Meijer - Ragu and Creamette Deal (12/28 - 1/3)






Meijer is running a great deal this week with Ragu pasta sauce and Creamette pasta. If you buy one jar of Ragu sauce you get one box of Creamette pasta free. I went today to try this out and to see if you could get two free boxes when you buy two jars and it worked!! The best part is that the sauce is on sale for 1.38 each, plus you can use the .50 off 2 coupon from the 11/16 Redplum insert.



So if you buy two sauces and two boxes of pasta the total will be 2.76 (after the free pasta comes off) and you'll get 1.00 off with the coupon (after .50 coupon doubles to 1.00), so you'll pay 1.76 for two sauces and two pastas!! So if you use one sauce and one pasta per meal that's only .88 per meal!!!




Just add some free or cheap veggies from previous deals and you've got two really inexpensive lunches or dinners!!!

Meijer - Free Ronzoni Pasta and Cheap Act II Popcorn and Kashi Cereal Bars


Meijer has Ronzoni Smart Taste Pasta on sale for .99. Use the 1.00 off 1 coupon from the 10/5 Smartsource insert to get it free!!!

Act II popcorn is half price making it 1.24 for the 3ct boxes. Use the .40 off 1 coupon from the 12/14 Smartsource insert to pay .44 per box after the coupon doubles!!

Also, Kashi Cereal Bars are 2.55. If you got the 2.00 off coupons from Vocalpoint, these will only be .55 each!


This will be my last post until after Christmas, so I pray everyone will have a truly blessed Christmas. And make sure to take time to remember this special day when our Lord and Savior left the comforts of heaven and came into this broken and dirty world, with one goal in mind and that was to save us. No other gift can ever compare.

Merry Christmas!

Update - Coupons and KMart


HI!!!

I'm really sorry if you've checked back here a few times (or alot!!) over the past week or so and have seen the same boring coffee creamer post!! I'm pretty bogged down right now, with, well....just life I guess!! My computer time lately has been spent working on gifts for the family and when I'm not doing that, we're doing our lessons (homeschool), shopping, cleaning and tomorrow we're adding in baking!!


I did shop Kroger and Meijer this week and didn't think there was really anything awesome. They both have fresh produce on sale. Kroger has Tyson boneless skinless chicken breast for 1.77 per pound. Overall, it just wasn't much, which was really fine for me because I haven't clipped my coupons in two weeks and I just can't do it right now!!


Now that it's a new month, most of the online coupon sites have changed coupons. You can just scroll down to see on the right side of the blog here a list of printable sites to check. Coupons.com even has some for Star Wars toys!!


I know the regular coupons haven't been too great the last few weeks, but we should be getting at least two inserts this week, so hopefully it'll make up for the shortage!!


KMart is doing super doubles again this week. Which means they will double any coupon up to 2.00, but will not go over the price of the item. You may want to call ahead to your store and be sure they're doing it before you leave!!


Well if I find any great deals I'll be sure and share them with you, otherwise, have a great week and Merry Christmas!!!

Meijer - Free International Delight Creamers!!

Sorry! It appears the coupon is for the 32oz bottle and the 16oz bottle is the one on sale for .99. I didn't realize this and I usually check the coupons, but for some reason, this one got past me. I'm really sorry!! I guess I was just so excited to have some yummy hot chocolate!! I did use 4 of them last night and they didn't beep. I don't know why they didn't, but they should've. Again, I'm sorry.
International Delight Creamers are free this week at Meijer after coupon!! Use the .55 off 1 coupon from the 10/12 Redplum insert and when it doubles it will be free!! Remember Meijer only doubles two identical coupons per order, so if you have more than two coupons, be sure to separate them into different orders so all of your coupons will double!!

I love to add this to hot chocolate to make it extra creamy!! Yummy!!

I went shopping tonight at Meijer and Kroger and I'll post all the deals I found tomorrow.

Kroger & Meijer - Deals for the Week of 11/16

I shopped Meijer and Kroger and found some great deals that I thought I'd share. Here's what I found, first Meijer and then Kroger:

Del Monte canned vegetables are .50 each. Use the 1.00 off 4 coupon from the 11/16 Redplum insert to pay 1.00 for 4 cans (.25 each).

