[QUOTE="Star*, post: 442319, member: 4964"] Okay Lemme see --------- I got (and I hate OUR Kmart because no one EVER knows that the REST of the worlds Kmarts are doing these deals and it's not must ME trying to "rip them off" every.single.time) 8 packs of Begging Strips regular $2.99 each - $24.00 On Sale BOGO free I had 4 coupons for BOGO free I had 4 coupons for $1.00 2 I figured it as paying $3,98 for all 8 bags of snacks - meaning Regular 8 x 3.00 = 24.00 BOGO (store sale) = 12.00 minus 1.00 coupon x 4 -.4.00 = 8.00 Then my 4 BOGO coupons (divide) remaining in half again = 4.00 or roughly $3.98 for 8 bags of dog snacks. NOPE......not what Kmart figured. Here's Kmarts Math - 2.99 per bag of snacks - x 8 snacks = 23.92 okay now the snacks are BOGO already so you take the 4 single coupons and subtract 4 -11.96 = 11.96 Now take off the (4.00) coupons =7.96 So I said - okay - but what about YOUR BOGO sale? She said - Well that's right there - Points to the BOGO coupon - I said - NO That's MY coupon. She said NO that's the SALE price. I said NO - that's MY coupon. She argued with me and said NO they already RING up like that. I said NO they do not. If they DID? Then they would have rung up 8 for 11.96 ----and technically - that's not what happened - they rang UP full price.....No no no she says Our stuff rings up sale price.
