Deals of the Week for May 28, 2012

Hello, Super-Couponers! Happy Memorial Day and welcome to another week of great deals! Today I’m thinking of all of our Armed Forces fighting for our freedom, as well as the veterans who have served and those who have given their lives for our country. And, as I write this, I’m on a wonderful three-generation camping trip with my family — it’s been a fun few days of cooking over a fire, hiking, fishing, impromptu grandparents/grandchildren water fights and, of course… aircard wi-fi in the woods!

Want to learn to save with coupons? Attend one of my live Super-Couponing workshops, or enjoy them on DVD and learn in the comfort of your own home! There’s no faster way to learn to coupon, and in one hour, you’ll change the way you shop… forever! Next week’s live Super-Couponing workshop is taking place in Hinckley, Illinois and Oak Park, Illinois!

As always, it’s time for Deals of the Week. I’ve got all the best supermarket and drugstore deals of the week written just for you… all in one place, on one page! As always, grab your scissors and coupon inserts, and get ready to start clipping this week, as bunches of bargains and freebies are heading your way!

Many are FREE, and you’ll learn how to cut your grocery bill in half!

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 terminology and abbreviations.

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

AND… my Super-Couponing® class is available on DVD! Own the 70+ 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, throughout the year, companies issue free coupon books that you can request to be mailed to you — register for them if you’d like, as I’ll reference them in future weeks’ deals.

“Deals of the Week” is written assuming you are using the inserts from the Chicago Tribune (or, if reading from outside Chicagoland, the largest newspaper serving your market area. That largest paper has the most, highest-value coupons. The content, coupons, and dollar amounts of the coupons in the RedPlum and SmartSource inserts differs by paper, so to coupon effectively, it’s best to subscribe to the paper that contains the highest-value coupons.)

 

Looking for deals and discount codes for Chicago Tribune home delivery?
They are now offering discount subscription codes for MULTIPLE newspapers to the same address! (Link opens in new window.)

Grocery Deals

Starting at Jewel-Osco… View weekly ad | Load Jewel Avenu ecoupons | Load SavingStar ecoupons

IMPORTANT JEWEL-OSCO NOTE: All Jewel locations are in the process of updating their cash registers to a new system. If your store has updated to the new registers, and you are using TWO coupons on a Buy One, Get One Free sale, the register is currently scanning the second coupon as $0.00. The register will not beep and you will have no way of knowing your coupon’s value did not get recognized unless you are watching closely. Jewel is working on a solution to this problem and I have a response from corporate here indicating that their two-coupons-on-a-B1G1F policy has NOT changed. Watch your registers.

RedGold Diced Tomatoes With Chilies (10oz.) are on sale for .50. Use this .50 printable and pay… nothing! They’re FREE!

Essential Everyday Mustard (12oz. specialty, ad shows spicy brown and dijon) is on sale for $1.29. Use the $1 coupon from the “Fresh Summertime Fun” book and pay .29!

Here’s a deal on Ocean Spray and Betty Crocker Fruit Snacks! 4.5-9oz. fruit snacks are on sale for $1.49 each when you buy 4 boxes. (You must buy four to receive this price!) Here are your matchups for this deal:

– $1 off Ocean Spray fruit snacks – printable
– $1.10 off 2 Ocean Spray fruit snacks – printable
– .50 off 2 Betty Crocker fruit snacks – printable

With one computer, print two $1 coupons and one $1.10-off-2. Pay $2.86 for four boxes, or about .72 each!
With two computers, print four $1 coupons. Pay $1.96 for four boxes, or .49 each!

If either of these coupons hit their print limits, you can substitute the .50-off-2 printable for the Betty Crocker… but the deal won’t be quite as sweet.

Fisher Trail Mix (3.5-4oz.) bags are on sale for $1. Buy four and use the $1-off-4 from the 4/29 SS. You’ll pay $3 for four, or .75 each!

Kraft Jet-Puffed Marshmallows (10-10.5oz.) are on sale for .99. Buy two and use the .50-off-2 from the 5/6 SS. You’ll pay $1.48 for two bags, or .74 each!

King’s Hawaiian Hot Dog or Hamburger Buns (9-9.6oz.) are on sale for $2. Use the $1 coupon from the 5/20 RP or June All You and pay $1!

The 5/13 SS also has a coupon “Buy Kings Hawaiian buns AND Wholly Guacamole Dip and get a free pound of ground beef up to $3.50” coupon. Depending on the price of the Wholly Guacamole this week, and whether you want the beef too, this could be a good item to work in as well.

WholeCare Pet Cat Litter (10lbs.) is on sale for $2. Use this $1 SavingStar ecoupon and it works out to just $1!

Dean’s Dips (12-16oz.) are on sale for $2 each. Buy two and use this .85-off-2 printable. You’ll pay $3.15 for two, or about $1.58 each. Reader Lina wrote that there is also a $1 Catalina printing when you buy two! With this, it works out to $2.15 for two, or about $1.08 each!

One of the hottest deals this week is on Coca-Cola and Pepsi product 12-packs! They’re on sale 4-for-$9 ($2.25 each) limit 8, with a $20 additional purchase at Jewel-Osco. Where this deal becomes even more fun is if you’ve got manufacturer coupons for either of these! If you have a Centrella-associated grocery store in your area, check the store’s ad for a $2-off-4 Pepsi 12-packs manufacturer coupon and a $3-off-4 manufacturer coupon.

With the Pepsi coupon, you’ll pay $7 for 4 12-packs, or $1.75 each!

With the Coke coupon, you’ll pay $6 for 4 12-packs, or $1.50 each!

