Albertsons Post Cereal Sale

Albertsons is having a HUGE cereal sale this week. It runs March 29-April 7. When you buy one box of participating cereal, it is $2.07. However, when you buy in groups of 2 it is $1.57 a box.

When you buy 5 or more a $5 Catalina prints out (this is what prints by the receipt machine and is used like Albertsons cash). So, you can roll this into your next transaction of 5 cereal, which then produces another $5 Catalina and so on. As long as you keep buying in groups of 5 and then pay, you will keep getting the $5 Catalina. I recommend buying in groups of 6 so you can get the $1.57 price/box. Otherwise you'll get 4 @ $1.57 and one at $2.07.

So, here is a scenario:

Buy 6 boxes @ $1.57 each = $9.42
Use your $5 Catalina = $4.42
Then use (3) $1/2 coupons
Total is $1.42 for 6 boxes = $.24 box

If you don't have any coupons, then buy 5 boxes at a time for the better deal and it equals $.67/box.

You'll have to pay for the first 5 before you get a Catalina to print, but then just roll your Catalina into each transaction (buy 5 or 6, pay, get Catalina, and do it all over).

I know several Albertsons here are getting multiple shipments in this week. I've called about special ordering, but they say they've got plenty on hand. If you don't see what you want, ask and it's probably in the back.

The picture of the "Just Bunches" is so yummy! I bought a couple and I'm getting a bunch more. It's just a box full of the clusters of granola from Honey Bunches of Oats...so delicious!

Kelloggs Cereal and Milk

So I haven't tried this yet, but Albertsons is having a sale on Kellogg's cereal from Wed March 25th - Tuesday March 31st. Not sure which kinds exactly are in the sale, but they are 3 for $5 ($1.67 each). When you buy 3 Kellogg's cereal, you get 1 gallon of milk free on your next shopping order. When you buy 5 cereals, you get 2 gallons. And when you buy 7 cereals you get 3 gallons of milk free on your next shopping trip.

There are coupons out there for $.70 off one Kelloggs cereal and there are also coupons for $1 off one. If you can get a hold of some of those, this will be an awesome deal!

So if you buy 3 of the cereals on sale that makes them $5. Use 3 $1 off coupons so your total is now $2. Then you get a free gallon of milk so your cereal is basically free!!!

IF you were to do 7 boxes of sale cereal that is $11.67. Use 7 $1 off coupons and your total is now $4.67 but you get 3 gallons of free milk.

I haven't tried it out yet, but I'm going to see if this works.

Kmart is doubling coupons up to $2 (you can double any coupon up to $2 to get a $4 value). Check your stash to find out what you have so you can get it for free!!! I'll post what I scored today later.

Go here so you can print a $5 off $50 purchase coupon. You'll have to sign up but then you'll be sent an e-mail to print. It's a pdf file so you can print as many times as you want. Be sure to use this coupon before your others so that it works.

Albertsons Milk

For three days this week (3/15-3/17) Albertsons is having a 3 day sale. Their Shopper's Value milk is 3/$5 (limit 3 per transaction). That 's a pretty good price for gallon milk.

Free Colgate toothpaste

You can get a free tube of Colgate Total toothpaste at Walgreens. Go here to print a $1 off coupon and combine it with a $2.50 off coupon from Walgreens Easy Saver Book (found throughout their store). The Colgate Total is $3.49 each so you can print the coupon twice, and use the Easy Saver coupon (you just need one easy saver, the store will just multiply it as many times as needed). You can get two tubes.

Friday, March 13, 2009

So, I finally figured out my savings from the crazy Albertsons shopping trips a few weeks back. Boy, was I glad when that sale was over!!! I think I have Progresso soup to last a while, and if anyone wants any biscuits....come right on over!

Out of pocket = $103.39
Saved = $900.07
Total savings = 90%

Old Navy Coupons

LinkDon't forget to check out oldnavyweekly.com for your free Old Navy coupons. You can get $50 and $75 off $100 purchase if you're lucky!!! Coupons will be refreshed sometime today...should be soon.
Several stores sell these for $.97 (like Target and Walmart...maybe other too) so you can get up to 16 bars FREE when you print each of these coupons off twice. Some stores won't let you get a product that is less than the coupon, so they will need to manually change the price of the coupon to be less so it will equal the price of the product.

$1/1 Johnson Buddies
$2/2 Johnson Buddies
$2/2 Johnson's Shampoo, Conditioner or Buddies
$3/3 Johnson's ProductsLink

UPDATE on Goldfish

The Goldfish deal is even better. Go to Albertsons and use your coupon by Saturday (that is when it expires) and you'll get them for $.25 each. Refer here to find out how. When you buy them, but in groups of 8. They have a deal at Albertsons this week that when you buy $10 in participating products, you get 300 bonus boxtops that you can send to you school. So, buying 8 goldfish makes it $10, and then use your 8 target coupons and you get 8 bags of goldfish for $2 plus 300 boxtops. Not a bad deal!

