I went to Kmart early this morning and probably had one of my best trips yet! My cart was overflowing by the time I finished up shopping. After ringing up everything my total came to just over $280! Once all my coupons were scanned... 29 minutes later... my total dropped down to $25.16, with $9.37 being tax! I was super exited and walked out of there with a smile I couldn't seem to wipe off my face! I was one proud coupon lovin' momma! Oh and yes, that's me with one loooooooooooooooooong Kmart receipt!Some new highlights:
Pepsi product 12 pks $4.39
Use the $2 coupon from the Pepsi/Frito Lay rebate
Final cost .39!
Huggies Wipes (32-40 ct) $1.99
Use the $1 Huggies Bath & Body coupon from the 1/11SS
Final cost FREE!
Final cost FREE!
I was so glad that I brought the $1 Rubbermaid coupons from the 3/1SS with me. I ended up finding quite a few Rubbermaid products priced from $2.50-$5... so the smaller containers ended up being just .50! YAY!
**I have added all the new deals to the Kmart Doubles Deal List! You may want to look over the list again before you go shopping!
Have FUN and let me know what you snag!:)

That is amazing!! It is so depressing that our Kmart does not participate in the double coupons!
Way to go girl! This is awesome. I love your blog and I check it daily. I am off to Kmart in the a.m. and hopefully I can snag some deals like you!!!!!!
So jealous! Our kmart closed in february for remodeling.
Did you get to use internet coupons?
You are so freakin' cute :) I love the picture of you with the receipt! I wish my Kmart was doubling coupons!
Hey Hipt to Save....Does your Kmart let you do all your items at once or do you have to split up your transactions into groups of 25coupons? Mine is saying that I can only do 25 coupons???
Congradulations! OMG!!! I hope that I can do that good. That is BY FAR the longest receipt I have EVER seen!! You are SUCH an inspiration to me :D (Oh is that for today 3/22 or last month, just noticed the date :)
When did you get your Pepsi/Frito rebate coupons? I still haven't gotten mine :-( You put my transactions to shame!! Thanks for your hard work!
great job!!! very impressive! I wish Kmart would double coupons here :(
Holy guacamole! lol, NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow, you amaze me! I wish our Kmart would participate in this!
Woohoo! I am so jealous, my kmart does not double!
Oh my gosh that is amazing, W2G!! We have a Kmart nearby but I just don't have it in me to add that to my stores I shop at...You may have changed my mind,LOL!!

I just went to Kmart to do my double coupon shopping. My Kmart in Lawton Oklahoma had just posted signs that they were only accepting coupons up to $1. They would only double coupons up to $1. I was so disappointed, especially since they just taped the signs to the registers and doors AFTER I already had done my shopping and a loaded cart full of items. Has anyone else come across this?
That is impressive, love your blog, but how in the world do you have time to do all of this? With me I love couponing, but I have to have a limit of the amount of time I devote to this.
HOLY RECEIPT BATMAN!!!!!
I was debating whether I should go participate but now I feel like I have to!
Fantastic trip!!! Mine was not that impressive, but I was super pleased with my trip this morning too. I was doing well enough with so many items free or under 50cents that I was actually wondering how I could possibly get up to $50 so I could maximize my return by also sending in for the $25 Glamour rebate. Well nothing more "Glamourous" than motor oil! Pennzoil is on a good sale price so I got a good stockpile on that to get over $50; now I can also send for the $25 gift card. Yippee!
Okay I am super duper jealous!!! I wish our Kmart did the double coupon thing!!! Look at all that loot...oh and your super duper cute with your long receipt!!! Good job!!!! (still jealous though!)
Awesome work - you must have tons of storage - love your site - send many people to check it out - keep it up, your so HIP!
Awesome! Where in the world is the Kmart you have. I have checked two in my area and they do not have double coupon days!!!
Hollie,
My Kmart is super coupon friendly. I have a great cashier too! They do let me purchase everything in one transaction.
Hey Hip2save-
That is so awesome that they let you! I just got back from a second run to mine and the gal let me do 35 coupons this time! That was nice of her. I linked your deal to my blog....www.shoppingwithcents.blogspot.com
Thanks for the motivation to shop at Kmart again!!!!!

