Harris Teeter Took My Lowes Foods Coupon

My awesome friend, Louise, informed me that Harris Teeter would take a $10 off $50 purchase coupon from Lowes Foods. How awesome since I don't shop at Lowes Foods much but shop at Harris Teeter a lot. Sure enough they took it. It is really smart for these companies to take competitors' coupons so you spend your $40 or more at their store instead of the competition.

My 2nd and 3rd Trips to Harris Teeter Super Doubles

I couldn't resist. I had to do a couple of more trips to Harris Teeter for Super Doubles. I found a ton of coupons and can't believe I had overlooked some of them. I could have missed some great deals which is totally not cool.

Here's a picture of what I got:

Here's the breakdown of how I got it:

2 Motts Medleys juices - normally $3.89 each, on sale for $2.50 each, used 2 50c q (Doubled) = $1.50 each ($3.00 total) (these were a new product I wanted to try, so I just waited until they went on sale which happened to be this week)
3 Minute instant rice bowls - normally $2.45 each, on sale for $2.00 each, used 3 50c q (Doubled) = $1.00 each ($3.00 total) (these were something I wanted to get when they were a decent deal so Lee has an instant carb side item when things get crazy around here)
2 Lysol toilet bowl cleaners = normally $2.95 each, on sale for B1G1, used a $1.00/2 q (Super Doubled) = 95 cents for both
2 Lysol wipes = normally $3.49 each, on sale for B1G1, used a $1.00/2 q (Super Doubled) = $1.49 for both

1 Baby lotion = normally $4.29, on sale for $3.79, used $1.00 q (Super Doubled) = $1.79
2 Clearasil wash = normally $4.99 each, on sale for $3.99 each, used $1.00 q (Super Doubled) = $1.99 each ($3.98 total)

I would have spent $209.70.
I had $54.45 in VIC savings.
I had $87.30 in coupon savings.
I had $141.75 (68%) in total savings.
I spent $67.95 (32%).

YAY!!! I was thrilled with this especially considering that $14 of that was the Tyson frozen chicken. I also got a ton of higher priced items (laundry detergents, face washes, shaving creams, Ziplocs, Morningstar "meats", baby lotion). I love getting stuff I really need, matching the coupons and sales, and walking out saving a load. Stockpile craziness!

FUNNY STORY - Lee went with me and we had so much fun. It was fun showing him how I get the deals and telling him my savings. He was cute picking out the stuff and knowing it was such a good deal. I actually had to have a manager override since I "saved too much money". That has not happened to me before and I was excited Lee was there to see it. :)

1st Trip to Harris Teeter Super Doubles

Yesterday I ventured over to Harris Teeter for my 1st (maybe only) Harris Teeter Super Doubles trip. I recommend getting there ASAP and for me that was around 10:00am. I am fortunate that my Harris Teeter is not super popular (yet), so there is a little (just a little) more room to wait.

I had the things that I really wanted to get - Fiber One bars (Lee loves these, I had coupons, and there is a Catalina), Betty Crocker fruit snacks (Luke loves these, I had coupons, and there is a Catalina), Welch's jelly (Lee and Luke love this and they were buy 3, get them for 97 cents each), and then anything else that was a good deal with coupons that were Super Doubled.

Here is a picture of everything that I got:

Here's the breakdown of how I got it:

6 Windex - normally $3.55 each, on sale for $2.50 each, used 3 $1.00/2 coupons (Super Doubled) = $1.50 each ($9.00 total)
3 Windex multi-surface - normally $3.55 each, on sale for $2.50 each, used 3 55cents coupons (2 Doubled, 1 didn't Double - see below) = $1.40 each for 2, $1.95 for 1 ($3.35 total)
6 Ragu pasta sauces (big ones) -normally $3.35 each, on sale for $1.675 each, used 2 $1.25/3 coupons (Super Doubled) = 84 cents each ($5.05 total)
3 Welch's jelly - normally $2.49 each, on sale for 97 cents each (when you buy 3 - you can only do this once if you are an eVIC member) = 97 cents each ($2.91 total)
1 Surf detergent - normally $5.99, on sale for $3.99, used a $1.00 coupon (Super Doubled) = $2.99
3 Clean and Clear face washes - normally $6.49, on sale for $3.99, used 3 $1.00 coupons (Super Doubled) = $1.99 each ($5.97 total)
6 Snyder's pretzels - normally $2.99 each, on sale for $2.50 each, used 3 $1.00/2 coupons (2 Super Doubled, 1 didn't Double - see below) = $1.50 each for 4, $2.00 each for 2 ($10.00 total)
1 Bisquick - normally $3.49, not on sale, used 50cent coupon (Doubled) = $2.49
6 Fiber One bars - normally $3.45 each, not on sale, used 4 50 cents off and 1 50cents/2 coupons (3 Doubled, 2 didn't Double - see below), got back $2.50 Catalina = $2.367 each ($14.20 total)
12 Betty Crocker fruit snacks - normally $2.69 each, on sale for $1.50 each, used 6 50cents/2 coupons (3 Doubled, 3 didn't Double - see below), got back 2 $3.00 Catalinas = 62.5 cents each ($7.50 total)

I would have spent $159.37 (before tax).
I had $49.78 in VIC savings.
I had $36.25 in coupon savings.
I had $8.50 in Catalinas.
I had $94.53 in total savings (59.3%)
I spent $64.84 (before tax) (40.7%).

