FREE Lysol Healthy Touch

Its official, our beloved Ukrop's stores have been taken over by Martin's! I was a little discouraged by all of the changes, but I recently received a Martin's booklet filled with coupons for the entire month of May in the mail and became encouraged...a little! The booklet included $3 off $30 purchase coupons, plus coupons for FREE items, so it tempted me to match up my coupons to their sale items. I did pretty good yesterday with my match-ups and saved over $50 after coupons!

In addition to all the other sale items, I was happy to see that this week the Lysol Healthy Touch starter kits were on sale buy one, get one FREE. I had 2 more $5 off mfc which expire 5/25. The shelf price for these were $9.99, so I was pretty excited when I got up to the register because I knew that I would get both of them for FREE after my 2 $5 mfc! But I got an even bigger surprise! The 2 Lysol kits would not ring up BOGO FREE, so the cashier called over the store manager. The manager was extremely polite, apologetic and told me that since the items were advertised as BOGO FREE and not ringing up properly that I will receive both FREE of charge, plus the money for my coupons! WHAT???!! She gave me back $9.50 (they had to charge me 50 cents for the tax). I was completely surprised. Its Martin's policy that if an item does not ring up correctly, you receive the item FREE of charge! I miss Ukrop's but Martin's is starting to grow on me! :)
