Deals of the Week for March 26th, 2012

My Jewel (Huntley) also had coupons at the counter for .55 off a half-pound of DiLusso deli chicken.

Here’s a deal on Yoplait Yogurt single cups! The 4-6oz. cups are on sale 10 for $6. Buy 10 and get $1 off in instant-savings!

This double-dips with a national Catalina running on Yoplait cups too — buy 20 and get a $2 Catalina! (Please note that several readers have written reporting that the lactose-free is NOT generating this $2 Catalina though.) So, let’s put a deal together…

The 3/11 SS has a .40-off-6 coupon, or use a .50-off-8 printable.

Buy 20 cups ($12.) Get $2 in instant-savings (now $10.) With three .40-off-6 coupons, pay $8.80. Receive $2 back in Catalinas, making these $6.80 for 20, or .34 per cup!

With two .50-off-8 printables, it works out to $7 for 20, or .35 per cup… still a deal!

UPDATE: CATALINA MAY NO LONGER BE PRINTING. I’ve heard from a few readers that the Catalina is not printing, and I don’t have an end date for this alert…

Birds Eye Steamfresh frozen vegetables (10-16oz.) are on sale for $1. Buy three and use the $1-off-3 coupon from 3/4 RP or a printable (must click red scissors link on right side of navigation bar and register to print.). With coupon, you’ll pay $2 for 3 bags, or about .67 each! Great price for these!

Palermo’s Primo Thin Crust Pizzas (14.5-19.1oz.) are on sale for $7.99, Buy One Get One Free. The new 3/25 SS has a $1 coupon. With two coupons, pay $5.99 for two, or about $3 each!

Or, use this $1-off-2 printable and pay $6.99 for two, or about $3.50 each.

There are a bunch of coupons in this week’s Jewel ad for FREE eggs when you buy various items. From a financial standpoint, the best/cheapest way to get the eggs this week is with the store coupon for Chi-Chi’s Salsa. 16oz.jars and 12-16oz. Snackers cups are on sale for $2 each. Buy two for $4 and get a FREE dozen eggs with store coupon. The 2/12 SS has a coupon for .50 off Chi-Chis salsa.

With one manufacturer coupon, pay $3.50 for 2 jars of salsa and a dozen eggs. With two manufacturer coupons, pay $3 for everything (which works out to $1 each.)

Or, if you’re on Facebook, head over and print a $1-off-2 printable for the same deal…

Athenos Crumbled Feta cheese (3.5-4oz.) is on sale for $2.99. Use this .75 Facebook printable and pay $2.24.

All prices were gathered at the Huntley Jewel-Osco:

Carlita Deal: 16oz. cans of Carlita Refried Beans are on sale for .69; 16oz. jars of Carlita White Corn and Black Bean Salsa are $2; and 15oz. jars of Carlita Salsa Con Queso are $2.50. With the 50% off ecoupon, these prices will all be cut in half if you buy two (.35, $1, $1.25.) The refried beans are the best bet if you’re looking for your lowest out-of-pocket.

WholeCare Deal: 3.5lb. bags of WholeCare Cat Food and 4.4lb. bags of WholeCare Dog Food are both $4.59. After ecoupon, they’re $2.59.

Equaline Deal: Mr. Cataldo and I had fun perusing the aisles for the cheapest Equaline items! (And thanks to him, I believe this is the first deal on enemas I’ve ever blogged…)
– 150ct. Equaline Antacid Tablets (like Tums) are $2.99 – $1.99 after ecoupon
– 18ct. Equaline Tampons are $2.49 – $1.49 after ecoupon
– Equaline Twin Pack Enema Kits are $2 – $1 after ecoupon
– 10ct. Equaline Butterfly Closures are $1.79 – .79 after ecoupon
– 22ct. Equaline Pantiliners are .99 – FREE after ecoupon. (These were on clearance for .74 at Huntley, so… moneymaker!)

Essential Everyday Deals:
– EE Almond Milk (64oz.) is $3.39 – $2.89 after ecoupon
– EE Chewy Granola Bars (10ct.) are $2 – $1.50 after ecoupon
– EE Toaster Pastries (8ct.) are $1.89 – $1.39 after ecoupon

Wild Harvest Deals: This ecoupon is good on FRESH Wild Harvest produce too, which is what I used it on. Love produce deals!

Culinary Circle Deals: I used this ecoupon last week on the CC pizzas, but I noticed this week that many of the CC Artisan Breads in the deli are priced between $3-$4. I like these a lot too and there aren’t a lot of deals on them, so you could score some good bread to go with your cheap DiLusso deli cuts…

Remember that these ecoupons are one-shots, so decide what ONE item from each group you’d like to use them on.

There are a bunch of “Buy 2 Get 1 Free” offers in the weekly ad! Unfortunately no prices are listed, so the prices shown below were gathered at the Huntley Jewel-Osco location. Prices may vary slightly at your store.

