    I couldn’t find the $3.69 bottles. The cat and points do roll. I brought 3 downy $15 and bic pens 50 cents. I used $5 cat from yesterday, $5/3 downy and 5000 pts and paid 61 cents. I received another $5 cat and 5000 bonus points. I’m going back tomorrow again for my third trip. It’s not a mm but 61 cents is good enough for me.

    They are 3/15.00 at my store.

    • marissa

      They are! 3/$15…on the ads.

      • mel

        The ones that are 3/$15 are Ultra and reg priced $5.69. $3.69 is a smaller bottle and that is the everyday price.

        • lorigibe

          So it’s not the 64 oz bottle size? If not, what bottle size is $3.69? TIA!

          • mel

            $3.69 bottle is 64 oz / 21 loads.
            3/$15 bottle is 51 oz / 60 loads

            • lorigibe

              thx!

  3. angel

    Can we do this deal more than once on our rewards card? Is there a limit to how many $5 coupons we can get per member? I dont want to go in there again expecting another $5 coupon and 5000 points if it’s only one deal per member

    • kari

      My points showed up for both but not the coupon (just the first one) – but I went to customer service and they gave me a $5 gift card in its place 🙂

  4. steph

    They have closed so many of the Kmart stores in the past few years that the closest one to me is now over 50 miles away. I now know how you feel Collin with not having a CVS to shop at.

  5. Sheela

    Will the $5 in points show up, even if I paid with points? I don’t seem them on my account. On my receipt it shows I do have 5000 points. I guess I’ll call customer service to find out

    • mel

      the points show up in your account the next day.

    • Catie

      I was told it would take up to 24 hours for them to show up. I purchased yesterday and it showed the points on my receipt. They weren’t in my account until this morning.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      I purchased these 3 bottles of Downy using points and my receipt still stated that I earned the 5,000 Bonus Points with this purchase.

      • mel

        That’s right Collin, it’ll show on your receipt, but it won’t show up in your online acct til the next day 🙂

        • lorigibe

          I just went into my Shop Your Way profile to look for my number to add into Savings Star but I’m not seeing it. Any idea where I would find it?

          • Jim

            on the top right where it shows your point balance click on that then in the pop up box under your name it will say membership click that and it will show a printable version of the SYWR card with your acct number and pin

            • lorigibe

              Thanks Jim!

          • mel

            You don’t add your SYW # to SavingStar. You have to download the app to your smartphone as you need to upload your receipt and scan the product UPC to get credit.

            • Jane

              No, actually they just added K-Mart as a store to add using your card number. I just did it yesterday…I know it works since I don’t even have a smart phone. I’m loving it!

            • Carol_R

              I don’t know how some people are adding Kmart to SavingStar. For me it’s not one of the available stores.

  6. M

    Where I live we couldn’t get the phoenix paper yesterday and the local is not worth at all they don’t even have the p&g insert so no cupons for yesterday 🙁 but glad for others getting good deals!

  7. MariaA

    I believe the tide-to-go are also included in the deal, prices at $3.69, buy 3 and use $0.50/1 or $1/2 for a small mm.

    • anna

      what does the tide to go look like? where are they

      • MariaA

        You can google it. But they look like pens/markers

        • anna

          did some one try it?

    • Julie

      It says on the bottom of the ad tide to go pens are excluded

  8. Sara

    How many times can this deal be done?

    • Kacie

      One deal per transaction, but no limit on transactions you can do.

  9. bluecaites

    How soon can that Catalina be used? Can I use it immediately after?

    • Kacie

      No. The following day.

  10. shannon S

    and 16ct tide pods are $5 each also for those of you that still have the $2/1 tide/downey/bounce coupons 🙂

    • shannon S

      and they are included in the deal for points and cat

  11. cynthia

    Can I use the catalina I receive for the same deal again? will I receive another?

  12. Teetee20055

    The cat and points are rolling. I did the deal yesterday and again today. I used the cat from yesterday, points from yesterday and $5/3 q and added 50 cents pens. I got another $5 cat and 5000 bonus pts. The pts will take 24 hours to show up. I checked this morning and my points weren’t there. I didn’t have time to check before I went to lunch but when I ask if I had points to redeem at checkout the 5000 pts were there. I only had 99 points from the start so I know they were from yesterday Downy Transaction.

    • liz

      Can u please explain why you need a filler? What is Kmart coupon policy?

  13. carolina

    can I use a SYWR coupon that is ( spend 10.00 and get 3,000 surprise points on this deal?

  14. Heather

    I was able to do separate transactions and keep reusing the five off. 👍😙

    • shawna

      wow where you able to use the 5 off the same day? does it work?

      • Heather

        I was able to use the printable five off and use it on the NEXT downy purchase.Loved it! Just kept doing it over and over. 🙂

  15. Emily

    I need fabric softener too! I’ll have to grab this on my way home from work, I didn’t bring my coupons with me today. Here’s hoping they still have some on the shelves when I get there!

  16. amber

    The pink april fresh bottle didn’t work for the $5 catalina coupon, but it worked for the points, go figure! ended up with a $5 gift card instead, which was better anyway 🙂

  17. leeb

    did this deal for 3 days rolling it each time now submitting for rebate from P & G for $10.

  18. A

    How do I know if my local KMart has the points and giftcard deal going? I do not get an ad in my paper. Will they have an ad in store for me to look at? Just worried it won’t give me the points and giftcard and have no proof it should’ve. I’m new to couponing at KMart so one more question—how do I earn the points? Do I need a Shop Your Way card? Thanks.

  19. Renee

    Just saw on another site that the catalina has stopped rolling. She and another gal tried it and when they used the catalina another did not print. Also it is taking the full 24 hours for your points to show up in your account.

    • Kaylene

      what site said that?

    • Kaylene

      I just did the deal today and my Catalina rolled just fine… 7/31

      • Renee

    Anyone else having issues with Kmart taking your points after earning them??? They did it to me and my sister (after we did this deal twice) …??? I called and the lady did know why and added them back for me, just thought I’d ask!

    • Holly

      Just had this issue and wrote to them about it! Will update when I get a response. Points were retracted on 8/2/14!!!
