Coupon for Parkay



There's a coupon available for $0.50 off when you buy one Parkay product. You can print this coupon off here. I found this coupon using zip code 76904 and clicking on the Foods Category.

It seems like Parkay is not very expensive, so we should get a good deal with this coupon. Remember that if you decide to use this coupon at Albertsons it will double and be worth $1.00

Albertsons Trip

I ran to Albertsons today to get some FREE milk from the Kellogg's cereal deal a couple of weeks ago. I bought everything pictured below and spent...



$0.50!! I had to do 2 separate transactions because Albertsons will only double/triple 4 like coupons per transaction.

Transaction 1:

1 gallon of milk $2.76
-used catalina coupon for FREE gallon of milk
Final Price: FREE

4 Dial Hand Soap $1.00
-used coupon for $0.35 off Dial Hand Soap (found in 3/13 RedPlum insert) (tripled)
Final Price: FREE

(Note...this week Albertsons has select Dial hand soap on sale BOGO. I walked down the aisle and found that the ones that were on BOGO were priced at $2.99, so with 2 coupons I'd end up spending $0.89 for 2. I walked around the Health and Beauty aisles and found a display of Dial hand soap on sale for $1.00. I went with the cheaper alternative. )

Transaction #2:

1 gallon milk $2.76
-used catalina coupon for FREE gallon of milk
Final Price: FREE

1 Dial Hand Soap $1.00
-used coupon for $0.35 off Dial Hand Soap (found in 3/13 RedPlum insert) (tripled)
Final Price: FREE

1 Yoplait Kids Yogurt (4 pack) $2.00
-had Albertsons coupon for $0.50 off because of quick sale
-used coupon for $0.50 off Yoplait Kids Yogurt (found in 3/6 SmartSource) (doubled)
Final Price: $0.50

HEB--Catalina Deal on YoCrunch Yogurt


While I was at HEB I noticed a hang tag next to the YoCrunch yogurt. It said:

Buy 6 YoCrunch Low Fat Yogurt and receive a $0.75 coupon off any HEB brand product.

The individual cups were priced at $0.58. There were coupons for $0.35 off 1 YoCrunch Fruit Parfaits or Greek Cups in the April 3rd SmartSource insert. There were also coupons for $0.75 off YoCrunch Fruit Parfait Packs in that insert as well.

I didn't look around too carefully at this deal, but wanted to give you guys a heads up in case you were planning on buying some yogurt in the next few days. I've never tried this, but it sure looks yummy!

HEB--$0.94 for a Loaf of Bread

There is an HEB, yellow in store coupon available for $0.75 off HEB Bakeshop White Bread. This bread is priced at $1.69, so just $0.94 after coupon. The coupon doesn't expire until the 26th of April.

HEB--FREE Uncle Ben's Ready Rice


I went to HEB this morning and was happy to find that Uncle Ben's Ready Rice is on sale for $0.99. There was a coupon for $1.00 off any Uncle Ben's Ready Rice in the February 20th RedPlum insert...which means FREE rice!!!

There were a lot of different varieties to choose from. If you are interested in this deal then you will need to go to the store today or tomorrow because the coupon expires tomorrow, April 17.

San Angelo--Donations Needed for Those Fighting Fire

For those of you in San Angelo, TX, I am sure you have been hearing reports of the wild fires that are getting a little too close for comfort. I wanted to take a minute to let you know that the ASU Police Department is taking up donations for those fighting the fires.

I received this update from my church's email/prayer list:

NEEDED: Gatorade, snacks, eye drops, water, chap stick, cash for gas for GCVFD (Grape Creek Volunteer Fire Department), and any other items that might be of assistance to the firefighters and volunteers who are working around the clock to preserve lives and property.Until 5:00 PM today, Friday, the ASU Police Department mobile operations trailer will be set up in the Foster Field parking lot near the LeGrand Alumni and Visitors Center, 1620 University, for collection of these items to be delivered to the appropriate location(s) as designated by emergency management officials. Please do not go by any of the local fire departments to deliver as they are extremely busy.

If you happen to have any of these items on hand in your stockpile, or have time/money to go buy some of these items I am sure that they would be so thankful for any little thing we can do to help.

If you aren't able to help, or don't live in the area please continue to pray for the families that are affected by this fire and for the safety of all those who are fighting this fire.

Coupons for Cuties



My boys LOVE Cuties. They aren't big on eating oranges, but give them 1, 2, or 3 of these and they keep asking for more. This is one item that I buy regularly...sale or not, coupon or not.

