I have a couple of friends that cashier at our Walmart, so I'll just make sure I go thru their aisle. Thanks for posting!!!Blondie said:deewee said:Why did I not know this?!? Thank you!!!!!

Since I haven't done my shopping yet, I will have to see how it goes. I honestly plan to see just how well I can do on this challenge. I know I'm not going to starve to death, but I also acknowlege that it is going to be a completely different lifestyle than what I currently have. But, I've already looked at SouthernSavers to see how I can use coupons and I've started planning my meals, including what to do when I'm on the go.
Walmart price matches. You have to have he ad. I usually use Publix ad for the BOGO. I'm going today and have several ads to take. If you can match coupons to sales you save the most. This week Publix has International Delight Coffee Creamer BOGO and I have a 75 cents off coupon t put with it. (Of course I have more coupons to match the sales). Also, if you go to Target you can use Target coupons with manufactures coupons stacked. (This goes for any store that offers their own coupons).
A few weeks ago Ingles had Tetley tea on sale for $1.00 a box. I had two 75 cent off coupons and printed out 4 $1.00 off coupons. I got 6 boxes of Tetley tea for 56 cents.
You have to luck up on the right cashier to get Walmart price on the BOGO items though. That sucks! Some cashiers will charge the store ad (say Publix) price then you get the other one free. Like, coffee creamer Publix price is (IDK) $3.58 and Walmart's price is $2.98, they will charge you $3.58 plus the one free. BUT if you can luck up on the right cashier they will just do Walmart's price and the one free.
Today I was able to get 2 dozen eggs (1 dozen each carton) for 99 cents because Walgreens or CVS one has a dozen eggs on sale for 99 cents. The other drug store mentioned has milk $2.79 a gallon and I got that at Walmart too. IT's just the BOGO they charge the higher price for, but a lot of times it still comes out cheaper because you get two.
You're very welcome! Yes, the compactors coupons have to have a price listed. Like a Target coupons for mayo would have to say 50 cents off Kraft mayo. regular $2.99 per jar. Or Kraft Mayo BOGO you save $2.99 a jar. I can't hardly find any coupons that do have the price listed though. They will NOT take coupons that say Kraft mayo 20% off. It has to be a dollar amount. Oh, and I can't get Walmart to price match ground beef because of the way Walmart's ground beef is packaged. They always say, "We don't sell it by the pound." It aggregates me because if you look at the price tag on the shelf it has a per pound price listed. Even when I brought that up they still refused. I did send Aldi an email and ask how much their 5 lb. roll of ground beef is. They answered me with the price, I printed the email and used it for awhile. The last time I used it Walmart refused because she said the email was 3 months old. Now, we just run up to Aldi and pick up stuff we can get cheaper.
