Harris Teeter started triple coupons on Wed. and it will continue on until Tues.  I have made several trips this week and I am super excited about the deals I have done. Lots of times I see people post about the great deals their stores offer and wish mine would offer the same. I must say Harris Teeter is more than granting that wish this week! Not only are they offering triple coupons but they are also offering the following promotions:

• Purchase 3-7 boxes of any Kellogg’s cereals (12 oz or larger) get Free milk!
  • Buy 3 boxes get 1 Free gallon of milk.
  • Buy 5 boxes get 2 Free gallons of milk.
  • Buy 7 boxes get 3 Free gallons of milk.
• Purchase any 8 Kellogg’s products get a certificate for $10 back.
• Purchase Post cereals get up to $5 back
• Purchase 10 participating products get $4 off instantly. Products include Pillsbury rolls and biscuits, Green Giant frozen veggies, Tostino’s pizza rolls.

What makes the Kellogg’s promotion even better is they have the Frosted Mini Wheats on sale BOGO and hanging by the boxes is a blinkie machine with $1/1 coupons! Even though I ran out of .70/1 Kellogg’s coupons I have used those to get the cereals for .71 a box. Meaning if I purchase 8 boxes with (8) $1/1 coupons I am only spending $5.68 buy I am getting back $10! That is a $4.32 profit!!! I have purchase SEVERAL Post Honey Comb cereals because they are on sale for 2/$4 with .55/1 coupons that triple to 1.65/1. So for every 5 boxes I spent 1.75 but got back $5! That was a $3.25 profit! The 5ct Grands Flaky biscuits are on sale BOGO $1.59 and I have .75/3 coupons that triple to 2.25/3. I purchase 10 cans for $1.20 and the register automatically took off $4! That was a profit of $2.80! With all that being said let me show you how I have done so far:

I have wanted one of these for quite a while and I was searching through Amazon and found it SUPER CHEAP!!! This thing is awesome. I am the type that is always forgetting something when I go shopping because I make a list and leave it sitting on my desk. What makes this deal even better is you can get free Super Saver Shipping because it is just over $25! This thing retails for $149.95 and is worth the reg retail price but they are practically giving it away and paying for the shipping too! Watch the video to see how this thing works.

I just hope you all save me at least one because payday is not until tomorrow !

*This was only supposed to be $2.50 off but somehow when the manager overrode it she keyed in the 4.59 twice? I’ll take it .
** I should have picked up 2 gallons of milk instead of the one because I purchased the 6 boxes of cereal.

Those were not the only mistakes made. I forgot to get the Pop Tarts the first time around so I had to have CS refund and re-ring the cereals and pop tarts so I would get the $10 rebate slip. The good thing that happened was the first time around when I paid for the 7 boxes of cereal they handed me the 3 milk tickets and when I had to return and repay I got another 3 milk tickets. So I have 6 milk tickets now. I will get back the $10 rebate card and $3 Lysol rebate making my total $13.10 and of that 6.76 was not part of the Kelloggs, Lysol and milk promotions! The Kellogg’s, Lysol and milk promotions will only cost 6.34! All in all I did pretty good.
