Kmart Super Doubles Week - Best Deals!


Kmart Super Doubles Week starts Sunday (4/4). They're making it a little difficult this time around, but there are still some great deals to be had if it's worth it to you!

Some information you need to know:
  • Limit of 5 coupons per customer per day.
  • You must have a Shop Your Way rewards card.
  • Manufacturer Coupons up to $2 face value are doubled.
  • If the price of an item is less than the doubled coupon value, the coupon will be price-adjusted down. There is no overage.
  • A list of stores participating can be found HERE.
  • Printable coupons are supposed to be valid, but you never know - some stores might give you troubles about this. Just be prepared. (Or maybe call ahead of time at your store to check).
Prices will probably differ quite a bit from store to store. This gives you a general idea of some deals to look for, though.

Kmart Coupon Problems...


Well guys, I have some bad news...

It seems that the Kmart coupon that I posted yesterday might be fraudulent...

Basically, people who have tried using this coupon at Kmart have run into problems. Managers have given the following explanations for why they can not take this coupon:

1. It is fraudulent and was never meant to be posted (then why was it posted on the K-mart website?! Seems totally legit to me!)

2. It is only valid in specific locations (why does it say on the coupon valid at all locations then?)

3. It is only valid for those people who received it by e-mail.

I'm not really sure what the deal is with the coupon, but I'm going to go ahead and say that the Kmart coupon is a dead deal.

I try my best to never post fraudulent deals. There are many deals that I don't post for that very reason. If I'm the slightest bit skeptical, I don't post it. This seemed totally legit, though, because it was posted on the Kmart website, had an expiration date, a bar code...everything checked out perfectly! Some people even called corporate and they said it was legitimate in the beginning. Weird! Regardless, I apologize for the misinformation.

Just to be on the safe side, and to be ethical, I'm going to say you probably shouldn't try using this coupon at any store since it has been labeled as fraudulent by Kmart corporate now. They have e-mailed all stores and told them not to take it.

Honestly, I think they just decided that it was too awesome of a coupon for so many people to get a hold of. They definitely have the right to pull it, but stores should think about all of the blogs and forums out there before they post such an amazing coupon...only to then tell us it is fraudulent!

That's my rant for the day. =) Sorry for the let down!

Kmart Throws A Curve Ball Our Way...


Wow. Kmart sure isn't making this Super Doubles thing easy this time around...

Apparently some more information has become available about the Super Doubles week (April 4th - 10th). In order to participate, you will have to already have a "Shop Your Way" Rewards Card. The limit of 5 coupons per day will be tied to the card.

So if you're still interested in getting in the on the Super Doubles action, you might want to head over here and sign up for a Rewards Card. You will receive a temporary printable card, and then be mailed a permanent card. I've heard it takes a while to process the card (72 hours), so I would not wait until the last minute to do this!

I'm starting to think I might not be participating. Just seems like too much trouble to be worth it...

What About You: Are you still going to try it? If so, check out this list of ideas for printable coupons that might make for good deals.

Thanks for this helpful info, For The Mommas!

Kmart Super Doubles -- Coupons Worth Printing!


So have you decided to try out Kmart Super Doubles week? I honestly haven't decided yet, just because the limit is only 5 coupons, but we'll see!

One reader asked me if they will be taking printable coupons. They should be, and they always have in the past at my store. Just to be safe, though, call your local store and make sure that they will be doubling printable coupons during their Super Doubles Week!

If they are taking printable coupons, here are some ideas of coupons you might want to go ahead and print that will probably make for GREAT deals:

$2/2 Right Guard Deodorant
$1.50/1 Soft Scrub
$1/1 Dial Soap
$1/1 Johnson Baby Product
$1/1 Del Monte Fruit Chillers
$1/1 Wheat Thins
$1/1 Kellogg's Fruit Snacks

Thanks for some of this info, Common Sense With Money!

Kmart Super Doubles - Coming To A Store Near You!!!


I have some awesome news!!! Kmart Super Doubles is coming...the week of April 4th - 10th. They used to do these Super Doubles weeks all the time. Then, we started getting rumors of the Super Doubles week disappearing. They never got rid of them entirely, but they did start laying down some pretty strict rules on how many coupons you could double, etc.

I'm not complaining, though! I never shop at Kmart, but you better believe I hit up Kmart during Super Doubles week! See that picture above? That's what I got last time I shopped Super Doubles week. It cost me about $5 total. Yeah, amazing, I know!

First thing you should do -- Make sure you store is participating by checking the list here. It was really difficult to sift through since it's 30 pages long. I found it easiest to look by state, and then for my specific store. It's not in alphabetical order, unfortunately. It seems like most Jacksonville stores are participating, but I couldn't find St. Augustine on the list (Maybe you can find it. I didn't look for very long).

Next thing you should do -- Read the following rules carefully to understand how it works:
  • Manufacturer coupons up to $2 face value will be doubled (i.e. $2 will become $4).
  • It does not include any store coupons. This is only manufacturer coupons.
  • Limit of 5 coupons per customer per day. <---That's the bummer part of it!
Last time I went, it was only a limit of 10 coupons per transaction. I was able to buy 10 items, take them to my car, and come back in to get 10 more! The manager was totally cool with it.

As more information becomes available in the coupon forums, I hope to be able to post some of the freebie deals for this event!

What About You: Think you'll be attending Super Doubles Week?

Thanks, Common Sense With Money!