* Two-Computer Deal: With access to another computer to print, with three $1 coupons, pay $6.98 for three, or about $2.33 each
* The Best Deal: I wanted to try to work the Buy-36, get-20-FREE coupon into this deal too. At my store, the 36ct. Playtex Sport are $6.79. The best way to do this would be to buy two of these ($13.58.) Use two $1 printables on these two larger boxes (now $11.58.) Use two “Buy-36, get-20-FREE” coupons to make two 20ct. boxes free, and grab a THIRD 20ct. box, which is free under the Buy 2 Get 1 Free Jewel sale. You will pay $11.58 for 5 boxes, or about $2.32 each. This works out to almost what you’d pay with the two-computer deal above, but two of your five boxes are much larger with more tampons inside each box = maximizing the deal.
* UPDATE: The Deal That’s Even Better Than The Best Deal: Do the same “Best Deal” as above, but reader Penny J Pincher writes to look for $3 coupons for the 36-count hanging on the shelf at your store. Use two $3 coupons in place of the two $1 printables. ($13.58 – $3 – $3 = $7.58.) Use two “Buy-36, get-20-FREE” coupons to make two 20ct. boxes free, and grab a THIRD 20ct. box, which is free under the Buy 2 Get 1 Free Jewel sale. You will pay $7.58 for 5 boxes, or about $1.52 each!

“No Coupon Needed” deals:

16oz. Dutch Farms Bacon is $2.99

Doritos or Sabritas (11.5-12oz.) are 2-for-$4 when you buy two. You must buy two to receive this price.

Loaves of Rosen’s bread are on a U Pick 2 special. Buy two 24-oz. loaves and pay $2.39 for both, or about $1.20 each. The ad notes that you must use the provided U Pick 2 bag to receive this price. At my store, the bag was near the bread, and it says “Pick Two And Save” on the front. The bread did NOT ring up correctly – it rang at $4.79 and not $2.39… Make sure yours rings up according to the ad. This is a very good price for Rosen’s, as they have a lot of delicious varieties of deli-type breads too (marble rye, etc.) – Jewel stores are stating that this price and deal was a misprint in the ad, and they are charging $4.79 for both loaves now.

Birds Eye frozen vegetables (10-16oz.) are $1

Plochman’s Mustard (10.5oz.) is $1

Jewel 8ct. Hamburger or Hot Dog Buns are $1

Taste of Home FREE Cookbook, 5-cup Rice Cooker and 12-quart Tamale Steamer P&G Promotion

Jewel is running an “A Taste Of Home” mail-in promotion on P&G products. Buy $25 worth of P&G products in one transaction and receive a 2-piece cookware set and one cookbook of your choice via mail (view ad here.)

The cookware is a 12-quart tamale steamer, a 5-cup rice cooker, and one of the following cookbooks: “Fresh Mexico,” “Latin Grilling,” or “Cocina Cubana.” $25 worth of goods must be purchased in the same transaction, and you must submit a receipt from the same store you found the forms in (must be from Jewel – cannot use a Dominick’s receipt, etc.)

The offer runs through 4/30/12. Look for the forms for this rebate in Spanish/Latino Jewel locations.

The form for this offer is online too on another store’s website. Several readers called the number on the form and were told that printable versions would be accepted.

UPDATE! On 2/11, I received my A Taste of Home package. It contained the rice cooker, the “Latin Grilling” cookbook I chose, and a note stating that due to overwhelming demand, the tamale steamer will not be available until June 2012, so it will ship separately.

Let’s go to Dominick’s… View weekly ad | Load Dominick’s Just For U ecoupons

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 is also offering Deal Match, where you can load price-matching offers from Jewel and Target to your Fresh Values Card. Load these offers at www.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 March 22-28 flyer – “Slam Dunk Savings” on cover:

Are you a Meijer Mperks member? Mperks is a different set of electronic Meijer coupons. They’re attached to your cellphone number, but aside from one text message to activate your account, you do not need to use text messaging to continually use them. Once you register with Meijer Mperks, you log into the Mperks website and click the electronic coupons you’d like to load to your account. Then, when you’re at the checkout, type your cellphone number into the keypad at the register, and your coupons come off automatically.

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 typically haven’t been following the same sale flyer as the other Illinois Meijers.

Here are your Hilander deals (also running at Logli and Schnucks)… View weekly ad | Load “Schnupons” ecoupons

The Rockford-area Logli stores share the same ad as Hilander (Schnucks) now, so these deals apply at the four Rockford-area Logli stores as well. I have had some readers from DeKalb write and ask if these deals will also apply to their store. In looking at both ads, SOME of the deals are the same, but Rockford at times has a Hilander-specific wraparound that isn’t a part of the DeKalb Schnucks ad. Remember too that the DeKalb store does not double coupons.

The current ad is good through TUESDAY, March 27th.

NEW: Schnuck’s has introduced Schnupons — ecoupons for Schnuck’s stores accessible via your smartphone! Click the link to sign up and load them.

