Kmart Field Notes 7/4/10

Did anyone stop at Kmart today for the Double Coupon Event?

I stopped at the store in the City around noon. I don't trust Kmart after some of the shenanigans they've pulled, so I stopped at the Customer Service desk to confirm that the store was doubling health and beauty coupons up to $2 this week. The girl at Customer Service knew nothing about it, but she did call someone and confirm they were.

Bloggers everywhere have lists of Kmart coupon match-ups, so I printed a few and took the lists with me to confirm prices. Many of my store's prices were significantly different. It was not uncommon for the prices to be a dollar or two higher, and in one case $7.50 higher! Yes, I checked prices at the scanner. I don't know if stores' prices vary that much, or where the list of prices came from to begin with.