Del Monte 50% Less Salt canned vegetables are also .50 each. Use the .30 off 1 coupon from the 11/16 Redplum to get them free!!

Green Giant Valley Fresh Steamers frozen vegetables are .89. Use the 1.00 off 1 coupon from the 11/16 Smartsource insert to get those free!!

Betty Crocker boxed potatoes are 1.00. Use the .35 off 1 coupon from the 11/16 Smartsource insert to pay .30 each.

Philadelphia Cream Cheese is 1.25. Use the .50 off 2 coupon from the 11/2 Smartsource insert to pay .75 each. Plus there is a catalina deal on these (coupon that prints at the register to use on your next order). I bought 6 and got a 3.00 catalina. This also works at Kroger which is a better deal because if you buy 6 and use 3 coupons, at Meijer only two coupons will double but at Kroger all three will double and you'll still get the catalina. At Meijer after you consider the catalina, it's like paying .33 each at Kroger it's like paying .25 each.

Progresso Chicken Broth (in the carton) is 1.67. Use the 1.00 off 1 coupon from the 11/16 Smartsource insert to pay .67 each.

Knorr/Lipton Pasta and Rice Sides are 1.00. Use the .75 off 2 coupon from the 11/16 Redplum insert to pay 1.00 for two (.50 each).

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Like I mentioned above Philadelphia Cream Cheese is 1.25. If you buy 6 and use three .50 off 2 coupons you'll pay 4.50 and get back a 3.00 catalina which makes them net only .25 each.

Tennessee Pride Sausage Gravy is 1.00. Use the .55 off 1 coupon from the 11/16 Redplum insert to get them free!!

Betty Crocker Frostings are 1.50. Use the .50 off 1 coupon from the 11/16 Smartsource insert to pay .50 each. Plus you can load a .55 off 1 coupon here to your Kroger Plus Card and get one free after paper coupon and e-coupon!!

Green Giant Boxed Vegetables are 1.00. Use the .50 off 2 coupon from the 11/16 Smartsource insert to pay 1.00 for 2 (.50 each). Plus you can load a .50 off 2 coupon here and pay .50 for two boxes (.25 each) after paper coupon and e-coupon.

Bird's Eye Steamfresh frozen vegetables are 1.00. Use the .35 off 1 coupon from the 10/12 Smartsource insert to pay .30 each.

Kroger has their turkey's on sale this week also. If you buy a Riverside, Honeysuckle or Butterball turkey you can get 7.00 off for a turkey that weighs between 10 and 16lbs or you can get 12.00 off for a turkey that weights more than 18lbs. I got two one for our Thanksgiving dinner and one just for another dinner down the road. I got an almost 13lb Riverside one for 7.73 and an around 11lb one for 5.78. Those come out to about .59 a pound.

Fresh celery is .69 each.

Those are the deals I found while shopping this past two days. If you found more, please share with us!!!

I'll have my Thrifty Thanksgiving post ready tomorrow, so stop back for that!!! Have a good week!!

Kroger, Meijer, CVS & Thanksgiving - A Cornucopia of Info!!

This picture has nothing to do with this post and since I didn't really have a picture that did go with this post, I thought I'd just share this one!! These are paper mache frogs (well paper mache covered tissue boxes!!) that we made while reading Aesop's Fable, The Frogs Who Wished for a King!! Aren't they cute???


Just A Note:

Kroger is doing the Mega Event again this week, so if you still have coupons, head on over to there and get some more great deals. There were a few coupons in this past weeks paper that you can use, like Tylenol Rapid Release Gels and Hormel Pepperoni.



I made a quick look over Meijer's ad online and didn't see a whole lot. They have Bob Evan's Frozen Breakfasts on sale 1/2 price and with coupons that could be a good deal. Also certain Lysol cleaning products are 1/2 price, and again you could use coupons on that for a good deal.



I will be shopping on Friday this week, so after that I'll know a little more about what's out there. I should have my list ready sometime tomorrow, and I'll share that so you can see what I'm planning to purchase.



Other than that, you can stop over at CVS for Palmolive dish soap .24 after coupon and ECB, a free bottle of Smart Water (after ECB) and a Garnier Shampoo or Conditioner free after coupon and ECB.



