"DH and I made the
Walgreens rounds in CT &
came home with 20
packages of big
plates, 2 dessert
packages and 2 bowls.
It was a great deal even
though we didn't have
any coupons to start the
chain. We joked that
these plates are much
nicer than our "usual"
paper plates LOL. Since
it's just us and the 4
kitty children we should
be set for a while but
as a dedicated refunder
if another super paper
plate deal came along
tomorrow I'd be there.
Thanks again to everyone
who posted - I love
getting a great deal and
dh is just as excited as
I am to chase these
fabulous finds. :) The
best part though was
when I told him he was
going to be a Dixie Diva
ROFL !!!! His look was
priceless!!!" - Lisa

"I recently got married in April and have
started searching for more ways to save money so
that when my husband gets out of the Army (9/08)
we can buy a house! At first I thought that he
would see me as a little crazy for what I do in
my spare time, as most males do! To my surprise,
he thinks that I am the smartest woman that he
has ever met and is so excited, because he knows
how much money we are saving doing deals. I went
first thing after hearing about the Dixie post
and continued to stop at Walgreens every chance
I got that week. I managed to gather a total of
20 free with overage Dixie items. I know that
some others have gathered more, but this was a
sufficient supply for just the two of us!"

"Hi, I'm Kaylee Lynn and I love to go shopping
with my mom and grandfather. My job is to smile
and look pretty to keep the store employees
happy to take our coupons. We ended up with 41
packs of plates at .43 each!" -Jim Morgan

"Summer time is always a hectic, busy, and fun
filled time! I have four kids; two teenagers and
two in elementary school. I am also babysitting
two other children this summer and we always
have neighbor kids over. So you can imagine my
excitement when I logged on to RefundCents last
week and discovered the Dixie deal! I feverishly
read each post and gathered all of my
information. To my dismay, there were no coupons
to be found to lessen the out of pocket that
would be spent to get the chain going. However,
I had already purchased the Planters trail mix
and had a $1.50 catalina to get me started, not
to mention the my gift card finally arrived in
the mail a few days earlier. I wrote out my
notes, filled my gas tank and off I went. I hit
the first store and picked up two packs of
plates. Using my $1.50 catalina and the B1G1
coupon, my total was $2.29 plus tax. I saw the
little machine begin to print that much
anticipated coupon for $3/2 Dixie products.
Score!! I ran back and grabbed two more packs of
plates and did the deal again paying $1.03
including tax. Off I went to find more stores.
When I wasn’t able to find plates, I switched
over to bowls. When all was said and done, I
scored 11 packs of plates and 11 packs of
bowls!!! My grand total was put on my gift card,
so I paid NOTHING out of my pocket for all of
these products! Not having to do lunch dishes
this summer for 4+ children = PRICELESS!!" -

"Here is a picture of the 30 packages of Dixie
plates I got at Walgreens! My family goes
through tons of paper plates, we usually buy
them at Sam's Club in bulk, so when I saw this
deal on RC I headed over to Walgreens to try and
find some. I think I hit this deal when it was
first reported on the site, so when I arrived at
my local Walgreens there was an ample supply of
plates for the picking. I purchased 2 plates to
begin with to see if the deal actually would
work, and sure enough it worked perfectly, so I
went back and got 28 more packages. I was lucky
to check out at the cosmetics counter with a
very helpful cashier who was just as excited as
I was at the deal I was getting. Both the 28
count packages and the 22 packages of heavy duty
plates worked for this deal. I got 700 (30
packages of 22-28 count) plates and spent
$19.65. That's 2.8 cents per plate! Also, in
the picture is 4 boxes of peel n' seal envelopes
that were 75% off and .52 cents a box and a roll
of scotch tape for .62 cents also 75% off.
Thanks to all the fellow RCers for alerting me
to this deal!"

"My name is Jill Kirk! This is my
first month using RefundCents and I'm
hooked! I love using coupons and the Dixie raid
has been my first stockpile fun and I can't wait
for more. I know I probably won't have nearly
what some people bought, but I love the 14
packages I got. When I went to Walgreens,
they were almost out of them, and I bought the
remaining packages that applied. When I heard
they were substituting the other Dixie plates
that weren't mentioned on the coupon, I went and
got a few more. I should have bought them all
out, but the lady at the cash register was so
excited to see how the deal was working and was
shocked each time a register reward came out per
transaction. I knew there weren't many Dixie
packages left and the lady said on her break she
wanted to go buy some, so I didn't go back for
more and left some for her, and also gave her my
last $3 coupon/Register Reward to put towards
her first purchase! She was so excited and it
was fun for me as much as I'm sure it made her
day! I got 14 packages for only $12.04.
Regularly priced I would have spend $53.06. What
a bargain! I plan to have tons of BBQ's with all
my friends this summer... plates and bowls on
me!!"

