And the award for "Best Customer Service and No Questioning of Donna's Coupons" goes to.....
THE HARRIS TEETER AT BLAKENEY!!!!! I will only shop here from now on. I love Shane, the assistant manager and the fact that they take any coupon, no questions asked!!!
I will probably go to one more Harris Teeter tomorrow. Huggies Kids Shampoo and Detangler is on sale according to the Internet, but the only place I found it didn't show it to be on sale. I will investigate and then solve this mystery. Besides, with my coupons and my competitor coupon, HT will pay me to buy these! I'm on a high. Time for lunch!

HOLY COW...you amaze me Donna!! Way to go!
Donna, Donna, Donna! I'm so proud of you. It's an exciting adventure for you, and you are a role model for so many other couponers and bargain shopper. All this today, and then Roy coming home as well. What a wonderful day for you!! Now have lunch, get those kiddies down for a nap, and relax for a little while. ILY
Seriously??? You got all those items for free? OH MY GOODNESS!!!Man, do I feel like a dork for posting about getting a bag of instant potatoes for free. I'm laughing because I have that same Halls cough drop coupon and debated whether I should cut it out...but I'm going to hold out and hope that maybe, just maybe, I can get me a bag for pennies like you did!
Way to go, Donna! You're my hero...not only in blogging but in couponing too!!
What the!? Lynchburg needs a Harris Teeter BIG TIME!!!! It makes me sick to see how much you can save and I'm spending way more than I needed at ghetto Food Lion! Good job Donna. I still can't believe you got all the stuff in the first picture FREE and they even paid YOU!
WAY TO GO DONNA! You are amazing. I made two trips this morning and will blog about it in a bit - it's almost time for me to pick up my children.
Donna - we are sitting here with our jaws dropped. I just don't know how you do it. I guess I need to check out your friend's coupon blog. You are an amazing shopper!!
Unreal. Oh how I wish the stores here did at least double coupons. I just got back from Publix and saved $1.15 with my coupons.
And Dolly Dolly! Sweet girl. Don't talk that way. Yo'mama didn't teach you talk dat way.
Applause, Applause, Donna ---seriously, you amaze me, too! I am starting to "warm up" to this coupon idea and have even started to clip 'em! When I see them now, I think of YOU and I even showed my husband how much you saved at HT. He told me to "get on it" ---haha! So, kudos to you!
Donna, you got it girl. That was a great post. Way to go!!! I am sooo jealous you have Harris Teeter!
Donna- go to Julie's blog and read about your future HT trips.
Donna I am in awe of you and your money saving talents. I love Harris Teeter and so wish we had one here still! Good job! You are a professional!
I am astounded!! I told Willie that HT practically pays you when you go shopping like this. I really need to do better and you bought things you need and will use - not just ramdon things. I bet you are tired but I know it's a good tired!
I am so impressed. Are you for real! I have to show Corey this post, then again maybe not, because he will expect me to do the same! I need some coaching and lessons in coupons please!
First of all as Dolly mentioned, we dont have a HT and so every time you blog about it I just get mad and jealous. Second, I do not understand at all how you get everything for free and then they pay you. I want to sign up for classes on Blogging and Coupons with Mrs. Donna Graham.
Dolly Reber Seckman...watch your language. You know how I feel about that.
Now that's impressive! I didn't do so well today, but at least I got a lot of stuff drastically reduced! Which coupons did you use on the dry jello mix?
Sweet MOTHER! They PAID you? We need a Harris Teeter. You've got to be so proud when you go to pull out the powdered sugar for a recipe...you can say to yourself...I didn't even pay for this. I love how thrifty you are!
I will sign up for the classes!!!
Now, now...let's don't give Dolly a hard time because how could you not think that when you saw all those items were free!! Poor Dolly...were you the black sheep of the family?
OK, I am sitting here shaking my head...#1 I am proud of you and in AWE #2 I am jealous of you and am praying through it right now #3 I am feeling a huge amount of condemnation b/c I gave up coupon shopping years ago b/c it wasn't worth it for the trouble and last but now least #4 I am overwhelmed. PLEASE, OH PLEASE do a post where you give all of us coupon retards a point by point lesson on how you coupon shop from clipping out of the paper to websites you check and how you research, etc. God is calling you! Just say "YES"
We "Reber" girls got our mouths washed out with soap if we ever said a bad word....but this blog deserves one of those words that start with a "D" and ends with an "N" - giving emphasis on the "A". You go DJ!!
And Darla - your daddy is building you a Kroger...
OK, I HAVE HEARD ENOUGH!!!! JENIUS, WE NEED YOU TO INTERVENE, THIS PROFANITY IS GETTING TOTALLY OUT OF HAND!!!!
Ugh! I am so mad. I love coupons. I have a organizer for them and everything, but no one here does double or triple, ever! So not fair. But I'll keep saving my $5.00 a week.....
Jenny M., I thought Kroger did double coupons up to 50 cents????? And a long time ago, they would do triple every few months. Maybe they changed it.
Yes, Kroger does double coupons only up to .50 cents. Not much but better than nothing. I did use some of your Harris Teeter coupons that you gave me at KROGER last night Donna and it worked. I stocked up on some rice cereal for the baby.
Thanks for sticking up for me Jennifer on the comment I made but I'm shocked at all of you who were inserting a bad word into my comment. Where are your minds? This girl DOESN'T have a potty mouth!
I continue to be amazed at you, Donna. Every day when I read your blog I'm impressed with you. I get so excited when I get a free gallon of milk at Food Lion every couple of months. One of these days I'm going to get organized like you! Thanks for all the inspiration!!
