++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Also, I thought I would put together some scenarios for newbies.  I know how discouraging it can be to see these great deals, but because you don’t have coupons you can’t get the deals.  Here is a scenario using ONLY internet printables that are currently available!

Buy:
(2) Bumble Bee Tuna 2.5 oz Pouches $1 each
(2) Dole Canned Mandarin Oranges or Tropical Fruit $1 each
(2) Betty Crocker Pouch Potatoes $1 each
(4) Carnation Evaporateed Milk $1 each
(2) Keebler Fudge Shoppe Cookies $1.49 each
(2) Sunny Delight Smoothies $1.39 each
(1) Yoplait YoPlus Yogurt 4 pack $1.99
(2) Chocolate Chex Mix $1.99 each
(1) Skinny Cow Ice Cream Cones $2.99
(1) Welch’s Grape Juice $2.49
(1) All Small & Mighty Laundry Detergent $3.49
= $30.70
*That is a total of 20 Mega Event participating items which means (2) $5 promo discounts should automatically deduct from your order.  If any of these items are out of stock, make sure to buy another participating item to take it’s place.  If you were to buy 9 items instead of 10, you would pay $4.50 extra!
– $10 Mega Event Discount
Use these printable coupons (Each coupon will print twice! Click on the link, print, click the back button on your browser until the coupon begins printing again.)
(2) $1/1 Bumble Bee Tuna

(1) $1/1 All Laundry Detergent

Pay: $4.50!! for all 20 items!

Don’t forget to scan your Kroger card first and all the coupon doubling and mega event discounting should take care of itself!  You also might want to print a couple other printables to take with you in case something is out of stock.  Be prepared!
