BS From HT
Yes, it seems that Harris Teeter is cracking down on their coupon policy. I experienced it for myself on Monday. They have always had a per customer/per day policy on doubling 20 coupons, but they have always allowed me to use my daughter's or father's or SIL's phone number in a separate transaction. Don't go haywire on me. I am not one of those that clear the shelves of anything. Unless you want to count that I got the last three boxes of Betty Crocker potatoes as clearing the shelf. Hey, someone has to do it.
On the first day of Super Doubles, I did the GM deal one time and the Pillsbury deal one time on my card at the self-checkout. I then put those things in the car and went back in the store for just a few items. I have found it is just easier for me to do it that way sometimes. I must have attracted attention to myself. No, I had not reached my limit of 20 coupons on my VIC card. At this point who really cares what I am going to purchase or for whom? I have the answer to that question! There is a certain someone at a particular HT that wants to make it her business what I am doing. I got in line at a register to check out. My first transaction was for three items...one Simply OJ and two of the new Philadelphia cream cheeses. I didn't clear the shelf on those either. As a matter of fact, I could have purchased two more and they would have been free just like the first two, but alas I didn't. Here comes MS. KNOW IT ALL over to the register and is asking loudly how many times I have checked out at this register. Well, at that point it was once for the above mentioned three items. I had two more transactions to do. The cashier even told her that I shop for other people. There was no mention of not being able to use other people's VIC cards at that time. I purchased 13 items in one transaction and nine in the other one. I used 19 coupons total. Of the 13 items, five were the Old Orchard juice...22 items total. I spent $20.10 total. No problems other than THE LOUD MOUTH. Really, why does she care? I know she is just getting ready to enforce the rules for the next time she sees me at HT.
Fast forward to Monday...Ms. Pinch and I had planned a trip to our favorite HT to see what we may have missed from last week. We are shopping and everything is going well. I/we should have known that something would happen. Maybe I shouldn't include her in my problem. She had purchased her items and ran over to Walgreens while I finished up in the store. I was doing the GM deal again and the Pillsbury deal and purchasing some other items. I had 17 coupons for those two deals. Let's go to the register to check out...oh no, big problems. Not at the beginning mind you, but you will see. Keep in mind I had been in this store one time during Super Doubles. This is now five days later. I shopped at another HT on Friday with my father for just a few items.
I am at the register and tell the nice cashier I have three transactions. He rings up the first one which is the GM deal. I pay $10.92 and he (the cashier) says let's keep the coupons laying right here in case there is a problem. BIG RED FLAG, I should have known something was up. Oh, by the way, MS. KNOW IT ALL is there also! We proceed to ring up my second transaction...the Pillsbury deal. I pay $13.77 and I had other things with both of these transactions to get to my 20 coupon limit for my card. The cashier keeps those coupons in another stack right beside the ones from the first transaction, just in case there is a problem again! Really that is what he said. He also asked both times if were we using the same VIC card. The answer was yes. We get to the point where we are done and I have paid just like I said above for two transactions. TROUBLE ALERT now in full mode! I tell him I will be using a different number as these next items are for my daughter. Really, again, does it matter who they are for? He tells me I can't use her card if she isn't with me...it is corporate policy. I told him to show it to me. MS. KNOW IT ALL is lurking around the whole time but never comes near the register where I am. He shows me the policy that said "limit 20 coupons per customer/per day" to me that doesn't say my daughter has to be with me. She is another customer that happens to be at work and I happen to be getting whatever I am getting for whoever I am getting it for. She doesn't live with me and has a different address than me. Okay, now let's call the manager up to the register. He isn't going to let me purchase anything else with