I used to coupon like crazy but got burned out. I knew with a new baby coming I needed to get in gear, but was a bit overwhelmed. Today, on a "whim", I remembered your deals at Wal-greens. I still had the ad in the recycling pile, got the online coupons you posted, found ones in ads I'd been saving (but not going thorough regularly) and we now have a decent pile of diapers and pads for the baby and me for the first few weeks. Thank you for putting your work online to help me get going again! Thank you so much for posting this plus your links to the on-line coupons. I used to coupon like crazy but got burned out.

I agree that that is not fair. @Michelle L.,

Thanks Michelle…I wasn’t aware that there was a minimum. I agree that that is not fair.

Thu, 12 Nov 2009 00:58:25 +0000 http://www.5dollardinners.com/?p=4772#comment-31681 Erin, I just thought I'd let you know that I contacted Kroger regarding the "best customer coupons" to which you frequently refer. I was told that you must spend a minimum of $200 per month to receive these coupons. That seems ridiculous to me. I feel like I'm being punished for not being a huge monthly spender. I do shop at Kroger and I buy several Kroger brand items on a weekly basis (such as yogurt, buns, and peanut butter), but that's not good enough for a coupon here and there. Anyway, I thought this might clarify things for people who are wondering why they aren't receiving the coupons. Erin,

You can use all 3 coupons for the 3 tuna packs. And yes, sometimes there are "limits", but you can do multiple transactions while in the store. No need to walk out the doors and walk back in! @Kimberly,

When I have multiple coupons for multiple selections of that item, eg. 3 tuna coupons for 3 tuna packs... how can I maximize my savings? Do I need to do them in individual purchases... can I do that without going to the car and going back in. Thanks - working mother of two very active boys!(2.5 and 4 months) PS: I love your site.

(There is no Kroger in my vicinity these days) I had to laugh because during my last pregnancy the employees at my local Kroger insisted upon unloading my cart and helping me to my car. I'm enjoying your budget friendly meals. Keep up the great work! Oh how I miss my Kroger and those cost cutter savings!
