Pamida Double Coupon Event

Posted by kim on March 10, 2010

Pamida (find list of stores here) is having a double coupon event this week through March 12th, 2010.  They will double all manufacturer’s coupons up to and including $1.00. I didn’t know Pamida ever doubled coupons, and I just happen to be traveling to West Point (Nebraska) today so brought along my coupon box to check it out!

I ended up spending more time drooling over the clearance items throughout the store!   I found so many items marked down that I would have liked to buy, but resisted because my boyfriend always reminds me that I need to stop buying things that I don’t need just because they are cheap! Otherwise, I would have stocked up on the cheap long johns, throw blankets and bathroom accessories.

Although I couldn’t resist the heated mattress pad on clearance for $24.99. My boyfriend gave me one for Christmas (and paid three times as much), and I love it!  I actually found another one on clearance at ShopKo a few weeks ago for $29.99 that I got for my daughter.  So this will go to another daughter.  Now I need one more.

Sorry, I’m rambling again.  Back to double coupons….

I have to admit that I only ended up using six coupons as their prices were quite high on non-sale items, so even after doubling my coupon, it wasn’t a real good deal. But here’s what I got…

(2) Airwick Aqua Essences on clearance for $1.50 – $1 c/o doubled = FREE

Orbit Gum 3-pk on clearance for $2.46 (yes, it’s regularly over $3 there) – $1 c/o doubled = 46¢ (they also had Extra Fruit Sensations 3-pk on clearance for $1)

Lysol Disinfectant $4.29 on sale – $1 c/o doubled = $2.29 (not a bad price for something I needed)

Always Maxi Pads on clearance for $3 – $1 c/o doubled = $1 (three daughters, remember?)

Pringles Cans $1.50 each on sale x 4 – $1/4 c/o doubled = $1 each

They did accept internet coupons as well. Plus the store was clean and the cashier exceptionally friendly. All pluses.

I signed up to receive special offers and promotions at Pamida.com as the next time I travel to Sioux City (there is a Pamida in Wayne) or travel to Omaha (Pamida in West Point), I may need to make a pit stop there!

$10 off $10 at JCPenney’s

Did you get your $10 off $10 coupon for JCPenney’s in the mail?  Another advantage to recycling paper is the ability to dig through old junk mail in case something of importance (like a high dollar coupon) accidentally got thrown out!

My coupon arrived last week and is valid from 2/14 through Saturday, 2/27/10 for $10 off a single purchase of $10 or more.  My friend, Dustie, already used hers on some great clearance items. I believe she got two pairs of shoes and a blouse for only $3 with her coupon.

If you weren’t lucky enough to receive this coupon, first sign up now to get on JCPenney’s mailing list!

And although it’s too late to receive this exact coupon in the mail, you can still take advantage of the current the deal online or for phone purchases:

$10 off $10 at JCP.com Code: TEN4YOU
Plus receive 3% Cash Back on all JCPenney orders through Ebates.

Or Call 1-800-222-6161 and mention the code.

P.S. Yes, I’m still in my pajamas in the above picture. I’m wearing my new flannel lounger pajamas!
