I normally am not much of a couponer (I shop at Aldi and think that I get great prices without having to coupon), but when I heard that Harris Teeter was doing a Triple Couponing Event this week (and I was already going into town), I just had to get on board!
The event is May 18-24, so if you haven’t gone yet and want to, here are some sites to check for coupon matchups and all the deals:
–Southern Savers
–Homemaking Mom
–The Coupon Challenge
–Coupon Teacher
–The Deal Scoop
Hope those links are helpful for you! I don’t get the paper, so I relied exclusively on printable coupons (the sites I mentioned above so nicely link up the coupons for you!).
I went to two different Harris Teeters, since the first one was sold-out of several items I really wanted.
At my first stop (pictured above), I spent $4.47, and my coupons totalled $23.96. So, I got almost $30 worth of groceries for under $5. At this stop, I got several items for FREE, including two boxes of family size tea bags, a box of instant coffee singles, and a bottle of garlic powder. I was also excited about the deals I got on coffee creamer ($.22!), salsa ($.50!), and almond milk ($.24!). I think I messed up somewhere and didn’t get as good of a deal on the salad dressing as I was expecting, but it was still less than what I normally pay!
At my second stop (pictured above), I spent $1.86, and used $20.55 in coupons. I was really happy to see the total come in below $2! This trip, I also got some FREE items, including two Greek yogurts, a bottle of honey mustard dipping sauce, a bottle of Worcestershire sauce, two bottles of hot sauce, a bag of shredded cheese, a flavored cottage cheese, a four-pack of cottage cheese. The rice was $.14 and the strawberries were marked down to $.69.
For my first experience triple couponing, I think I did pretty well!
What about you? Have you been to Harris Teeter this week or are you planning on going?
when i couponed a while back and did triples and doubles, I always had to go on the day after stocking. So if they stocked on fri night, id go super SUPER early on sat morning. Kelly Busch knows the stocking schedule, I forget the exact days.. but otherwise you wont find a lot of the really good sales.. all the die hard coupon ladies are there at the store opening.
Its fun tho and exciting when you go and only spend a few bucks!
And I see you got my fav dressing!!
o and owen loves greek yogurt
Terrific savings! You got some food I love like the almond milk and greek Yogurt…Yummm I have just a few coupons so I might run to my Harris Teeter store which is just around my neighborhood.
We don’t have that store anywhere around here : ( Looks like you got some AMAZING deals though!! Nice job!
Oh how I wish we had Harris Teeter here in AL! You did a great job!!
Good job! I love your site- very pretty! Thanks for stopping by today!
I think for your first triples, that was amazing! I forgot about the deal I got on the almond milk until I saw your list – it was nice! I buy it all the time. Love the Athenos yogurt FREE too! Fun – check out my Teeter run!
