If you’re new to my blog, take a quick minute to read Using this site and bring yourself up to speed on all the coupon lingo and abbreviations.

It’s a good idea to save the grocery and drugstore flyers each week to have on hand & refer to too as you go through the deals! And, if you’re new to couponing in general, check out my Super-Couponing® website for a list of coupon classes (most are FREE!) and easy instructions on how to start using coupons effectively!

A note to my non-Midwest readers: While my weekly deals focus on Illinois stores, the Target, Walgreens and CVS deals apply nationally. And, if you’re shopping at a SuperValu, Safeway, or Kroger store, you may find similar sales to our Jewel, Dominick’s, and Hilander deals. Welcome, and enjoy!

AND… my Super-Couponing® class is now available on DVD! Own the 72-minute video and watch it whenever you like! Click for a video preview & learn how to order!

Unless otherwise noted, GROCERY store deals run through WEDNESDAY of this week,
and the drugstore/general merchandise store deals run through Saturday.

(Also, if you’re new, you may not have some of the coupon books that I refer to for some deals. Some coupon books can be found at the grocery store during seasonal promotions — look for them, as I’ll reference them when applicable. And, at the bottom of each week’s deals, I list free coupon books that you can request to be mailed to you — register for all of them, as I’ll reference them in future weeks too.

Grocery Deals

Starting at Jewel (View weekly ad)

First off, Catalina alerts are printing for a $25/$10 Catalina sale on ConAgra Foods products from 2/6-2/17! This is one of our favorite Catalina sales to look forward to.

The Sunday Jewel ad’s back page also has some store coupons that can be stacked with manufacturer coupons for additional savings. Note that the coupons in the Thursday ad and INSIDE the Sunday ad are MANUFACTURER coupons and cannot be stacked with additional manufacturer coupons.

Polaner Fruit Spreads (10oz.) are on sale for $1.99. Use this $1 printable and pay .99 a jar! This is a GREAT price for Polaner, which rarely goes on sale and offers coupons.

UPDATE: Coupon at this link is now printing for the SUGAR FREE Polaner, which is not on sale for $1.99.

Skippy peanut butter is $1.50 a jar. In the Thursday Jewel ad, there’s a coupon for $1-off-2 that will make this $1 a jar. But if you’ve got the Dominick’s $70 Big Party Playbook, use the $1 Skippy coupon inside and pay .50!

Jewel’s running an instant-savings deal on a variety of beverages — buy 10, save $5. Your best bets here are Vitaminwater and Fuze 18.5-20oz. beverages, which are .75 each when purchased in quantities of 10. There’s a coupon in the Jewel $55 coupon book for $3-off-10 Vitaminwater or Fuze — the same coupon was also sent out as a printable via Jewel’s email list recently.

With the coupon, buy 10 Vitaminwater and/or Fuze. You’ll pay $4.50 for 10, or .45 each!

A few weeks ago, I posted this deal for Kikkoman soy sauces, which at the time was a Target deal. Now, with the addition of a Kikkoman Catalina offer, it’s fun to do at Jewel this week if you didn’t print the coupons last time.

It’s a crazy little deal on 3 bottles of soy sauce and a dozen eggs! Try to follow along, as I said.. this one’s a little crazy…

Kikkoman Soy Sauce is $1.79 this week at Jewel. Print this $1 coupon for your first bottle and this Buy One, Get One Free coupon for the second bottle. Then, print this “Buy Kikkoman soy sauce, get Ponzu sauce FREE” printable too!

To top it all off, clip the “Buy any Kikkoman product, get .55 off eggs” coupon from the 1/23 RP or the February issue of All You magazine.

Ready to put the deal together?

Buy 2 Kikkoman Soy Sauce ($1.79 each = $3.58)
Buy 1 Kikkoman Ponzu Sauce (will be FREE with coupon)
If you want them, also buy 1 dozen eggs ($1.79 at most stores)

Use $1 Kikkoman coupon for the first bottle and B1G1F coupon for the second bottle.
The Ponzu sauce is free with the third coupon, and the eggs are .55 less with the fourth coupon.
Because you’re buying two bottles of soy sauce, each bottle is a qualifier for the third and fourth coupons in this deal.

After all coupons, you’ll pay .79 for THREE bottles of Kikkoman sauce. With the eggs in the deal, pay a total of $2.03 for EVERYTHING.

