Jewel’s ads state “Prices are good, unless otherwise indicated, at all Jewel-Osco stores.” As long as your store carries these items, you should be able to get the prices at your local Jewel too.

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. in the Big Book (May) they are BOGO $2.99, so after the 75c coupon on each item, it comes out to only 75c each for an 8-9 oz. package!

    I bought 2 today and had to tell the checker to manually enter the coupon on the freebie! I have not tried them yet but I got a ham and a turkey.

  3. I had to challenge the kool aid coupon because it didn’t initially give me my 3 free. Did anyone else have this problem?

  4. Also, Olives to go are on sale this month for $2.49. There is a $1 off coupon in the 5/4 SS making them $1.49. I think they are usually $2.99, so I decent deal for a good on the go snack. Just thought I would share :-)

  5. Harlem/Foster (Chicago) area…Breyers Ice Cream is on sale 2/$6 and when you buy 2 you instantly save $2 on any Magnum Ice Cream bars (many were $3.59), plus there is the buy 3 save $3 cpn in 5/4 R, so….

    Breyers #1 = $3
    Breyers #2 = $3
    Magnum #3 = $3.59

    Total $9.59

    Save $2 instantly = $7.59
    $3 cpn = $4.59 for all three

    There did not seem to be a limit per transaction, I purchased 6 Breyers and 3 Magnums and all $2 instant deductions came off.

  6. Does anyone know, do you have to buy 6 of the same product to get the $3 off or can you mix items??

  7. I also was unable to get the $1 off 2 coupon, however I did find a 55 cent coupon on the deansdip.com home page for the 12 oz. or larger :) 12-16 oz are $1.50 making them $0.95, still a good deal I think.

  8. I know today is the last day of this sale (possibly) but my Jewel had some of the Goldfish Explosion bags that are on sale along with a 35cent peelie coupon making them an even better price. Pay 90cents instead of $1.25! I got several.