Have a great week!!!

PS: I'm working on a Thrifty Thanksgiving post, as I've now decided to undertake my first full Thanksgiving meal for my husband's family. This should be interesting!!!

Let me tell ya, on trick or treat night, the stores are empty!!! We stopped by Target and Meijer after we did one hour of the two hour trick or treat time and found both stores eerily quiet!!

Plus we used a total of 5.50 in Catalinas from previous orders. My husband paid 1.03 for his order and I paid 2.63 for a total of only 3.66!! And if that wasn't good enough, we got back another 5.00 in Catalina's, a 3.00 off 3 Johnson's coupon and a 4.00 off 20.00 in general merchandise coupon (good for Christmas presents!!)

Just to recap, because I was pretty proud of this one!! We paid 3.66 and got back 5.00!! We came out ahead 1.34 and brought home all these products!! Now that's what I'm talking about!!

Tonight I did some shopping. I made a stop at Kroger and Meijer. Here's some deals I found:

Meijer:

If you buy 3 Jell-O's which are on sale for .50 each, you can use the 1.50 off 2 coupon from Meijer Mealbox (they may or may not adjust the coupon down to 1.00 because that's what the actual price for two is) so you'll pay either .50 of 0 and then you'll get a 2.00 catalina (coupon that prints at the register for use on your next order). So you'll be ahead either 1.50 or 2.00!!

Fleischman's 3-pk yeasts are on sale for .95. Use the .45 off 1 coupon from the 10/5 Smartsource insert to pay only .05 each. And then you'll get a catalina for .50 off your next order, so you'll be ahead .45!!!

So if you bought 3 Jell-O's, 1 yeast strip, 2 veggies and 2 ice creams, you'll pay 2.31 (or 2.81 if they only take off 1.00 for the Jell-O's) and get back 2.50 in Catalina's!!!

Those are the best deals I found today! I hope it helps and you have a great shopping week!!

Meijer - A Few More Deals for This Week 10/19 - 10/25

I went back to Meijer this morning, hoping to get some more Smucker's Uncrustables for free, but they were still out, so I got a raincheck. I'm checking again on Saturday and if they're still out, getting another raincheck, so hopefully I can get a few more of those. Anyway, as I walked around for a few minutes, I found a few more deals to note.

Snyders of Hanover Tortilla Chips are buy one get one free. They are priced at 2.89. Plus most of the bags I saw had a coupon stuck to them for a free Soda (up to 1.00) when you buy 2. So I got two bags of chips and one 2-liter of soda for 2.89 total.

Goodlife Recipe 4lb Dog Food is priced at 4.19. I used 2.00 off 1 coupons from the 8/24 Redplum insert and paid only 2.19 each.

Carnation Evaporated Milk is .99. I used .50 off 2 coupons from the 9/14 Redplum insert and paid .49 each. These will come in handy with my .79 cans of pumpkin from Aldi's for some yummy (and cheap!!) pies!!

I did the Buddies Soap deal which has been around for awhile, but I finally did it!! I got 3 Buddies soaps @ 1.09 each. I used the 3.00 off 3 coupon from the 9/14 Smartsource insert and paid .27 total and then got a Catalina (coupon that prints at the register) for 3.00 off 3 more Johnson products. So I can use that to do the deal again!

Gum Kids Toothbrushes 2 pack (themed on Crayola and really cute!!) are priced at 1.43 and 1.57. I used the .75 off any 1 Gum toothbrush from the 8/3 Redplum insert and paid .43 or .57 each. I usually get great deals on adult toothbrushes at CVS or Walgreens, but rarely for kids toothbrushes, so I got a few packs of these.

I also saw that Oral-B adult toothbrushes are 1.47 and if you use the .75 off 1 coupon from a recent P&G insert to pay only .47 for those. I didn't get those because I have tons of adult toothbrushes right now that I've gotten free, so I left my 2 coupons there for someone else to use!!

Well that's the deals I found today! I hope everyone has a great day!! Thanks for stopping by!

My Shopping Trip - 10/20 (Kroger, CVS, Walgreens, Meijer)

Ok, I went shopping today! I hit Kroger, CVS, Walgreens and Meijer. Here's what I was able to round up. I wanted to stay under my $45 cash allowance and I made it!!!


