Oct. 23 Shopping Trips - Target and City Market Deals

Ran to Target to do the Glade g/c deal a few times and get some cheap peanut butter. Also found the Febreeze for $.14 and a free Gillette razor using the $4 coupon. Spent $7.59 and have about $6 on these g/c.




Went to City Market. I had some great coupons for the Post buy 4 save $4 deal. Also got Muir Glen organic tomato paste for $.10 each. Picked up some free yogurt and found some Sargento cheese clearanced, with a coupon it was about $.20. Otherwise just bought what I needed: milk, flour, bread, eggs, some produce. Used my $10 cat from the joint juice deal last week and paid $14.54 OOP.

Another Week Under Budget

Had a good Target run this week. The ice cream deal made my day. I was seriously craving some mint chip ice cream... I paid $17.48 +tax & got back $10 in gift cards for the ice cream & Kellogg's items. Might even be able to get another $10 Kellogg's rebate with them. No mega sales at the grocery stores this week - but I still only spent $70 total at all stores and that's $30 under budget. :) I didn't take the time to get pics of my Safeway & City Market deals - nothing too great, picked up 22 packets of Reach dental floss for free at CM. Won't have to buy that for awhile. :)

$20 Under Budget!!

I'm so happy to be under budget this week. Especially considering that I had to buy my special shampoo & conditioner because I'm allergic to almost everything - they were $14 - yikes! There were some great items at Target that were free or cheap including mascara, Johnson's body wash, Glade candles & refills, Tide & Chef Michael dog food. I saved $132.90 & paid $2.32 + tax (sorry I didn't get a pic)

Safeway had a great cereal promo. I also got alot of free or cheap items including Barilla pasta, Squirt, Wishbone Dressing, Arm & Hammer toothpaste. I was down to my last 3 boxes of cereal so this worked great to replenish my stockpile. Paid $23.97 and saved over $139 that's 87% - however I will send in my receipt & get a $10 Kellogg's rebate so that's a bonus!







City Market is still having their mega sale but I used my best coupons last week. Still I was thrilled to find No Name Steaks clearanced for $3.99 with $1 peelies on them. Got 6 free Wholly Salsas & Free Yakisoba noodles, Mentos gum & Reeses (very evil). And when I checked out the cashieer was so excited about how much I saved he insisted on high-fiving me. I didn't have the heart to tell him I saved more at Safeway :) Paid $31.28 and saved almost $89 which was 75%

THANK YOU, DOUBLE COUPONS!!!!

Oh, I want to shout it from the rooftops! I LOVE this City Market/Kroger promo. The coupons for Propel & Sobe ended up making me $15 to use toward the rest of my items. I paid about $25 for all this and saved a total of $181. I splurged on the Hummus - paid $4 for it, but you got to have Hummus with Stacy's Pita Chips, yummy!

Rite Aid Clearance

There were gold nugget Snickers clearanced for $.25 at Rite Aid. Using the $1/2 coupon from a couple weeks ago made for a nice moneymaker to help bring down my total on the Freebate items.

Target Deals!!

Right now you can get an overage on some Hasbro games at Target. Cadoo was clearanced for $3.75 use this $5 coupon for a nice overage. The best part is that I used about 10 of these coupons today and not a single one beeped. I paid $24 for these items & that's including an ink cartridge for $29 (I've got to find some cheaper ink).

City Market Doubles!!

Looks like I can't complain any longer. Both my local stores (Safeway & City Market) now double coupons! I am so excited! I can't wait to get all the awesome deals that everyone else brags about.

Free At Safeway!

Wacky Mac was on sale for $.75 - using the $.75 coupon from 5/10(?) makes them free!

City Market Mega Event Freebies!!

There are some GREAT deals to be had at City Market(King Soopers) with their 10 item Mega Event. Mix & Match any 10 items to get $5 off your total. At the front of the store with the weekly ads they have lists of the items that are included in the sale. So far, these are the items I have gotten for free.

Softsoap is $1 WYB10 (when you buy 10) - use $1 coupon from here use zip code 45435

Speed stick is $1 WYB10 - use $1.50 coupon from here use zip code 33907 (for a $.50 overage!)

Amp is $1 WYB10 - you will need to buy 10 Amps in one transaction to do this deal. Purchase 10 and your total will be $10.45. The Catalina machine prints out a coupon for a $10 g/c. I have done this 4X so far. If you are going to do this deal be sure you know that the Cat machine is working.

If your store doubles - mine doesn't- Temptations Cat Treats & Sunny D Smoothies would also be free.


Another good deal is the Kraft Mac & Cheese 5pk. It's on sale for $2.75. On the side of the box was a peelie for FREE Kraft Ranch dressing (which is part of the Mega Sale).

Huge Moneymaker at City Market!!