"My girls
and I went to Walgreens for the Dixie plates. My
kids are 3 and 5. We only got 10 packs but that
will be good enough for us. Deal shopping is
helping me teach my kids math. I explained we
needed to get groups of two. My oldest would
count out two at a time and then at the end, she
counted them all for me to tell me how many we
had. The little one just loves to put stuff in
the cart and be a big helper! I headed to the
register and of of my favorite coupon cashiers
was working. Once I saw she was there, I knew it
would be easy shopping! I got in line, did my
first transaction, the catalina coupon printed
just fine. I started my second transaction and
there was a line forming. I stepped out of line
and headed towards the back. A few minutes later
the kids and I got back in line and finished up
my transactions without any issues." - Jen

"Hi. My name is Melanie and this is my
first week using RefundCents and I love it
already! In this one deal I made back almost
double what I paid for my 6 month subscription
and my coupon organizer! I regularly use Dixie
plates at home and my sons love their slogan,
"Make it a Dixie Day" which they will often sing
when I serve them food on Dixie plates. Well,
after this deal (26 packs of plates and bowls)
they are singing "Make it a Dixie Year" because
we have enough to last about that long! I can't
believe that 26 packs of plates should have cost
over $90 and I paid under $16! What an amazing
savings! Thanks to everyone at RefundCents for
all of your help with this deal! I'll be
watching for the next one!" Melanie G.

"Here is a
picture of my handsome grandson Ryder, with my
Dixie plate & bowl haul. I ended up with 10
packages of the large plates, 4 dessert plates
and 2 packages of bowls. I did the deal 8 times,
but 2 times per trip, on only 4 trips. After
receiving a $3 coupon on my first order, each
order was only .86 cents. So my grand total for
all the paper goods was $9.81... not a bad deal
at all. My husband and son will use every one I
bought on their hunting trips this fall and
winter. No more full price paper plates for me."

"Hi my name is Melissa and here
is a picture of my two boys. Walt is on the
left. He is almost 4 years old and is usually
the one who goes shopping with me. Owen is 7, so
he is usually in school while mom goes shopping.
However now that it's summer we all go shopping
together. We only found out about the Dixie
plate deal 3 days before the end of the sale, so
we tried to find what we could between the 3
local Walgreens. All together we got 9 packages
of bowls and 3 packages of plates, some are
already in the cupboard. I'm sure we'll find
lots of uses for the plates & bowls with 2
imaginative boys around. It's amazing what they
can come up with. The bowls have already starred
as a super-duper tall tower from which they had
to rescue a princess, a very bumpy road for the
toy trucks and a makeshift scooper/dump truck
for their sandbox." Melissa

"The Dixie deal was very good to me!
When I did my first deal, I was already to pay
my original $3.xx to get the chain started.
However, when the catalina came out, my cashier
grabbed it and scanned it immediately, making my
first total only a few pennies! I would have
stopped her but she scanned it before I realized
what was going on. I immediately went back and
grabbed all the Dixie that they had and did the
deal four more times! I ended up with 7 sets of
plates and 5 sets of bowls for cheap, cheap,
cheap!" Lisa Stipe, AR

"Hello
Refunders, This is my Dixie Haul and what fun it
was. Joshua and Molly, our two youngest of six
are dotting the eyes of DIXIE. We ended up with
(30) 28 ct, (6) 60 ct, (4) 40 ct, (4) 28 ct
bowls, (11) 22 ct plates, (7) 54 ct plates,
and (3) 45 ct plates. I was able to purchase
2115 plates and 112 bowls in 32
different transactions. I have been passing two
Walgreens twice daily
(sometimes more) taking my son to a phys ed
class at his high school plus my
other son is working at the high school, so I
frequented these Walgreens at
different times each day of the sale. I bought 2
packages @ $3.79 each, used
a WG in ad c/o of B1G1F and out came a $3
catalina each time. I ended up
with two catalinas and bought 4 more packages at
Meiers to end the chain
yesterday. I paid $4.04 on the first order and
$1.04 on each transaction
after that. I spent a total of $36.28 which is
about .016 per item. We went
to Amish country last weekend and left a bunch
with my brother, gave some to
my mom and will continue to share this bounty
with others. That is the fun
of this site. We are able to give so much more
away than we have ever been
able to before. I love Refund Cents and was
thrilled to be a part of this
deal..... BTW, Michelle, we appreciate all your
hard work and effort to
allow us to be a part of these great deals.
Thanks to all of you for posting
and freely sharing your great deals with
others." Beth M, OH
