Albertsons 1/27 & 1/28 : UPDATED

So if your family uses Kraft BBQ sauce, or Miracle Whip or kraft salad dressing Get to Albertsons today!

Kraft BBQ sauce is 1.25 a bottle when you buy 3 bottles you get 3.00 off instantly, making each bottle only .25. (some stores have coupon tear pads in that isle making them each a money maker!)

Miracle whip is 2/6.00 but when you buy 3 you get 3.00 off instantly which would be 3/6.00 2.00 each!(which isn't killer but it's a good price)

Dressing 2/4.00 " " making them 1.00 each and then there are 1.00/2 coupon making them .50 each!!!

It's mix and match you don't have to buy all 3 of one item!

______________________UPDATE________________________________

My Trip:


Kraft BBQ sauce: 1.25SP (x9)-3.00WYB 3 products (x3)= .25EACH



Miracle Whip 3.00SP (x3) -3.00WYB 3 products-.50/1 (x3)= 1.50EACH
Mayo: 3.00SP (x1) -.75MC
Kraft Salad Dressing: 2.00SP (x2) -3.00WYB 3 products (1 mayo, 2 dressing) -1.00/2 MC
so basically mayo 1.25 EACH Dressing .50 EACH

24 pk Spring Bottled water 3/10.00
6pk Spring Bottled Water 1.00
Total: 11.00 -10.00 Beer MIR = 81bottles for 1.00 plus tax!!! (GREAT for STOCKPILING!)
***items must be purchased before 2/01***

*so BEER rebates you ask... yeah I have heard about them, but never remembered to look. I guess in select stores you can find the rebate forms throughout the store. I have been told to look in the drink isle. I personally never remembered to look, today I ran into some back in the butcher shop, in the frozen pizza, bottled water, and one more spot... I can't remember.. ANYWAY
So I read it... no beer purchase neccessary. You can buy any of the following *on this particular rebate* salty snacks, buns, meat snacks, deli sandwhiches, ...ummm this is all from memory... Bottled water and pizza (there was a note next to the water and pizza that the purchase must be exceed 10.00)
So you buy any 10.00 worth of those items and you get 10.00 rebate back, 1 per household... and exceeding 10.00 is why I bought the 6pk to make sure it qualified for the rebate.

Also another idea is to get 10 hot dog or hamburger buns because they are on sale for 10/10.00 right now, OR digornio pizza is 2/10.00 AND when you buy 20.00 worth you get 5.00 off automatically... so you can do 20.00 -5.00 -10.00= 5.00 for 4 pizzas... that is a killer deal!

So check your stores before Feb. 1st for the rebate form, or I grabbed a few, I would be happy to mail anyone one who's store TRUELY doesn't have one, but save me the stamp and at least look first. the stuff just has to be postmarked by 2/15


This is yesterdays trip:

Albertsons 1/19: FREE MILK & BEANS

Ok, so today I had to run get groceries... seriously I had empty cupboards. I decided to skip Walgreens because I don't have any money budgeted for them this week, which is a good thing there wasn't really anything killer deal there either. MHO

So through Tue night at Albertsons if you buy 4 boxes of cereal (certain kinds) then you get a coupon printed for free milk up to $4.50. So I did a transaction with all my groceries including 3 boxes of Banana nut cheerios and 1 Fiber one cereal. Paid, got my coupon, had her run through my milk (I got the Meadow gold because it was the expensive kind and up to 4.50 you should be able to get the expensive kind.) ANYWAY. So cereal was 1.99 each x4=7.96-.75MCx4(3.00) = 4.96 for 4 boxes of cereal and 4.50 in milk. (BTW 3 of my coupons were printables... check out the printables I have on the sidebar to see if you can find the banana nut cheerios printables!!!)

When I did the milk it wouldn't let me check out because it took straight $4.50 off and the milk was only 3something. So I had her ring up another gallon of milk (the cheaper brand this time) to use the rest of the credit. So since you NOW know that it will take 4.50 off your milk total... NOT just UP TO 4.50, then you can get 1 Albertsons brand for 2.59 and 1 shoppers brand for 2.19 and basically get TWO FREE GALLONS OF MILK!!!

