My Walmart deals and reminder to watch when your coupons are added
I decided to brave the Walmart crowds and go stock up on my Olay Regenerist while it was on sale. Got an excellent deal at $18.97 each. Shoppers price is $34 and Zellers sale price is $22. So I got three Olay products and used my $10 off coupon and then total was $50 so I got to send in for my $20 gift card!! I am so happy. :)
Then I had a coupon for a FREE Pledge product that I cut from a flyer that comes with the newspaper....smart source or brandsavers....forget. Walmart had bonus packs of two pledge areosols for $4 something. At first the clerk said the coupon says it is only for one can, but I pointed out that the package was a special deal of buy one get one free so she put it through. Two Free! :) I also had another FREE coupon for the Pledge multiduster kit. The two products make a nice stocking stuffer for someone.
I needed cat food so picked up a bag of IAMS kitten food at the sale price of $8.88 and used my Save.ca $5 off coupon. When I got home I found more coupons inside the bag! $3 off on Swiffer sweeper set, $3 off on IAMS cat food, $1 off two Febreeze products. :)
I saved a total of $22.44 in coupons.
I also found a lot of ladies tops in the clearance section for $4.00 each! Marked down from $19.95. The George label. Nice!
Now a warning and reminder to everyone! Be sure to watch carefully when they enter the coupon values. My $10 off Olay was entered as .10 cents! The clerk caught it though and added in $9.90. With FPC's they always rescan the item (unless it's Sobey's and they just roll back the tape on the screen for the price). Then they get the price, fill in the coupon and then decuct it again from the bill. My clerk forgot to deduct it. She noticed her mistake though and corrected it. I've had clerk scan things multiple times and I always wonder if they added another one or what? confusing sometimes. So watch and check your receipts! Also watch when stuff is on sale that the sale price comes up. I like to use the in store scanners and check myself and then I also remind the clerk that this or that is 50% off today. Kind of hard to do at places like Sobeys when you have a ton of stuff to put up. I picked up 4 boxes of Ziplock sandwich bags on sale for 99 cents and then got home to see they rang up $2.69 a box!! So be careful!
