The reason?
I had a handful of OYNO Cats to spend from buying lots of Unilever items during the Double Coupons Event a couple of weeks ago. They were all expiring this week.
Can't let MONEY expire now, can we?
The crazy rules at KMart however are that you can ONLY use ONE OYNO Catalina per Transaction. So, I had to group items into Eight Transactions, as I had 8 Cats of various values.
KMart also makes you pay the Sales Tax on the full value of the items you purchase, even if your coupons bring that purchase cost down to Zero, so unless you just buy food or clothing at KMart in PA, you are going to pay sales tax.
I shopped the clearance and sale items to maximize savings and here's what I got for almost free......
2 packages of Joe Boxer Socks-only 1 pictured. #2 son needed socks. Socks were on sale. $3.50 ea.=$7.005 bottles of Elmer's Glue .20¢ ea.=$1.00
1 Mandoline Slicer on clearance $10.00
1 Purse on clearance $12.00
Towels for #1 son for college. Something he needed and they were on clearance. #2 son picked out this 'manly' color-black!lol 2 Bath Sheets/1 Face Towel/2 Washcloths=$23.00
1 box of Canning lids=$2.49 The only NOT ON SALE purchase. I'll be needing these very soon.
SubTotal $55.49
Tax $2.91
Total $58.40
Subtract $53 in OYNO Catalinas (3x $14, 3x $3, 2x $1)
Grand Total $5.40OOP ($2.91 of that was tax)