Oh I almost wish I still lived in NC! Our Kmart isn't doing doubles this week.
I wish I had known about your blog when I did live there!! We lived in TT2 and I was so bored with Jacksonville...I hadn't started coupon-ing yet though at that point.
-D
Ashley,
Yes, I was able to use Internet Printed coupons. This is a YMMV depending upon the cashier you get. I've never had problems using Internet Printed coupons during doubles. You could always call your store prior to going and ask.
I find it quite funny that they state they won't take IP coupons... considering they have printable coupons available on Kmart.com. While walking through the store I also noticed over the loud speaker a person stating that Kmart does accept IP coupons now! I would bring that up if you have any issues trying to use them.
Wow, Collin! That is incredible! I need to look over your list and go back one day this week on my lunch break since the KMart is near my work. I went today and got 12 items for $8 OOP - ok but not wonderful like you!
Btw, my ad here said up to 75 coupons but no Internet printables?
You sure rocked it, girl! WOWZA.
WOW, way to go. I love the LONG receipt, that is awesome. I wish my Kmart was doubling! Great job!
I called my Kmart ahead of time and asked a couple of questions before I go tomorrow since it is a little drive. Firstly of course I asked if they were doubling coupons up to and including $2 and she confirmed. Then I asked her how many I could use and she said 75 per day as I asked her if the ad said there was a limit per transaction. Then I asked her if I could use Internet Printables and she said YES!! WOO HOO! I am compiling my list and getting together anything that I think will be FREE or nearly FREE...if you have any other suggestions for IP ones (since you also use them, please let me know) I'll let you know what I get once I get home, hopefully it will be as impressive as yours! Fingers crossed!!
I did get quite a few printed from the list you have on your site but if you know of any newer good ones ;) Thanks again!!
You are amazing, i too went to kmart and my total was 165.76 and after coupons my total was $27.46. I thought I did well, but you are just amazing, all tho I did have the man behind me ask for my autograph he was amazed. Love your site, thanks for all you tips, you have helped me so much, Michelle in Jersey
That was a cool haul. Haven't had one like that for ages, and now CVS down here has been a total bust. I hope my local Kmart is participating.
you rock. I soooooo wish we got doubles....
Way to go! You are so amazing with your deals and it's been such a help to my family. Thank you!! I stocked up on pull-ups and now wondering how I can get my caregivers rebate and send in the glamour deal. Have you ever had this double rebate dilemna before???
Nice shopping! Hope you left some things one the shelves for the rest of us! ;-)
Way to go! I made out good today as well. Just wish I had more coupons! I used ALOT of my internet coupons. Congrats on the savings!!
wwwwwwwwwooooooooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwww wow wow wow wow wow wow wow
Which Kmart do you go to? I go to the one off Piney Green and they had a limit of 25 coupons per customer...
Christine,
I do NOT go to the one off Piney Green. I had a really bad experience the first time I went their and have not gone back since. I go to the one on the corner of Henderson and Gum Branch. One of the cashiers there is awesome and super coupon friendly!
If you ever need a shopping buddy let me know!:)
LOL, I love the pic of you holding that receipt! It's as tall as you are! That's awesome. Great haul! :)
I'm insanely jealous! How long did that shopping trip take you? Too bad my Kmart doesn't double coupons. :(
Haha yeah a shopping buddy trip would be insane. I've only been doing this coupon thing for about a month but I love it. I made the binder with the baseball card organizer sheets haha!
I called my friend today (who introduced me to this site) when I saw you live in Jville and I said "I bet she's the one that takes all the sale items before I can get to them" LOL I'll try the henderson/gumbranch kmart thanks for the advice. I use the Gumbranch Walgreens anyway my friend is an asst manager there & I just like it better
Couple of things I found at my store:
LOreal HIP eyeshadow in a clearance basket for 3.50 each - used 2.00 coupon doubled to 4.00 = FREE
Soft Soap 1.49 - used .75 coupon doubled = FREE
Clean & Clear scrub on clearance for 3.09 - used 2.00 coupon doubled = FREE
Mitch Deodorant clearance at 1.99 - used 1.00 coupon doubled = FREE
Sure Deoderant on sale for 1.99 - used 1.00 coupon doubled = FREE
Ziploc containers (6 ct) on sale 2 for $5 - used 1.50 off 2 coupon doubled = 1.00 each
I went to my Kmart Sunday and they doubled my IP q's then today (monday) they said they are not doubling IP's??? What...Anyone run into this problem???
I saw this on another site maybe you could help back it up...
You can only double up to four like coupons per order
Is this true?
Alright, I have a quick question. I went over to my store today and they were doubling. Using the tips and ideas here, and armed with my coupons, I filled up my cart with cheap and free products. However, at the checkstand, I had some issues. They were doubling up to $2 qs, so like on the Gillette, I was able to get it for .49. However, on coupons that were, for instance, $1.50/2 (like ziplock containers), they only doubled that at $1, not $1.50. I decided the reason is since $2.50 is the price of a single container, so it doubles up to the price of one. But if so, then how do you all get them to double to the full amount? Is my store just weird? Hope that made sense :) Thanks.
Oh, and Hip 2 Save, that is AMAZING. I love the pic of you and the receipt.
Here are some good deals that I found...
* Good Life Dog Food on sale $4.99 use the $2 manuf. coupon=$0.99

