I will give more details later but had to share I saved $31 in coupons shopping today. WOOHOO

I really appreciate the tip about the Back to Nature Mac & Cheese boxes for $1 with the $1/1 Whole Deals coupon we are stocked up for a year. LOL Now, I just hope the family likes them. If not, the food pantry will be so happy with my donation.

More later...

Great job! A tip about the mac and cheese, I usually use a little bit less milk than they call for otherwise the mixture is a little runny. Plus you can always whisk in more if you need to.

Did they let you use more than one of each WF coupons in the same transaction?? I tried to use 3 of 3 different coupons there a couple weeks ago, and they all beeped after the 1st one. The cashier was a younging, and the front-end manager said "she'd do it for me this time." I wasn't in the mood to persuade her into understanding coupon lingo at the time. Ever since they switched to WF coupons in the booklets, I've had more problems using more than one...although I haven't gone very often, as WF is really too far to drive for me.

so wait you got those for FREE!!! That sale just reached Florida for some reason, so off to Whole Foods I go tomorrow to stock up myself. I hope it's good.

Yep, I sure did. The cashier said you can't use more than one coupon and I disagreed. She called a supervisor, who said sure you can. He had to key in each coupon though. The cashier kept saying are you sure got that many. I said, yes, you can get them out of the bag and count them if you want. The super said no, that is not necessary. I kept thinking didn't you(to the cashier) just scan all those boxes?

The sale was 5 for $5 so they clearly wanted me to buy more than 1...right