Why Some Coupons Didn't (Super) Double -
As you guys know, you can only (Super) Double 20 coupons per day per VIC card. I had 27 coupons (11 of them said "DO NOT DOUBLE OR TRIPLE"). I figured that I really only had 16 coupons that would (Super) Double, so I just did my transaction, handed him my pile of coupons, and checked out. Well, he didn't read them and just scanned them so they did double. So when I got to 20 coupons that had (Super) Doubled, the rest did not. Now that might sound like bad news, but it was really good news as I had 4 coupons that ended up (Super) Doubling that I wasn't expecting so I saved a small amount more than I had planned. If in doubt, make sure you use your higher face value coupons first and then hand over your lower value coupons so that the first 20 that do (Super) Double are your bigger savings.

3 Catalina Deals at Harris Teeter

Harris Teeter has some awesome Catalina deals going right now. Just in case you don't know what Catalinas are, they are coupons that print out with your receipt from a special machine (Catalina) after you pay. More specifically, when you purchase certain amounts of certain things, you get a certain amount of money on a coupon to use on your next purchase. It's like getting money back essentially. I LOVE THEM! They are even better when matched with sales and/or coupons.

Here are 3 Catalinas that are going on at Harris Teeter right now:

Kelloggs - Not sure when this ends - Check SouthernSavers.com
Buy 10 Kellogg's items, get a $10 Catalina - if you match that with $1.00 off coupons for cereal, poptarts, and/or Eggo waffles (these are on sale also), you can really make it worth your while as they are having Super Doubles now and the $1.00 coupon would be worth $2.00

Fiber One Bars/Nature Valley Granola Bars - 8/9-9/5
Buy 3, get a $1.50 Catalina
Buy 4, get a $2.50 Catalina
Buy 5, get a $3.50 Catalina
There are usually coupons for these items. The Fiber One bars weren't on sale so they were overpriced as HT overprices things, but I used coupons and then when I got the Catalina, it made them reasonably priced. I needed them anyways. I am not sure about the NVGB as I don't buy those.

General Mills or Betty Crocker Fruit Snacks - 8/9-9/5
Buy 3, get a $1.00 Catalina
Buy 4, get a $2.00 Catalina
Buy 5 or more, get a $3.00 Catalina
These were on sale and there are a ton of coupons on the Internet for them. By the time I matched the coupons with the sale and got the Catalinas back, they were 50 cents a box.

Harris Teeter Super Doubles 8/11-8/17

Sorry to just be posting this but I hadn't seen confirmation about this until I was on my way home from the beach last night.

HARRIS TEETER IS HAVING SUPER DOUBLES 8/11-8/17!!!

I have posted my tips previously for how to manuever Super Doubles but since I can't seem to copy and paste, I will share them again.

Tips for Harris Teeter Super Doubles:

Plan ahead - Go to SouthernSavers.com to find the deals and click the ones you want and print out a list. Find, clip, and organize your coupons for your trip.

Get there early - The deals start at 7:00am so if you really want to get first dibs, be in the checkout line at 7:00am. Now I know that isn't realistic for everyone, but the earlier you get there the better.

Go for the FREE stuff first - These are the deals that go first obviously, so go straight for those when you go in the store. Things that tend to go first outside of the FREE stuff are non-perishables (especially personal care items).

You can only double 20 coupons per day per VIC card - Since you can only do 20 per day per VIC card, get the things you want most first and then go back the next day.

Bring more coupons than you plan to use - Usually you won't get all 20 items/deals you want, so bring backup coupons. I recommend at least 30.

Don't use your coupons that are less than $1.00 unless it is an absolutely awesome deal - Since Super Doubles is so special, don't use your lesser face value coupons until you have used up your $1.00-$1.99 coupons. Those coupons will still double any other time.

They will only double up to the total cost of the item - If you buy something for $2.50 and the coupon is $1.50 off, they will only take $2.50 off (it will show up as $1.50 and $1.00). They don't give you money back.

GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, GET SOME GOOD DEALS, AND IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT, SHARE WITH ME SO I CAN POST ON THE BLOG. ;)

Harris Teeter - Kellogg's Deal

I blogged about the Kellogg's Deal at Harris Teeter the other day. Basically between 8/1 and 8/14, if you buy 10 Kellogg's cereal, poptarts, or cereal bars, Eggo, or Morningstar products, you get $10.00 back to use the next time you shop at Harris Teeter. Well the deal is sweeter because this week from 8/4 through 8/10, Kellogg's products are 50% off. If you match that with coupons (which there are a ton of in the papers), it gets even better. And if you really want to make it better, buy the boxes that have Toy Story 3 movie rewards on them and you can get free stuff like movie tickets, concession bucks, and more on the Kellogg's website.