anyone else's VIC card. I told him he could even call her at work. But NOOOOeVIC coupons back to my card also. Lo and behold, they just can't do that. Okay, call Mr. Manager again...NO he just calls up to the customer service desk and tells the cashier to call the help desk. Well they can't put my 20 coupons back on my card either. Interesting...the longer I stood there the more I thought I will make money because they should refund the price of the items minus the VIC sales, of course. I didn't intend on making money off of HT, don't get me wrong but that is the way it works. It is not my fault that they choose to start enforcing rules all of a sudden. Mr. Manager has to be called again, the cashier just doesn't know what to do. A customer service rep comes out of the office and she said why don't we just ring up the items that she wants and be done with it...using my daughter's card. No Chit Sherlock! What they could have done in the first place and none of this would be happening. I have no problem with rules just a problem when they aren't enforced and all of a sudden they are. I feel that I was profiled by MS. BIG MOUTH from the time I went in the store. Why else would the cashier have just left my coupons to the side in case there was a problem? Not once but twice, remember that! They were just waiting for me to do what I have always done. I am not caught, don't even think that. This is something that I have always done as other people also do.
Okay, back to the finish. The manager is at customer service and I tell him he has my coupons that the store will be reimbursed for so he needs to refund my money which will be the price of the item. He tells me he can't do that. He will refund what I paid cause he will not pay me to shop in that store. Not my problem. For example, if a can of biscuits cost $2 minus a 50¢ coupon doubled to $1.00 then you pay $1.00 for the biscuits. If you decide to bring the biscuits back for whatever reason, then the store should refund your $2 what the biscuits cost. Remember they have the coupon, they will be paid 50¢ plus the handling fee. It is Harris Teeter's fault if they lose money, not mine. He also told me they lose money every time there is a Super Doubles. Again, not my problem, you deal with it Mister. I told him the coupons were just like money, but he said they aren't because he can't deposit them in his checking account. Again, not my problem. Did I feel like I was a criminal? Not at all, I didn't reach across and take money from them and wouldn't. Mr. Manager & I exchanged more conversation. He decided he would refund what I paid and the amount of each coupon.
After coming home, I called corporate and of course HT is enforcing their own coupon policy now. You may or may not be able to shop like you are use to doing with other people's VIC cards at your HT. Supposedly HT is cracking down on their own policy. Oh, I even told Mr. Manager that maybe to benefit himself he should print up a statement and post it to the doors that they were enforcing their policy of 20 coupons per customer during Super Doubles. The really funny thing that Mr. Manager also told me was to make multiple trips in one day to the same store when there are different cashiers working and they wouldn't know I had already been there. Like I didn't know that already. Why enforce your rule and tell a customer how to get around it? OMG I am not that dumb!
Just for giggles the first lady at corporate that I talked to had a really bad attitude. She hung up on me! But that was okay also. It was after I just had to call her a not-so-nice name. I have no problem with HT enforcing their rules but just let me know in a polite way, like at the beginning of my transaction. I was set up (by Ms. Loud Mouth) and if it made someone's day, more power to them! I believe the cashier was in on it too. Why else would he have set my coupons aside in case there was a problem? He knew there was going to be a problem ahead of time. I was the one that didn't know.
The second lady at corporate was very nice. She told me they have had people with as many as 20 VIC cards in one name. She also said Harris Teeter loses money every time they have Super Doubles. Wonder how much longer that will last? If their deals aren't deals anymore for us coupon shoppers, then who will shop there? Are they going to start checking your license when you go in the store?
I can play the game well, but not when the rules get changed in the middle.
My rant is over and I would love to hear comments!

