How to Make Shopping at Walmart FUN

  • Step 1: Find a nearby Walmart that will not give you grief over internet printable coupons.
  • Step 2: Shop early on weekdays.
  • Step 3: Never shop at Walmart the day before a Holiday.
  • Step 4: Leave the kids at home.
  • Step 5: Bring something to quench your thirst (they put something in the air that makes you thirsty, I swear!)
  • Step 6: Have a list, avoid wandering aimlessly through the store (unless you consider that fun).
  • Step 7: Don’t fall for the Rollbacks on the endcaps!
  • Step 8: Look for the friendliest cashier.
  • Step 9: Group your items at checkout to impress said cashier (cold things, produce, etc.)
  • Step 10: Hand over all your coupons and watch your total shrink!

    Hi Janie! There is a $1 coup, you are right. Go to page 3 of the Walgreens coupons and you should see the $5 coup (same link).

    This makes the Zantac more than free at Wal-Mart!

    Enjoy!

    Was the Juicy Juice on sale? I went to my walmart ( North tarrant and Davis) and it wasn’t. I have like 5 coupons I want to use. Where did you go?

  7. Lisa says

    You are my coupon hero! I haven’t been taking the time to deal with coupons, but you are inspiring me.

  8. Alyssa says

    Aprel- No, I never found the $1.50 Juicy Juice, so I bought the regular stuff. My kids can’t get enough grape juice!

    I figured the overage on the other items made up for it.

  9. Sonya says

    Great tips! Thanks for sharing. I’m praying my Walmart won’t give me flack over internet coupons. If they do, I might lose it! LOL!

  10. Marianne Thomas says

    Alyssa, thanks for your kind words.

    You do great at Wal-Mart…I usually don’t shop there for groceries since I have Kroger Marketplace (can I just say I’d live in my K. Marketplace if they let me, it’s that beautiful) and because Wallyworld can’t compare on customer service to Kroger.

    But…I might just have to plan for a weekly trip to stock up on deals. Hmmm….

    Your blog looks lovely, btw. I know you’ve put in lots of time to get it looking so great.

    I love the meet up idea! Andrea and I are trying to meet up soon since we’re so close.

    Smiles!

  12. Alyssa says

    Cindy- Welcome! I am honored to be added to your links. Your portraits are absolutely breathtaking!

    I’m learning alot about couponing from all these boggs! I must say I’m one of the bored cashiers at Wal-mart!! LOL! Do you all know that we match prices in all newspaper ads, for all kinds of stores??? (with the exception of %’s off ?) ( BOGO’s we just price over-ride to half price on each idem) Other store coupons, say Target,Walgreens ect. we just price over-ride minus the coupon amount.I get upset too, because all stores don’t honor the sales or coupons the same way. No consistency company wide. My store is the easiest one to match prices, and use coupons at. (Littleton Co # 5049)
    P.S. All cashiers aren’t bad, a few of us do a good job!!LOL!
    P.S.S. If you do get a GREAT cashier, let 1-800-walmart know, so they get the recognition they deserve. They won’t at the store level. It helps them each evaluation.
