I was able to hand over the $5/50 first, then I gave them my $10/30 and then all my manufacturer and store coupons :D
I know many of you will not have the freebie coupons I have but I am doing this post to show a lesson. One thing I have learned in the years I have been couponing like this is to not run out and "burn" a free coupon the day or even month I get it in the mail. I HOLD those suckers for three reasons:
1. For transactions such as this one to get my total up to a $ amount to use another reward coupon(or earn one)
2. To save for bogo sales so I can get twice as many free :D
3.To save for a register reward or ECB deal to turn them into a money maker :D
For those of you that still have the Maruchan Yakisoba are still .50 so free with 10/14 SS coupons
The Milani makeup had a $2 coupon and items as low as $2.87
Don't understand my lingo? Go here.

But you missed ne a 55 cent off fiesta spec coupon from the 8/10 red plum.
You are correct that I could have used that coupon too but I know from experience the $3 beef tag is coded for the spice causing one to beep when used together and I was in a hurry so had no time for beeps :D
Great post
