Twice the Value(aka double coupon) at Albertson's-sunday paper

It is Twice the Value coupons this week..which is basically a doubler coupon. I love the sites A Thrifty Mom, and Fabulessly Frugal for my Double Coupon Match ups. You can find these blogs on the right hand side under my "blog list".
 Also.. since the coupons come in the Sunday paper (and this last time you could print them from the Albertsons facebook page..so make sure you "like" Albertsons facebook page so you can get some if they do the same this weekend) I like to make a trip in on Saturday some time and see if there are any unadvertised sales and what the stock is like on the items i am wanting and then that night i plan my trip out. Excited!

Broulims Case Lot Sale

To stock up..or not to stock up..that is the question. I find that sometimes i can get items for cheaper than the case lot sell..that is if i use coupons. If you are not a couponer than the case lot sale is a good option. I make my own pasta sauce so i go through A LOT of tomato sauce and this is when i do stock up on it. Do you make a lot of different kinds of soup in the fall? If you do..this is also a good time to stock up on your different lentils..like white beans. I also like the price of the maple syrup in the large container..compared to buying multiples of the smaller containers. Below i have listed some of the best finds..in my opinion :) AND..if there are any available coupons i am aware of to use with the sale. Most items are western family brand and do not match with coupons. On a side note..make sure you have room to store what you buy :) This is something i forget sometimes and then i get home and...ohhh no... freezer is full..or cabinets are full..but that is a good thing right?!

I feel these are a great value even without a coupon
*Flour $6.88
*Sugar $13.79
*Orange Juice 4 for $5
*Tomato Sauce 4 for $1
*Top Ramen 10 for $1
*Evaporated Milk .79
*WF seasoning packets 3 for $1
*Eggs (if you can use 5 dozen by expiration..or split with someone!) $4.98 18 pks usually go for around $2.44

Manufacturer coupons
*Spaghetti O's  Smart Source Insert 9/11

Store coupons
Sunland Peanut Butter (16 oz) $1.69 with the instore coupon

If you really don't like couponing or just don't want to bother with it.. this is a pretty good sale for stocking up on items. I bake a lot in the fall and winter so the items that i noticed are definitely items that will help that cost less. Let me know if you find some great coupons that match this sale or what you feel is a great value!

Purex Crystals Coupons On Facebook

I love these little crystals. If you have not used them yet, maybe this is the time to try them. If you go to the facebook page https://www.facebook.com/purex?sk=app_206880642657539. Like their page and then on the left side find the area that says "coupon". I rarely see coupons for these..and you can print 2. :)

Love to wash my bedding, towels and blankets with these..long lasting scent is great!

Price hike for peanut butter

One of the cheapest sandwiches you can make..just got a little more spendy. Well i should say "is about" to get more expensive come November. The main ingredients in this tasty little sandwich are about to get a price increase. The price increase in peanut butter will be 30% and jam is estimated to be a 4%. If you were paying $3 a jar for peanut butter you can now count on it as of November..being about $4. (IF you are a couponer..you would never pay $3 a jar!:)

The link below gives more specifics on this subject

No coupons in the Sunday paper this weekend-Labor Day

For those of you new to couponing..usually there are not any coupon inserts in the Sunday paper on a holiday weekend. This weekend is Labor day weekend so don't go out and buy a paper to get the inserts..or you will be sadly disappointed :)

Cheese and Milk Coupon!

I love when this coupon is available. I watch Smith's, Broulims, and Albertsons for when they have any brand of cheese on sale. It is for a 2lb brick of cheese. I can usually find a good enough deal to pay only $3.99 for a 2lb brick of cheese. Go to the link below to print!

There is also a milk coupon that is available to print. And as i have said in preview posts..you can typically print two of the coupon.

When you go to Nabisco cookies facebook page and like them through this link  https://www.facebook.com/nabiscocookies?sk=app_344901331467  you can print a $1 off nabisco cookies (when you also purchase milk) If you pair this coupon with a sale on cookies.. makes for a great deal.

Salad for lunch...i think yes. I'll just go out to my garden and violaa! This butter leaf lettuce with spinach, tomatoes, cucumber and green onion..all from the garden. Best part of the salad?! My favorite brand of ranch dressing which is Kens steakhouse dressing...which i got for FREE by couponing.

New to couponing?

If you are new to couponing it can be overwhelming. I have listed below a few of my favorite websites that are legitimate and safe to get your coupons from. There is also the option of subscribing or buying the Sunday Post register which will have coupon inserts if you are not wanting to do the online coupons or you want to do both! http://www.postregister.com/ContactUs/

Many people will say that you can only get junk/processed food with coupons. I don't feel that is true. Sure there are many of those types of coupons out there but there are also coupons for yogurt,milk,cheese,bread,nuts and so on. I am going to be honest and tell you that ya..i do buy cookies and tuna helper! One of the benefits to couponing is that i can save money on items i am getting with a coupon so that i can buy things such as more expensive cuts of meat or produce.

You can typically print two of each couponing depending on the website and number of prints the coupon has out at the time. If you have questions.. please ask! I will tell you.. i am definitely not an extreme couponer. I buy the items that my family will use and can store. I have had a great percent of savings since i started couponing in April! There are also some great sites that i follow for sale ad match ups which i have listed in my blogs that i follow.  :)

Double coupon weekend

Albertsons occasionally offers a coupon called "Twice the Value". This coupon will double the manufacturer coupon you use up to a dollar. When you pair those coupons with a sale...that makes for some great deals! This is just a few of the things i bought with my coupons. My focus for most of my shopping over the weekend was to stock up on things i may use for my sons school lunches. Retail value for all of what is pictured above was around $39. I was able to get all of it for $9 plus tax!

The Twice the Value coupons are found in most Sunday papers. I have found if you subscribe to the post register they are found in there every time Albertsons offers them. I have had times they are not offered in the papers that i have bought on Sunday.

Toothpaste for .49 a tube?! yayyyyyy. This deal made me very happy for a few reasons. First reason is that my husband is SUPER picky about his toothpaste and will not use anything else BUT this brand and kind of toothpaste. Reason number two is that the tubes came with an additional travel size toothpaste. Lastly number three...each tube came with a .75 off coupon for this brand of toothpaste! This deal was at Albertsons. They had an in store coupon making the toothpaste .99 each that i then stacked with a manufacturer coupon that took off .50. Four tubes of toothpaste for $1.96 plus tax! Limit of 6. Sale ends tomorrow

Do you love saving money?

How would you like to save money on your grocery bill? What would you do with the extra money? Did you know you could save anywhere from 40% to 98% on your grocery bill with just couponing and matching sales?! I have been couponing and CAN NOT believe how much i am paying for some amazing things. Couponing really made me open my eyes to how i shop and the prices i am paying. I also realized there are many coupons i do not use..but someone should! That realization brought forth the idea for a couponing circle. A couponing circle is when a group of fellow coupon clippers get together and socialize while exchanging coupons that they would use. It is also a great opportunity to have yummy treats!
