This month's double coupon event was not as great as some of my past adventures. Some of my deals did not work out as planned and I spent more out of pocket than I wanted to.

Subtotal before coupons = $147.17
Total paid out of pocket = $27.70
Earned $5 catalina & 3 free movie tickets
All in all, with the movie tickets at $9 these days, I consider this a wash... maybe even profitable!
Here are my notes from my 4 seperate transactions...
Problem #1 - I found an online deal on batteries that ended up not working out. With the deal, the batteries were supposed to be 29 cents each (after catalina). They ended up being $1 each - still not a bad deal.
Problem #2 - The Lindsay/Main Kmart was enforcing the 10 coupon limit, but the Power/Southern Kmart was not. I had to rework some scenarios on the fly which made for some higher out of pocket totals.
Problem #3 - Some crazy coupon lady kiped all the Ponds face wipes from both Mesa locations within 24 hours of the coupon event starting! I was at Kmart when they opened on Monday and they were both cleaned out of Ponds. Oh well, I can't fault a fellow couponer for scoring a good deal. Especially, when I got 9 Ponds packages last month. But I will say that I never cleaned out a shelf. I went to 3 different Kmarts so there were enough for all of us crazy coupon ladies! I'm just jealous. :)
High Points - I earned 3 movie tickets and $5 in catalina savings!
