadvertised sale, which is why you didn't see it on the weekly flyer today. However, even if the cashiers are not aware of the sale, the cash registers are supposed to already be set up to automatically double your coupon value, up to $2.

Krazy Coupon Lady has a list of some great ideas on what coupons to double...check it out and good luck if you try it. I hope it works!!
