Since you, too, shop at the BP Rainbow, do you know if they use the shelf or sale prices to make the $25 minimum? Each week I try to make sure I have a $25 total after ALL of my deals just to be sure but if it’s the other way around, that is helpful to know, too. I don’t want to be tossing in un-needed fillers if it’s not necessary! :)

Also, this week I had a young man as a cashier bee bopping to his own tune (actually rapping out loud while scanning!) who wouldn’t double the DND’s, just so you know. I’m normally a north of 610 Cub shopper but I cease to be amazed in Rainbow.

Thanks!

I love Roundy’s and hope they don’t change their policies!

Just wanted to thank you so much for this site. I use it several times every week and you have saved me so much time and money. I shop the Brooklyn Park location and dont usually have many issues. There is one CP cashier there (a middle aged lady with long brown hair) who I avoid but most of the cashiers there are young and dont really care, they just scan the coupons and as long as they ring up, they don’t give you any hassle. I usually get comments from people in line around me how amazed they are with all my coupons and how much money I save. I went yesterday and did two transactions with 20 coupons and it was awesome. I went about 4pm and even though I may not know those of you who shop at this location, I know they are out there as most of the items that are the best deals, are usually quite picked over. Sometimes they are even gone so I have to come up with some deals on my own. It is always a great feeling when you cash out and know you have saved yourself so much money. Thanks so much!

Buy 6 for $6.00 use 3/1.00 coupons and you will receive a coupon for your next shopping trip for $4.00.
Buy 5 gets you a 3.00 coupon for your next trip
Buy 4 gets you a 2.00 coupon for your next trip

I assume you don’t need to buy 10 to get the price as it states that you will save up to 6.90 on 10

I went yesterday and did okay but not to the 75% savings yet. Getting better though. I did see someone with a coupon box in her cart. I need to get mine so I can bring extras for when they are out of items I want/or for in store specials like the post its. Learning curve.

Hope this helps some.

I shopped my favorite St. Louis Park store in the evening. All my coupons doubled no matter what the wording. I am getting to know them and them me, which is as it should be. I think they trust that I’m bringing legitimate coupons, or else that store just has not had the problems other stores have had…yet. I spent a total of $74.39 and used a total of 68.25 in doubled coupons and other incentives for a total of $174.10 of groceries and an average savings of 58%. I also earned a .30 cents a gallon up to 25 (or is it 20?) gallons of gas, a $3.50 coupon for milk and 50 Bonus Box Tops (in coupon form) for our church’s elementary school. I am happy with my part-time job this week!

8 boxes Pop Secret (raincheck from last week): $1 – $1/2 = 8 FREE
2 Starkist tuna pouches: $1 – $1/1 = 2 FREE + $1.30 overage
1 Buddig lunch meat tub: $2.50 – $1/1 = $.50
2 gallons Kemp’s milk: $5 – $.60/2 – $3.50 GM Catalina = $.30
2 tubs Daisy sour cream BOGO (raincheck from last week): $2.19 – $.50/1 = 2 for $1.19 (wouldn’t take the second $.50/1 coupon on the free tub, but who can complain with all the other great deals I got?)

With the bananas I bought, I got all that for $1.74! With all three of my transactions combined I spent $16 on about $100 in groceries.
