This is a HUGE week at Albertsons!  We have 'Double the Value' coupons for the second week in a row.  Combine the doublers with some $1/2 coupons, or $.50/1 with their '10 for $10' sales and there are over 20 items you can get for FREE at Albertsons now through end of business Tuesday.  For a complete list see this post HERE.
I was so excited that I couldn't sleep well Saturday night. I awoke at 5am with too much adrenaline...so I was at the store at 6am Sunday morning when they opened their doors.  Here is what I purchased:

35 boxes of Emerlad Breakfast on the Go (new item...these are delicious!) $1.99 7.5oz
DOUBLE: $1.00/1 Emerald Products 5/1 Red Plum
or $1.00/1 Emerald Breakfast Printable Coupon
Final Price: FREE!
(I made a special order with my grocery manager for these. If you want more of 5 of an item, try to make an order so you're not clearing the shelves and leaving nothing for others.  If you call Albertsons with your order prior to Thursday night, they can usually accomidate you.  Get to know your grocery manager!)

15 boxes Duncan Hines Family Style Brownie Mix $1.00
DOUBLE $.50/1 Duncan Hines Family Style Brownies from the 4/10 SS
or $.50/1 Duncan Hines Brownies Coupon (print twice!)

After store loyalty card, coupons, and 'Double the Value' coupons......$29.89!!

Since Albertsons only allows 3 'doublers' per transaction, and 3 transactions in a row, then you must go to the back of the line....it took me 30 transactions and 3 hours.  But, there were 2 other ladies doing the same thing so we all started talking as we took our turn in line.  It became quite fun!  I won't need to buy most of these items for a year, YEAH!!

Cheap Coppertone at CVS

coppertone New Coppertone Coupon + CVS Deal
Summer is upon us and it’s time to load up on sunscreen!
Next week at CVS, you can get $8 in ECB back when you buy 2 Coppertone items (excluding sticks and baby).
Assuming most products will start around $10, the math should look like this:
Buy 2 items at $10.00
Use (2) $1/1 coupons
and Get $8 ECB back
Final Price: $5 per item
Will we see sunscreen cheaper than this? Sure! But it’s still not a bad price if you want to just get it out of the way and head to the pool!

CVS Money Maker!

This week at CVS John Frieda Precision Foam Hair Colour is $11.99 and you get back $2 Extra Care Bucks.  Recently you may have received in the mail a coupon for a FREE box (up to $12.99 value).

If you purchase a box and use your FREE coupon, you only have to pay the sales tax and the best part of all is at the end of your receipt, you'll have $2 in ECB's to spend on something else! 

You just got a free box of hair color (which you can always donate) AND you made $2!

The FREE coupon doesn't expire until September 30, so you have plenty time to wait for it to be on sale at another drug store.  
You could potentially make it a bigger money maker IF you are willing to wait and watch!
Not sure how long ago, but Rite Aid had it with $5 UP+ attached to it.  (See above picture.)

The Perfect Mother's Day Card...

...for the bargain seeking Mom!


While I realize this card is neither a 'deal' nor a 'steal' I still felt it appropriate to share it, knowing you all would enjoy its message!

Disclaimer:  A big thank you to Jes for finding the perfect card!

CHEAP Eye Make-up remover at Walgreens

I just checked my Walgreens this morning, and they were out of the eye makeup remover I prefer (they only had the oily 'moisturizing' left....yuck!).  BUT, they said this price is good all month long, as is the in-store coupon booklet.  So, I'll keep checking when I'm there and I'm sure I'll find it.
*If you’re lucky, you might find a $2/1 Almay coupon to use instead of the $1/1 in an in store booklet by the cosmetic counter (see pic below). I haven’t seen these booklets at my store, but if you find it, you’ll actually turn this scenario into a $1 money maker! Be sure to add in a filler to absorb overage.
almay booklet Walgreens: Free or Cheap Almay Makeup Remover

HOT $1/1 Cheez-it

Kellogg’s has released a *HoT* $1.00/1 Cheez-It Baby Swiss Printable Coupon. You’ll need to register or log-in to print.

These sell for around $1.83 at my Walmart, so you can print 2 coupons per account (email address), and pick these up at Walmart for $1.33 per box after coupon. 

$6 off Olive Oil, Walmart Scenario.



Woohoo! You can get a $6.00 off coupon for Olivari Olive Oil on the All You coupon site right now! This coupon can be used on a 51 oz size which you can get at Walmart for $12.48. At this price you are getting olive oil for $0.12 an ounce!

Magnificent Monday....Rite Aid & Kelloggs!