Kroger:



I got 8 Nesquick Milks. Sale Price 1.00. I used .50 off 1 coupons. Paid 0

5 Celestial Seasonings Teas. Sale Price 1.00. Used 1.00 off 1 coupons. Paid 0

4 Brut Deodorants. Sale Price 1.00. Used .50 off 1 coupons. Paid 0

1 Febreze Noticeable Starter Kit. Sale Price 6.89. Used 5.00 off 1 paper coupon and 5.00 off 1 loadable coupon. Paid 0, got 3.11 in overage.

2 Tennessee Pride Sausage Rolls. Sale Price 2.00. Used .50 off 1 coupons. Paid 1.00 each.

2 Green Giant Frozen Vegetables. Sale Price 1.00. Used .50 off 2 paper coupon and .50 off 2 loadable coupon. Paid .25 each.

8 Cans of Campbell's Kids Soups. Sale Price 1.00. Used .40 off 2 coupons. Paid .60 each.

1 2lb Velveeta. Paid 4.48. (I need it for a recipe I want to try!)


I paid around 7.xx.


CVS:


I got 3 2-packs of Gum Toothbrushes. Priced at 3.99 each. I used .75 off 1 coupons. Paid 3.24 each and got back 3.99 in ECB's for each one (11.97 total).

1 Powerade. Priced at 1.69. Got 1.69 in ECB's back.

2 Brach's Candy Corns. Priced at 1.29. Got back 1.29 in ECB's each (2.58 total).

1 Just for Men Hair Color Kit. Priced at 7.99. Got 7.99 in ECB's back.

2 Excedrin Express Gels 20ct. Priced at 1.99 each. I used two 2.00 off 1 printables and one 3.00 off 1 CRT (CVS coupon at bottom of receipt).

1 3pk of CVS paper towels. Priced at 1.99. I used 1.00 off 1 CRT.


So I ended up spending around 19.00 (18 in ECB's and 1 in cash) and got back 24.23 in ECB's.


Walgreens:


For some reason (ok I really know, it's because it's WALGREENS, when will I ever learn that Walgreens is just too difficult for me!!), not all of my deals worked. I didn't realize it until later and I'm just too tired to worry about it at this point. Oh well. Here's what I got:

4 bags of Mars Candy. Sale priced at 4 for 10. I used two 1.00 off 2 coupons. Paid 8.00 and will submit for 4.00 rebate.

3 Maalox Tablets. Priced at 4.99. I used 2.00 off 1 coupons. Paid 8.97 and got back 8.00 in Register Rewards.

3 bottles of Tylenol Cold. Priced at 4.99. I used 1.00 off 1 manufacturer coupons and 1.50 off 1 coupon from Easy Saver Booklet. Paid 7.50 and got back 5.00 in Register Rewards.

1 Alka Seltzer plus Cold. Priced at 4.99. I used 1.00 off 1 coupon from some booklet I got a while back. Paid 3.99. Was supposed to get back 4.99 in Register Rewards, but didn't!

2 Visine Drops. Priced at 2 for 8.00. Used 3.00 off 1 coupons from All You Magazine. Paid 2.00. Got back 2.00 in Register Rewards.

2 St. Ives Elements Face Cleansers. Priced at 4.99 each. Used buy one get one free coupon. Paid 4.99. Was supposed to get 5.00 in Register Rewards, but didn't!! ($10 total that I missed out on!!)

I used a 5.00 Register Reward from a previous transaction and still ended up with some great deals, so that's why I'm not too worried about it. It's just frustrating that nearly everytime I go to Walgreens, I end up with problems. I guess it's the price I have to pay for the cheap products!! Anyway, I ended up paying 8.00 in cash after coupons, my 5.00 register reward and the balance of my gift card from last month.
Meijer:


6 Boxes of Aunt Millies Muffins. Priced at 2.00 (they raised the price from 1.50 boo-hoo!!). Used .50 off 1 coupons. Paid 1.00 each.

3 bags of Hershey candy. Priced at 1.88 each. I used 1.00 off 3 coupon. Paid 1.55 each.

2 bags of Nestle candy. Priced at 1.88 each. I used 1.00 off 1 printable coupons. Paid .88 each.

