Coupon Booklet

I ran into Albertsons today and found a coupon book at their customer service desk with over $15 worth of coupons in it. I'm not sure if this is a new book, or if it is only available at Albertsons...usually books like this can be found at a variety of different grocery stores. I wanted to give you guys a heads up so you can be on the lookout for it.

Coupons inside are:
-$1.00 off any two Nature Valley Granola Bars
-$1.00 off any one bag of Nature Valley Granola Nut Clusters
-$1.00 off any one box of Fiber One 90 Calorie Chewy Bars
-$1.00 off any two bags of Chex Mix
-$1.00 off any two boxes of Betty Crocker Fruit snacks
-$1.00 off any Wanchai Ferry Frozen Entree
-$1.00 off any three Hamburger/Tuna/Chicken Helper
-$1.00 off any two Betty Crocker Potatoes
-$1.00 off any eight Yoplait Yogurt cups
-$1.00 off any one box of Chocolate Cheerios
-$1.00 off any one box (40 oz. or larger) of Bisquick
-$1.00 off any one box of Wheaties Cereal
-$1.00 off any one box of Fiber One Cereal
-$1.00 off any two boxes of Pillsbury Toaster Strudel Pastries
-$1.00 off any Yoplait Delights Yogurt Multipack
-$1.00 off any three packages of Pillsbury Cookie Dough
-$1.00 off any one Betty Crocker Warm Delights Bowls
-$1.00 off any Yoplait Frozen Smoothie
-$1.00 off both Betty Crocker Cake Mix and Frosting

Be on the lookout for these...it is rare to find coupons for $1.00 of ONE box of cereal. The $1.00 off Betty Crocker Warm Delights Bowls would get you those FREE at Walgreens this week. Hope you are able to find these!!

Great Coupon!

I thought I had posted this earlier, but I was looking through my posts and I didn't see it...so either I am completely blind or else I'm losing it a bit :)

Anyway, this is an older deal, but for those of you who didn't do this when it first came out, it is still available.

If you go to www.contadina.com and register on their site...there IS a spot to check that you don't want email from them, so you don't have to worry about junk email...you'll be able to print out a coupon for $0.75 off any 3 Contadina products. After the coupon prints, if you hit the back key a couple of times, you will be able to print this coupon out a second time. (Note, it will say that the webpage has expired, but continue to hit the back button...it will automatically reprint).

8 oz. cans of Contadina Tomato Sauce are priced at $0.38 at Wal-Mart (at least the last time I checked). If you buy 3 cans and use one $0.75 off coupon, you'll end up paying $0.39...or $0.13 a can...a GREAT stock up price!!

Another Great Place to Find Coupons

By now you know that most of the coupons I use come from the newspaper, or various online sites. I realized that I forgot to mention another great place to find coupons. There's a magazine that is sold exclusively at Wal-Mart called all you. This magazine is stocked full of coupons!! It costs $2.99, but usually has over $50.00 worth of coupons in it...example, I just picked up April's issue, and on the cover it says that it has $81.55 worth of coupons inside.
Here's a list of some of the coupons you can expect to find inside the April issue of all you to help you decide if it's worth purchasing or not.

Couple of great deals!

I ran by Target today and saw that they have their Campbells Cream of Mushroom Soup and Cream of Chicken Soup priced at $0.75. If you use the $1.00 off 2 coupon that I posted about earlier...you'll be able to get each can for $0.25!! You should be able to print off 2 of these coupons...so 4 cans for a dollar!!
If you didn't have a chance to print the coupons earlier, they are found at
www.campbellkitchen.com/coupon.aspx
(I'm not sure why my computer won't let you simply click on the link above)...you can either copy/paste it into your address bar, or handtype it...sorry! I am not good with computers at all!!

Another great deal is on dog food at Wal-Mart...In the San Antonio newspaper on Sunday were two coupons that will get you free dogfood!! One of the coupons is for a Free 5.5 oz can of Purina Mighty Dog Food(you don't have to purchase anything... ABSOLUTELY FREE!!) The second coupon is for $3.00 off any 5 5.5 oz cans of Purina Mighty Dog Food. These are priced at $0.57 at Wal-Mart...so if you use this coupon, you'll get 5 cans ABSOLUTELY FREE.
I sure hope you didn't throw these coupons away. We don't have a dog, but I went ahead and did this deal...got 36 cans of dog food for FREE!! We are going to be making a trip to the Animal Shelter to donate the food. If you don't have pets, think about buying this and donating it, either to the Animal Shelter, or to a family that has pets!!

Hope you are able to get some good deals!!