Target brand soup - $.27

You can buy Target's brand Market Pantry soup for $.27 when you use their printable coupon here. The coupon can be printed as many times as you want. It is for $.50 off of 2 so you can get them for $.27. They did have some chicken noodle, but that was $1.00 each, so that is not as good as a deal. Most of the cream of chicken, broccoli, mushroom and tomato soups were the better price. Remember you can buy as many as you have coupons for. I can't remember the expiration on this...I think the 28th of March.

Restaurants.com

Restaurants.com is having another good deal. Use the promo MENU at checkout and you'll get 80% off your certificate. A $25 certificate normally costs $10, now you can get it for $2.

I bought a couple of these last week. You just put them in your cart, pay, and then print them from your computer. Just read the fine print before you put them in your cart to understand the requirements. Most of them have to be used on a minimum purchase. Like the $25 certificate has to be used on a $35 purchase so you'll pay $10 out of pocket at dinner...sometimes it has to be used on a $50 purchase. The $10 ones are the ones we usually buy...they have to be used on a $20 purchase. I bought my $10 certificates for $.60.

Strawberries @ Fred Meyer - $1.50

Strawberries are on sale at Fred Meyer this week for $1.50. I've heard they are really yummy!!!

Garnier Fructis - $.99 to FREE @ WALGREENS

Walgreens has Garnier Fructis Hair Care on sale this week for $2.99. There is a coupon in their EasySaver coupon book for $2 off. This book is at the entrance of the store but if you can't see one, the cashier has some. So, you can get them for $.99.

Howver, if you have a MFR (manufacturer) copuon for $1/1 ($1 off 1) then you can stack them together to make it FREE. I bought my coupons here. However, because it's getting later in the week, getting the $1 off coupons may not work to be here in time since the deal sale price goes through Saturday. But you could still go in and get the product with their EasySaver coupon for $.99...still a great price!

The EasySaver coupons are good for the month of March...but the sale price only goes through this Saturday the 14th.

I asked yesterday and a clerk at the LocustGrove/Fairview Walgreens said you don't need multiple coupons from the EasySaver book...you just need one and they'll use it over and over for the number of products you buy.

Gillette Body Wash - FREE

You can get Gillette body wash for FREE at Target or Walmart. The 8oz bottle is $2. The larger bottle is $4, so don't get that one. There was a coupon out in the ads last week for $2 off 1 Gillette Body Wash. This coupon expires on March 31st. I dont' buy the paper, so if I find a coupon I want I buy it off of ebay. You can find this one here. Just make sure that the set of coupons you are buying say "$2 of 1" because there are some that are $2 off 2. Also make sure it says body wash on the coupon. I just bought a set of 20 for $1.42 which included shipping. I usually try to do the 'buy it now' option so I don't have to wait for an auction to end. I also try to not pay more than $1-$2 for a set of coupons, and they pay for themselves once I use them once or twice.

My coupons haven't arrived yet, but these prices are regular prices, so as long as I can use them before the coupon expire at the end of the month I've done good.

Just remember you can use 1 coupon per product...so if you are buying 10, use 10 coupons.


Goldfish Crackers - $.25 each

There is another Target printable coupon for Goldfish crackers. You can print it here. You'll need to sign up, but it's free and easy. Then you can print the coupon as many times as you want. This coupon expires this Saturday March 14th, so use it by then.

Albertsons has a great deal on Goldfish this week. They are $1.25/bag. So, take your printable coupon into Albertson's and buy as many bags as you have coupons for at $.25 each.

**UPDATE** I'm hearing several people say that the Albertsons on Eagle/McMillan won't take more than 2 Target printables. I went yesterday and used 8 with no problems. I did self checkout and the cashier there had to input them. You may try asking before buying so it's not a problem...just thought I'd give a heads up.

Mott's Applesauce - $.22 each

You can get the 6 pack of Mott's applesauce for $.22 at Target. Go here to print Target's printable coupon for $1 off of 1. You can print it as many times as you want. Also print a manufacturers coupon for an additional $.55 off here. Use your back browser to print this coupon twice. You can print it twice from all computers.

You can use both coupons together (stack them) since one is a store coupon and one is a manufacturer coupon (MFR). Also, you can take them to Albertson's if Albertson's has a decent price and Target happens to be out. Albertson's is accepting other stores coupons through the end of March, and then no more.

Here we are...

So, I've done so much deal searching for friends and family, I decided to compile it all in one place. Hopefully this will help anyone out looking for a good deal in and around the Boise area.
