Hey Laura! Did they actually have the Bounty basic paper towel again? My mom and I went last Modnay and they didn't have that kind. But they did have a single roll Bounty that was $1.39. How much were those rolls?

Yep! They aren't the basics... I think that they are a step above, and are all white (which I prefer...)!

They are $1.09/roll, so $.09 after the coupon is doubled.

But BEWARE: my coupons needed to be manually over-ridden by the cashier because they were only giving me $.09 as the doubled price!

You have to be careful with $1/2 types of coupons, the register usually only doubles up to the price of a single items instead of the face value of the coupon!

I meant to post this info, thanks for asking!
