Great deals that end sson!

I have found a few great deals today.

Walmart
If you would like the movie up this is a great way to get it for cheap. I paid 13.98 for both Monsters inc. and Up for the blue ray 4 pk. This is how you do it HERE Since my Pocatello friends don't have a Target I did this at Walmart today. Just make sure that you take the Best buy add in to show them the 18.99 Price. They will match that and they will take the Target coupon also. It will not scan but they should punch in the price manually.

Albertson's
There is a great deal on pie and icecream going on right now. This is how you do it HERE
To top it off if you buy 4 Prego and use the add coupon for.99 and 4 Jiffy and use the add coupon for.99 it triggers a 15.00 catalina. All this came to 23.98 before coupons. I got paid to buy these so check it out.

Sorry we have been moving!

I have not been on here forever, sorry! I have not been couponing lately due to our move and lack of space. Smiths is having a really good deal on the comforts diapers this week they are on sale for 5.97 and there is a 3.00 off coupon found HERE so that makes for some really cheap diapers. I like these diapers as much or more then huggies and Pampers so go get as many as you can!! The computer will only let you do 1 per transaction so you will have to do multiple transactions!

Albertsons doubler trip

Total before coupons $ 25.00
After coupons $19.00

Then I used the catalina's that I got from my last purchases

Total paid $5.50
Total Saved $29.94

Some of you may be thinking what are you going to do with that many? Well I like to buy bulk when they are on sale. It is better to buy more when they are on sale then have to pay full price when you need them. To find the coupons for this deal check the post below, it has links to get to them.

Albertsons 06/10/2009

Total Paid After Catalina's $12.06
Total Saved $56.98

When I first looked at the add I did not think that was this good of a deal. But when you start to add everything up its AMAZING!! I got this info from the Crazy Coupon Lady found HERE

General Mills Promotion
-Spend $25 in participating products and Earn a $10 Catalina
( a coupon good on your next order)
- Must do separate transactions of $25
- Get to $25 before tax and coupons
- The final price on the matchups reflects the promo savings, It's essentially a 40% discount
- You can "ROLL" your Catalina, meaning you can do 1 transaction-
have the $10 Catalina print and then do a 2nd transaction, use the 1st Catalina to pay-
and still get a new Catalina!

- I find it easiest with these kinds of promos to write out each of my transaction
before I leave the house to go shopping.
- Also, I use a separate envelope (for my coupons) for each transaction-
and I write my list on the outside of the envelope

I used the envelope idea and it worked out great!!!

Transaction #1

2 Trix cereal ($2.00)
2 Total Cereal ($2.00)
2 Fiber One bars ($3.00)
1 All detergent ($4.50)
2 Brownie mix ($1.25)
1 frosting ($1.50)
2 chex mix ($1.50)

Total paid before coupons $25.50
Total paid after coupons $19.93

Then the catalina's printed. See story below for what happened. Make sure to do these it seperate transactions of $25.00 so you will get your money's worth of Catalina's.


Transaction #2

1 cocoa puff ($2.00)
1 Golden Grahms ($2.00)
2 Fruit gushers ($2.50)
3 chex bars ($3.00)
2 Fiber One bars ($3.00)
1 Chex Mix ($1.50)


Total before coupons $25.50
Total after coupons $20.60

Then I Used my catalina from my previous transaction. That is where the saving really showed. i got lucky because the catalina machines hate me. It had only printed out a $5.00 catalina and I knew better then that, so I went and talked to the cashier and he told me a story that I knew was not true. So he finally went to the manager and found out what the real problem was. Long story short I got to keep my $5.00 catalina and he gave me a $10.00 one also..
So total paid $ 7.13

Albertsons doubler ideas

I always recommend doing these in multiple transactions.

Transaction # 1
Kraft Cheese are in the mix and math items for 5 for $10.00
5 Kraft Cheese $1.40 = $7.00
5 1.00/1 off Kraft coupons if you can get 3 computers to print them from found HERE
Use 2 double coupons
=tax

Transaction #2
I like to use Smart balance butter Spread so they are in the 4 for $10.00
4 SMart Balance $1.75 = 7.00
Use 1.00/2 coupons found HERE
Use 2 double coupons
=$3.00

Transaction #3
4 Digiorno Flatbread melts in the 4 for $10.00
Use 1.50/1 coupons found HERE
They will not let you use any doublers on these because they are 1.50 and they will only double up to 1.00
=1.00

You can also get angel soft 12 pk Toilet paper for 1.33 by getting 3 for 10.00
Those coupons are found HERE
You have to register to get them. And that is after doubling.

Edge and skintimate are 2 for $3.00 so you can also get them FREE after you use the .75 found in 05/17 and 05/31
Then you double them and you should only have to pay tax

I hope this helps. If anyone has any questions let me know. These doublers and deals are only good until 06/09.

Albertsons 06/03/2009

Walgreens Trip 04/15/2009

So I guess that Walgreens is changing some things up. I had a problem with my toothbrush not printing the RR. They told me that you can not use an RR if you are expecting one back, it won't print. My chap stick printed but not the toothbrush! Has anyone else ran into this yet?

Total Paid: $ 2.92
Total Savings: $22.42

I also got back 3.50 in RR for my next purchase

This was my second and third trip combined. When I had gone my first time I had noticed that they had these yogurts marked down so I paid a total of 25 cents but than I realized that I got paid 50 cents to buy the Yo plait yogurt. So I paid nothing and gained 25 cents.

Got paid 25 cents and got another 3.00 Johnson coupon
Total Savings $21.50











This was my last trip today. It was killing me that I was getting the fiber one bars for 50 cents and the cereal for 1.09. So I had to go back.
