Update: Details on Food Lion double coupons and a list of participating stores

               

As I reported here Friday evening, Food Lion will offer a double coupon promotion in the Triangle and Fayetteville.

The promotion will start Wednesday and will last for two weeks.

Here are the details on how the promotion will work and a list of stores, according to company spokeswoman Christy Phillips-Brown:

Kroger offers deals of the day

Today's the first day of  Kroger's weeklong "CartBuster Deal of the Day" promotion.

Sign in to your Kroger account here and load a digital coupon onto your Kroger loyalty card for a free Larabar when you purchase one. I initially thought the Larabar was completely free, but that's not the case. I have some great readers who called this to my attention and I so appreciate all of you!

You have until March 31 to redeem the coupon.

Be sure to check back every day through March 6 for new deals of the day.

New Sunday coupons = new deals at Harris Teeter

I'm sure I'm not the only one who was hoping for three or four coupon inserts this Sunday to go with Harris Teeter's Super Doubles promo.

But even with just one new Red Plum insert today, there are a handful of coupon match-ups worth noting:

The power of coupons: 89% saved at Harris Teeter Super Doubles

I made a quick trip to my Harris Teeter in Apex this afternoon to take advantage of its Super Doubles promotion. Here's how I did:

I bought $102.31 worth of groceries.

After coupons: I paid $12.39. That's an 89 percent savings.

I love to show folks how I did at a special couponing event like Super Doubles, not to brag, but to illustrate the power of coupons to save money.

Here's a breakdown of how the savings added up:

Tell us your Harris Teeter Super Doubles stories

Here's your chance to tell us how you did at Super Doubles. Go ahead and brag!

How many coupons did you use? How much did you spend? How much did you save?

Do you have any funny stories from the aisles or at the cash register? Was your store busy or eerily empty?

Were the shelves well-stocked or did it seem as if you were shopping in the hours before a looming snow storm?

This is the place to leave your comments.

UPDATED: Harris Teeter Super Doubles good deals list

Updated 10 a.m. Wednesday.

Harris Teeter's Super Doubles coupon promotion starts Wednesday and runs through Feb. 21 with lots of potential for super good deals. In many cases, we're talking freebies and items for under $1.

I've compiled a comprehensive list specifically tailored to Triangle shoppers by walking the aisles of my local Harris Teeter in Apex to verify prices and sale dates.

If the deal is based on a regular-priced item, I've noted that on the list. If the deal is part of a sale that is continuing, I've indicated that information as well.

All of the coupons listed are among those we received here in the Triangle, along with readily available printables, magazine and tearpad coupons.

Give a kiss, Get a BOGO deal at Qdoba

                                     

Qdoba Mexican Grill will be celebrating Valentine's Day with a BOGO deal. No coupon required -- just a kiss.

Qdoba customers who purchase one entree on Tuesday, Feb. 14, will get a second entree free when they kiss someone in the restaurant.

It would probably be best to bring someone along to score this deal, but Qdoba suggests "an understanding stranger at the cash register" is not out of bounds.

I love a company with a sense of humor.

Harris Teeter Super Doubles confirmed for this week

Harris Teeter is confirming that it will indeed host a Super Double coupon promotion, starting Wednesday, Feb. 15.

Harris Teeter's corporate Twitter account tweeted the news about an hour ago:

Need a little pick me up? SUPER DOUBLE COUPONS are BACK! From Feb. 15-21, we will double your coupons up to $1.98.

If you participated in Lowes Foods Super Doubles promo, which continues through Tuesday, you may be wondering if you'll have any coupons left for Round 2 of super couponing.

While it's inevitable to have some overlap, I'm confident the Harris Teeter promo will yield some new freebies and deals. So stay tuned.

I'll be scoping out my Harris Teeter for all the continuing sales so please check back later for the start of a good deals list.

Harris Teeter Super Doubles rumored for next week

Speculation is mounting on the national coupon forums that Harris Teeter will likely hold a Super Doubles promotion starting Wednesday, Jan. 4.

No one has yet to see the Jan. 4 circular, but Harris Teeter has kicked off each of the last three years with either a Triples or Super Doubles event. In fact, since 2009, the store has rarely strayed from its monthly schedule of special couponing events.
