Harris Teeter Shopping Trip 5/2/2015

A new printable coupon showed up today for Speed Stick Gear deodorant so I wanted to go pick up a few more of the spray deodorants that I found on clearance.  Today is the first day that I had a problem using my $2 coupon on the clearance deodorants.  The cashier insisted that I should not receive the full value since I was only paying $1.93 per item but the manager put them through for $2 after I explained that the store will get the full value of the coupon and it would not give me a negative balance.  I bought other things in both transactions to use up the overage.  Previously the cashiers have not said anything about the coupons, they just asked a manager to input them since the clearance items are just tagged as mark downs.

I was also hoping they would have some of the Irish Spring Gear body washes since they had a truck come in last night but there were none of the shelf.  Since they told me yesterday they were willing to sub a regular Irish Spring body wash so I could use my coupon I grabbed those and a toothpaste to get the $3 instant savings.
