If you are like me into couponing. Make sure from now on you watch your coupons when checking out at Target. We went to Lexington to the dr. and stopped in at Target on the way home. We had our coupons and also our printed Target web coupons. Which some of them were real good coupons. On the way home my daughter got her ticket out as she said it did not seem the right amount. She got to looking at it and she had 3 coupons for $2.00 off on some Gliatte body wash. They had it on sale for $2.99 which she should have had to pay only 99 cents for it. She checked her ticket and they had gave her $1.64 or $1.69 for only one coupons. Did not take off the right amount and did not take off the other two. We had a Target coupn for Downey for $1.50 off and a manufactor coupon for $2.00 off which made a total of $3.50 off. They only took off the $1.50 coupon. On the Tide we had a coupon for $2.00 off a manf. coupon and a Target coupon for $2.00 I think any way all they took off was $1.50 off. Aslo with some Clorox Wipes a coupon for 75 cents off and one for $1.00 off. Took off only 25 cents. She lost around $11.00 and I lost around $9.00.
Now they are keeping our coupons and get the money out of them and we are not getting anything. They are said to be adjusting down the coupons you give them. On hers it went form $2.00 to $1.64 or $1.60. So keep a watch on your manf. coupons and make sure you get credit for them for the right amount. We stack the Target coupons with our manf. coupons which you are supposed to be able to do.
We called them and they told her to bring the items back in and the ticket. But they have the coupons so it is our word against theirs on it. How can you prove you gave them to them. We all like to save and if it was the other way around and they did not charge me the right amount I would take it back and tell them I owe them more money. It works both ways with me. I would not cheat no one. Do not believe in doing that in anything. And I sure don't believe in lieing. My dad being a preacher brought me up to not cheat, steal or lie and I don't do none of this.
So from now on it don't matter what store you are add add your coupons up in your head or write down the amounts of them on a piece of paper. You need to keep a total in your head. That way you will know if it is the right amount or or not.
With it being hard times and if you know what you are doing you can really save big by using coupons. When the P & G coupon insterts come out in the papers which most of them come out in our local paper on Sat. get theses as they have a lot of good cleaning coupons and candles and air freshners in them.
In our area they come out on the last Saturday of the month. They should also be in the big Sunday papers on this date also.
Sometimes I save as much as $30 to $40 dollars on one order by using coupons. I also get a lot of things free by using coupons on body washes and cereals and candles. Me I am one of these candle freaks. I love candles.
It takes time to do couponing but it is worth it if you have some spare time. Most of the time I get up early before going groc. and get my coupons ready. From now on I will just stick to our Krogers as they double coupons for up to 50 cents and that helps out by doubling.