What Will A Buck Get You?
And I'm not talking about the four-legged ones with Antlers either. A buck at Harris Teeter will get you this!!
The Pampers were part of my eVIC for $5.99 with a limit of two. I forgot that I had to purchase two in one transaction probably due to the fact of my excitement over my negative balance on the Pillsbury items. I knew my amount due would be low but not negative $3 and something. That happened because some of my electronic coupons were taken off more than once. I have no clue why and didn't know until I got home.

Harris Teeter Shock And Awe
I love Super Doubles at Harris Teeter. After two days of shopping, I am in shock that I took home $369.34 in groceries. I am in awe that I saved $276.40. I got lots of freebies along with some not-so-free things like dog food, beef stew, pork ribs, roast, coffee and eggs.
Some of the highlights:
The 2L drinks are $1.89 each...so you will spend $3.78 for five drinks. I had a 35¢ Q for Dr. Pepper and a $1 Q WYB a 2L drink and two assorted products. I bought two A1 Sauces...I had two $1 Qs for those. To make this long story short, I bought five drinks and two A1 Sauces for $3.06!
General Mills Deal - Save $6 instantly WYB 20 participating products. This is a moneymaker when you have the Qs plus the eVIC loadable Qs. The $6 DID NOT come off automatically and the manager had to wave her magic wand. Be sure to check your receipt. And some of the eVIC Qs also did not work. You should print your list and take it with you so you can get your money back.
Pillsbury - Save $4 instantly WYB 10 participating products. Again, this is a moneymaker...if your eVIC Qs work. As with the GM deal, most of these products may be out of stock.
There is a $2 Q on any Vaseline product, making the lotion 38¢. Can you believe this stuff is regularly $6.99?
I want to give a big thank you to a fellow couponer that gave me a couple of coupons for cereal that she didn't need. Her cereal coupons were better than the ones I had. That was a very nice gesture from one coupon shopper to another coupon shopper.
Then there is this shopper...I was at the clearance basket looking at the lotion. I noticed this woman putting the Vaseline lotion on her hands. After she used the lotion, she put it back and got another lotion to put in her cart. How rude! This is probably the same lady that eats the grapes while she shops and then stuffs the empty bag in with the frozen foods.
Anyway, in two days I have spent $92.94 (I saved $276.40). I have a refrigerator that is full, two freezers that are full, a food closet that is overflowing, one dog that is happy that she has food, and three bags of food to give to the school Food Drive tomorrow. I love Harris Teeter Super Doubles!!

"The Good, The Bad And The Ugly"
The Good: Buy 11 select HT items...you pay for 10 and get the 11th one free.
The Bad: I got 10...and only 10. Apparently I can't count to 11.
The Good: Biltmore Salad Dressing and Biltmore Marinade...both free with $1 Qs.
The Bad: These items went fast.
The Good: Coffee Mate Liquid Creamer...free with an IP Q.
The Bad: I got my Friday morning email from Harris Teeter with my eVIC deals...B1G1 Coffee Mate. If I had waited until today to buy Coffee Mate, I could have gotten TWO free.
The Good: Hunt's tomatoes...B2G1 Free ($1.39 each).
The Bad: Darn that eVIC email...Hunt's tomatoes are 79¢ each.
Now for the Ugly: I shopped at Harris Teeter on Thursday...and I was given the SENIOR CITIZEN DISCOUNT! I am NOT a senior citizen...not that I have anything against senior citizens. My mother is one. But I am not a senior citizen. It must be the hair...she must think I have gray hair. My hair is not gray...it is very, very, very light brown OR a very pale blonde. It is NOT gray. Besides that, the overhead lights in that store are really bad. Who am I kidding? My hair IS gray. I guess anyone with gray hair looks like a senior citizen to that 12-year-old cashier.
I'm off to buy hair dye. And I think I'll watch Sesame Street today...maybe I can learn how to count to 11!

