I used the coupon today. I purchased 4 items: a 3-pack of heater filters; two 2-packs of CFL bulbs; a pack of felt pads for the legs of our kitchen chairs. The total for the 4 items was $27.92 and I got $10.00 off, so a discount of 35.8% on things that we needed to buy anyway. I think that was a good deal. Plus, yesterday, I got a 2nd identical coupon in the mail. It is good until the end of the month. I may or may not use that one - only if I can think of other things that we actually need to buy. It really isn't tough since they do sell everyday items like trash bags, cleaning supplies and such. I don't normally buy them there but I could if I'm getting a 30-40% discount.

Steve: I buy items like the cleaners for my stove top there and also the special stove sponges unless someone can tell me of a different brand that will not ruin my stove top. I also buy stainless steel cleaners, garbage bags, mulch on sell. and even paint if you need to paint something. There are many items that you can buy that may be on sale there.
