Stupor Target and other fun stops

Whenever you break out of your normal routine and shop a different location, it’s usually a bust.  Case in point today at another Target.  First they had only a few packs of the Cesar treats (stacking the coupons does equal free), which is weird, since the deal started at least ten days ago, so plenty of time to restock.  Then I get a cashier who has to scrutinize every friggin coupon.  every.  one.  Here’s a flash from the cape people:  “If you are buying multiple items, exactly the same, there is no need to study each coupon and then exclaim that that one is alright.  It’s a given.

Next waste of time was at Ultra.  They apologized for not having the Purex 3 in 1 sale packs (never got them in from warehouse) and gave me a rain check. Driving over for free Kitten Chow and two rolls of ghastly tp is a waste of time, although cs was very nice.  And it’s not their fault the warehouse screwed up.

Then the CVS  (in Wheaton on Roosevelt/Blanchard) on the way home had the same lone bottle of Sobe that had been there on Sunday.  However, they did have the Crest Pro-Health Enamel Shield on the clearance counter as you come in for either $1.34 or $1.45 (two prices, both 440 ml size).  No coupons out there, but if you need mouthwash, it’s a pretty decent price.  There were probably 5 or 6 that I saw on top, maybe more underneath the pile.

Target

A rather old deal, but one I’ll probably pick up on tomorrow is the Cesar dog treats which are a TPC (temporary price cut) at most stores for $2.99.  There is a $2 mfr coupon in the 8/8 RP, which makes it better, but when you stack the $1 Target store coupon from the 5/23 RP you get my favorite word:  FREE!  I’ll post tomorrow what I can find.  Do I really need more CBAD?


Target – updated

OK, here is a little teaser to get you through the day until you can hit those stores!  Picked up all the following:  12 cans of Chef Boyardee Whole Grain (it’s our new health food!), bunch of over-priced cilantro, bunch of Chiquita bananas, two four-pair packs of Champion athletic socks and two demi loaves of Asiago cheese bread (I have no idea how those got in my cart – honest!).  Paid the bill with a gift card from prior deals.  Oh, my total?  $.72,  mostly tax.  sigh, taxes are the killer on these deals.  Will post more Target store coupons later.

Note:  I’ve added the Target CBAD and bakery/bread coupons.  Credit to SD

Target 8/12 $1.15 OOP

Stopped at Target with the family to pick up some socks and stuff.  Naturally we didn’t get any of that stuff, so settled for more of the same ole.  I ended with 30 bottles of Sobe, 12 cans of Chef Boyardee (ooh, healthy whole grain), 3 lbs of bananas and a cheese bagel (hmmm, which disappeared before I could photo it…).  By combining store and mfr coupons, the register amount kept dropping.  Sort of like a limbo register (how low can you go).   Remember to keep playing the Sobe game to score your free BOGOs and try to pick out only the game caps.  Target always has a bunch of store coupons, which you can print out and stack with the mfr coupons.  They currently have a $1 off produce coupon and a $.50 off bakery coupon; both the $1 Chef Boyardee and $ .50 Sobe coupons seem to have vanished.  When you see great deals like this, print them out and save for another sale.  In this case, print out the produce and bakery.  If I can locate more of the CBAD and Sobe store coupons, I’ll post same.