Hillshire Farm Smoked Sausage (13-14oz. ropes or links) are $2.50 each. Use this .55 printable and pay $1.95!

Essential Everyday or Jewel Bacon (16oz.) is $3.99. For Essential Everyday, use the $1 coupon from the “Fresh Summertime Fun” book and pay $2.99.

The weekly Jewel-Osco ad has a store coupon for a Huggies Value Pack Diapers making them $26.99. The ad shows size 4s with 117 diapers inside.) Here’s a $1.50 printable to drop that to $25.49.

SavingStar is also offering a “Spend $35, Save $5” ecoupon offer which is cumulative – you don’t have to buy $34 worth in one trip. This runs through 6/13.

I’m skipping the “Spend $10, Get $3 or Spend $15, Get $5” because it’s after coupons, and the prices are kind of high on most of these things. I was hoping the Suave lotions would be included (so we could use the B2G1F coupons that are current) but… they’re not. Those are looking better for Walgreens this week though…

“No Coupon Needed” deals:

12oz. Jewel Buns (hamburger or hot dog) are .99 each

Kraft American or 2% Singles (10.7-12oz.) are $1.77

Beer deal: Buy a 24-pack of Miller or Miller Lite (12oz. cans) and get a package of Oscar Mayer Meat or Turkey Franks, S. Rosen’s 8ct. hot dog buns, and Plochman’s mustard (10.5oz.) for .01!

Deals continuing from previous weeks:

The 5/3 Jewel-Osco flyer advertised a FREE $25 Jewel-Osco gift card with new or transferred pharmacy prescription, and any $25 Gift Card Mall gift card with 3 additional prescriptions. Good deal! This one runs through 8/31/12.

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, 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 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 Dominick’s Coupons to your Fresh Values card via Dominicks.com and not have to clip them. Best bets this week?

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.

Drugstore Deals

Heading to Walgreens (View weekly ad)…

IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT THE WALGREENS AD: Walgreens is no longer putting its entire ad in the paper newspaper version. There are now online-only ad pages that you can look at via this link: View weekly ad

When applicable, I will be noting the online-ad-only deals with the “Bonus Buys” icon shown at right. This is the same icon Walgreens is also using in their online-only ad pages.

Tecnu First Aid Gel (2oz.) is on sale for $7. Buy it and get $7 in Register Rewards, making it FREE!

Youtheory Collagen (120ct.) is on sale for $7. Buy it and get $7 in Register Rewards, making it FREE!

Ecotrin Aspirin (45ct.) is on sale 2-for-$3.00. Buy two and get $2 back in Register Rewards! Use two $1.50 coupons from the 5/6 RP. You’ll pay… well, nothing but tax, and get $2 back, getting 2 free Ecotrin and MAKING $2 on the deal! Here’s a $1 printable too if you don’t have the insert coupons to do the deal…

(And, as pretty much every Walgreens in town is going to be selling out of Ecotrin this week, why not take the Wags ad to Walmart? You won’t get the Register Rewards, BUT they can match the $1.50 price for you, you can use your $1.50 coupon, and you’ll still get it free. Sweet!)

Skintimate (6-7oz.) is on sale for $2.99. Buy it and get $2 back in Register Rewards! Use the .55 coupon from 5/13 SS or 4/22 SS. You’ll pay $2.44 and get $2 back, making this .44!

NOTE that as of Sunday, readers are reporting that the deal does NOT work on the variety shown in the ad – it must be a variety of Skintimate with LOTION, so make sure you get one of those.

Lindsay Olives (5-6oz.) are .99 with store coupon. Buy two and use the $1 off 2 coupon from the Jewel-Osco “Fresh Summertime Fun” coupon book. You’ll pay .98 for two, or .49 each!

Popcorn, Indiana bagged popcorn (7.25-10.5oz.) is on sale for $1.99. Use the $1 coupon from the 3/25 SS and pay .99!

Here’s a deal on Coppertone Sport sunscreen! The ad shows 6-8oz. Coppertone sprays and lotions on sale for $9.79. Buy two and get $1 bac in Register Rewards! The 5/20 SS has a $3-off-2 Coppertone coupon, which is your best coupon to use for this deal. The same insert also has a $1 coupon, and you can print one too.

Now, to really make this deal shine (no sun-pun intended) you’ll need to look for a store coupon book called “Skin Care Guide.” (It’s got a pink horizontal stripe on the cover with a photo of a woman applying sunscreen.) Inside, you’ll find a $1 store coupon for Coppertone Sport.

Ready to put the deal together? Grab two Coppertone sport ($19.58.) Use your $3-off-2 manufacturer coupon and your $1 store coupon. The store coupon will take a dollar off for each bottle, leaving you paying $14.58. You’ll get $10 back in RRs, making that $4.58 for two, or $2.29 each!

Here’s a deal on Suave! Buy $10 worth of participating Suave and get $3 back in RRs. The best item to go with here are the Suave Lotions (18oz.) They’re on sale for $3. There’s also a Buy 2 Get 1 Free coupon in the 5/20 RP. So, buy three of those ($9) and then add a $2 Suave Body Wash (12oz.) as a filler to get us over $10.

Now we’re at $11. Use the B2G1F coupon (now $8.) Pay $8 and get $3 back. That’s $5 for 4 items, or $1.25 each.

There’s a new monthly Register Rewards offer for AARP Members. Through 6/30, spend $20 in a single purchase and get a $5 RR. This offer is limit 1 per AARP card.

Walgreens store coupon deals:

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…

At my Walmart in Huntley, Sun Drop 2-liters are $1. Use the $1 coupon from 5/6 SS and get them FREE!

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.

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.)