Which is a way better deal then I was originally set out to get. ANYWAY 6 items for 5.00 is a good deal! GO GET SOME MILK!


Then these Wild Harvest Black beans are on sale for 10/10.00 = 1.00 each. then use two PRINTABLES and they are FREE!!!

If you love Albertsons too!?!?

Last night while checking out my stash of diapers, I found a sample EASY UP *this is pampers version of a pull up* that I ordered probably through walmart a long time ago, anyway I noticed it said coupon inside. So I opened it and found 2 2.00 off a bag of easy ups... AND I also learned these are included in the Albertsons deal... So for potty training I ran and got the last 3 bags on the shelf of Easy ups. :) So for 6.00 more I got 3 bags of Easy ups. :) Still loving Albertsons! OH and If you do this deal and you get Cheerios and other Cereals... watch for more CAT coupons that are to be used on future cheerio coupons, I noticed I got two so far. 1.50/4boxes and 1.50/3 boxes... which can help for your foodstorage/stockpile whatever you want to call it!

why I heart Albertsons

I learned that there are things in the sale that aren't advertised and again, thanks to pinching your pennies who gave me a whole UPC list of what items were not advertised. Including (just to name a few) smaller bottles of Downy, Iams dog food, Dawn Simple Pleasures, Pampers diapers and wipes... anyway it's madness. I learned that along with the spend $30.00 and get 15 in CATS they have a deal if you spend $25.00 in baby products (that includes the Pampers diapers and wipes I mentioned above you get another $5 in CATS.

So this is what I bought

Pampers Diapers: $4.02 x3 -1.00/1MC x3 then -3.00double those coupons
TOTAL= 3.99 /3= 2.02EACH
(these coupons were in a blinkie in that isle right in front of the diapers!!!, GET EASIER!)
RP was 12.49 each


P.S. I did this transaction 3 times!!! (except I could only double 6 coupons not 9) so the first 6 bags were 2.02 each the last 3 were 3.02 each) 21.18 total for 9 bags, (reg price is 12.49 EACH!)

***to get the 4.02 starting price you calculate like this: SP 10.69 you need 3 of these to hit your 30.00 mark so 32.07 for all three, then you get 15CATS back for spending 30 and 5 more CATS for spending it in babystuff. so 32.07-20.00= 12.07 /3= 4.02 EACH before coupons then -6.00coupons=6.07/3= 2.02EACH*** Yes, we can think of the 20CATS as cash we didn't spend because although you spend it the first time you use the coupons for your second transaction and it's like it was cash, in the end you end up with one set of CATS left, BUT it's like you bought a 15 or 20 dollar gift card to Albertsons to use on reg. groceries... that's how it works. AND yes, correction you're not suppose to roll your CATS into your next purchase of diapers because technically Pampers is a Proctor and gamble co. but you can use it on the other items in the sale, like gogurts OR pretend you bought that many gifts cards for future use. OR (you like my many options?!?!) OR like me in my first transaction back when I didn't know anybetter anyway, my checker never gave me my CATS she kept them and scanned them automatically for my next set of 30.... or like yesterday... my cashier asked if I wanted to use them, I said no. they aren't allowed on PG items, and she told me SO they work! and I showed here where it said it right on the coupon (which I couldn't find that informatioin on the extra BABY5) anyway and she proceeded to tell me she would take them anyway etc and snitched them from my hands, but honestly I wasn't going to argue with a cashier in front of the line of people behind me... so whatever LOL

Wow sorry that was long winded...


Ok for my 4th transaction I got this
Pampers wipes 1.67x5= 8.35 no coupons but who needs them when they are on sale for 1.67 a refill???!?! (p.s. that is 1/2 the price we pay for the cheaper brand at COSTCO!)
and*not pictured* two gogurts at 1.25x2= 2.50-1.00 /2 = .75each

RP7.99 each

(I had to add the gogurts to make the 30.00 mark, and I wanted more and they were out of the type of wipes I wanted)

SO READY SET GO SHOPPING! THIS DEAL LASTS UNTIL TUESDAY AT MIDNIGHT!!!

Anyone confused, or need help, seriously I am so excited with what I have learned, I would be happy to share!!!Leave me a comment and let me know.
