Coupon Inserts

Because it is a holiday weekend there are no coupon inserts.

This week

I'm sorry I didn't put any new posts up this last week. I've had one crazy, and hopefully forgettable week.

Coupon Inserts

This weeks inserts are: Red Plum, 2 Smartsource, and Proctor and Gamble. There are also Double coupons for Albertsons which expire 5/19.

Smith's Deal

Smith's has Electrosol Dishwasher Power balls on sale for $2.99. (Normally over $6.00 a box.) If you use coupon from 4/16 SS insert $2.50/1, these powerballs are $.50 per box. That's a good deal if you ask me!!!

Kraft Foods

It looks like these coupons have been reset. You can go back and print more.

Albertsons Deal

On Monday I went to Albertsons with a purpose in mind.

17 Kraft BBQ Sauce
On sale for $.75 when you bought 10 Kraft? products
Used 17 $.75/1
=Free

10 Kraft Mac and Cheese cups
On sale for $.75 when you bought 10 Kraft? products
Used 5 $1.00/2
=$.25 each or a total of $2.50

2 Kraft Bagelfuls
On sale for $1.75 when you bought 10 Kraft? products
Used 2 $1.00/1
=$1.50

Total $4.06. I saved over $39.00. Plus I got a Catalina for $3.00 for buying over 6 BBQ sauce, so really I got all these groceries for $1.00. Can you believe it????

The sad thing is- is if I had split these groceries into 3 transactions I would have $5.00 more in Catalina's making it so I would have been paid to shop at Albertsons this week.

New to Coupons. What is a Catalina? you ask. I don't have a very good description but it's a coupon that prints at checkout when you buy participating items. Like a store credit. You can use the credit on your next shopping trip. These do have expiration dates so watch for those. Walgreens has these...there called Register Rewards or RR, and I think Smith's has them buy I'm not sure. We don't have a Smith's in Tooele so I don't get there very often.

Have a great deal. Please Share. Have any questions? Just Ask!

Setting Your Own Price for the Groceries You Buy

After a few months of cutting coupons, I 've decided I now set the price on what I will pay for my groceries. For me...I want to save %50 on most products. There are a few things to consider when you do your grocery shopping:

1) What products have coupons. You will usually see coupons for hygiene products (like t.p., toothpaste, toothbrushes, deodorant, shampoo, conditioner, soap, etc.,) cleaning products, Dairy, Frozen meals and vegetables. You usually have to wait for a sale on meats, I rarely see coupons for bread or milk +(If I do, it's usually a store promotion.)

2) Is it worth buying the product for the amount I get off. An example of this is the Kraft coupons. I went to check the price of the Kraft items to see if it was worth using the coupon. Oscar Mayer hot dogs were $1.50 a pack. I had to buy 2 packs to get $1.00 off. I usually buy a different brand of hot dogs. Buying two packs of my other hot dog brand was still cheaper then buying the Oscar Mayer hot dogs...so I passed up this deal.

3) Should I buy the item with the coupon or should I wait for a sale and use the coupon. There is a positive side to doing this. You will save more money by buying the product on sale with the coupon. The negative side of this is what if the product doesn't go on sale or the sale is not good enough. The hot dogs I talked about above were on sale...the sale was not good enough for me. This is were you set the price for the groceries you buy. Don't just buy items because you have coupons...Make sure you are saving money and you are buying produsts you will use.

4) Is this a good enough sale or do I have enough coupons to stock up on the product. Last week Albertsons had a store promotion on BBQ sauce. I knew I had coupons that would make the BBQ sauce free. I bought 17 BBQ sauces and paid nothing for them. This was an amazing deal. Not only will I have BBQ to use, some to store, but I will also have some to give away. I will give it to family or food banks. This is an awsome way to help others and not hurt your pocket book.

Aaron thinks it's funny when I go to the grocery store and get mad because I see something I want or need and don't have my coupons with me. I used to hate coupons. I thought they were a waste of time. I am saving so much money, buying more food, and stocking up on extras. Your family doesn't have to suffer when your saving money. Some might think that you can't have the same snacks and treats that you usually have when you using coupons...you can!!!

Remember, it's not hard to set your prices once you get the hang of things. It's well worth it.

KFC

Many of you may already know this but if you printed a KFC 2 piece grilled meal coupon they will not be taking them right now. They had an overwhelming response to their free meals. KFC has decided to take your coupons at their locations and mail you a coupon for a free 2 piece grilled meal at a later date. I heard that because of this problem, they will add a free drink to your meal.

I was so excited today when I saw great coupons everywhere. You can go to Kraft Foods and print some great coupons, and you can also go to coupons.com. Just click on Coupons.com on my side bar and you will go directly to the site.

Make sure to print the Kraft BBQ on both sites which will make BBQ free at Walmart and also Kraft Salad dressing on both sites which will make the dressing $.58 at Walmart. There are some other great coupons but I have not been to Walmart (yet) to print a price comparison. (Rembember to print your coupons twice.)

Happy Shopping.

I was out of town this weekend so I didn't get this up on Saturday. Hopefully you still have your papers. The coupon inserts for 5/3 are: Red Plum, Smart Source, and Proctor and Gamble.

Remember most your April Proctor and Gamble coupons have expired. I would look through it one more time, check for coupons, and then get rid of it. If you are interested...I just put up a post of where you can send expired coupons.

Expired Coupons

While Aaron was in the Army, I felt like sometimes we struggled financially. When he was first in, he was lower ranked and we were a family of 3 at that time. There is a way to help Military families. Oversees Military families can use coupons up to six months after they expire. If you would like to help, click here for some address on where to send your expired coupons.
