A big welcome to our Super-Couponers from this past week’s classes in Sugar Grove, Prospect Heights, Crest Hill and Hampshire! And thanks for bearing with me posting the deals a couple hours behind schedule today. Yesterday was incredibly busy as I spent part of the day with the editor of my Super-Couponing class video & have been going over the first cut… and the night was spent teaching Super-2 to a very enthusiastic Hampshire crowd! (Sometimes my schedule truly does get the better of me… but now, it’s time for deals!)
If you’re new to the site, take a quick minute to read Using this site and bring yourself up to speed on all the coupon lingo and abbreviations. Unless otherwise noted, grocery store deals run through Wednesday of this week, and the pharmacy deals run through Saturday. And, if you’re new to couponing in general, check out my Super-Couponing website for a list of FREE coupon classes and instructions on how to start using coupons effectively!
Starting off, I’m going to take a minute and talk about printable coupons! People often ask me if I print ALL of the printable coupons that are new each week at Coupons.com, SmartSource.com and RedPlum.com. I don’t print them all, by any means, but I DO look at each and print the coupons for products I like and use regularly. And this week, what a surprise… TONS of Kraft coupons, for everything from cheese, to bacon, to salad dressing and mayo. We don’t often see high-value printables for Kraft, so if you like these things, print them now! :)
Kicking this week’s deals off at Jewel… Dannon Activia yogurt is on sale for $2 a 4-pack. Use the $1 coupon from 5/10 SS and/or 3/1 SS and take these home for a buck! Anytime yogurt is under .35 a cup, it’s a good price… and this is just a quarter!
If you like the Dannon Danactive smoothies too, they’re also cheap! They too are $2 a 4-pack, and with the $1 coupons also in 5/10 SS and 3/1 SS, you’ll be taking 4 of these home for a dollar as well.
Still at Jewel, Kraft salad dressings are $1.67 a bottle. With the $1.50 coupon from 5/10 SS, they’re .17! Even if you’re not a salad eater, many varieties make great marinades for grilling… and we’re definitely heading into grilling season! Pick up another with these $1 coupons and your additional bottles will be just .67.
If you printed the B1G1F Purex laundry detergent coupons about three weeks ago from Coupons.com… Purex is currently B1G1F at Jewel through May 25th. Use your coupons during this sale and take home 2 bottles for FREE!
And, before we leave Jewel, my female readers (and perhaps some of the men… hey, who am I to judge?) will enjoy this deal on Max Factor makeup! Max Factor is on sale 30% off in this week’s ad, and three-color eye shadows are $3.70 each. Max Factor is also $1.50 off on Avenu (limit 2 per visit.) Stack that with the $2 off Max Factor coupon from 5/10 RP… and you’re taking these eyeshadows home for a mere .20 each!
Over at Meijer, did you notice that their MealBox printable coupons are now STACKABLE? When Mealbox first came out, you could stack these Meijer store coupons with manufacturer coupons. Then, they stopped allowing stacking… but guess what, stacking is back! It’s a great time to be a couponer, because stacking increases our savings so much…
… and this week, Kraft Miracle Whip and Kraft mayonnaise are both $2 each. Print a MealBox coupon for $1 off, and stack that with the $1 Kraft coupons from 4/26 SS or Coupons.com and take this home for FREE!
Still at Meijer, Oscar Mayer hot dogs are $1.25 a pack. Buy 2 packs… and get them really cheap after this coupon stack! Use the MealBox coupon for $1 off 2 stacked with the $1 off 2 manufacturer coupon from 5/10 SS… and take these home for .50 for 2 packs, or a quarter each!
Note that Meijers in other states are on different schedules. The Illinois Meijers are about a week behind on the sales vs. Indiana/Michigan. If you’re in Illinois, these Meijer deals will start on THURSDAY, May 14 and run through next Wednesday. If you’re reading from another state, they’re running through Saturday. Confusing? Yes. This is why I don’t blog too many Meijer deals… but these are good ones!