That being said, I am really excited about these coupons. In the 4/3 SmartSource insert there were coupons for:

$1.50 off a 5 lb. box of Cuties
$0.75 off a 3 lb. bag of Cuties

Every so often I will find these on quick sale at HEB, with coupon that could make for a GREAT deal. Whether I find a sale or not, you know I'll be clipping these coupons and bringing my cuties some Cuties home!

Albertsons--Deal on Easter Candy


I mentioned getting a good deal on Easter Candy at Walgreens last night. I know that our drugstores don't always have a large supply of sale items, and I also know that a lot of people don't shop at drugstores. You should be able to get a good deal on Snickers Creme Eggs at Albertsons this week.

Snickers Creme Egg on sale Buy one get one FREE (Again, I am not sure what these are priced at)
-use coupon for $1.00 off 2 Mars Easter Products (found in 3/20 and 4/10 RedPlum inserts)


It seems like these are regularly priced at $0.59 - $0.79 at Walgreens and CVS, so I am guessing they will be priced similarly at Albertsons. If so, you should be able to get some FREE candy to fill up Easter Baskets.

Albertsons--Deal on Dial Hand Soap


I overlooked this deal last night, but I wanted to make you guys aware of it.

Dial Complete Hand Soap is on sale Buy one Get one Free this week at Albertsons. I am not sure what this is priced at.
-use coupon for $0.35 off one Dial Bar Pack or Dial Liquid Hand Soap (found in 3/13 RedPlum insert) (will triple)

Remember at Albertsons you should be able to use TWO of these coupons. Once both coupons are tripled, you will have a savings of $2.10 ON TOP of the BOGO sale. This should make for some inexpensive Hand Soap. I am down to my last few bottles of soap, so I'll definitely be taking advantage of this deal.

If you know what these are priced at, please leave a comment below.

Note...some newspapers did not receive the coupon for $0.35 off 1...instead they received a coupon for $1.00 off 3.

Coupon for Red Gold Tomatoes



I mentioned this coupon in the Albertsons Ad/Coupon Match Up, but I wanted to make sure to highlight it so you will be sure not to miss it.

There is a coupon for $0.50 off 2 Red Gold Tomato Products that you can print here. In my opinion this is a great coupon.

This week Albertsons has the large cans of Red Gold Tomatoes on sale for $1.00. I have also seen the 15 oz. cans of tomatoes priced around $0.79 at Albertsons. Once this coupon is doubled you should be able to get a great deal on some tomatoes that you can keep on hand in your pantry.

You should be able to print this coupon off twice. You will have to register before printing.

HEB Ad/Coupon Match Up (April 13 - 19)


Before I begin the coupon match up, I just wanted to mention that if you did the Betty Crocker Catalina deal that I mentioned earlier, you will be able to use the $2.00 off any HEB brand product catalina on any of the deals that require you to buy an HEB brand product. I will not be including that in the following match ups because I don't know that a lot of people took advantage of that deal. If you did the deal, then of course use those catalinas...to get the best deal from them, use them on a meal deal or combo loco.

It is looking like a pretty slow week at HEB...not a lot of manufacturer's coupons that match up with in store deals.

I HAVE NOT tried this and I am not even sure if they have gift cards, but if they do this should be a pretty good deal.

Easter Candy Galore!

It seems like every year when I am buying candy for Easter baskets/Christmas stockings I am just blown away by how much candy costs. I went to Walgreens today to see if I could find any good deals to fill up Easter baskets. I was able to purchase everything below, and I spent...



$0.60...and for those of you with no Register Rewards, I did it using zero Register Rewards.

I purchased:
1 Easter Egg filled with M&Ms/Snickers $0.75
1 Snickers Creme Filled Egg $0.29
-used coupon for $1.00 off 2 Mars Easter Candy (found in 3/20 and 4/10 RedPlum inserts)
Final Price: $0.04 for both

After using the coupons, I ended up paying $0.02 for each piece of candy...a definite STOCK UP price. I had quite a few coupons...some from the newspapers (purchased and given to me) and some from printable coupons (no longer available).

Note...I did this in 3 different transactions. There is a limit of 6 Snickers Creme Eggs priced at $0.29 per transaction, so I had to break up my trip.

I went to the Walgreens across from HEB, and they had a large supply of candy. This sale will go through Saturday night, so if you are interested you might want to head over there.
The last few days have been kind of crazy around here...sick kiddos, doctors appointments, and life in general. That being said, I haven't had a lot of extra time to sit down and look at the new HEB and Albertsons ads. I will try to sit down tonight and get them done...sorry about the delay.
