My 12/27 Target Shopping Round-Up (Saved 97%)

With all the great coupons that were up on the Target website, including many re-set, I headed to target on Tuesday :) I was hoping to find Christmas clearance but it looked like the shelves were wiped clean :( Signage was at 50% off. I was able to find the Mini Chicken Sandwiches and used the new $3/2 making them a mere $0.50 a box! The overage from the $2/1 Olay Bar is great, as it literally paid for my entire trip :) See my trip and coupons used below:

Did the Olay coupons beep at the register and the cashier overrode or was the $2 automatically taken off (I've had it happen both ways)?

Yes. Those are all great online coupon sites @Gringalicious

@Rachel - Many brands also have coupons on their site, i.e. Febreeze.com, Sobe.com, etc. There are also websites that have special promotions and send you printable coupons, two that I am part of are FirstTaste.com and VocalPoint.com, the latter one also sends you full-size products to test out for free. Make sure you also go on Facebook as many brands have printable coupons there as well. Magazines like All You also have coupons in them.

When I went to Target today on the coupons 1/1.00(Tide)it states limit 4 right on coupon . I had gotten 6 with coupons and she gave me back 2 coupons and I had to pay for the 2 trial size at .97 each. I had a line behind me and I felt she was rushing me. I was very upset with my cashier as she said you should know the limit it states it on the coupon very rude in Az at a Target location on Bell.