Over at Dominick’s, there’s a good deal going on juices! Buy 5 and save $5 instantly. Juices in the deal…
CapriSun – $1.49 when you buy 5
Mott’s Apple Juice -$1.49 when you buy 5
Langers – $2.49 when you buy 5
Ocean Spray- $1.99 when you buy 5
V8 – $1.99 when you buy 5
V8 Fusion Langers $-2.49 when you buy 5
Keep in mind that we have to buy 5 (can mix and match) to get the post-$5 prices, or they’ll be $1 more each. Of course, we can use coupons with these too…
$1 off CapriSun Sunrise: 4/19 SS
$1 off 2 Motts: 8/10/08 SS
$1 off Ocean Spray: 1/11 RP
$1 off V8: Coupons.com, SmartSource.com and RedPlum.com.
$1 off V8 Fusion – 4/19 SS
$2 off V8 Fusion
So, you could do this…
Buy 2 V8 Fusion
Buy 3 V8
Before coupons, but after buy-5 $5 instant savings: $10.95
Minus 2 $2 Fusion coupons and 3 $1 V8 coupons – $5.95!
That’s just about $1.23 a bottle! Yum!
Still at Dominick’s, the cheap ice cream deal continues! Buy 4 of participating ice creams and get a $5 Catalina off your next order.
Ice creams in the deal (most priced at $3.50-$3.99:
Haagen-Dazs 14oz. ice cream tubs and ice cream bars – $3.50
Edy’s 1.5 qt. tubs
Edy’s Dibs
Edy’s fruit bars
Nestle Drumsticks
Eskimo Pies
Skinny Cow frozen treats – $3.99
(full listing is in this week’s Dominick’s ad as well.)
And, the coupons you can use…
4/26 SS – $1 off 2 Haagen-Dasz
4/26 SS – $1 off 2 Edy’s Dibs or Edy’s fruit bars
4/26 SS – $1 off 2 Nestle Drumsticks or Eskimo Pies
4/26 SS – $1 off 2 Skinny Cow
$1 off Haagen Dasz – Catalina from previous LW deal if you bought Starbucks
$1 off Haagen Dasz – found on tearpads at 7-11 and Jewel Express freezer cases
Since most of us are sitting on $10 Catalinas from the Living Well deal last week, this could be good ways to spend them if you don’t need anything else!
And, while you’re at Dominick’s, you may be interested in this coupon for a FREE pint of strawberries with a $10 purchase. Free is good!
Over at Walgreens, there’s more free stuff, as usual…
Colgate MaxWhite Toothpaste is $2.99 – buy it, and get a $2 Register Reward. Use the $1 coupon from 4/26 SS or May All You and make it FREE! The same deal is running on the MaxWhite toothbrushes too. Be aware though that you can only get one Colgate RR per transaction, so don’t buy both the toothpaste and the toothbrush at the same time.
Iceland Health fish oil capsules are $8 with an $8 RR. FREE too!
Looking for a diaper deal? While the ultra-cheap deals come around once in a blue moon (and we jump on them whenever they hit!) the “not so bad” diaper deals come around a lot more often. Wags has their store-brand diapers on sale for $8.99, B1G1F. At the pharmacy, grab a free $50 coupon book (it’s a giveaway to get people interested in their prescription program, but you do not need to be a member of the program to get the book) and inside is a $2 off Wags diapers coupon. If you’ve shopped Wags frequently, you know these coupons will automatically take $2 off each item purchased… bringing your total to $4.99 for 2 packages, or about $2.50 each! As many of you know, my youngest is a Wags diaper wearer (and will continue to be until he potty-trains or I run out of them..!) They’re very comparable to Huggies in style and quality.
Over at CVS, Schick Quattro women’s razors are super cheap! They’re $8.99 with $4 coming right back to you in ECBs. Use the $4 coupon from 4/26 SS and pay just .99 for your razor…
And, keep that mouth super fresh with cheap mouthwash too. Crest Pro-Health Enamel Shield mouthwash is $3.49 with a $2 ECB. Use the $1 coupon from 5/3 PG and you’ll pay just .49 for this!
