Groupon – the “group” coupon

Thursday, April 29th, 2010

groupon logoI know we’re in the midst of Harris Teeter triples, but I wanted to share a new service I just heard about. It’s called Groupon.

How it works:

  1. Each day Groupon features something cool (local events, local restaurant deals, etc.) at an unbeatable price. (for instance, today it was $6 for $12 Worth of Fresh Mexican Cuisine at Qdoba Mexican Grill)
  2. You only get it if enough people join that day… so invite your friends!
  3. Check back the next day for another awesome Groupon! (or better yet, just sign up for email alerts about each days’ deal)

I made my first purchase today for the Qdoba deal. We don’t go out to eat often, but usually it’s for Mexican food, so this was right up my alley.

If you’ve already tried Groupon, I’d love to hear about your experience, so please post feedback about Groupon in the comments section.

Harris Teeter Brags 4/28

Wednesday, April 28th, 2010

I was in and out pretty quick because I had a client meeting this morning. I did well (forgot to get eggs, though!). They have some good sale-priced items (no coupons) that I’ll go back for later today or tomorrow.

Anyway, here is what I got for $4.55. That’s down from $38.

$4.55 buys a lot during triple coupons at Harris Teeter

How did you guys do? Post your totals in the comments section, or email me a photo and I’ll add it to the site.

Another deal for Harris Teeter Triples

Wednesday, April 28th, 2010

I’m updating the master list for Harris Teeter Triples Matchups, but I’d set this aside yesterday and just now looked it up. My bad! That Q was from the insert my sister sent me from California.

Nabisco Planters Big Nut-Rition Bars – Energy on sale for $2.50. Coupon from 2/21 SS for .75/1 makes these only 25¢ a box. Only available if your ordered Qs online.

Sorry this is so late!

I checked everything except the RedPlum (since I don’t get those). Glad I checked at least 1/3 of the items gleaned from other sites had the wrong prices.

A few notes: where I have ## in the product description, I have a sale price listed, not sure which ones will still be around tomorrow, so I wanted to note it. I tried out and printed most of the IPs. Some of them only come up with certain zip codes. (Mostly I deleted the ones where I couldn’t identify a zip that would bring up the Q.)

Lots of freebies, and plenty of cheap groceries.

Please post errors and items I’ve missed in the comments section and I’ll make the necessary changes since we have a whole week of triples.

(Very excited that HT decided to do it again so soon!)

Harris Teeter Triples coming next week

Saturday, April 24th, 2010

Word on the web is that Harris Teeter will be doing triple coupons starting April 28th and ending on May4th. The source that gave me this information is excellent. I’ll be building a “regular price” list while I wait for the ad preview to hit the Internet on Monday.
