8oz. Kraft salad dressing is on sale for $1.25. Buy two and use the $1-off-2 from the October All You. Pay $1.50 for two, or .75 each. EDIT: Not a good deal- coupon is for the 16oz. bottles and with these being the small bottles, it’s no longer a good deal. There are also .55-off-2 coupons in the 9/22 SS and the September All You.

Buy 5 or more and get a $3 Catalina

If you add one more Tombstone pizza to the above deal, you’ll pay $13 and get a $1 Catalina. That’s $12 for five items, or about $2.40 per item. If you were happy with $2.38 Tombstones, this is an easy way to get one more of them pretty cheap.

If you wear your Chicago Bears jersey or “one of the Bears shirts we sell” on any 2013 Bears football game day, Jewel will take 10% off your grocery bill! This is after all coupons, and is not valid on prescriptions, alcohol, tobacco and other usual exclusions.

This week’s game day is October 6th vs. the Saints! (GO BEARS!) Here’s the full Bears season schedule for reference. 

Jewel has a new Rachael Ray Dinnerware promotion running. You can earn a stamp for every $10 you spend in store. Save them up and cash them in for free Rachael Ray dinnerware. You can choose from dinner plates, salad plates, soup/cereal bowls and mugs. The dinnerware will hit stores on 9/4.

For every 20 stamps you collect, you can choose one free item. For every stamp saver card you fill, you can choose six free items. Or, collect 10 stamps and pay $2.99, plus your stamps, for one item.

Jewel’s coupon policy allows shoppers to apply manufacturer coupon overage to other items in the same transaction. It also allows two manufacturer coupons to be used on a Buy One Get One Free sale. However, the registers are currently programmed to adjust coupons down to match the sale price of an item, and to scan the second coupon on a B1G1F at $0.00. Corporate has stated that the cashiers are supposed to manually enter the overage and second B1G1F coupon.

Watch very closely with two coupons on a Buy One Get One Free. The second coupon will appear to scan fine, but it will show as $0.00 at the register. Be prepared to call on your cashier to manually adjust this for you immediately if they do not intervene.

 If you anticipate any issues with this, I would recommend carrying a copy of Jewel’s coupon policy, which outlines both of these issues clearly.

You do not need to use your Preferred Card to receive sale prices anymore. But if you want to use SavingStar ecoupons and Jewel’s own ecoupons, continue to use your card.  Don’t discard it if you have Fuel Rewards on the card, or if you intend to continue using ecoupons at Jewel! SavingStar has confirmed they will still continue their offers at Jewel. We have also noticed that you get many more Catalina coupons (the per-product kind that are for specific items, like “.75 off Prego pasta sauce”) when you use your Jewel card, as your purchase history is tied to it.

The “Big Book of Savings” Jewel-Osco monthly ad both have a coupon for a $25 Jewel-Osco gift card with a new or transferred prescription, and a $75 Jewel-Osco gift card with 5 more refills. The coupons expire 12/28/13, so KEEP some if you will need them down the line. They have been putting these in the ads off and on, but better to have some when you need them.
