Deals of the Week for July 4, 2011

The Granola Thins are the best to go with here due to the higher value coupons. With four .75 coupons, buy 4 boxes. Pay $7 and get a $5 Catalina and a $2 Catalina! That’s right… FOUR boxes of Granola Thins FREE!

With four .50 Granola Thins printables, buy four boxes. You’ll pay $8 and get $5 and $2 back – $1 for everything!

Or, do a Nature Valley bars deal. With two .75-off-2 coupons, buy 4 boxes. Pay $8.50 and get $7 back – $1.50 for 4 boxes is about .38 a box – SUPER CHEAP!

Note that the original Catalina alerts stated that granola thins were excluded from the “Buy 4, get $2” Catalina, but they have been working since last week.

The weekly Jewel ad has a coupon for 1-cent Hillshire Farm smoked sausage, S. Rosen’s buns and Plochman’s yellow mustard when you buy a $12.99 24-pack of Miller Lite. If you’re buying the beer anyway, it’s worth spending a penny for all of these bonus items.

___________________________________

Hiland Folding Camp Chairs (those canvas kind with the armrests and legs that fold up into a vertical bag) are $7.49 each. (Wal-Mart and Meijer’s ads both have these for $9.88 each this week, so this is a better price if you’re looking for these. Walgreens has them just a bit cheaper this week at $6.99, but theirs don’t have armrests for that price.)

“No Coupon Needed” Deals:

250ct. packages of Homelife Everyday Napkins are $1.99 each.

12ct. packages of Jewel jumbo hamburger buns are $1.99.

Jewel-Osco information:

Jewel-Osco has a Facebook page. If you have questions directly for corporate, you can ask them there.

Are you on the Jewel-Osco email list? Jewel regularly sends out coupons to match with their current sales, and often they’re store coupons that can be stacked with manufacturer coupons!

Coupon books currently found at Jewel:

Celebrate Summertime Fun – coupons for beef, alcohol, and a nice $2 off any Culinary Circle Artisan bread coupon

Fresh Summertime Fun – Blue book with more summertime food coupons

Smuckers Ice Cream – has ice cream topping coupons for $1.25 off and B3G4th Free

Fresh & Fun Celebration – Small book with coupons for $2 off any 1lb. or larger Stockman & Dakota Premium Angus Beef package; $2 off any 1 to 2lb. bag of Arctic Shores shrimp, and $2 off any Hormel Party Tray (all expire 7/15/11.)

Jewel meat deals:

• Perdue fresh chicken drumsticks or thighs are $1.69/lb.
• Hormel Always Tender pork country style ribs are $2.69/lb., but there’s a $1 coupon in the 5/8 SS that will drop the per-pound price a little more.

Jewel seafood deals:

• Swai fillets are $3.99/lb.

Jewel produce deals:

• Nectarines and peaches are .98/lb.
• Vidalia onions are .99/lb.
• 1lb. containers of strawberries are $1.48, limit 3
• Eggplant, yellow squash and zucchini are all $1.49/lb.
• Sweet corn is .22 an ear, limit 12
• Mangoes are .99 each
• Whole seedless watermelons (13-17lb.) are $2.98 each, limit 1

(Anytime meat is under $2 a pound (no matter what it is — beef, pork, poultry) it’s a buy in my book, because $2 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.)

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

Note to Safeway shoppers reading from outside Chicagoland: 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, support for previously-available ecoupons (Cellfire, ShortCuts and PGEsaver) have been discontinued. Ecoupons are now available in the “Just For U / Coupon Center” 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 load some of these Super Coupons to your Fresh Values card via Dominicks.com and not have to clip them. Best bets this week?

In the June 29th issue of the Chicago Tribune newspaper – page 9 of “Good Eating” section:

• There is a $10 off $50 coupon at the top of the page that is valid through 7/6. Definitely grab this if you got it, as there are some great deals this week that you can work it into…
   
• King’s Hawaiian Sandwich Buns or Dinner Rolls are $1.88 each with Super Coupon through 7/6. Use the $1 off Sandwich Buns from the 5/22 SS and pay .88! There’s a .50 coupon for these in the June All You for more $1.38 buns. Or, buy two packages of Hawaiian rolls and use the $1-off-2 from the 6/26 RP. Pay $2.76 for two, or $1.38 per package! GREAT prices for both.
   