Here’s where this deal becomes even MORE fun at Jewel this week. The Kikkoman Catalina offer: Buy 2 Kikkoman and get a .75 Catalina; Buy 3 and get a $1.50 Catalina; Buy 4 or more and get a $2.50 Catalina.

With 3 sauces purchased, you’ll get a $1.50 Catalina back, making this a MONEYMAKER if you buy only the sauces, and knocking your total to a whopping .53 for everything if you keep the eggs in the deal.

UPDATED 2:40pm Monday: Readers report Kikkoman Low Sodium sauces are NOT triggering the Catalina.

UPDATE TO THE UPDATE: Some readers report that the Catalina is also printing at Dominick’s AND Meijer, so you can do this deal at any of those stores.

UPDATE, UPDATE, UPDATE: I am receiving LOTS of reports of this deal working AND not working, all from different stores and different varieties of sauces. If you do the deal, I think it’s best to expect to pay .79 for your THREE Kikkoman sauces, and if you do get the Catalina, consider it a bonus..! I do NOT have a UPC list for this Catalina deal unfortunately, though many have asked.

“Okay” cereal deal: Quaker Oatmeal Squares cereal is on sale for $2.49. Use the $1 coupon from 1/30 RP2 and take it home for $1.49…

But, if you have FOUR of this coupon, you’re better off doing it at Dominick’s this week, where it’s $1.99 when you buy 4. Read on…

Nature’s Farm hormone-free milk is a great buy through Feb. 13th! It’s on sale for $3.99 a half-gallon carton, Buy One, Get One Free. Look in the refrigerated case near the milk for tearpad coupons for $1 or $2 off the milk. (Note that these do tend to go fast!)

With two $1 coupons, pay $1.99 for two cartons, or about $1 each!

With a $2 coupon and a $1 coupon, pay .99 for TWO, or about .50 each! GREAT price for hormone-free milk.

“4 for $10” meat instant-savings sale Jewel is running an instant-savings sale on a variety of meats. Buy 4 and the price of each is $2.50. You must buy four to receive the $2.50 price. Here are your products and matchups: Butterball Turkey Bacon (12oz.) – $2.50 – .75 off – 10/31/10 SS (EXPIRES TODAY!) – .55 off – 1/16 SS Jewel Pepperoni (6-8oz.) – $2.50 – $2 off $10 Jewel-brand purchase – Jewel $55 “Savings for a Better You” coupon book (available in stores) Eckrich Smoked Sausage or Kielbasa (13-16oz.) – $2.50 – $1 off 2 – 1/30 SS Jewel Pre-Cooked Bacon (2.1oz.) – $2.50 – $2 off $10 Jewel-brand purchase – Jewel $55 “Savings for a Better You” coupon book Jewel Wafer-Thin Lunch Meat (12oz.) – $2.50 – $2 off $10 Jewel-brand purchase – Jewel $55 “Savings for a Better You” coupon book Johnsonville Breakfast Sausage (12oz.) – $2.50 – $2 off 2 – Thursday’s Jan. 27-Feb. 2 Jewel ad, p. 15 – $1 off 2 – 1/23 SS Shoppers Value Bacon (12oz.) – $2.50 Tennessee Pride Breakfast Sausage Roll (16oz.) – $2.50

My thoughts? The Johnsonville sausage is a very good price. If you pick up another ad in the store, use two coupons and pay $6 for 4, or $1.50 a package! Working the Jewel $2-off-$10 in is pretty good here if you want to an all Jewel-brand deal. The best bet is the sliced lunch meat (turkey, ham, etc.) Buy 4 and pay $8, or $2 per 12-oz. package — a pretty good price for sliced lunch meat. In general, ANY pre-cooked bacon is never going to be a deal, especially at $2.50 for 2.1 ounces.

General Mills “4-for-$1.75 each” instant-savings sale This week, selected General Mills cereals, granola bars and fruit snacks are $1.75 each WHEN you buy in quantities of 4. Note that you must buy 4 to receive the instant-savings $1.75 price. Here are your products and matchups: CEREALS: Cinnamon Toast Crunch (12.8oz.) – $1.75 – .55 off – printable – $1 off 2 – printable, Que Rica Vida, Primavera 2011 (GM Spanish coupon mailer) Cheerios (14oz.) – $1.75 – .55 off – printable, printable – $1 off 2 – printable, Que Rica Vida, Primavera 2011 Honey Nut Cheerios (12.25 oz.) – $1.75 – $1 off 2 – printable, Que Rica Vida, Primavera 2011 GRANOLA BARS: Nature Valley Granola Bars (6-8.9oz.) – $1.75 – .50 off – printable Nature Valley Granola Thins (6oz.) – $1.75 FRUIT SNACKS: Betty Crocker Fruit Snacks (4.5-9oz.) – $1.75 – .50 off 2 – printable, printable

