Walgreens 5/1

There are some pretty good deals at Walgreens this week.  They can be a hard store to shop at, but Melissa said our local Fred Meyer will take the Walgreens Register Rewards!  I recommend ALWAYS checking at Fred Meyer first, just like she did.  It might depend on your store and manager?

Melissa's Deals! Send me YOUR pictures!

Melissa is a Coupon Queen!!  Here are just a few of the deals she is getting.  I know some of you are getting deals, too, so send me your pictures and details if you want to share!!  It's fun to "brag" to people who understand the coupon thing!!
At Walmart (Yelm) they actually had the $5 buzz operation games so I was able to get two of those, 3 formulas (money makers), purex (money maker) and the nail clippers (money maker) for .99!!!  (just partial tax, they owed me .09 after coupons)
I'm most proud of this couponing trip out of all of them so far. :o) 




At Target I spent a whopping $1.57 (all tax) which didn't even come out of my pocket.  I used the $5 Target G.C. I got with my Brita purchase the other day. :o)

Top Foods - produce, Tillamook, Organic Girl salad

Here are the Top Foods deals.  I have EXTRA $1 off Organic Girl coupons if you want one (exp 12/11)!  I also have extra .55 off Fresh Express coupons!

Grocery Outlet

Anyone shop at the Grocery Outlet?  Sometimes I love that place.  Today was one of those days.  They do not take coupons.  They have different stuff all of the time and you really have to look at the dates (to make sure thing aren't expired). 
I spent 29.82 on the above items and saved about $70.  I was REALLY excited about the Applegate turkey sandwich meat marked down to .99!  It can be up to $7.99 at other stores.  I got 8 of them.  Those were special markdown because they are dated for the 24th.  I put them straight in the freezer.  They have it for $2.95  there right now.  I also got organic cookies (1.49), Athenos greek yogurt (.50), 2 bottles of wine (2.99), a 60-pack of Nancy's all-natural mini quiches (4.99), Hershey's Bliss candy 1.99), Adelle's all natural breakfast sausage (3.99), dry black beans (.99) and plastic easter eggs (.99).
Let me know if you are a fan - or not!

Tomorrow last day for Albertson's double deals

Some weeks I don't do many double deals but this week I know I won't make it to the store enough!  Lots of deals.  Coupon connections said the coupon for the Aquafresh kids toothpaste makes it .19 after doubler.  I haven't checked our price yet....Here are some deals as a reminder.  And I posted my trip from today!
http://fabulesslyfrugal.com/category/albertsons
I spent 2.54 for all of this!  I did 3 transactions and used $4 in catalinas besides the doubles.  I got 4 boxes of cat food, 2 dozen eggs, 4 tropicana juices, classico pasta, 2 packs of greek yogurt, 2 spice packs and 2 grillmates seasonings!  I love Albertsons.

More deals you are getting!

Here are Melissa's deals for last week at Rite Aid.  I'm slow at posting....
I paid less than $8 on all of this! The hair color alone was $12! The candy was all free, I paid $3 for the Loreal shampoo and conditioner and I received a $2 +up reward from it.  I had coupons for all of the John Freida products including a $5 off of the hair color.  My $10 +up reward didn't print for some reason so the manager gave me a $10 Rite Aid gift card as a substitute.  I was super happy with this shopping trip and the cashier and manager were super nice.  I didn't have to say a word about the rewards not printing. The cashier saw it right away and took care of it no fuss.

Money Maker on Nivea Body wash starts Sunday!

I have really been wanting some free and cheap body wash for women.  Since starting to coupon shop in October, I've only gotten a few bottles and have given most of them away.  Fred Meyer has a good deal this week but I LOVE the money-making deal Coupon Connections lists here that will start Sunday!
http://couponconnectionsnw.com/2011/04/hot-nivea-body-wash-1-04-money-maker-0-04/

Albertsons 4/13 with double deals starting Sunday!

Here are the current Albertsons deals.  She even did double deals that will start Sunday!
http://couponconnectionsnw.com/2011/04/albertsons-coupon-deals-week-413-doubles-coming-sunday/

My deals today!

I got both of these today at Rite Aid for .98 cents total!  They are on clearance for half off, I had $1 coupons and I used 2 $1 Rite Aid VV coupons.  A blog had posted that these cereals and Folgers coffee are 75% off so I went to see, and not at our store.  Since this is organic and I don't want to keep checking back, I just decided to pay the extra and get them for .49 a box!  :)
Then I hopped across the street to Fred Meyer, they were out of the body wash I wanted.  But I used my Free milk coupon catalinas from Albertsons, and I used some FREE Fresh Express coupons I had.  I got All of this (the strawberries and milk are organic) for less than $5!!  Love it!

Albertsons double deals 4/3!

Here are some double matchups for Albersons today through Tuesday. The blogs will keep updating lists as they find new deals.  You can do 3 transactions at one time.  Try to pick a quiet time to go if you do this.....morning or later at night.  The Albertsons on Carpenter is great and very nice with couponers :)  I also go with several extra double ideas because some of the deals posted don't work for one reason or another, or stock is sold out.  I don't like wasting a trip!  Let me know your great deals!
