There is a long list of store policies listed here, sorry but it's too long to list. I would highly recommend looking for your State and going from there to get the most accurate policies to your stores.

First on my list of the day was Kmart. I was there the other day and saw some Scotch pop-up tapes on clearance for $0.49 each. I remembered seeing a $0.75/1 printable coupon out there so immediately came home to print them, but wasn't able to go back to the store that day. So today I stopped there first. This is how I did:
3 rolls of Scotch Tape (clearanced to $1 each)
19 Scotch pop-up tapes (clearanced to $0.49 each)
-1 $1.50/3 rolls of Scotch tape Q
-12 $0.75/1 Scotch pop-up tape Q's
Subtotal: $10.81 before coupons
Total after coupons and tax: $2.88 (tax was $1.05)
They couldn't figure out how to mark the pop-up tape coupons down so instead they took them at face value and got as close to the amount as possible without going over. Plus, I got a $3 off any purchase coupon for scanning my K'ching card (their new rewards card) so a MM!!!! If anyone knows of any coupons on the Scotch pop-up tape refills, let me know as they were clearanced to $0.59 each. Also, the Scotch contour tape was clearanced for $0.64, I'd love if someone knew about some coupons on these too *hint hint*
Next on my list for the day was Walgreens. I had well over $250 in RR's to spend because of the Bayer contour meters deal this month, and they expired today so I had to use them up. I didn't buy a lot of deals, but instead spent it on things we usually don't get with coupons. Here's how I did:
1 Kodak Digital Camera $99.99
5 Tuf Paper Towels $0.89 each (on sale with in-ad Q for $0.59 each)
2 Slim Jim $1.39 each (hubby came, and so did the kids)
1 Plastic Food Storage Containers 20 pack $5.00
1 6 pack of raisins $1.00
3 York Peppermint patties $0.69 each (on sale for 3/$2.00)
6 Kraft Mac n Cheese crackers $0.59 each (on sale for 2/$1.00)
2 Walgreens paper plates $1.79 each (on sale 2/$3.00)
1 Andes Mints (my favorite!!!) $2.29
10 Ramen Noodle Soup (great fillers!) $0.29 each (on sale for 4/$1.00, 2 rang up $0.29)
1 Cake Pan $6.49
1 Party cups $1.99
2 Kodak Disposable Cameras $7.99 (on sale for $4.99)
2 Neosporin 0.5 oz $5.99 each (gave $4.00 RR)
2 Crystal Light $2.99 (on sale 2/$5.00)
2 Cars for the kids $0.69 each (on sale 2/$1.00)
1 Hawaiian Tropic 50 SPF (we're very fair) $10.99
1 Graphic T-shirt for hubby $7.99 (I don't know why he wanted this)
1 Headphones $7.99
1 Tote bag $5.00
4 Charmin 12 packs clearanced to $5.89
1 Plastic silverware $2.00
5 packs of Pepsi $3.00 (on sale for 5/$12.00 with in-ad Q)
-49 $5 RR's from Bayer deal
-2 $1 Charmin Q's
-2 $1 Neosporin Q's
-1 $2.00 Hawaiian Tropic Q
Subtotal: $292.07 before coupons and sales
Total after coupons and tax: $21.59 ($19.04 was tax) and rec'd a $4 RR for the Neosporin
Some of the items are for trains/exchanges and some are for Jayden's birthday party in 3 weeks.
Next on my list is a local grocery store called Jubilee. This week Duncan Hines brownie mixes are on sale for $0.79 each.
11 boxes of Duncan Hines Brownies $0.79 each
-11 $0.35/1 Duncan Hines Brownies (doubled to $0.70)
Subtotal: $8.69 before coupons
Total after coupons and tax (well in this case no tax): $0.99!!!
So, all in all, I spent $25.46 OOP and saved $464.23 today, plus I have $3 towards Kmart and $4 towards Walgreens! I'll be making some of those $0.09 brownies in the pan that I bought at Walgreens in a few minutes and then relaxing!

So I went to 2 different locations and I'm sooo glad I did! I originally went into the stores looking for the 6 pk. of Aquafina Flavorsplash that is on sale for $2 this weekend and came out with 119 items for less than $94!!!
Between the 2 stores I got:
32 6-packs of Aquafina Flavorsplash $3.79 originally
79 cans of Juicy Juice on clearance $2.45 originally
5 packages of Halls cough drops $1.49 originally
1 Marcal 24 pk. toilet paper $7.99 originally
2 Marcal Tissues $1.79 originally
=$333.85
-$57.28 sale on Aquafina
-$96.38 clearance Juicy Juice
-$2.99 sale Marcal toilet paper
-$1.58 sale Marcal tissues
=$175.62
-32 $1/1 Aquafina Flavorsplash (Thanks Moonflower, Kayline, and momto3ms!!)
-39 $1/2 Juicy Juice
-5 $0.75/1 Halls (doubled to FREE)
-1 $2.00/1 Marcal 6 pk. or larger toilet paper
-2 $1/1 Marcal tissues (FREE)
=$93.17!!!
Total spent: $93.17
Total saved: $240.68
I kind of want to see if any other locations have more clearance Juicy Juice, but I'm sure my hubby would kill me. So, heads up for everyone: the canned Juicy Juice will be officially gone from all stores soon, they are going to the more eco-friendly plastic bottle.

I was there when Kmart opened and they were out of a lot of items. And also, a few things that I planned on getting were higher priced than what they were mentioned on here. I didn't realize I had enough stuff for 5 transactions, and I only printed 4 $5/$50 so I could've used that too, but all in all I did pretty good. I know the H & S was almost 1/2 of my total too ($21 worth) but $1.50 each is a good price and my hubby uses it like there's no tomorrow. I'm hoping to go back on Friday as I still have tons of Q's (that's what I did last doubles and they were restocking) so hopefully my savings will be higher.
Total Spent: $73.65 (and have $1 RR and $4 ECBs to spend in the future)
Total Saved: $769.56, about 91%!
I didn't take pictures because I put most of it away before I thought about it.
The sad thing is, I thought I'd be all shopped out, but I'm still on a high from Kmart and Rite Aid!!