My thoughts? Dominick’s just had the same cereals on sale for the past two weeks on a “Buy 4 and they’re $1.49 each” instant-savings sale, but if you’re brand-new at this, cereals will be $1.20-$1.25/box with coupons. Unless you REALLY need them, the granola bars and fruit snacks are not great prices here — the same fruit snacks are .99 a box at Dominick’s this week, pre-coupon (and were just .19 a box after coupons and Catalinas earlier this month.)

“No Coupon Needed” Deals

Jewel bagged popcorn (32oz. — the kind you pop in a popper or a pot!) is $2.39.

Jewel English Muffins (6ct.) are $1.50 a package.

Remember to use the $2-off-$10 Jewel Brand coupon in the $55 coupon book in the store if you’re stocking up on Jewel brands!

Jewel-Osco information:

Jewel-Osco has a Facebook page. If you have questions directly for corporate, you can ask them there (and they answer promptly!)

Are you on the Jewel-Osco email list yet? Jewel has been making coupons available for many different products over the past few months, and they’re usually store coupons that you can stack manufacturer coupons with too. I’d recommend getting on their list if you shop there.

Coupon books currently found at Jewel:

Value Your Heart – $35 worth of coupons, including one for a free 8-pack of Coke when you buy 3 12-packs

Savings for a Better You – $55 worth of coupons, including a “$2 off $10 Jewel-brand food purchase.” Great for meat and produce!

Jewel meat deals:

• Jewel fresh spiral sliced half ham (bone-in) is .99/lb.
• Perdue chicken drumsticks or thighs are $1.69/lb.
• Jewel split chicken breasts are $1.99/lb.
• Jewel’s running a $4-for-$10 sale on many pre-packaged meats, noted above.
• And, if you have the new $55 coupon book from Jewel, there is a $2-off-$10 coupon for any Jewel brand products inside. If you’re buying Jewel-brand meats during this sale, use the coupon and pay $17.99…

Jewel seafood deals:

• Fresh whole catfish are $2.99/lb.
• Arctic Shores 2lb. frozen medium shrimp are $9.99 a bag. If you printed the $1 off Arctic Shores seafood coupon sent out on the Jewel-Osco email list last week, pay $8.99, or about $4.50/lb.

Jewel produce deals:

• 3lb. bags of yellow onions are .99 – that’s .33/lb! GREAT price!
• 2lb. bags of Farm Stand cello carrots are .99 – that’s about .50/lb., also an excellent price.
• Anjou or Red pears are $1.49/lb.
• Pinata, Jazz or Pacific Rose apples are $1.79/lb.
• If you have the new $55 coupon book from Jewel, there is a $2-off-$10 coupon for any Jewel brand products inside. If you’re buying Jewel-brand packaged produce during this sale, use the coupon and pay $8…

(Anytime meat is under $1.99 a pound (no matter what it is — beef, pork, poultry) it’s a buy in my book, because $1.99 is a cycle low and a good benchmark for meat prices — ditto for most produce. Seafood, by its nature, is more expensive per pound, but a good “buy” benchmark is $4 per pound or less for fish or shrimp.)

Let’s go to Dominick’s (View weekly ad)…

Note to my Safeway shoppers reading from outside Chicagoland: In Chicago, Dominick’s currently accepts expired coupons up to one year past the expiration date, so my coupon matchups for Dominick’s deals will include expired coupons. If an expired coupon matchup is provided, it will be noted with (exp) after the date. Also, in Chicago, Dominick’s does not double coupons (as other Safeway stores do) – if your store doubles, you’ll do even better with many of these deals. Also, in Chicago, previously-available ecoupons (Cellfire, ShortCuts and PGEsaver) have been discontinued. Ecoupons are now available in the “Just For U” section of electronic coupons available at Dominicks.com.

Dominick’s Super Coupons:
These are store coupons found in the weekly Dominick’s flyer, which (in the case of the name-brand products) means they can be stacked with manufacturer coupons for even bigger savings. You can also now load these Super Coupons to your Fresh Values card via Dominicks.com and not have to clip them. Best bets this week?

