Meijer Run 4/9 - my money making trip!


I had a few great coupons that paired nicely with the Meijer 10 for 10 sale this week so I wanted to take advantage of it. We really don't need hamburger helper (still have 8 boxes from a Giant Eagle sale last year), but it is a money maker this week, and something that is nice to have for when I need a quick meal. No one in my family likes it but myself so boxes of it last forever in our house. I had a $1.50 off a $15 purchase coupon, so I used the Glade as fillers because I was a little short of the $15. The cashier had to enter most of my coupons since they were all more than items, so I believe that is why all my Hamburger Helper coupons doubled & I received overage on it.

I am confused I totally up all your items and retail was $27.46
Then I subtracted the free items and the $1.50 which took it down to $24.96.
Then added all the coupons:
$1 off 2 snack packs
$3 for mac & cheese coupons
$5 for hanburger helper which includes the mperk
$1.98 for the Glade
Then $2.50 for the tea
The total would be out of pocket $11.48 so I am confused on how you got out of there owing anything.

My total savings listed on my receipt is $23.22
I had $2.50 savings in Meijer Promotions
I had $5.53 in non coupon savings
& I had $15.19 in coupon savings

That's the breakdown listed on the top of my receipt. Each Mac & cheese coupon only took off $.91 (I am guessing because of the overage) but they were still free since my total ended up in the negative. I also had 2 $2.00 glade coupons, so I received $3.96 off of them (making them free)
