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 Schnucks store, you may find similar sales to our Jewel, Dominick’s, and Hilander 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, you do need to be getting the paper with the “best,” highest-value coupons.)

Jewel is running a “Buy 10 for $10, get the 11th FREE” sale (like Meijer often does!) However, nothing here really stands out as a good deal at all to me. I wish there was more to write about with this one.

“Buy 5, Save $5” Instant-Savings Sale! Buy any 5 of the following cheeses and save $5 instantly! Prices shown are after $5 instant savings. You must buy 5 to receive these prices. Kraft American Cheese Singles (10.7-12oz.)- $1.99 Kraft Grated Parmesan Cheese (8oz.) – $2.99 Kraft Shredded Cheese (5-8oz.) – $2.19 Kraft Velveeta (32oz.) – $4.99

23-25oz. jars of Jewel Applesauce are $1.50 each

Orv’s Tasty Toppings Pizza (15.8-17.1oz) are $2 each

Jewel-Osco information:

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

Jewel meat deals:

• Split chicken breasts or thighs are .99/lb.
• Chicken drumsticks are $1.29/lb.
• 16oz. Perdue ground chicken or turkey burger patties are $3.99, Buy One Get One Free – that’s about $2/lb.

Jewel seafood deals:

• 32oz. bags of Ocean Market Tilapia or breaded Tilapia are $6.99 – that’s less than $3.50/lb.
• 4oz. single portions of salmon, tilapia, and other varieties of fish are $1 each – that’s $4/lb.

Jewel produce deals:

• 2lb. bags of Farm Stand carrots are $1.29 – that’s about .65/lb!
• Hard shell squash is .99/lb.
• Gala apples are $1.29/lb. ($1.79 for organic)
• Braeburn or Fuji apples are $1.79/lb.
• Organic cauliflower or broccoli is $1.99/lb.

(Anytime meat is under $2 a pound (no matter what it is — beef, pork, poultry) it’s a buy in my book, because $2 per pound is a cycle low and a good benchmark for meat prices. This is also true for most produce. Seafood, by its nature, is more expensive per pound, but a good “buy” benchmark is $4 per pound or less.)

UPDATE: With beef prices (commodities) slated to rise, some reader have emailed to ask if I would also blog the $2.49 or less meat deals. I will now be including meat deals up to $2.49/lb. in weekly writeups.

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. Try it 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 October 27-November 2 flyer – “Hot Deals Just For U” on cover:

• Huggies Jumbo Diapers or training pants are on sale for $8.99, limit 4, with Super Coupon. Use the $1.50 coupon from 10/23 SS and pay $7.49. IF “Little Movers” Slip On variety are included, use the $3 coupon from 10/23 SS and pay $5.99!

– Sara Lee Deli Meats – $3.99/lb. Use the $1 off 1/2-pound coupon from 10/2 RP and pay $2.99/lb., or about $1 for a half-pound!

LAST-MINUTE HALLOWEEN CANDY DEAL: Dominick’s has 10-12.5oz. bags of Hershey, Mars, or Nestle fun-size candy bars on sale for $2 each when you buy four. (If you don’t buy four, they’re $2.50 each.)

Coupons available:
– $1.50 off Mars – printable

– $1.50 off 3 Mars (M&Ms, Snickers, Milky Way, 3 Musketeers, Twix) – 10/9 RP, 9/25 RP
– $1 off 2 Nestle – 10/16 RP, October All You
– $1 off 3 Hershey’s (Reeses, Kit Kat, Almond Joy, Mounds) – 10/16 SS

With the $1.50 Mars coupon, you’ll pick up Mars candy bars for just .50! With the $1 coupon, you’ll take home Hershey’s for $1! With the $1.50-off-3 or $1-off-2 coupons, you’re looking at $1.50 per bag here. With the $1-off-3, you’ll pay $1.67 each.

This sale is only running through 10/31… and so are the insert coupons.

How about a FREE bag of Fresh Express Spinach? 9-ounce bags are on sale for $1. Look in the produce department on displays for the “Dominick’s Fresh Ideas” newsletter (it is the October newsletter, so see if you can find it before they put the new November ones out.) The newsletter contains a coupon for $2 off 9oz. Fresh Express Spinach, making this FREE!

If you cannot find the newsletter, reader Jewelover points out that you can also print the newsletter coupons online at this link!! Thanks!

