Air wick I motion air freshners at Target

As of this afternoon, the Target on Emerald and Milwaukee had 10 or so still in stock. They are located on an endcap toward the vacuum supplies and things like that. When I tried to purchase them the cashier said it wouldn't accept the coupon because it was more than the price of the item. After i made my other purchases, i went to customer service to see if they could explain it to me. They tried it again and it worked for them, but we had to ring each item up individually. The cashier told me, "When people are kind we really try to help them and get things working for them."

Pillsbury at Albies?

Just wondering how your stores are looking as far as stock on the Pillsbury goodness? OR any of the items in the General Mills Promo?

Tillamook Butter at Freds

I sent my hubby to do some coupon shopping at Freds today (he only called me seven times while at the store).

They were all out of the Franz Wheat Bread ($1) and the Salted Tillamook Butter ($1.25) - this was at the Freds at 5&O. I'm not sure when they restock, and I wasn't about to send him to go inquire. Ha ha!

Anyone know? How is your store looking?

ps - here is the Little Miss...

Seventh Generation



Yay! Seventh Generation products are 40% off again this week at Fred Meyer.

Go to www.seventhgeneration.com to print out some great coupons. (You need to register with them first and then each coupon can be printed twice.)

It feels great to be stocking up on these environmentally-friendly tissues for just $0.31 each!

:( No Albertson's doublers on today's papers

I heard a rumor we were getting Albies doublers today.. I didn't get any, do you think maybe on wednesday?

Organic apples at Fred Meyer

I just saw this and am kind of excited about it. Organic apples are on sale at Fred Meyers this week. Almost all the different kinds were $0.98/lb except for Honeycrisp which were $1.88/lb. I don't buy everything organic, but love to get organic apples when they are a decent price!

(FYI - I did a little research in the past and discovered that you get the biggest benefit from buying organic for fruits and veges where you are eating the skin. So if you have limited $ it is better to spend it on organic apples and grapes than on organic bananas and oranges.)

Red Wine Vinegar


I was just at Fred-Meyer and noticed that Pompeian Red Wine Vinegar had a bunch of those bright orange store coupons next to them: 2/$3.00 (limit 4) ...

... AND some of the bottles of vinegar themselves had manufacturer instant savings peelies on the caps. Some were $0.50 off and some were $1.00 off! ...

...which all equals some pretty decent quality red wine vinegar for $0.50 to a $1.00 each!

Cereal, Oatmeal, Pasta... Oh MY!

I've been running errands all day today, and amongst my travels, I would stop by the nearest Albies to check out their stock.

Here is what I found:

17th & State - good stock on hand, although it was 11:00 am when I went by. I didn't make it to the other side of the store to see if there was a large display though - Had a full shelf of the Dinosaur Egg oatmeal.

Meridian/Cherry - they have a large display of all the Quaker items PLUS the Ronzoni pasta (that you can get for $.20 after the coupon!). They had a great supply and this was as of 8:00 tonight. (No Dino Egg oatmeal)

Five Mile/Overland - my sister was there and said they have a large display and plenty of cereal and oatmeal, although no Dinosaur Egg oatmeal.

Orchard/Overland - no large display, just end cap displays. Plenty of pasta on the shelves, although again, no Dino Egg oatmeal!

How is your store looking? If you're wanting the Dinosaur Egg oatmeal I'd suggest getting a rain check or placing an order (my kids love this, but I ALWAYS add some of the plain oatmeal to it to "water down" the sugar effect and make it stretch a little longer).

Organic Chicken

I don't buy everything organic, but we are partial to organic chicken which I can NEVER seem find on sale.

Today, I was very excited to see that CostCo is awarding a $4.00 instant rebate (per package - limit 5) on their boneless and skinless organic chicken breasts.

If you buy the lightest packages this knocks the price down from $5.99/lb (what they seem to cost just about everywhere) to about $4.25 to $4.50/lb.

This certainly can't compete with Albertson's $1.79/lb deal on non-organic chicken breasts - but if you like your chicken organic, head over to CostCo!

Good time to use Pillsbury brownies coupons..

Albies has them for $1.00 per box. If you use you doublers you only pay tax, if not they are $.50 per box, still a good deal. Time to stock up on brownies!

Free Nature's Source laundry stain remover at Albies!

I was so excited about the peanut butter I forgot I had one more freebie for you! I was at the Meridian & Fairview Albies today to buy some Nature's Source items for this rebate I told you about. Through tomorrow there is a cat on the Nature's Source get $2 OYNSO when you buy 2. The laundry stain remover has a shelf tag of $3.99, but it is ringing up $2.99! I assume it will do this at all stores. (Did you know the self-check outs have a price check option? Just look at the bottom center of the opening screen. Push the "Price Inquiry" button.) So buy 2, use 2 Nature’s Source Natural Cleaner, any $1/1 (11-7-09) SS1-9/13 coupons and 2 doublers, pay $1.98 for 2, get $2 OYNSO. If you use them as two of your 3 items for the rebate, you're looking at a potential money maker!

(p.s. This works on the whole line of nature's Source cleaners. I did some price checking.)

Free Crescent Rolls at Freddies & a Cherry & 10 Mile Albies Money Maker!

I have been a busy little bargain bee today. Remember this Fabulessy Frugal post with info on the Pilsbury catalina & coupon links? Crescent rolls are 3 for $5 this week at Freddies. (I can confirm that the catalina is working there!) So, buy 3 Crescent rolls and use 3 $1/1 IPs, pay $2, get back $2 OYNSO = free crescent rolls! My kids love these :)

Also, the Cherry & 10 Mile Albies has their Skippy on bonus buy for $1.50 ea. I noticed on PYP's catalina thread Skippy Natural (brown lid) is giving $1 OYNSO when you buy 2. In fact, the promo is listed twice with two different end dates. Guess what! Both are running! So, go to Cherry & 10 Mile and buy 2 Skippy Naturals, use a .75/2 coupon from yesterday's paper and a doubler pay $1.50 for 2, get back 2- $1 OYNSO cats = $.50 MM! Remember to buy in 2's. There's a display of Skippy in the back of the store near the yogurt. I didn't see any of the creamy, but there were about 5 cases of the chunky. Go clean them out, Ladies! :) This is only going to work through tomorrow, then one of the cats is ending.

Nestle Toll House

If you're looking for doublers ideas for Albies, the Nestle Toll House refrigerated cookie dough is $2 right now, free if you double your $1 off coupon.

Totino's Pizza

After buying 8 of these at Fred meyer today price was $1.15 then $1/4 turned it to each being .90. Then I looked in the Pauls ad and saw same thing on sale for .88 each. With $1/4 that would take it down to .63 per pizza - that isn't too bad I don't think.

Is this a good deal?

In today's newspaper on A10 there is a Fred Meyer coupon for Hamburger helper for .69 for 1st 6. I have coupon for .75/3. That would put them at .44 each. I am new to this, is this as good deal?

Thanks,
Sheri

HOT POCKETS AND LEAN POCKETS

Last week I was trying to find some things to double at Albertsons. I ran into hot pockets and lean pockets for $2.00. I believe last week we got coupons for .75/1. Though they have to be on a breakfast lean or hot pocket,I thought on Sunday when they double that will make them .50! I have not heard of anyone posting this. Hope I am not repeating something!Remember to share:)
