Frances Frugal Fairhope Tip: Store to Store Stacking UPDATE
Frugal Fairhope is coining a new phrase, if you see this anywhere else you know where they got it from, Frugal Fairhope.
Store to Store Stacking
What does Store to Store Stacking mean? We came up with this so we are going to define it as stacking coupons from store to store. It is the same as stacking coupons (manufacture and store) but this time you are using a store’s coupons at completely different store. Exciting Stuff!!!
The first order of business was to test the Colgate and ThermaCare deal at the local Walgreen’s store. A reader was having issues with getting the 2nd Register Rewards to print so we wanted to test this out again for ourselves just in case it stopped working. Well it worked just fine. We would normally donate products like the ThermaCare to the medical clinic on Hwy 104, but realized on the way home that we could use this to keep warm for the Mardi Gras parade.
Now down to the fun stuff, yes we stopped at three stores today, but as you will see it was so worth the extra effort, especially when the stores within a few miles of each other.

Some of you may ask how do I get my hands on the $10 off $30 Winn-Dixie catalina coupon? We really don’t have an answer but we can tell you this, we have signed up for the baby club on Winn-Dixie’s site and we received the catalina coupon today. Will this give you an immediate coupon, we don’t know. But you could to to Winn-Dixie and get your free tuna and give it a try. We would sign up for the baby club first (if appropriate). If you can’t get your hands on the $10 off $30 Winn-Dixie coupon, use the $5 off $25 Rite Aid and your Publix transaction will look like this:
Publix
8 Aveeno Baby Wash & Lotion $3.79 each = $30.32
-Used 8 $2 Printable
-$5 off $25 from Winn-Dixie
-$2.50 in Register Rewards from Walgreen’s Thermacare purchase

Store to Store Stacking
Update: According to the rebate you have to buy 2 or more brands, we realized last night that we failed to mention that we had already purchased a bottle of Lubriderm at Walgreen’s for less than $1. The form does not state that $30 in products have to be purchased on the same receipt.