General Mills Cereals (Cheerios, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, or Trix, 8.9-12.8oz.) are on sale for $1.99 each. For Cheerios, buy two and use the $1-off-2 coupon from 9/25 SS. You’ll pay $2.98 for two, or $1.49 each! The 10/2 GM has a $1-off-3 that will net you $1.66 cereal after coupon too.

Safeway Select 1.5qt. Ice Cream or Frozen Yogurt is involved in an instant-savings deal. Buy it at $3.49 and get a FREE Safeway Select Super Premium Ice Cream or Sorbet pint. This offer is limit 2 per transaction.

Check your Just For U, as I had an ecoupon for $1.98 1.5qt. Safeway Select ice creams, limit 3, through 12/18/11. $1.98 for the ice cream AND the free sorbet wasn’t bad at all :)

Again, though, if you have this and buy 3, note that you will only get TWO free pints per the terms of this offer. So I bought two. :)

Dominick’s is running a “Buy 2, Save $6” sale on batteries, various cleaning and paper products. Honestly, nothing great is jumping out at me here…

“Buy 4, Save $4” Instant-Savings Sale Buying any 4 of the following products will generate $4 in instant-savings! Prices were gathered at the Lake in the Hills store. Prices shown are AFTER the “Buy 4” savings, and you must buy four to receive these prices. Bertolli Pasta Sauce (15-24oz.) – $1.49 – .75 off 2 – printable – $1.50 off 4 – printable Knorr Homestyle Stock (4ct. 4.66oz.) – $1.99 Knorr Roasters (.68 to 1.42oz.) – could not find these in store (sorry!) Lipton Tea Bags (72-100ct.) – $1.99 – .60 off 2 – printable Lipton Pyramid Tea Bags (18-20ct.) – $1.99 Skippy Peanut Butter (15-16.3oz.) – $2.59 – National Catalina offer – Buy 2 Skippy Natural, get $1 Catalina – may have ended 10/29 Wish Bone Salad Dressing (16oz.) – $1.50 DEAL IDEA: This deal really shines if you happen to have any of the included items on your Just For U ecoupons. I have a personalized price of $2.02 per jar for the Skippy through 1/11/12. After the instant-savings, I paid $1.02 per jar. Because I bought 4 Skippy Naturals, I also got two $1 Catalinas back. It worked out to $2.08 for four, or .52 per jar! UPDATE: Reader Outlander posted that the end date for the Catalina is 10/29. I did not have an end date in my notes for this one, unfortunately. If you plan to do the deal, go into it NOT expecting the Catalina. (Darn.)

Are you a Meijer Mperks member? Mperks is a different set of electronic Meijer coupons.

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… View weekly ad

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 has been having a Hilander-specific wraparound that isn’t a part of the DeKalb Schnucks ad. Remember too that the DeKalb store does not double coupons.

MOST IMPORTANTLY: The Scnhucks ad cycle is a WEDNESDAY to TUESDAY ad, which means these deals will now end on Tuesdays of the current week. These deals end TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 1st.

IF YOU ARE A HILANDER SHOPPER, PLEASE READ. Email feedback regarding Hilander’s new ownership by Schnucks has been less than positive. And, with the shift in days on their flyer, I’m honestly wondering if it is worth blogging these deals any more. If you are a ROCKFORD area Hilander shopper and wish to see these writeups continue, please chime in under this writeup in the comments. If the deals aren’t benefitting many people, I will likely adjust the stores that I cover accordingly too. Let me know. :)

Here’s a great deal on Newman’s Own Pasta Sauce! 15-26oz. jars are on sale for $1.88 each. Use the .50 coupon from 10/23 RP, which doubles to $1, and you’ll pay .88!

18.9-29.9oz. TombStone Pizzas (which seem to be on sale everywhere this week!) are on sale for $2.49 each. Buy four and get a FREE 2-liter of Schnuck’s Super Soda. Buy four and print two of these $1-off-2 printables. After coupons, you’ll pay $7.96 for four. That’s $1.99 each, plus FREE pop!

General Mills Cereal Bars are on sale for $1.67 each. Use the .50 coupon from 9/11 GM, which doubles to $1, and pay .67!

Pillsbury Crescent or Sweet Rolls (8-13oz.) are on sale for $1.78 per can. For crescents, buy two and use the .40-off-2 coupon from the 10/23 SS, 10/2 GM, or 9/11 GM. The coupon will double to .80, and you’ll pay $2.76 for two, or $1.38 each. For sweet rolls, use the .40-off-2 from 10/23 SS, 10/2 GM or a printable, printable, printable. You’ll pay $2.76 for two, or $1.38 each.

