I took the survey and it said wait 4-6 weeks for your card to arrive! =)

My Kmart double coupon experience...

Ok. Double Coupon days at KMart! WoO HOo! Unless you are my and get screwed. Now, don't get me wrong...I did SPAVE! However...no nearly as much as I should have. 3 seperate sales. Let us start w/the first.

I put on the counter...

Monopoly Electronic Banking Edition.
Pictureka card game
Matchbox car
birthday card
2 sets of 6pk Joe Boxer socks

total is roughly $51.

I now have a
$5 off your purchase of $50 or more.
$10 off Monopoly Electronic Banking edition
$5 off $20 or more toy purchase
$5 off Pictureka game.

So, I should have gotten atleast $25 off.
However, the girl behind the counter couldn't comprehend this. She took off the Monopoly coupon first, and then the pictureka coupon. There fore, telling me I couldn't use the $5 off the $50 purchase. Nore could I use the additional $5 off the $20 toy purchase since I had coupons on both the other items. When I told her that this was incorrect and I wanted her to fix it..she rolled her eyes and asked "Well, could you just pay for it and then go fix it at Customer Service?" UM WHATNOW?! no! So she calls over Janice. She is the CSR for KMart. Wow...talk about RUDE. She rolled her eyes and when I asked about the policy and argued it she told me all the rules are by the front register if I wish to read them. So, needless to say I wound up not getting HALF the stuff. I bought the Bday card, the Pictureka game and the matchbox care totaling $7.39 Total savings of $5

Second purchase..same store, same time. I bought

2 cover girl eyeshadows
soft soap
bobby pins
listerine pre rinse whitening
headband multi pak thing
3pk of disposable Venus razors
Aleve 100ct w/free 24ct bottle
trial size purel

Now, I had these coupons
$3 off any purchase
$5 off $25 beauty/health
$1 off Covergirl
$2 off Listerine
$2 Aleve
.60 off Purell

Well, I couldn't use the $5 off beauty/health bc the girl scanned all my other coupons first. So, I did get $3 off, plus $2 off the eyeshadows(that were BOGO), $4 off the listerine and the Aleve as well...and $4 off the Venus. Oh, and the Purell was on;y like $1.29 so I got it for .09 cents.
Total for this one was $15.88 total savings of $13.39!

Third trip was this morning. I went to a different Kmart. I was much happier. I originally spent $32.97. However after coupons I spen $19.83. I'll tell you what I got.

joe Boxer converse on clearance for $9.99
Febreeze room spray
Swiffer duster spray
Mr Clean Magic Erasers
box of Cocoa Krispies
Box of Cinnamon streussel mini wheats
Cascade rinse agent

So, if you think about it...I only spent roughly $10 on non sale stuff.

I had
.50 off Febreeze
.75 off Magic erasers
FREE cascade rinse agent
$1.00 each cereal
$1 off Swiffer spray.

All in all I did pretty good...but it really gets my goat that I couldn't have SPAVED more...damn kids and thier crummy jobs!

Wordless Wed...can anyone guess how old I was??

An actual entry...

Yes yes, it is true...I am actually WRITING an entry and not just posting a picture! Well, Brandon is officially here. He is the cutest thing ever. He is very well behaved! And very agreeable! lol. We are spending our first night alone together tonight. Dave got a ticket to see Nine Inch Nails for $25 bux, and as it is his favorite band...next to Fear Factory I think, lol I couldnt tell him no! But Brandon and I have some stuff to do for Fathers Day and I think we are going to hit Applebees for dinner with Kristen. Maybe Leana if she is up for it.

I have lost 4.6lbs total on Weight Watchers! YAY! It has only been 3 weeks...so it is pretty good! Still have like 96 to go! ha!

Also, I have become quite the little coupon clipper. I refuse to shop anywhere else but Wal*Mart and I usually only buy stuff on sale or with a coupon! Thanks to all the handy little blogs over on my blog list...I am constantly printing coupons out! I even found one for 15%off my total order at Old Navy!

Speaking of..I better get going, I have alot to do today! Thanks to all the coupon blogs out there!! WOO HOO! I leave you with a pic of Brandon and his Daddy...no denying he is Davids lol!

Wordless Wed...

I haven't done one in a while, so I figured I would do one of Davids son Brandon. He will be here in 10 days!!!!

Wordless Wed!