City Market is having an awesome mix & match event right now. Playtex Handsaver gloves are $.50 ea. WYB 10 items - using the $1 coupons from 5/3 SS (?) you get a $.50 overage. I bought 20 last night & used the overage to buy $10 worth of groceries. I paid $3.97 only because the cashier missed one of my $1 coupons. These gloves work great for me because I'm allergic to pretty much everything.

Loving the Safeway Deals!!

There are some GREAT deals to be found at Safeway!! One that I found was the Schick Quattro razors that are 50% off ($4.89 at my Safeway) - use the $4 off coupon to get them for $.89 ea!! I picked up 6 -great stock-up price. Also the Dentastix were $3.99 & using a $2.50 printable and the $2.50 shortcuts e-coupon made them a $1.01 moneymaker!! I paid $20.41 for these items.



When I found out my Safeway was doubling coupons I was so excited I nearly peed my pants! Today I grabbed 25 Propel waters - on sale for $1 & each one had a hang tag for $.55 off!! I paid $.02 in tax for each one. I also got some relish - which was what I went to get. The total was $2.82!! These double coupons give me a whole new reason to shop at Safeway.

Safeway Double Coupons!!!!

Unbelievably my Safeway ad this week shows that they are doubling coupons up to $.50!! For those of us with limited stores & none (until now) that double this is awesome news! Click here to see your local ad.

Money Maker at City Market!!

If you happened to print the $2.50 coupon from coupons.com you can pair that with a $2.50 ecoupon from Shortcuts. They are on sale for $3.99 - so a $1.01 moneymaker!

Great Safeway Deals!!

Kool-Aid is 10/$1 at Safeway. Buy 10 & use the recent coupon for $2 off any sugar WYB 10 Kool-aid. I picked up the small package which was $1.15. So I paid $.15 for 10 Kool-aid & sugar!

Hefty is $1.25 ea WYB 4 - use the recent $1 off coupons to get them for $.25 ea!

6/28 FREE at Rite Aid!

If you have any of those BOGO blinkies (I picked up some at my local Safeway) you can use them on the BOGO sale at Rite Aid today. These expire today & the max value is $.85 - so you will pay $.03 for each. I picked up 30 today for $.94! The M&M's will work great to make monster cookies. The Snickers & Twix I like to freeze and then mix with vanilla ice cream - yumm!

Free at Target!!

Right now you can get 2 Softsoap Ensembles for $6 ea and get a $5 g/c. Use (2) $2 manu. coupons & (2) $2 Target coupons and pay $4 plus tax and get a $5 g/c.

Also in Colorado last Sunday we got a coupon for $3 off Jose Cuervo - including Margarita Mix - right now the Margarita Mix is price cut to $2.99 at Target

Reach floss - looks like just the Mint Waxed is priced at $1.02 - use the $1 coupons from Sunday a couple weeks ago to get it for $.02 ea.

Good Deals & Freebies at Rite Aid

Right now you can get a couple of GREAT deals on table umbrellas at Rite Aid. The Hula umbrella is on sale for $29.99 - use the $5 off $25 (use this one first) coupon combined with the $25 off coupon from here to get it FREE! Also a good deal is the Market umbrella which is about $7.50 after all coupons. These coupons are only good until 6/23 so don't wait to do this deal.

Also this week there are some items that are Free After Rebate at Rite Aid. The best one is for Suave - use the $.75 coupon to turn it into a moneymaker. Also Oust is on sale for $2.50 - use the $2 coupons to get some for cheap!

Great Dairy Coupons for those in ID & UT

There are great dairy coupons on coupons.com however the fine print says only on products sold in ID and UT. You have to first type in zip code 83642 and there are coupons for:

$.75 off ANY milk
$.75 off ANY yogurt
$1 off ANY 2lbs cheese

Thanks Utah Deal Diva for posting about these great coupons!

Rite Aid Deal - 6/14 ONLY!!!

Rite Aid has their fans 25% off - Use the $5 off $25 coupon (give this to the cashier first) along with the coupon here to get the fan for $4.99 +tax. Just a note, it may be a good idea to buy additional items - maybe the Colgate Total- because the cashier may have an issue using 2 coupons for 1 item.

Air Wick I-Motion at Target

The deals are few & far between this week. Air Wick I-Motion is tagged at $9.99 at Target but rings up $4.99 - use the $4 off coupon for a good deal on this. I guess they are also on sale at Walmart for $5, but I rarely go to Walmart so I can't confirm that.

Safeway whole chickens are at a stock-up price for $.69/lb. and their Mix & Match sale is still going on however there don't seem to be as many good deals this week.

I've heard that at King Soopers Reach toothbrushes are on sale for $1 and there are $1 coupons out there - another deal I haven't confirmed yet but will update once I do.
