"Overage Excitement!" Walmart and Old Navy Brag!!!

[Koolaid]

Here's your song for the week!

As requested by Shwa Girl

Overage Excitement
(Please sing-a-long to I'm So Excited by the Pointer Sisters)

Today's the day I'm gonna make it happen
Today I'll put all other sales aside
Get up in time and show me stock's direction
We're goin' for those overages on the right.

I want to save you, free you, pay for all your shoppin'
I want to pay you, please you, I just can't save enough
And if you move real slow the stock will go

Overage excitement and I'm not gonna pay it
I'm about to get it free and I think I like it
Overage excitement and I'm not gonna pay it
And I know I know I know I know I know it pays you (pays you)

We shouldn't even think about tomorrow
Toilet paper seats won't last a long, long time
I'll have to rush, Baby, don't you worry
And if I'm playing fair the shelves will be stocked just fine

Overage excitement and I'm not gonna pay it
I'm about to get it free and I think I like it
Overage excitement and I'm not gonna pay it
And I know I know I know I know I know it pays you (pays you)

I want to save you, free you, pay for all your shoppin'
I want to pay you, please you, I just can't save enough
And if you move real slow the stock will go

Overage excitement and I'm not gonna pay it
I'm about to get it free and I think I like it
Overage excitement and I'm not gonna pay it
And I know I know I know I know I know it pays you (pays you)

Walmart

So I had no intentions of getting anything really this week but when the autistic son wants popcorn....he repeats his request at every meal...at everyone's house (Thanks Mom and Dad for feeding the boy some on the weekend). So after noticing that both the Kraft shredded cheese and Old El Paso kits dropped in price at Walmart...I gathered up my last 5 reciepts and went to the customer service desk. The lady was wonderful slowly getting my money back! I was up $5.86!!

I lucked out, especially being a Monday...usually the shelves are bare from the weekend...there was a bin full of Charmin Toilet seat covers and even 4 Oral B glide flosses!!! I was so happy! This was an unexpected surprise! I also grabbed 2 lean cuisines for after swimming lessions tomorrow....I so don't want to cook!

My bills was:
27 Charmin Toilet Seat Covers $1.00 each - 9x B3S$4 coupons= $9 overage
4x Crest Pro Health $1.00 - 4x $1 coupons = free
4x Oral B floss $3.67 - 4x Free WUB Pro Health rinse = free
Orville Popcorn sale $2.97
2x Lean Cuisines $1.97 each
Subtotal $-2.09
Tax $5.94
Total Paid $3.85

I'm still up $2.01 from my price adjustment....till I lost my toonie somewhere....so if you find a toonie at Walmart...spend it well my friend...spend it well.

I also met another SC'r (sorry I forgot your name) who was wonderful!!

I saved a total of $54.68!

Next I went to Old Navy with my Mom to use our Super Cash up! Dad came too and found stuff so fast for himself!

I had picked out a few shirts for myself and joined my Mom trying on coats. She found a really nice coat marked down from $60 to $22.97! Then Dad told me to try on a coat....I was leary because I didn't want to spend more that the $10 plus tax I had allocated myself. (I had a buy $20 save $10.) I put it on and it was so nice....ahhhhh!!! Mom had had enough of "see through" clothes and said...I'll get it! I'm still in shock!!! So I put back 2 shirts and took one sweater from my Dad's clothing pile so I wouldn't feel so guilty!

My bill was
2 pair of winter gloves reg $4.95 sale 99 cents
2x scoop style shirt reg $22.94 sale $3.97
Dad's sweater reg ? (on the tag at my parents) sale $11.99
Subtotal $20.92
Minus Supercash $10 discount
Total with Tax $12.34!

Mom spent $60 and saved $30....which my new coat was
originally $99.94 sale $32.99
She paid $2.99 for my coat!!

I love my parents!!
(And yes Shwa Girl she is aware of your adoption request....awaiting the paperwork...)

Thanks again for reading and singing! Don't forget to tip the lady with a if you sang along!

Have a great week everyone!!
(And I'm running low on requests...please send me more!!)

Koolaid, I think you need to go to Shopoholics Anonymous......it's only MONDAY and you weren't going to shop this week!!!

I love the ON sales at this time of year....got a couple coats for $18, quilted vest $11, polar fleece gloves $1.39 which I wished I'd bought more of for next Christmas's donations : /

way to go koolaid -i got a coat last spring at old navy its a nice lime green wool -ever warm too in the winter -looks similar to your grey one ther -i only paid like 17.00 -awesome deals you got there-its nice to get new clothing

[torontogal12]

lol loved the song! But a question: Did you strike up a conversation with someone and bring up SC or did they bring it up. Just wondering how this would play out in real life if I ever encountered someone else I thought was an SCer in a store!

Actually I was about to warn her that I had a ton of coupons and she asked me if I was on SC...as simple as that! Anytime another SC'r has found me they usually notice my coupon binder (bag in my case) and ask! Hope you meet someone someday! I'll be either in my new coat or my old bright yellow one....

[torontogal12]

Ha!!! One day when I'm at the in-law's! They are in your neck of the woods.

I'm still laughing at your parents "adopting" me.

That was a great song. Thanks for taking my request and putting it to words.

Love that you son was determined to get his popcorn -- telling EVERYONE who would listen. Popcorn is not too bad, eh? Plus, he likes spinach too, so he's doin' pretty good.

You really cleaned up at the Old Navy with that 90% savings on a winter coat -- $2.99 Wow!

I could be wrong but it seems that your Dad is getting to be an expert at saving and shopping. Way to convert your Dad!

Great "family" brag - with your mom, dad and son participating.

Wow, way to go! Your new coat looks wonderful! I love Old Navy and their clearances

[AshleyRobertson]

Wtg! Great brag. I got the exact same coat except different colors. Mine is grey and black. LOVE it. It is super warm. I got mine in the states for $25 over Christmas. They had them for 60% off. I was stoked so I know you are too!