• 3-pound packages of Safeway Thick Sliced Bacon are $6.99 each, limit 2, with Super Coupon through 7/6. That’s $2.33/lb., a good price for bacon… and we really like this kind. It cooks up nice and thick and has a good flavor – one of my favorite things I’ve discovered at Dominick’s this year.
   
• 18ct. Lucerne Eggs are $1.99 each, limit 2, with Super Coupon through 7/6.
   
• 2lb. bags of Waterfront Bistro Medium Raw Shrimp are $7.98 each, limit 5, with Super Coupon through 7/6. That’s $3.99/lb., a very good per-pound price for shrimp.
   

In the June 30-July 6 flyer – “Celebrate & Save” on cover:

• Dial 32-52oz. Hand Soap Refills are $2.99 each, limit 4, with Super Coupon. If you go for the largest bottle here, it’s a good price if you’re in need of this. (It is oddly rare to see deals on pump soap refills. The 7.5oz. Dial pump soaps often go on sale for $1, so do the math here if you get 52 ounces… :)
   
• Lysol Disinfectant Wipes or All-Purpose Cleaners (35ct. wipes, 22-32oz. sprays) are $1.69 each, limit 4, with Super Coupon. Use the $1-off-2 coupons for wipes or cleaner from 6/12 SS. Buy two and pay $2.38 for two, or $1.19 each. This is especially a good price for the wipes.

The 6/26 SS has a $1-off-2, but remember that Dominick’s will not allow a coupon to be applied to the free bag. If you wish to use this coupon, you’ll actually have to buy four bags, which isn’t as good a deal.

Here’s a little ice cream deal that you can do if you’ve got an ecoupon for $1 off Safeway Select 1.5qt. Ice Cream to load to your Fresh Values card at Dominicks.com. (I do not know if this ecoupon is available to everyone, but it was available to load when I logged in.) Safeway Select 1.5qts. are on sale for $3.49. Buy one an get a FREE pint of Safeway Select Super Premium Ice Cream or Sorbet. If you’ve got the $1 ecoupon, pay $2.49 for both.

1.5qt. cartons of Breyer’s Ice Cream are on sale for $2.49. Use the $1-off-2 Breyers in the home-mailed version of the Jewel Summertime Fun coupon book (blue cover) and pay $3.98 for two, or $1.99 each! (Again, the Breyers coupon is only in the home-mailed version of the blue Jewel Summertime coupon book –the one in the store does not have it.)

If you’re on Jewel-Osco’s email list, they sent out a $1.25 off 3 printable. Buy three, and with this coupon you’ll pay $6.22 for three, or about $2.07 per carton – again, a decent price.

Deals continuing from previous weeks:

If you have any free 12-pack of Coca-Cola coupons from Coke Rewards, this might be a good week to use them. Dominick’s has Coca-Cola 12-packs on sale Buy 2, Get 3 FREE.

Note that during this sale, Doms tends to jack the price up on their 12-packs (a ridiculous $5.99 each) and the Coke Rewards coupons are usually good up to $4.99. With 2 coupons, expect to pay that $1 difference between the Coke’s price and the coupon. Still, $2 for 5 12-packs isn’t bad!

Dominick’s is running a “Buy 4, Save $4” sale on a variety of cereals. The Kellogg’s prices are in this week’s ad, and they are:

Kellogg’s cereals – Selected varieties are $1.99
– .70 off Corn Pops – printable

AND: Remember that the “Buy 10 Selected Kellogg’s, get $10 Debit Card” mail-in rebate is still in effect! You can send in for up to 5 rebates ($50) per household throughout this promotion, which runs through 12/31/11.