Well, I decided to go crazy. I don't have a picture because 1/2 of my stuff is still in the van and I am waiting for Lee to get home and unload it. But I will write what I did. It's pretty sweet.

I got 30 boxes of cereal (Raisin Bran, Special K, Cocoa Krispies, Froot Loops, Frosted Flakes, Apple Jacks), 3 boxes of NutriGrain bars, and 8 boxes of poptarts (yes I know it is 41 items because of how my coupons worked out). I divided this into 4 transactions because you can only get 1 $10.00 off per transaction. I also saved my $10.00 coupons to use on regular groceries. I don't recommend using one to buy another deal since it might cancel it out.

All of it would have cost $129.91.
Since everything was 50% off, there was $64.96 in store savings.
I used $18.75 in coupons.
I spent $46.20.
I got back $40.00 to use on another Harris Teeter trip.
I also went on the Kellogg's website and entered the codes I got from 6 boxes of Froot Loops and got $10.00 in concession bucks for the movie theater.

AWESOME DEALS!!!

Awesome Kellogg's Deal at Harris Teeter

Harris Teeter has the best deal on Kellogg's this week. All Kellogg's cereals, cereal bars, and poptarts are 50% off. As if that is not enough, if you buy 10 of any of them, you get a $10.00 coupon for your next transaction at Harris Teeter.

Poptarts are $1.09, cereal bars are $1.77, and most cereals are between $1.50 and $2.00.

If you use coupons (which there are usually a ton of cereal coupons in the paper), it sweetens the deal.

Today I got 10 boxes of cereal, 8 boxes of poptarts, and 3 boxes of cereal bars (yes that is 21 but it made sense with my coupons) and after coupons and the $20.00 I got back, it was roughly $1.50.

Tips:
You can only get 1 $10.00 per transaction. Don't buy 20 of them thinking you will get 2 $10.00 coupons. You won't and you will end up with a mess.
Don't use the $10.00 coupon to do the next Kellogg's transaction. I fear it might override your Catalina and you won't get another $10.00. Not worth the trouble. Just save it for your other shopping trips.

Triples at Harris Teeter 3/24-3/30

I just found out that Harris Teeter is doing Triples next week.

It starts Wednesday, 3/24, and runs through Tuesday, 3/30.

What is Triples?

It's when Harris Teeter triples coupons with a face value of 99 cents or less.

Normal doubling rules apply.

What are Doubling (or Tripling) Rules?

You must have a VIC card to use and double (or triple) coupons.

You can only double (or triple) up to 20 coupons per day per VIC card.

You can only use 3 of an identical coupon.

Tips for Triples:

Shop early. I like to go as early as possible the first day as seasoned couponers get there first thing and the best deals can go pretty fast.

Get the FREE things first. They go first.

Expect that they might not have things. Have back up coupons. I usually like to plan 20 coupons that I really want and bring another 10-20 of backups.

Buy 1, Get 1 Free really means 1/2 price on both. Sometimes they won't let you use 2 coupons on B1G1 Free (ie one for each item). I have not found that to be the case that much.

Where Do You Find the List of Deals?

If you want to see the deals as well as what coupons to use and Internet Printable ones that are available, go to www.southernsavers.com and click on Harris Teeter.

Super Doubles at Harris Teeter 2/17-2/23

I just found out that Harris Teeter is doing Super Doubles next week. It starts Wednesday, 2/17, and runs through Tuesday, 2/23.

What is Super Doubles?
It's when Harris Teeter doubles coupons with a face value of $1.98 or less. Normal doubling rules apply.

What are Doubling Rules?
You must have a VIC card to use and double coupons.
You can only double up to 20 coupons per day per VIC card.
You can only use 3 of an identical coupon.

Tips for Super Doubles:

Shop early. I like to go as early as possible the first day as seasoned couponers get there first thing and the best deals can go pretty fast.

Get the FREE things first. They go first.

Expect that they might not have things. Have back up coupons. I usually like to plan 20 coupons that I really want and bring another 10-20 of backups.

Buy 1, Get 1 Free really means 1/2 price on both. Sometimes they won't let you use 2 coupons on B1G1 Free (ie one for each item).

Be careful of $1/$1.50 off 2 items. They only double up to the total cost of one of the items.

Use your higher face-value coupons ($1.00 and over) before lower face-value coupons (99cents and lower). The coupons under a $1.00 double all the time. If something is a good deal with a coupon under $1.00, then get it after you have exhausted your over $1.00 coupons.

I will put up links to places to find the deals as I find them.