3 cans of Manwich. Priced at .99 each. Plus I got a free package of Aunt Millie Hamburger Buns for buying 3 cans.

4 Lipton/Knorr Pasta Sides. Priced at 1.00 each. I used .75 off 2 coupons. Paid .50 each.

2 Domino Brown Sugars and 2 Domino Powdered Sugars. Priced at 1.50 each. I used .50 off 1 coupons. Paid .50 each.!!

2 Domino 5lb bags of Sugar. Priced at 2.50. I used .50 off 1 coupons. Paid 1.50 each.

4 Gallons of Milk (not pictured). Paid 2.50 each.

2 1/2 Gallons of Trauth Ice Cream (not pictured). Priced at 2.74 each. I used 1.00 off 1 coupons. Paid 1.74 each.

1 Loaf of Aunt Millie Bread. Paid 1.19.
2 Smuckers Uncrustables. Priced at 1.49 each. I used 1.00 off 2 coupon found in Meijer insert at the store and two .55 off 1 coupons. Paid 0!!


I used my four 4.00 off your next order coupons from the Glade Deal and paid 21.50 total. I had to break it up into 4 orders to make sure I could double all my coupons and use the 4 Catalinas. I stopped to get me and the kids 1.00 double cheeseburgers from McDonalds (we had free Nesquick to drink!!) and we also got one sheet of the Trick or Treat Coupons. After that lunch and all our shopping, I still have one dollar left!! I'm pretty proud of that!!!



I also wanted to note that Endust is half price at Meijer, making it 1.79. Use the 2.00 off 1 coupon to get it free!! My store was out of them!!

Meijer - Glade Scented Oil Warmers


Have you done the Glade deal at Meijer??? If not, then why not??? Maybe you're just like me and a bit slow!! Well after I saw it mentioned here and elsewhere a few times, I finally decided to figure out what I needed to do to get it and it's such a great deal, I'm so glad I finally got my act together!!


So you go to Meijer and buy 2 Glade Scented Oil Warmers priced at 4.69. Use the buy one get one free coupon from the 9/28 Smartsource insert and you'll pay 4.69 for two. Then at the register you'll get two catalina's (coupon that prints at the register, good for your next order) for 4.00 each (a total of 8.00)!!! Wow!


Now, the next time you visit Meijer you can use them to buy milk, produce or meat (or whatever else you choose of course!!). It's a great way to get things inexpensively that don't usually have coupons.


I only had 2 of the coupons because they came in an insert while I was on vacation. Thanks to my Mom for giving me the two I have!! But I now have 16.00 in coupons to use just using the two that I had!!


So get out and get some Glade Warmers!!!

An Explanation and a Few Kroger & Meijer Deals

Ok here goes:

Unfortunately, I won't be doing as many posts as I used to do. I just simply can't keep up with all the deals and all the other responsibilities I have at home. If I go a day or two without posting something, I feel really bad and I just can't keep feeling that way. I know it's my own fault for these feelings, but alas, I can't seem to help it.

After our vacation, I knew I was going to have to either cut back or let it go altogether and my decision at this point is to make a huge cut back. I get excited when I find those great deals (think freebies or nearly free) and truly want to share those with all of you and so that's what I intend to keep doing. It will most likely just be Kroger and Meijer deals that I post, because CVS and Walgreens deals are plentiful on the web.

Perhaps I'm really slow at it, but the big Kroger, Meijer and CVS posts that I usually do take at least an hour to do each. And while 3 hours a week may not seem like a lot, for some reason, it is just really hard for me to accomplish. So if you're about to head out to the store and want to make sure you don't miss a huge deal, then check here before going out and hopefully I'll have what you need. Otherwise, hotcouponworld is a great place to find all the everyday regular deals.

I hope you understand. After lots of prayer and consideration, it has just become clear to me that I can't do all that I've "signed up" to do at this point and some things need to be cut back so that the really important things can have my most and best attention. Thanks to all of you, I truly appreciate each and every reader out there!!

So anyway, here's some awesome deals I found this morning at Kroger and Meijer:

Meijer:
Green Giant Valley Fresh Steamers Frozen Vegetables are on sale for 1.00. Use the 1.00 off 1 coupon from the 10/5 General Mills insert (they were also in another insert, but I can't find the date of it right now) to get them free!!!