“No Coupon Needed” Deals:

8-inch All-American Split Pies (half cherry, half apple in the bakery) are $2.99 each.
UPDATE! Reader MickeyD writes that the pie “I bought the other day had a coupon attached for $1 off the pie if you buy a Cool Whip. The Cool Whip was on sale for $1.25, so with the coupon I got it for a net of $.25, making the deal a little ‘sweeter’.”

Half gallon cartons of O Organics Milk are $3.49 each.

If you haven’t yet signed up for the “Just For U“ electronic discounts that you can load to your Dominick’s Fresh Values card, you may want to.

Ortega products are all 25% off in the new ad, and if you’re a Meijer shopper, you may remember that this sale comes around fairly often and usually results in some nice freebies!

AND, if you shop at the Illinois NILES or ORLAND Meijer locations, they typically haven’t been following the same sale flyer as the other Illinois Meijers.

Here are your Hilander and Kroger deals (View weekly Hilander ad) …

Nabisco Snack Crackers (Wheat Thins, Triscuits) are $1.99 a box. Buy two and use the $1-off-2 from 6/19 SS. You’ll pay $2.98 for two, or $1.49 per box!

8oz. bags of Wonderful Pistachios are $2.99 each. Buy two and use the $1-off-2 coupon from 6/26 SS. You’ll pay $4.98 for two, or $2.49 each! If by chance you are on that edge of being both a Jewel and a Hilander shopper, as I am on occasion, you might also have the $1 coupons in the 3/17/11 issue of the Jewel Spotlight (in-store magazine that had a $1 coupon for this on the cover that week!) With these, pay $1.99 per bag!

Mt. Olive Pickles are on sale for $1.69. Use the .50 coupon from 6/26 SS, which doubles to $1, and pay .69!

Hilander’s running a big “Buy 10, Save $3” sale as well this week. Honestly, I’m not seeing anything super-stellar here, and this being a holiday weekend… I’m going to pass on doing a full breakout. The Totinos Party Pizzas and Pizza Rolls aren’t bad prices here – .99 each when you buy 10. The 4/17 SS1 has coupons for .40 off 2 Pizza Rolls and .50 off three Party Pizzas. Both of these will double, so .80 off two Pizza Rolls puts you at $1.18 for two, or .59 a box. Buying three Party Pizzas for .99 each with the .50-off-3 doubled to $1 leaves you at $1.97 for three, or .66 per pizza!

Remember that Hilander doubles coupons up to .55 face value every day! You are only allowed to double two of the SAME coupon per day though — additional coupons will ring at face value. (Split your trips if you’re stocking up!)

Readers outside Illinois will want to check with their local Kroger or Kroger-affiliated stores to determine how they handle coupon doubling.

For example, a Dominick’s store coupon advertising “.99 Ragu Pasta Sauce” would be accepted. A Walgreens store coupon advertising “2/$1 Morton’s Salt” would be accepted. (A Target store coupon for “$2.50 off Huggies” would not, because it does not show the actual selling price of the item.)
   
• With the new coupon policy, Walmart will also accept competitor’s Catalina manufacturer coupons. You can get a Catalina for $1 off Snuggle and use it at Walmart.
   
• Walmart’s new coupon policy specifically addresses coupon overage. It says “Coupons may exceed the price of the item. Change may be given or applied toward the cost of the basket purchase.” I have heard from one reader who used a $3 Register Reward on a $2.49 copy of All You magazine and DID receive change, in cash.
   

I would print a copy and carry a copy of the coupon policy with you if you anticipate any issues.

Will I blog Walmart in its entirety each week?

I will not be blogging entire writeups for Walmart each week. Every store location’s regular prices are different, and Walmart does not issue a weekly ad every week. I’ve listed Walmart at the end of each week’s Deals writeup, because if you see any deals above that you want, you’ll likely also be able to do them at Walmart.

However, if there IS an ad with noteworthy sales or I’m aware of great coupon matchups, you’ll find those here too.

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: If you like coupons, you will probably really enjoy it. It’s an inexpensive magazine ($2.49 an issue) that is absolutely filled with coupons each month — typically $50-$100 worth per issue! Subscribing via the pink banner on the right drops the price to $1.67 per issue. 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.)