Kellogg’s Crunchy Nut is part of the deal too. If you’re not using your coupons on the Target deal this week (which would be a BETTER deal than this, honestly) use the $1 coupons from the 1/23 RP and pay .99 a box.

You’ll pay .97 for THREE cards, or about .32 each – a great price for cards!

So, let’s put a deal together. With two $1-off-2 coupons, buy four jars ($6.76.) After two $1 coupons, pay $4.76 and get a $1 Catalina — knocking everything to $3.76 for 4, or .94 a jar.

With one $1-off-2 and two B1G1F coupons ($1-off-2 coupon applies to the first two jars you buy, 2 free coupons apply to the next two jars), pay $2.38 for 4. Then, get a $1 Catalina, ultimately paying $1.38 for 4, or about .35 a jar!

Longtime reader Bluedemon20 notes that many are priced less than their non-organic counterparts this week! And, if you’re on Earthbound Farms mailing list, you may also have $2-off-2 broccoli and produce coupons from them to work in here too.

Note that Meijers in other states are on different schedules. The Illinois Meijers are about a week behind on the sales vs. most of Indiana/Michigan. If you’re in Illinois, these Meijer deals run through Wednesday. If you’re reading from another state, they ENDED Saturday at your store… Confusing? Yes.

AND, if you shop at the Illinois NILES or ORLAND Meijer locations, they haven’t been following the same sale flyer as the oter Illinois Meijers, under the convoluted reasoning that because the stores are newer, people will shop there -without- as many products being on sale. O-kay.

“No Coupon Needed” Deals:

Kroger 20-24oz. loaves of bread, hamburger buns or hot dog buns are $1 each.

Off to Target
(View weekly ad)…

Here’s a Target cereal deal on Kellogg’s Crunchy Nut cereal! It’s on sale through Saturday for $2.50 a box. Target’s site has a very nice Buy One, Get One Free coupon that knocks this to $2.50 for two, or $1.25 each.

But of course, we want to stack some manufacturer coupons in here too, don’t we? The 1/23 RP has a $1 coupon. With one coupon, pay $1.50 for two, or .75 each. Now, because the B1G1F is a STORE coupon, we can technically stack a manufacturer coupon here as well. If you’ve got two $1 manufacturer coupons, here’s a “best-case” scenario:

Buy 2 Kellogg’s Crunchy Nut cereals ($5)
Use two $1 manufacturer coupons ($3)
Use B1G1F Target store coupon. IF your cashier uses the pre-coupon price of the cereal, the register take $2.50 off, and you’ll be down to .50 for TWO boxes, or .25 each… my favorite price for cereal!

However, because this is such an odd stack, cashiers may be inclined to take $1.50 off for the B1G1F. If that happens, you’ll again pay $1.50 for two, or .75 a box. Still cheap.

6-8oz. bags of Kraft shredded cheese are on sale for $2. Target has a $1.25-off-2 store coupon as a printable on their site. Print that, buy two, and also use this $1 printable (print two of those too.)

After all coupons, you’ll pay .75 for TWO bags, or about .38 a bag! I love cheese deals!

Fun little coupon stack! Print the “Buy one Reeses Peanut Butter Cup, Get One Free” store coupon from Target’s site and stack it with the B1G1F manufacturer coupon from the 12/12/10 SS insert. Buy two peanut butter cups and BOTH will be free!

This week, Target has Pepsi product 12-packs on sale for $2.50 each, limit 6. The new Dominick’s $70 Big Party Playbook coupon book has a $2-off-4 manufacturer coupon inside. Use it here and pay $8 for 4 12-packs of Pepsi, or $2 each. Not too bad.

Knorr Side Dishes (rice mixes in pouches) are on price cut through this Saturday for .93 each. Use the $.50-off-2 coupon from 1/30 RP1, buy two and pay $1.36 for two, or .68 each!

Lipton tea bags (16ct.) are priced at $1.19 at most Target stores. With the .60 coupon from the new 1/30 RP1, you’ll pay .59 for the box.

Here’s a “little” deodorant deal (and I do mean LITTLE!) This weekend’s new 1/30 RP1 insert has a coupon for .75 off ANY Degree men’s or women’s deodorant. Target sells travel sizes of each Degree variety in the trial-size section for .97 each. With coupon, pay .22!

Suave travel-size deodorants are also .97 at Target. Use the .75 coupon from 1/30 RP1 and get one of these for .22 too!

No, they’re not free, but that’s very cheap if you like these for traveling… or you’re truly hard-up for a cheap deodorant deal… read on.

