Starting to Save

What a great way to come back after such a long hiatus! Sorry I haven’t been posting lately, I’ve been out of town and our carrier has decided to stop giving some of our weekly flyers, so while I am waiting for the stores to fix this issue the Grocery deals at a glance posts will be on hold.  In the meantime…

This week Springs Bargains posted on a way to take extra advantage of a deal taking place at King Soopers: The deal is below:

Buy 2 gallons of Colorado Proud Milk and 4 participating Kelloggs products and each item is only $1! Good deal on it’s own…BUT there is also a Catalina promotion going on as well. The following items are included:

* Frosted Flakes (10oz or larger, any flavor)
* Apple Jacks (10oz or larger, any flavor)
* Fruit Loops (10oz or larger, any flavor
* Corn Pops (10oz or larger, any flavor)
* Cocoa Krispies (10oz or larger, any flavor)
* Honey Smacks (10oz or larger, any flavor

Buy 3 get back a $1 Catalina good on your next shopping trip
Buy 4 get back a $3  Catalina good on your next shopping trip
Buy 5 ( or more) get back a $4 Catalina good on your next shopping trip

This promotion goes through 3/10/10

Buy four cereals that are participating in both promotions (which would include Apple Jacks, Corn Pops, and Frosted Flakes) and 2 gallons of Colorado Proud milk. Pay $6 total at checkout and receive a Catalina for $3 on your next order, making your net cost: $3.

But wait! There are Kellogg’s Blinkies for $1/2 for Fruit Loops, Corn Pops and Apple Jacks. Use 2 of these and get any combination of 4 Corn Pops or Apple Jacks and save an additional $2. Now your net cost is $1 for 2 Gallons of milk and 4 boxes of cereal! How can you beat that?

Here’s how:

Monday March 1st the first 500,000 fans of the Nabisco Facebook page that visit on that day will get a coupon for a FREE box of cookies when you buy a gallon of milk! Now no details are being released for this promotion until the 1st, but since there are no coupons needed for the milk and cereal promotion and the cereal coupons are not being used for cookies it seems to me that you SHOULD be able to get…

2 Gallons of milk
4 Boxes of cereal
1 box of cookies

AND if you do the coupon deal above and include the Catalina savings, ALL of these can be yours for the low low price of $1!!!

Now you really can’t beat that.

***The fine print.  The King Soopers in my area runs their deals Wed-Tues, so this deal will only be available March 1-2***

I know my feelings towards Target have been pretty well known lately, but every so often they do something that turns my head. This week is one of those times.
As of yesterday (when I bought them myself) Target had a number of brands of apples on sale. I don’t know if these are advertised [...]

Albertsons is doing their coupon deals again this week!  As a reminder $.25 and below quadrupled, up to $.33 trippled, and up to $.50 doubled (it’s not clear what happens to coupons over $.50, if they are taken at face value or if they round up to $1)!  Albertsons is also accepting competitors coupons (included [...]

Slowly but surely this blog is expanding. I’m trying to get more posts out more frequently, and to let (at least my local readers) know if there is anything really good out in grocery stores each week.  On top of whatever improvements I may be making here, I’ve also finally gotten my blog to start [...]

Last night there was a discussion on how frustrating it is that a person can’t find healthy coupons for produce and such.  Today I was checking out Money Saving Mom and she was talking about HOT dairy coupons, that don’t appear to be limited by brand!  As a Tillamook cheese buyer myself, this is VERY [...]
