Can someone tell me what super doubles are? Is it better than triples?:confused:

The Aquafresh toothpaste and the toothbrush is free with the coupon as well as 4 packs of yogurt (I forgot what brand). They will only double the dollar coupons to 2, not the 1.50 like GE used to. Also I went to the kroger web site and put the coupons on my card and was then able to use another coupon on top of that. I don't think that's how it's supposed to work but hey 2 Bottles of Herbal Essences for 2 dollars was ok with me.

Super doubles are when coupons up to $1 are doubled up to $2. Kroger limits to 2 coupons for the same product per trip-in other words I could use 2 $1 off of Quacker Simple Harvest oatmeal that was on sale for $2.99 each, so used 2 $1 off of one oatmeal(2) for $5.98-$4.00 (2 $1 coupons Super doubled) = $1.98 for 2 oatmeals per trip.

I purchased $115 worth of groceries for $17.67 over 2 trips.
Examples: Cat treats were free-coupons for pounce, friskies were doubled, Hungry Jack potatoes were 9 cents each-coupon $1 off of 2 was doubled,fiberone one yougert was free, promise active yougert was 50 cents, Bisquick 40oz was on sale for $2.79-so 79 cents, Mission tortillas were $1.99, so free after coupon that expires 04/30, Nestles Treasures -you could get the single large bar or the 4oz package free, Quacker Breakfast Cookies and Muffins were $1.19 after coupon, Windex was free(printable coupon from the Clean Home Journal newsletter or last weeks ads) I also bought Old English Lemon oil, Tyson pre-cooked chicken, Kraft Live cheese(on clearance so was .39) doubling $ and other items.

PLUS!!!! at Kroger's if you spend $150 you receive 10 cents off per gallon the next month (there is a greater amount if you spend more-I'm single and sales shop at Meijer,Giant Eagle, CVS, Target as well as Kroger so rarely make the $150) Between the $5 off of 10 items promotion earlier this month and this promotion -I am over the $150 BECAUSE Kroger counts COUPONS and the doubled value as $$$$$ spent toward groceries unlike Giant Eagle. In other words I spent $17.67 oop, and had $77+ in coupon value after being doubled-so $95 was credited toward my total points for gas credit. (The other $20 of the $115 was the Kroger sales price vs regular price-using the Quacker oatmeal example-regular price $4.39 each-sale price $2.99-so $6 was credited for the 2 oatmeals after coupons-total saving was $6.80)GREAT SHOPPING!!!

Actually, this varies from area to area. Here in the Atlanta area you get 10 cents off per gallon on 1 fill-up if you spend $100 in the previous month, and if you spend $200 you'd get 10 cents off for 2 fill-ups (that's as much as I've ever gotten, so I'm not sure if there's a limit). Also, if you spend less than $100, you still get a smaller discount on gas the next month - for example, if you spent $30 you'd get 3 cents off. It's somewhat complicated, but their regular gas prices are comparable to everyone else and they're close to my house, so I just always fill up at Kroger anyway.
