Unpleasant Shopping Trip at K-Mart in Granite City, IL

I will keep you guys updated!!!

I stopped in your Granite City, IL K-Mart to pick up an inflatable wading pool for my boys.

Upon entering the store, I went straight back to the pool section and was delighted to see that a sign stating that all pools were on sale!  I looked around for a while and settled on a pool that looked like a Giraffe.  The sign beneath the pool stated that is was $22.99.

When I was checking out, I wanted to be sure that the pool rang up correctly.  I asked my young, male cashier what the pool rang up as.  He told me that it rang up for $43.50.  I told him that price was incorrect.  I told him about the sign and all of the sale tags.  He walked over and asked another cashier and said that no my pool was not $22.99.

I was pretty frustrated because I had seen the sign.  I asked him if it wasn’t $22.99, then how much should it be.  He said the sale price was $43.50.  At this point, I picked up the pool and showed him where it was priced.  I said look this is the original price, what is the sale price?  He told me that the sale price was $43.50 and when it was marked on sale they took off the original price tag.

He was very rude throughout the time.  Then, he promptly just walked off leaving meand a whole line full of people without any explanation.   When he returned, he came back holding a sticker.  He told me that I was wrong and so was he.   He said that the pool was on sale but for $34.50 or $35.50.  At this point I was already upset at his manner and attitude.  I told him that there were a whole stack of pools like the one that I had picked up under the $22.99 price tag and asked him if the store would honor the price because it had been misrepresented on the shelf.  He said and I quote “Ma’m, I could take a Maserati back there and park it in the $22.99 spot, but you couldn’t buy it for $22.99.”  I just kind of blinked.  I asked him if that was the type of customer service that they provided at K-Mart.  He just shook his head.   I asked to talk to a manager.

I gave her a brief run down and what had occurred.  I also told her that I did NOT appreciate being mocked by my cashier.  He asked her, “She gets it for $34.50, right?”  The manager  said no to give it to her for $22.99 and shame on you, you know better to the cashier.

The keyed the price in the system.  At this point, I was shaking I was so upset.  As he hands me the pool, he says “I hope you enjoy your pool, Ma’m!”  in the most sarcastic and rude way that I have ever heard from a cashier.

I stop in this K-Mart store quite frequently.  I enjoy that I can stop on the way home from work.   You have a loose cannon on your hands having that young man work directly with customers.

Also, I manage a savings blog.  I am posting a copy of this letter on my blog to let everyone know about my experience and what K-Mart does or does not do to correct it.

Thank You.

DK's Market - Hamel, IL - Freebies

I don't know if most of you have been to DK's before, but it is a nice little market in Hamel, IL, located about half way between Edwardsville, IL and Highland, IL.  I believe that they are affliated with Super Value.

I received their ad in the mail yesterday.  They are having their 10 for $10 sale this week like Schnucks and Dierbergs.  Anyhow, there are a lot of coupon match ups available.

I have not personally tried this pasta, but I have at least 5-6 of $1.00 coupons for these.  I can't remember the week I would have received them.  Also, I have a Internet printed for Ronzoni Healthy Harvest $1/2 and today I printed off their website $1/2 for the Garden Delight.  I haven't personally tried this pasta, but for free, I plan on giving it a try!!

A couple of weeks ago, at least, there was a printable coupon for $1/1 on Dole Salad mixes.  So this makes my salad free as well.  I remember that it was a Smart Source coupon, but do not know if it is still available.

I will probably price match these at Wal-Mart if they have them.  I like going to DK's, but I already need to run to Wal-Mart to pick up a ton of things and do not wish to double back.

DK's has started posting their ad online.  Click here to go to DK's website to view their entire ad.  These prices and deals are good from now until Jun 6th!

Enjoy and happy shopping!

Free Kens Salad Dressing - Cheap Colgate - Cheap Degree

Rather than repost the deals that you are seeing on other coupon sites, I thought that I would share a few of the ones that I have found on my own.

Shop N Save ran a newspaper ad advertising Kens Salad Dressing for 10/$10.  Shop N Save limits your coupons to 50% of the items value.  However, Wal-Mart does not....;)  I price matched two at Wal-Mart this morning.  Last week, their were $1/1 coupons for Ken's salad dressing.  My final cost at WM was $0.03!!!

Also, Deals ran an ad this week.  You have to be very careful to look at sizes in the Deals ad.  They have a Colgate toothbrushes and paste on sale for $1.  I was able to price match on Sunday.  The toothpaste was regularly $3.18.  I would have got it for a $0.25 with my $0.75 off any Colgate toothpaste coupon, but....  I didn't pay close enough attention.  The coupons expired on Saturday, the day before.  I decided to pass on this deal.  I have enough free toothpaste at home to last a while.  $0.25 would have been tempting, but wasn't going to pay $1.  Couponing is making me cheap.

One last deal was at CVS.  In their ad, they have Degree deoderant advertised for 2/$5.  This does exclude Ultra and Ultra clear (would have to check the ad for the exact wording.)  Anyhow, I went to CVS ready to buy 2 of the Motion Sense.  I am actually going to need deoderant very soon.  Well....Motion Sense was also excluded from the sale even though not included in the fine print.  So.....  I took my ad to Wal-Mart (gotta love WM) and price matched two of the Motion Sense, each at $2.50 a piece.  I was even lucky and able to score a free one.  They had one package that came with a free one wrapped to it for the same price.  I used my B1G1 free coupon from Degree in this weeks paper and my $1.00 off Motion Sense coupon that came with my free sample.  I paid $1.50 for both or $0.75 per item.  Through the free bottle in and they were $0.50 a piece.  Not bad for degree.  Also if you did not receive a sample with coupon, there was a $0.75 off degree coupon in the paper.

Happy shopping!
