Can you print more than one? Also, I have read that CVS sends an email with coupons. I have a CVS card and am signed up on line, but the only coupons that I seem to get are for on-line purchases. Am I missing something? When you leave a link for $5/25 CVS coupon, are we allowed to print it from that link, or do we need to go to CVS site to obtain a coupon. Can you print more than one?

At one time, I did not pay attention to All & Mighty laundry detergent deals, I kind of read it from HCW but have not read into it so I thought to myself, I will pass on the deal(sometimes there are too many deals and having to work full time and part home school my kido, sometimes it is a challenge to find times to do all the free deal). One night while I was in Publix, I thought might be I should see how much All & Mighty detergent cost and wanted to buy it at BOGO but forget to bring coupons and also the detergent was out, so I went to get some rain check. And low and behold, these 2 weeks, All & Mighty was $2.99, with BOGO RC + $1 coupon + $5 off $25, they are free. This is really a blessing because 2 months ago, we bought a front loader energy efficient washer and dryer and I did not have any energy efficient laundry detergents (all my stock piles were normal ones) and man I tell you after extreme couponing, to buy full retail price is like cutting a piece of your skin, painful :):) Now with BOGO RC and sales price of $2.99, I am stock piling All energy efficient laundry detergent free :) Yes, RC is really useful.

We can mail them because I live outside of G'ville though. I can't wait until I start paying 1.00 or so out of pocket like some of you. I think one thing that hampers my experience, is that I go to the Lake City Publix since I have classes at LCCC. So, they will not allow any kmart or target coupons. Do you guys know if the Publix's in G'vill take Petsmart coupons for pet products? I have also been doing CVS shopping and I am doing lots better there. But do let me know if you want to do a coupon exchange.

I think they need to have a checkout just for couponers, like they have an express line. Just my thought. I'm planning on Uncle Bens, pasta, eggs, apples, glass cleaner, cookie dough, and cereal. I've already printed out 10 pasta coupons, ordered 10 Uncle Bens coupons on monday, so should be a pretty good week. I know I can't do too many frozen items right now. I have to clean out my freezer and get it organized and pass out goody bags to the couple of families that I am now helping. I have also been able to help out at work with the Food for Families food drive for Thanksgiving. I've actually had a couple people at work just give me money to go do their shopping for them to help fill up the boxes. Too funny !!! Nice to hear all the comments though.

Like Liz, I encourage those behind me to use another cashier to reduce their wait time; most of the time it doesn't seem to matter to them - the manager is always always accessible for cashiers who need an override. On smaller (eg $25) trips I get filler items just to make it easier on everyone. The cashier last week told me I could come with more than one transaction through her line - "because you've had to spend so much time in the store" ... it's funny before couponing I spent WAAYY more time in the store (trying to do compare, do the math and shop at the same time). I went to two stores and did 8 trips in and out in about 2.25 hours. The only store I’m really really comfortable with big checkouts is SC.

Maybe this person is someone who comes to this website? If so, please share your experience or email me @ volcanorain@yahoo.com This way of checking out would be different than how we often try to buy filler items and staying away from the customer service radar. I like the idea of not causing too much attention to myself... I just want to know what you guys do to have a smooth check-out, I try to let people know that come in line behind me that it maybe a longer than usual check out due to coupons, but it seems someone never fails to slip in anyways and often they get frustrated having to wait extra. I am super organized with my coupons for check-out, so that's not the issue, it's just I always have so many of them. In no way shape or form am I considering giving up couponing- I save way too much! But I wish people behind me would not get frustrated. Please share you thoughts.