I started my day downtown with my amazing sister-in-law Tabrina, getting my hair done at her salon.  While downtown, I thought to myself, "I should stop by the downtown Rite Aid and see if they have the 'free' items in stock."  (especially since my 2 Meridian Rite Aid's are OUT of all the free items I want).  I stopped and was SO glad I did!  They had everything I was looking for:
I purchased:
4 bottles of Nivea Body Wash ($2.74 each with Rain Check) and I used (4) $3/1 coupons
6 boxes Tylenol Precise heat patches, on sale for $5 each, I used (6) $5/1 coupons
2 boxes Rite Aid brand Q-tips, on sale Buy one get one 1/2 price
1 Loofa (I need one for the body wash!)
I had (2) $4 Up Rewards from the Beauty Tool special last week, I used to both of them totalling $8.
OOP $2.72

Then I got home and found these little beauties in my mailbox!
 
These are $10 prepaid Visa cards from Kelloggs, to be used for Gas.  About a month ago Kelloggs was offering a $10 Prepaid Visa for 10 UPC's of select Kelloggs cereal boxes.  Couple that incentive with an awesome Albertsons sale, after coupons and 'doublers' I paid $.67 per box.  Paying $.67 per box and recieving $1 per box back from Kelloggs means I made $.33 per box.  Since the limit from Kelloggs was 5 cards per household, I made an order for 50 boxes.  (There are only 4 cards shown, because 1 is still in the mail)

We couldn't possibly eat 50 boxes of cereal before they expire, so we hapily donated 30 boxes, along with 9 gallons of milk (Albertsons was also running a 'free milk with the purchase of 3 boxes of cereal' promo at the same time....it was an amazing Albertsons week!) to the City Light Shelter for Battered Women & Children in downtown Boise. 

Total, I profited $16.50 off the 50 cereal boxes, plus we were able to 'share the wealth' with those in need....making for a MAGNIFICENT MONDAY!

Here's a good one at Rite Aid this week:

$.55/1 Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk!


$0.55/1 – Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk – (coupons.com)
Available under zip code 90210


I love having a few of these around for when I get a craving for Carmel Popcorn!  Here is my recipe (graciously given to me years ago by my friend Polly Jensen who is an amazing cook!)

Forever Gooey Caramel Popcorn
1 cup lite corn syrup
2 cups brown sugar
1 stick of butter (1/2 cup)
1 can sweetened condensed milk
3-4 bags of microwave popcorn

Pop 3 bags of popcorn.  Do not just pour the popcorn into a huge bowl, you'll get unpoped kernels that could crack your teeth.  I like to scoop the popcorn out of the bags by hand, only getting the stuff that actually popped.  Place all the popcorn in a giant bowl. 

Combine together butter, corn syrup, and brown sugar in a sauce pan and bring to a rolling boil for 3 minutes stirring often. Remove from heat and add sweetened and condensed milk. Stir together until it has been mix well. Pour the hot caramel over the popcorn, and stir until well mixed and coated.  Let cool and enjoy!!!

My Publix Run ~ Including $50 Gas Card!


First let me remind you beginning today at Publix, when you buy $25 worth of groceries (before coupons are deducted) you can give them the coupon below (no, don't print it from here, its in their sales flyer in the store) and get $10 taken off a $50 gas card.  So my goal was to just spend over $25 so I could qualify for the discounted gas card.
Here's what I purchased:
  • 2 Birds Eye Voila! Meals $2.49 each (two $3 off printable coupons)
  • Pepperidge Farms Stone Baked Artisan Rolls $1.50 ($1 off coupon from SS 4/10)
  • Birds Eye Steam Fresh Frozen Veggies $1.13 (FREE Steam Fresh WYB Birds Eye Voila! Meal from SS 4/10)
  • 2 Colgate Wisp 4 ct. $1.50 each (two $.50 off printable coupons ~ doubles to $1 at Publix)
  • John Frieda Shampoo $5.49 ($2 off (store q) from Publix Green Flyer and $3 off from SS 3/06)
  • John Frieda Conditioner $5.49 ($2 off (store q) from Publix Green Flyer and $3 off from SS 5/01)
  • Purina Tidy Cats Litter $1.20 ($1.10 off printable coupon)
  • Publix Potato Chips $2.59 (today's penny item at Publix ~ $2.58 off store coupon)
  • $50 BP Gas Card ($10 off store coupon b/c I purchased at least $25 in groceries)
My total (groceries only) before coupons was $25.38 ~ see just barely over the $25 mark!
Total coupons (groceries only) was $23.81 so the net for the gorceries was $1.57 + tax!
$50 BP Gas Card was only $40 because I was able to qualify for the $10 off coupon for the gas card!

Total oop (out of pocket) was $42.82

Killer!

P.S. I plan on doing somthing like this again to get another $50 gas card!
