I love this deal!


This deal at HT is awesome! Buy 10 BTFE items (they are marked with tags at the store) and you get $4 off.

I went to 6 different Harris Teeters and one of them was a secret shop too. I did 9 different orders total.

36 Pop Secret Pop Corn

6 Betty Crocker box potatoes

5 Betty Crocker brownies (lowes food coupon $2/4)

7 Betty Crocker cake mix (lowes food coupon $2/4)

10 Lucky Charms ($2/5 catalinas, plus Lowes Foods Coupon for $4/4)

24 Betty Crocker Fruit Roll Ups (Lowes foods Q for $4/6)

2 Pillsbury sweet rolls ($.35 Q)

1 gallon milk

1 snuggle ($.40 Q)

3 Johnsons bath buddies (on sale for $.64, used $1Q)

3 Edge shave cream (Trial size is free with $.75Q)

I got the milk and snuggle because they were heavy and I had to get 10lbs worth of groceries for my mystery shop-I will be paid $29.50 for this shop.

I used $81 in coupons including Lowes Food coupons and manufacturer coupons

I got $151.13 in store specials, which includes the $4/10 BTFE

I used a $5 gift card to pay for part of one order

Total out of pocket for me was $32.41

I still have $9.50 to spend at a later date.

While I was out I had to go to a few other places. I had to go to Kohls to get some shirts that have been selling really well for me and they are hard to find. I also went to Staples. I had to get a new mouse. The one I have decided it will only work from left to right. Cleaning it several times, banging it on the table and throwing it on the ground didn't help. So I used my Office Depot coupon of $5/$25 order. Of course the mouse I wanted they were out of stock. I had to get a $22.99 mouse then wander around the store for $2.01 worth of stuff to buy. I ended up getting loose leaf paper on clearance for $.50 each. I still paid less than $25 total. I then went to a few Harris Teeters swung by Lowes Foods, they had no coupons at that store. At that point I decided I would go ahead and make the trek north to go to another Lowes Foods there. There is also 2 Harris Teeters I could go to and a Bed Bath and Beyond. I did this, scored the coupons at the other Lowes Foods (yes I left some) and then went to lunch. I was starving. Lucky for me I had a McCrappies coupon, I mean McDonalds, for a free coffee drink with the purchase of a sandwich (it was almost 1pm at this point). That cost me $2.76 for a sandwich and a drink. I then went to Bed Bath and Beyond and low and behold they had the shelving unit I wanted but a little bit smaller. AND of course it was on clearance for $29.99, plus I had a 20% off coupon (I usually have 10 at any given time, they accept expired and competitors and you can use more than one in a transaction). So I got the Shelving unit that matches what I have, a batteriless flashlight (I am a sucker for a flashlight) and a cake stand all for less than $40 including tax.
