    Kaci, I got coupons for you. I'll be out and about your way tomorrow. Do you want me to drop them by your work or leave them at your house?

    If anyone shops at Michaels Craft Store, there is a coupon for 40% off this week AND another 40% off coupon Sun-Tues only.
    If you want mine, let me know.

    I didn't learn of this special until Wednesday! I purchased over $100 at Lowe's late on Tuesday nite (using up my expiring coupons). Despite my chatting with the checkout woman about couponing, and trying to get my expenses down, she DID NOT SAY A WORD about the 10% off special. So much for caring for the customer so they won't go to Walmart!

    I was out and about in Cary this afternoon and found some good buys you might want to know about:

    Kroger:
    Grapes - 99 cents per pound
    Grape tomatoes - $1.00 for a 10 oz container

    Target in Cary at Crossroads:
    Kids snow boots on sale 75% off. Reg price-$19.99, Sale price -$4.98
    Men's boxer shorts - 75% off, $1.75 - $2.24.
    One spot stuff is now marked down to 50 cents. The had some cute
    water bottles, jump ropes, photo albums, workout CD's, pens, foot
    and hand lotions, bath gels, bath scrubbers, and more (can't
    remember everything).

    I hear that Target White Oak also had some good deals on kids shoes.

    Global Bazarre is now marked down to 30% off.

    Harris Teeter:
    Wonder bread 100% whole wheat and the white bread are on sale for
    $1.50. The 55 cent coupon from last weeks paper says Do Not Double
    BUT the bar code starts with a 5 and it did double automatically at
    HT today.....so the loaf of bread was 40 cents!

    Cucumbers are 79 cents and looked pretty good.

    Orville Red. popcorn is BOGO free and if you use 2 of the 40 cent
    coupons, you get a great deal!

    Happy Shopping! :)

    (sorry you missed the 10% off coupon, Animal Lover! It's no fun to miss a good buy!)

    I don't understand why some coupons say, "Do not double." Doesn't this come out of the grocer's pocket? Why would the product manufacturer care?

    If it is a manufactures coupon, the grocer gets reimbursed face value plus a small amout for a handling fee. (less than one cent)

    Thanks Harley for the coupons, good seeing ya again.

    Faye, is the class still on for the 18th? Was in Lowes Foods last week, noticed a woman using the binder and mentioned to her she must have attended one of your classes, she said no but you were her neighbor and had taught her all about it :lol: Seems like you have smart neighbors :D

    I have a question....

    Is there anything constructive we can do with our expired coupons?

    It seems like I heard somewhere that military personel can use them on base even if they are expired?
