Jewel-Osco Grocery Deals

Applebees, American Eagle, Bass Pro Shops, Kohls, iTunes and MasterCard (has extra load fee, but would still likely be a moneymaker with the $20 Catalina!)

The fine print from the ad (which is on Page 13 in the 11/20 flyer)…

EARN $20 off your next grocery purchase. Offer valid 11/20/13 – 12/03/13 *See store for participating gift cards. $20 free grocery coupon issued at checkout and may be redeemed on your NEXT grocery purchase. Coupon expires (1) week after issuance. Coupon not valid for previous purchases and cannot be used to purchase gift cards. Limit one coupon per qualifying and redeeming transaction – see coupon for additional restrictions. While supplies last. No rain checks. Gift card brands are subject to availability and selection varies by store – product offer may not be available in all States. See gift cards for details, terms and conditions and (if applicable) fees. All trademarks are property of their respective owners.

The fine print reads “Jewel-Osco will match listed competitors Thanksgiving Turkey Programs including price, minimum purchase requirements and restrictions. Limit 1 turkey per customer per transaction.

Suave body wash 12oz. – $1.50
– Buy 2 Get 1 FREE – 11/17 RP
– $1 off 2 – November All You

Suave deodorant 2.6oz. – $1.50
– .50 off – 11/17 RP
– .25 off – printable

Suave Professsionals (ad shows Keratin) 5-12.6oz. – $2.50
– Buy 1 Get 1 FREE – 11/17 RP

Suave hair care (ad shows styling spray) 5-12.6oz. – $2.50

Suave hand and body lotion 18oz. – $2.50
– $1.50 off – 11/17 RP

DEAL IDEAS:

The Suave coupons are limited to two like coupons per transaction, so here’s a scenario:
Buy three Suave body washes ($4.50)
Buy four Suave Professionals shampoos ($10)
Buy one Suave lotion ($1.50 = now $16)
Get $3 instant savings = now $13
Use $1-off-2 Suave body wash coupon and B2G1F coupon
Use two B1G1F Suave Professionals coupons
Use $1.50 Suave lotion

Pay $4 for everything – that’s eight products for $4, or .50 per item!

Or, buy two and use the Buy One Get One FREE coupon from the 11/17 RP. Pay $1.69 for two, or about .85 each! (Note that the B1G1F coupon’s terms prohibit it from being combined with another coupon like the printable linked above. These are separate deals.)

 

 The 6-pack bottles are your best bet here – total 144 ounces vs. 96 ounces for the 12oz. bottles.

The next game day is Nov. 24 against the Rams. GO BEARS! Here’s the full Bears season schedule for reference. 

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.

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.

Comments

  1. The ad that starts tomorrow goes thru 11-28 (Thanksgiving Day) so we have two extra days to get these particular deals!

  2. I went to Crystal Lake Jewel last night in search of EE apple juice marked “product of USA”. I looked thru 3 shelves of juice, but all were marked “product of China”. The 4th shelf, on the bottom, had only 4 bottles marked from the USA. Unfortunately, as I rang them up thru the self-serve lane, they priced out at $3.99 each. I then walked back to the juice aisle with customer service to recheck the price. The bottles I found marked “product of USA” were “not from concentrate” and NOT on sale. What of waste of time. Jill, it looks like you may have the only remaining bottles of EE apple juice made from USA apples. I already checked the Jewel in Cary, and they’re all from China too. It’s getting so I really don’t trust Jewel anymore.

  3. Does anyone know if this coupon is a one time only print? I could only print it once. Thanks.

  4. Thank you for an amazing job Jill. I went to Jewel for the Suave scenario as you described above. The coupon from the All You magazine ($1 of 2 body wash) they wouldn’t accept because it said Dollar General at the bottom. Is anyone else experiencing that as well? It was still a good deal! Thanks again!

  5. Jewel in Palos heights said they no longer take printed Internet coupons. The cashier refused to take them. Is this something new?

  7. I did the gift card deal today and found out that Amazon and AMC are included in the deal. I had to go to the customer service desk to confirm it before I went and bought them (no returns on gift cards) and I bought one of each in addition to a Kohl’s and iTunes gift card and I got the $20 coupon. There were other options at the customer service desk so you might want to check first.

  8. MRs Cubbison Croutons are $1.19 at my Jewel at Lincoln and Irving. Currently, they have a sweepstakes going on https://www.thanksgivingtips.com/promo2013.php
    AFter you enter the sweeps, you can print out a $1 off two coupon. I don’t know how many you can print. I printed two and didn’t try a third.
    So, I got 4 at .69 per bag!

  9. better at Ultra

    Pepsi 6-packs of 24oz. bottles are $1.88 when you buy 4
    4 for $7.52
    With two coupons, $2-off-2 coupon 11/3 S1 for the bottles.
    pay $3.52 for four multipack bottles, or .88 cents per multipack

    limit 4