Colorful Ziploc Containers At Harris Teeter
I did a few transactions Wednesday at three Harris Teeter stores for the big Super Doubles event. I got everything I went for the first time and I should have stayed home the rest of the time!
My total OOP was $57.55. Before any sales or coupons, my total would have been $275.29.
There was a really good deal on the Ziploc containers, which were put out while I was still at store #1. They were on a back-to-school display with no price but a tearpad of coupons was with them. I had the cashier scan the Ziploc containers and they were $3.49 and B1G1. WOOHOO! I was so excited and the lids are pretty colors which sucked me right in. The coupons with them were $1/2 so for $1.49 you could get two sets. The excitement had me so I didn't even look in my coupon binder to see if I had any coupons in there for them until I got home. That is okay...I had two Qs for $1.50/2 so I had to go back and get more. With the $1.50, two Ziploc containers are 49¢.
There are no pictures of my other great deals but among them I got several of the Electrasol dishwasher detergents, 10 Old Orchard juices, Campbell's soups, Hunt's puddings, Lysol wipes, Manwich, some Glade candles (marked down to $1.88), some Airwick (marked down to $1.99), Quaker oatmeal, mustard, hot sauce, Smuckers waffles (used the Penguin Qs), butter, some TGIF and pepper. And the list goes on.
I may go back to the HT near me for some marked down dish liquid and washing machine detergent. They had buggies full of it...Gain, Tide, All, Palmolive, etc.

Flashback
Okay, you have all heard it before...sometimes life gets in the way!
As far as Super Doubles went, it was a blast. No, I didn't go every day but I didn't miss many days. Free is always good and I really can't remember what all I got. I can't find my receipts right now. The Lysol Neutra Air was one of the free items. I got Advil for free because I had a coupon from Advil for a free box. I paid 99¢ for Kleenex hand towels. I think Doritos came out to being 99¢ per bag. I paid 49¢ for the big bottle of Crisco oil. Glade aerosol in Christmas scents was $2.50 per can. I bought three cans with a $3/3 coupon and whatever other ones I used, I remember it coming out to 60 some cents per can, and it smells wonderful. Bush's Grillin' Beans were free. I don't know if they are good or not but I have four cans to try out. The Martha White muffin mix was just pennies per pack. Sorry I can't do a better job and I didn't take any pictures this time either. I believe the Campbell's great for cooking soups were free also.
Can't wait to do it again!

Amazing Race
The Harris Teeter Super Doubles Event (HTSDE) has been over for more than a week and our accountant Missy Sippy, from the accounting firm of Bright & Early, has finally tabulated the totals of our shopping trips.
My totals:
Shelf Price - $586.97
OOP - $53.17
90% Savings
And the winner of the HTSDE Amazing Race is...Sleeping Beauty
Shelf price - $458.35
OOP - $25.25
95% Savings
And she still has $15 in catalinas that she can spend on a future shopping trip.
I salute you, my dear friend, Sleeping Beauty. I bow down to your shopping greatness.
To my loyal friends and fans, the next time you see Sleeping Beauty give her the unofficial one-finger salute...just for me!

A Hard Day's Work
Whew, I'm tired...saving all of this money has gotten to me. Just kidding! Saving the money was the fun part...finding places in the freezer, fridge and cabinets was the hard part. It is done, all is good!
Harris Teeter employees were busy restocking Tuesday morning so HT had some items that I hadn't seen since last Wednesday.
My three transactions today:
Shelf price: $14.74, OOP $4.11 (got back $3 catalina)
Shelf price: $42.23, OOP 22 CENTS
Shelf price: $4.99, OOP 52 CENTS
Total shelf price = $61.96
Total OOP = $4.85 - $3 catalina that I still have to spend = $1.85 for $61.96 worth of groceries!
Not a bad days work!

Still Not Finished
During my previous trips to Harris Teeter, I didn't get all of my eVIC specials. Oh no! I had to go back yet again just to see what I could find. I did have a plan and it worked on the Kraft cheese. There was plenty of cheese in stock. Who had time to look at cheese before?
Shelf price: $53.89
After Qs, sales, and eVIC, my OOP was 50 CENTS!
Gotta love it!

Simply Amazing
Here you have it, another good visit to HT. What can I say that you don't know already. Just simply AMAZING.
This is the run down:
Shelf price $70.89
Total OOP $6.20
I got back $3 and $1 in catalinas.
$6.20 - $4.00 = $2.20 for $70 worth of groceries!