Hillshire Farms Smoked Sausage and Links are on sale for 1.39. Use the 1.00 off 2 smoked sausage to get two packs for 1.78 (.89 each) or use the .55 off 1 links coupon to get them for .39 each (after coupon doubles)!!! Both coupons are from the 10/5 Redplum insert. That is just an awesome price for those, I stocked up today and Meijer still had tons of them for all of you!!

Orville Redenbacher popcorn is half price making it 1.59. Use the 1.00 off 1 Naturals variety from the 9/21 Smartsource to get that for .59 or use the .40 off 1 coupon from the 10/12 insert to get the regular varieties for .79 each.

Kroger:
Muir Glen Tomato Pastes are on sale for .75. Use the .75 off 1 coupon from the 9/28 Smartsource insert to get it free!!!

Tennessee Pride Rolled Sausage is 2.00. Use the .55 off 1 coupon from the 9/7 Redplum insert to get them for 1.00 each!!

I found clearanced Cascadian Farms frozen vegetables in a bin by the meat department priced at .99. I used the 1.00 off 1 coupon from the 8/24 Smartsource insert to get them free!!! There were lots of them left. They also had other brands of organic frozens on clearance as well. This was at the Maineville Kroger on 48.

Those are the awesome deals I found today. Thanks for being so understanding. If I find more of those great deals, I'll post them, otherwise check the comments section for reader found deals and have a great week!!

Meijer - Free Dixie Napkins


I stopped into Meijer today to pick up my canned veggies and fresh apples and decided to make some Math problems for my kids to do while at the store. That meant that we had to go down all the aisles, so they could find what they were looking for to complete their problems and while down the paper goods aisle, I found Dixie 50ct Napkins on sale for 1.00. And if you use the .50 off 1 coupon from the 8/17 Redplum insert they'll be free after the coupon doubles!!

Meijer - Deals for Week of 10/5


Meijer is having a huge Meijer brand sale this week, and other than that, I really don't see much else to post about. There's a few good deals within the Meijer brand that I'll probably pick up including:
  • Canned Vegetables @ 3 for $1
  • Milk @ 2.50 a gallon
  • 1/4 peck of Apples for 2.49 (appx. 3 1/2 - 3 3/4 lbs) which comes out to close to .75 a lb.
Also the Knorr Sides are 1.00. Use the .75 off 2 coupon from today's (10/5) insert to get two packs for 1.00 (.50 each).

Those are really the best deals I see for Meijer this week. Not a lot, but a good opportunity to stock up on veggies!! And maybe even make some great apple recipes!! With the prices going up as they are, I'm thankful for every deal I'm offered!!

Meijer - A Few Deals For This Week - 9/28

I finally made it out to Meijer today and saw a few deals I thought I'd share! You may already know about them, since it is Thursday already, but here goes anyway!!

Ronzoni Smart Taste Pasta is on sale for .99. Use the 1.00 off 1 coupon (it will automatically adjust down to .99) from the 8/24 Smartsource insert to get it free!!

Hunt's Canned Tomato Products are all on sale. There is a .40 off 2 coupon you can use from the 9/21 Smartsource to make this a great deal. I got cans of tomato sauce (the bigger cans) for .32 each after coupon and cans of diced tomatoes for .42 each after coupon. Note: the small cans of tomato sauce and paste won't work with the coupon because they have to be 11oz.

Mott's Apple Juice is 1.89. Use the 1.00 off 2 coupon from the 8/10 Smartsource insert to get two for 2.78 (1.39 each).

Aunt Millie's Whole Grain Muffins are still priced at 1.50 and I used the .50 off 1 coupon from the 8/10 Redplum insert to pay only .50 each. Someone commented previously that they didn't like the way the muffins were, but I loved them. We took two boxes with us on our trip and the kids and I all loved them. I found them to be very soft and moist and just delicious, so I bought two more boxes today!!

Alot of Meijer Organics products are on sale this week. We're trying to incorporate more organic products into our diet, so this was a great chance to get some different things to try out and see how we like them!

Well that's all I saw today, please share anything you've found as well!!

Thanks