COUPONS TO TAKE WITH YOU FOR TRIPLING:

Schnuck’s has such a small ad each week that it’s tough to know everything that’s going to be good in this sale until you get there. These are some coupons you may want to cut and bring, as they’re likely to knock a good chunk of change off these items, no matter what the price may be, if you’re interested in these items.

– .55 off Mentos Gum – 3/25 SS (it’s likely to be free, as it’s probably not priced at $1.65!)

– .50 off Starkist Selects Tuna – 2/19 RP. (This is usually priced around $1.59-$1.69. Tripled coupon will drop it to .09-.19!)

– .40 off Viva Big Roll Paper Towel – 3/11 SS. (This will triple to $1.20, which should take a nice chunk of change out of a single paper towel roll…)

Once again, CVS is running another “Spend $30, Get $10” sale. There are a lot of Easter items in this week! Here are your products and matchups:

Bounty Paper Towels (12ct.) – $10
– .25 off – 3/4 PG

Charmin Toilet Paper (16 double rolls) – $10
– .25 off – 3/4 PG

Duracell Alkaline Batteries (16ct. AA or AAA, 8ct. C or D, 4ct. 9V, or Ultra Power 12ct. AA or AAA) – $11.99
– .75 off – 3/4 PG

Puffs Plus Lotion Tissues (124ct.) – $1.50

BEST BETS: If you need paper products, buy 3 Bounty or Charmin big packs ($30.) Use three .25 coupons for either (now $29.25.) Pay $29.25 and get $10 back. That’s $19.25 for all.

In an all-Bounty deal, $19.25 for 36 rolls of paper towels is about .53 per roll – this is a GREAT price for Bounty!

In an all-Charmin deal, $19.25 for 48 rolls of TP is about .40 per double roll – also a good price for Charmin.

SUNDAY ONLY! Sunshine Cheez-It crackers (7.5-9oz.) are $1.99. Buy two and use the $1-off-2 coupon from 1/29 RP2. You’ll pay $2.98 for two, or $1.49 each!

There are some other spend-this, get-that deals going this week. I thought the “Spend $20, Get $10” on Glade looked good until I saw how high some of the things were priced this week ($9.99 for the Sense & Spray!) so… I passed.

CVS is running a “Spend $10, Get $3” deal on a variety of foods. The best item to go for here is the Bertolli pasta sauce. Bertolli sauces (15-24oz.) are on sale 3-for-$5, or about $1.66 each. The 3/4 SS has a $1.50-off-2 coupon. However, this coupon is LIMITED to two like coupons per transaction.

No worries though – CVS’s spend-this-get-that offers are cumulative on your card. So, to best do this deal, buy six jars ($10.) Split them into two transactions — one with four jars, one with two. Here’s how it looks:

Transaction #1:
Buy 4 jars of Bertolli ($6.66)
Use two $1.50-off-2 coupons (now $3.66)
Pay $3.66

Transaction #2:
Buy 2 jars of Bertolli ($3.33)
Use one $1.50-off-2 coupon (now $1.83)

Pay $1.83 and get $3 back in ECBs.

When it’s all said and done, you’ve paid $5.49 and gotten $3 back. That’s $2.49 for 6 jars, or about .42 each! Great price for Bertolli.

Softsoap Bar Soap (4ct.) is on sale for $3. Buy 3 and get $3 back in ECBs! The 3/25 SS has a $1 coupon. With 3 coupons, pay $6 and get $3 back — that’s $3 for 3, or $1 per 4-pack.

“No Coupon Needed” Deals:

Salma Hayek Nuance cosmetics, hair, body or facial care products are on a “Spend $20, get $10 in ECBs” deal

Palmer or Russel Stover chocolate or white chocolate Easter Bunnies (1.25-7oz.) are .88 each.

CVS Tips: Remember to always scan your CVS card at the Coupon Center scanner in the store — it prints bonus coupons for you!

And, if you haven’t already, make sure your CVS ExtraCare card is registered for the CVS Beauty Club before you do any deals involving beauty products. It gives you $5 in ECBs for every $50 you spend on beauty products, and it is cumulative, meaning you don’t have to spend $50 in one trip. It keeps track for you and will automatically print ECBs on your next visit to the store when you reach a $50 threshold.

Wrapping things up with Walmart…

Policies to know:

• Walmart will price match any competitor’s advertised price. Bring the other store’s flyers with you to the store. While the policy doesn’t require this, it does speed the price-matching along.
   
• With the new coupon policy, Walmart will also accept other store’s STORE coupons with an actual price listed on them. 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 would print a copy and carry a copy of the coupon policy with you if you anticipate any issues.

I do not blog Walmart deals each week unless there is a weekly ad with noteworthy deals. 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.

FREE STUFF:

$1 off any Marcal paper product – 3/11 RP (exp. 4/15/12) – Stores that carry Marcal usually sell single rolls of toilet paper, paper towels, or facial tissue for $1 or less.

FREE COUPON BOOKS:

FREE COUPON NETWORKS:

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.)
