Quick Trip for Bread Flour at Harris Teeter

I went to the store armed with my rain check on flour (and a four year old helper).  I needed bread flour and my rain check let me get two at $1.97.  It was also on sale for $2.99 so I was thinking about grabbing a few extra because under $3 is a good price on bread flour but I hesitated and only got the two on the rain check.  I might have to go back to get two more before the sale is over.

I saw some evic specials in my e-mail so I decided that I would pick them up too.  There was a Hamburger Helper on sale for $0.77 (limit 2) but the coupon was $0.75/3 so I was trying to figure out if I would get two or three.  When I got to the store, I saw that they were $1.25 sale price.  I grabbed three because with double coupons, the third one was free.  I also had an evic coupon for $0.75/3 (which didn't come off).  After all sales and coupons, they were $0.18 each!  I think that makes a super frugal meal (plus we have a little addiction to the Philly Cheesesteak one)!!

There was also an evic special on the Organic Harris Teeter crackers normally $2.99, on sale for $1.97.  There was an evic zvr coupon for $1 that didn't come off but it was $0.97 so I figured that it was a good deal for cheese crackers.

I rang up everything with one of my favorite cashiers and none of evic zvr coupons came off :(  I don't know why that happens and if I could figure it out, I would totally stop doing whatever I am doing.  I heard that you should ring up your card before they start everything and it would work...nope.  I heard wait until the end and then scan it...nope.  I seems to be a random!!  Does anyone else have this problem?  I paid and went to customer service.  They went into the computer program on an ipad and pulled up that I really did have the coupons.  Then they gave me back $1.79 in cash which I calculated off my total below and added to my savings.  It would be nice to get everything on the receipt without having to write it all on so that I remember later but at least I got the money back and didn't have to return things!!

Total OOP $7.40- $1.79 cash back= $5.61
Total Savings $6.18 + $3.04 rain check+ $1.79 cash= $11.01