FREE stuff:
Kroger shoppers: FREE reusable shopping bag
Everyone else :) FREE Kraft reusable shopping bag
I am really trying to use more of these. After the Earth Day promos in April, and the free bag coupons from Dominick’s, I’ve amassed quite a collection already. Who doesn’t love free bags?
FREE one day pass to Sam’s Club through May 25
FREE Home Made Simple coupon book Register for a free book of coupons – all P&G products, and these books typically contain a coupon for a FREE bottle of Cascade Crystal Clear too.
FREE tiny lunch. Print this coupon for a free pulled pork sandwich at White Castle!

Just wondering, my Wags ad (hampshire trib) shows the Colgate Max White on sale for $2.99 w/a $2 reg receipt; using the coupon makes it free. Did I miss something on the moneymaker part???? (Love those mm’s!!)
jjohnson says
Till tomorrow at Meijer Kraft BBQ sauce is 5/$5 – coupons.com has $1 off
julie37 says

I went to Walgreens today to do the buy 1 get 1 diapers and was searching throughout the store for the Easy Saver booklet. There weren’t any! When I brought my diapers to the counter and asked where the Easy Saver Prescription booklets were the manager said they no longer had them and they were no longer going to be doing them.
He made me feel bad as if I didn’t know what I was talking about when I explained that there was a coupon for $2 off. Also, the diapers all had stickers on them that said save $2 on 2. I explained that I should be getting my $2 off the 2 packages of diapers I was buying and the manager said that wasn’t the case because the retail value of getting one for free was more of a savings than the $2 off. In the end, he gave me the two packages of diapers for $6.99 instead of the $8.99, but I left feeling humiliated and was made to feel as if I was trying to cheat Walgreens!
esther says
I was wondering if the ad states to use $10 on a particular brand, does that mean the total needs to be $10 after using the coupons? I tried to buy $10 worth of Colgate toothbrushes at CVS today, I was $.04 short of $10 after using coupons, so it didn’t give me the reward bucks back. Is that a standard rule for any shopping center? Just want to make sure so I’m better prepared next time. Thanks!!

Regarding the “….and this week, Kraft Miracle Whip and Kraft mayonnaise are both $2 each”, I just went to Meijers in Bolingbrook and the Miracle Whip and Mayonnaise were not $2. Do the prices differ from store to store?
TinaWalker says
not have th Max Factor on Avenu.
I have a $2 Revlon on Avenu, no Max Factor
Carli says
Indiana Meijers (and I am sure IL starting on Thursday) have the 16 oz Kraft Salad Dressing for $1.58. Use the Meijer Mealbox Coupon for $1 and stack that with the $1 Kraft printable = 42 cents profit per bottle. Enjoy.
jennilooger says
Are you sure this is a mouthwash? When I went to CVS today, I couldn’t find it. I am wondering if it is a toothpaste…
Theresa1097 says
and your additional bottles will be just .67. ?? In this statement above, it appears you can buy MULTIPLE bottles of dressing for just .67. How? I could only print ONE coupon for $1.00 off. thank you!
glamorousmunky says
Edy’s 1.5 qt. ice cream tubs are now BOGO at Dominick’s. So Buy 2 Get 2 free and still get a $5 catalina! Wasn’t sure this would work but I tried it and it did!
JSKMommy says
After visiting 3 Walgreens, I finally found one that had the coupon book at the pharmacy and they knew what I was talking about! The coupon worked at this particular Walgreens; however, I tried the coupon again at a new Walgreens and they wouldn’t accept the $2 off coupon because it says on there not valid with any other offer! Therefore they would only honor the buy one get one price.
newbie2couponing says
You should have South Beach dressing in your Avenu–mine is $1 off. Pair it with the $1 IPs from this week or the $1.50 Qs from the paper & get paid to take it home!!! Limit is 2 per visit.
