Great job this week. I really need to get back into couponing.

Questions!

1) How did you know the Loreal haircolor was clearance so you just happened to have the coupons? Did you get it off the clearance rack or did you find that matchup somewhere?

2) I thought the Aussie deal was limit one per customer... or did I miss something?

Thx!

Hi Carrie - 1. I went to Publix 2 weeks ago and noticed they had tons of it on clearance, so when I got home I clipped the coupons from the inserts and clipped the coupon from the Green Advantage Flyer and kept them in my purse until I went back in there. 2. Yes, the Aussie is a limit of one. I only got the ECBs for the 1st order not the second. I got the $2 ECBs on the 2nd order from the Colgate.
Hope that helps!

I went to the Publix on Bullsboro this evening to pick up the Lysol specials. I was told they had a BIG meeting on "coupons" this morning and she had to ring up each item separate! She said only one coupon per item per transaction (of the same item).

Oh no Diane! How long did it take you to check out? Patience is a virtue, one of which I lack.

Thankfully I only had a few items and the cashier was very nice, just trying to explain. All went well, just a heads up!
