  1. I went to Copps today and did the Kellogg cereal deal... $1.99 WYB 5, had 2 coupons for $1.00 each that were doubled and so I got 5 boxes of cereal for $6.00. I bought a gift card to make my purchase over $25- a BRILLIANT idea that I never would've thought of on my own. Thanks for your suggestions... and coupon database!

  4. Great job, Lori! That's fantastic!

    I'm looking forward to another DOUBLE-Double next Saturday, too! Wow!

    I'm really starting to get used to this doubling 10 coupons at a time thing! I don't think I'm going to want to go back to doubling just 5 at a time! ;-)