So you want a full-size deodorant cheaply? Grab your new 1/30 PG insert and clip the “FREE Secret Deodorant when you buy any Olay bar or body wash” coupon. Head to the fabulous travel/trial size aisle at Target and buy an Olay travel-sized bar of soap for .97. You’ve now qualified for to buy a full-sized Secret deodorant FREE, so take both home for .97!

And, if you do this deal TODAY (1/31) clip the $2 off ANY Olay bar coupon from the 12/26 PG. Use it on your trial-size bar of soap… get that free… AND use the second coupon on the secret. Free Olay soap AND free Secret deodorant… now THAT’s a deal!

If you need a lotion deal, Vaseline Intensive Rescue is $2.97 for the big bottle. Use this $1 Target store printable coupon and stack it with the $1 coupon from the 1/30 RP1 insert. You’ll pay .99!

Purina Beneful 31.1lb. dog food is on sale for $24.99 a bag. The 1/16 SS has a $2 coupon which will drop this to $22.99. But in Thursday’s Jewel ad, there’s a $4 manufacturer coupon for a 15.5lb. or larger bag of Beneful! Target is sometimes “iffy” about taking a manufacturer coupon with another store’s logo on it, but it IS a manufacturer coupon nonetheless. If yours accepts, you’ll pay $20.99 for the 31.1lb. bag, a good price for this.

Deals continuing from previous weeks:

Here’s a little deal on Jet Dry dishwasher rinse agent. Jet Dry sells at Target for $2.59 a bottle. Print this $1.50 Target store coupon and stack it with this .75 manufacturer coupon. You’ll pay .34 a bottle!

There’s also a .40 manufacturer coupon in the 1/9 SS1 insert that will net you more bottles for .69 each after the stack.

UPDATE: Last week some readers reported stores not allowing them to use this coupon on the small bottle under the incorrect assumption that it is a “trial size.” The 4.22 ounce size is right on the shelf next to the two other, larger sizes. If your Target actually argues that they consider the small bottle to be a “trial size,” ask why it is not in the trial-sized bins with the rest of the $1 and $1.50 trial-size items…

Photo taken on 1/28/11 at the Rt. 59 Hoffman Estates Target.

Quaker Easy Express oatmeal cups are .97 each at most Target stores. Use the $1 coupon from February All You and it’s FREE!

In the “Dollar Spot” at the front of the store, Target currently has plastic coupon wallets and letter-size accordion files for $1! I like to buy a few coupon wallets, as they’re cheap, and when they wear out… you’ve got another one on hand, ready to move into :)

Target Notes:

Target has launched mobile Target coupons which you can load to your phone. They are Target store coupons that you can stack manufacturer coupons with. Load coupons here. You can also print these offers by going to www.target.com/save and entering your phone number.

Remember too that you get .05 off your total at Target for each reusable bag you bring and use. If you pay with the Target credit card, you receive another 5% off.

SuperTarget meat deals:

• 80% lean ground beef is $1.99/lb.

SuperTarget produce deals:

• Jumbo avocados are .99 each.

Use the coupon from the new Jewel book for a free 8-pack of Coke when you buy 3 12-packs, and you’re getting even MORE Coke for your $10!

CVS Tip: Remember to always scan your CVS card at the Coupon Center scanner in the store — it prints bonus coupons for you! And, CVS is now advertising a Thursday preview of the coming Sunday’s ad at www.cvs.com/weeklyad, so check in on Thursday…

As always, these deals are guidelines for shopping. I can make no guarantee that these items will be on sale, in stock, or available at your area store. I can also not guarantee your Catalinas will print, your cashier will smile at you while you check out, or that your shopping cart won’t have a broken wheel. But I CAN teach you how to save money :)

And, also, as always, a huge thanks to the many readers who posted and emailed deals that made it into today’s Deals of the Week! We’re all in this together, and I sincerely appreciate everyone who spots and passes along good deals that we can all enjoy :) Thank you… to YOU!

 

* (All You magazine is not a requirement for using the site, but if you like coupons, you will probably really enjoy it. It’s a cheap ($2.49 an issue) magazine that is absolutely filled with coupons each month — typically $50-$100 worth per issue! You can subscribe to All You online and save about $10/year off the cover price. And depending on the values, if you use 2 or 3 coupons alone from each issue, you’ve recouped the cost of the magazine, and you’re on your way to even bigger savings.)