16oz. packages of Bar-S Regular or Garlic Bologna are $1.50. Buy two and use the .75-off-2 coupon from 10/23 RP. You’ll pay $2.25 for two, or about $1.13 each.

DEAL IDEAS:

If you have ANY $8-off-2 Cover Girl coupons to use up, definitely use them now or lose them. With three $8-off-2 coupons, you could buy four clean foundations or pressed powders ($7.99 for the first one, $3.99 for the second.) Add two Cheekers blushes ($4.99 and $2.49.) Before coupons, you’d be at $31.44. After coupons, pay $7.44 and get a $10 CVS gift card. ALL FREE and a moneymaker!

******************

Rachel over at Mashup Mom posted one heck of a killer Cover Girl / Olay deal too which involves both Olay Regenerist and Cover Girl Lip Perfection lipsticks, which are free with coupon when you buy Regenerist moisturizer.

Here’s how it goes. And first, scan your CVS card at the coupon center in the store for a $5-off-20 coupon for “facial skincare.” You’ll need it! AND, make sure your CVS card is registered for their free CVS Beauty Club, which gives you $5 back in ECBs for every $50 you spend on beauty.

Now…

Buy two Regenerist moisturizer products at $20.99 each ($41.98)
Buy two Cover Girl Lip Perfection lipsticks ($7.99 and $3.99)
Buy $6.04 more Cover Girl of your choice to bring you over the $60 mark, pre-coupon. Two Cheekers blushes work well here at $4.99 and $2.99 each.
Pre-coupon total: $61.94

Use one $10-off-2 Regenerist moisturizers coupon from 9/25 RP
Use TWO “Buy Regenerist Get FREE Lip Perfection” coupons from 10/30 PG. The coupon is only good to $7.50, so you will get $7.50 credit for one lipstick and $3.99 for the other.)
Use one $8-off-2 coupon from 10/2 PG
Use $5-off-$20 Facial Skincare coupon from the CVS coupon printer

Post-coupon total: $27.45
Pay $27.45 and get TWO $10 CVS gift cards back, plus $5 in ECBs from the Beauty Club. That’s $2.45 for ALL of that… already a steal!

Now, if you’re a rebater, send your receipt in for this $10 Olay rebate… and everything’s FREE and a moneymaker!

If you have any email coupons from CVS, use them here too. I had a $5-off-$30 that I used here too. I paid $22.45 and got $25 back – ALL FREE and I can still do the rebate!

UPDATE: Reader ChiTownTeach posted a great alternative scenario here too if you DO NOT have the $8-off-2 Cover Girl coupon. Instead of buying the Cheekers, buy two Pantene products ($6.98.) Use the $3-off-2 Pantene coupon from 9/25 RP. The rest of the deal will be the same.

NOTE ON THE LIPSTICK COUPON: This lipstick coupon would not scan no matter what the cashier did at my CVS. It was also the first coupon that she scanned, as she took my coupon stack and started working from the back. So then the questions began… “Did you buy moisturizer?” (We went to the shelf and noted that none of the Olay products say “moisturizer,” even though night creams and hydration creams moisturize. She said that anything labeled “Moisturize” on the package (silver bar along the side) is considered a moisturizer and manually keyed them in. Just an FYI.)

And again… do this deal THROUGH 10/31 ONLY! Remember too that Beauty Club $5 ECBs usually print on your next trip to CVS too, so don’t sweat it if it doesn’t show up on your receipt during this trip. Happy shopping!

************

Remember that these deals run all week, and you don’t have to buy all of the items in the same shopping trip. Your CVS card will keep track for you and print the $10 gift card voucher when you hit $30.

“No Coupon Needed” Deals:

12oz. Gold Emblem Honey Bears are $2.50

Dean’s Orange Juice half-gallons are $1.99

Dozen cartons of Eggs are $1.69

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

Wrapping things up with Walmart…

Deals continuing from previous weeks

HALLOWEEN IS THE LAST DAY: Did you see the nice $8-off-2 Cover Girl coupon in the 10/2 PG? You can score some free makeup at Walmart this week with it! Single-color Cover Girl Cheekers blushes and Enhancers eye shadows are $3.99 at most stores. Buy two… and with your coupon, pay NOTHING. They’re FREE!

Policies to know:

• Walmart will price match any competitor’s advertised price. Bring the other store’s flyers with you to the store.
   
• 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.)
