HOLEY MOLEY: Kmart Doubles Is BACK!


I can't believe it - it's almost here - the return of Kmart Doubles!!!  For all you newbies, that means Kmart will double coupons up to $2 for total of $4 Off.... Yes you heard me right - FOUR DOLLARS!

The first doubles event is April 4th, that's right EASTER SUNDAY!  Of course, with the return of Kmart Doubles comes the inevitable NEW RULES.  Looks like a 5 Coupon Limit has been imposed, and you will have to swipe your Kmart Rewards Card to get your coupons to double.  Here is an excerpt from the letter sent to Angie over at ShortOnCents:
"This event is for select participating Kmart locations from 04/04/10 to 04/10/10.The rules for this event are:
-Manufacturer Coupons up to and including $2 Value are doubled up to $2 no matter what the retail price of a single item is
-Does not include Kmart Store Coupons
-Does not include Kmart Pharmacy Store Coupons
-Limit 5 total coupons per customer per day"
 I'm actually happy about the 5-Coupon Limit, since I hate getting there and finding cleared shelves.   What do you guys think about all this?

  2. Oh, and I think for those of us that are ethical and leave things for others, the limit of five doubles a day stinks, however, I would love to be able to find the things I want to get big doubles on too! With a five a day limit, the hoarders, hopefully, won't be as successful at clearing the shelves!

  3. YEAH!!!!! I am so excited! Although the new rules kind of stink it just sounds like I will be making a daily trip all week!

  4. I like the 5 a day rule because it's aggravating going into a store to find empty shelves the day the sales start! I'm so excited about Kmart doubling again!

  5. As a newbie this is very exciting! Rules or no rules we only have one Kmart in town so I'm glad for the limits.

  6. Woo hoo - I am so thrilled it's time again!! Last doubles round I went and was just frustrated and checked the dates on the "double days" flyers that were posted around the store and decided I would come back the day before it was supposed to end. Um, they decided to pull it 3 days early. I sent a rather lengthy letter to the CEO of Kmart Corp and was sent a $50 gift card for my trouble. So - bring on the doubles, I will gladly go every day. The limit reminds me of the CVS limits, so that is okay by me.

  7. I am sooo super excited about this!!! I love the 5 a day limit. It will be much easier on my brain this way! :) I am also glad to see this little tid-bit of info...-Manufacturer Coupons up to and including $2 Value are doubled up to $2 no matter what the retail price of a single item is....I have had issues in the past with them not doubling up to the full coupon value b/c it would make my item "free". I definately see some freebies heading my way with this one!!

  8. Is this for all K-Marts or just certain ones??

  9. I remember when there was a limit of 75 coupons per day per person. The limit of 5 and the price of gas makes this a "kind sorta" opportunity for a limited few. Not everyone lives close enough to a K-Mart to go every day and 5 barely makes the drive reasonable. Personally, I don't believe this rule will take care of the "empty shelf" problem. People will just take more people with them.

  10. People still find a way around the CVS limit so Im sure they will find their way around this one too, but its nice they are making the effort to make it fair. I will make on the first Sunday and see how it goes and hope I get lucky. Kmart is a bit out of the way for a daily trip.