Chthonox,
The coupons that are off 2 or 3 are a little more confusing to use. For example when the cashier scans the $1.50 off 2 Zipoc coupon, then she should touch 2 Ziploc products on the screen that pop up--not one! If they touch one (like you said) the coupon will only double up one more $1. However, if they touch 2 the coupon will double up an additional $1.50. I hope that makes sense.
I'm sure most cashier don't like this, but I hand over my coupons one at a time and make sure each one gets scanned correctly!:)
Meagan,
You did great! Thanks so much for posting more great deals!:)
Josie,
The Kmart ad does state you can only double up to 4 like coupons per transaction. However, more then 4 like coupons will double... so it's up to the cashier if they will let you or not.
Hip 2 Save,
That makes sense. When you say they need to touch both items, are you talking about a touch screen register? If so, ours doesn't have any, so I'm not sure if that would make a difference. Thanks for the help. :)
Thanks for the tip about handing over one at a time!! I knew it has to do with the coupons for multiple items! I have to go back and get and extra $7.72 back, but for my second ever trip, not too shabby...(I'm learning from the best. And btw you sure are getting a whole lot done with your move going one! You go girl! Such an inspiration to us all!! :D
Wow good job but I'm so jealous. Wish I had the skills to get deals like this.
Could you help me understand the super double is just that they are doubling could that are $2 so that they would be worth $4. I really want to try this but I am not understanding? Thanks for any Help!
On some of the ziploc containers they had a $1.00 peelie!! Use this and your container is only $.50!!!! The ziploc containers are on sale 2/$5.00.
I returned to Kmart today to get the $7.75 that they overcharged me and to get a few more things...(I did GREAT on the new items) but the ladies were VERY rude to me about giving me my refund. I had called Monday as soon as I got home and also took the ladies name who I spoke with to confirm) When I went in the 3 ladies tried to tell me that they did not have to select all of the items for coupons that require multiple items. I said yes I even made them a print out and breakdown so that they could not argue. Finally they called the GM and he agreed with me and told them to give me my money back. Throughout the trip one followed my friend and I through the store giving us dirty looks and another stood over my checkout cashier like a hawk and insinuated that I did something wrong the first time to cause all of the errors...UGH! Seriously!! What do they get out of being mean?!?! Needless to say I will not go back to that Kmart.
I stumbled on your blog earlier this week and am amazed. I have been doing CVS since earlier this month and thought I should try out the double q's at Kmart. Well I loved it and did awesome for my first time I think. I got $178 dollars worth of stuff for 69.03!!!! Not bad I bought a few bigger things but wanted to share some deals I found.
* Pedigree Good Bites $3.29 use $3 (Blinkie) coupon=$0.29!!! I scored big on these!
* Swiffer Wet Jet Starter Kit $17.99 use $5.00 manuf. coupon= 12.99
These coupons didn't double but were great buys. I had been wanting a wet jet for some time and found the best time to use my coupon. Thanks so much you save our family lots of money and help me tremendously!

THANK YOU FOR SUCH A GREAT POST!!!!!!! xoxoxox
that is SO SO amazing! Way to go, you're such an inspiration!!!
I went to kmart earlier and checked thier clearnace rack again and they have added wheat thins, gatorade and poppycock popcorn to name a few at ours! you might check your clearance again at your store, in case they've added more. I've been looking for coupons for all of those items too, but havne't found any yet- anyone else know of any for the items I listed, by chance?
thanks again for your awesome blog ! I love it!
I was about $6 short of reaching $50. If more stuff was in stock, I would have reached it. I didn't even think I'd reach that amount or be even close so, I didn't bother adding up what it might be at the register. Otherwise, I could have gotten the extra $5 off w/email. And also earned the extra gift card w/rebate. My bad.
I am excited to share how well the rest went. I did the GM cereal...2 boxes each, 2.99 for Honey Nut Chexs (for my hubby/children are not allowed to eat it, LOL), had 2 coupons/75cents off each. Then 2 boxes of Cheerios, 4 boxes of Golden Grahams & 2 Cinnamon Crunch...those each $2.
I used 2 coupons/$1 off 3 boxes. Then used two/50 cents off Cherrios. I paid $12.98 for 10 boxes of cereal. I spent over $20 & earned the $5 reward from GM to use another time at Kmart. It gets even better, I picked up the specially marked boxes of The Golden Grahams w/chance to win a CASH (Discover) card for $25, $10 or $5. When I got home I was curious to see 'if' I had won...I found a $5 card. So, if you take the two extra $5 off that I earned...I paid $2.98 for 10 boxes of cereal (which might not last long w/our family of 8, LOL).
Thanks so much for listing the Kmart deals. You have helping me learn how to save $$$.
that was great our kmart would only let you use 25 coupons and they did not always double but i was pleased with my buy
How do you know if your Kmart participates in the double coupons?
i emailed kmart customer service here is the address they will email you back with the info.
