Don't Miss Out on These Deals!
Little Mister had Science Sleuths today, which gave me an hour-and-a-half to kill--and you could say I made a "killing" at Walgreens and Meijer! Um, yeah, that was dumb. So anyway, I even had the company of my wonderful hubby, which was fun (and the reason we ended up with Peet's coffee--not on my list--in the cart). :) He's been drinking Peet's since LONG before many of us ever knew it existed, since the original Peet's coffee place is near where he grew up.
But I digress. Let me get back to the point. You don't mind, do you? :)
Let me just mention some of the BEST deals you can get at Meijer this week.
Keep in mind that you can use one manufacturer coupon AND one Meijer coupon for each item (or number of items indicated on coupon).
I had an extra sweet deal because I had a $7 off shopping trip catalina from last week. :)
Check out the ad and see what great savings you can come up with!
But I digress. Let me get back to the point. You don't mind, do you? :)
Let me just mention some of the BEST deals you can get at Meijer this week.
- Skippy peanut butter for $.17. Yes, I said 17 cents! (regularly $2.29) And this includes their Natural pb, which we like a lot. Here's how to get that deal. They are on sale for $1.67. Buy two, and use two $.50/1 coupons from the paper yesterday (this only works if you get at least 2 papers). These will double at our Meijer. Then go to the Meijer Mealbox and go to "specials" for coupons you can stack with manufacturer coupons. There is a $1/2 Skippy pb coupon. So you're getting $1.50 off each, and thus paying $.17. Even if you don't have manufacturer coupons for this deal, print off the Meijer one, buy 2, and you're still getting them for $1.17 each--not a bad deal, either! :)
- Hellman's mayo (or "Best Foods," depending on where you live) for $.75-1.00 (reg. $3.58 each). They are on sale for $2.50. Yesterday's paper had $.50/1 coupon (these will double)--use two of these. Then go here and print two $.75/1 coupons. Then go here to print out two Meijer coupons for $1.50/2. Buy 4 jars (might as well stock up at price like this!), paying $.75 each for 2 of them and $1.00 each for the other two.
- International Delight flavored creamers for $.45 each. They are on sale for $1.50. Go here and print out two $.55/1 coupons. Then go here to print a Meijer coupon for $1/2. Buy 2, pay $.45 each!
- Nabisco snack crackers for $1.50 each. Not the best deal in the world but great considering they're regularly $3.27 each! On sale for $2. Use the $1/2 coupon from yesterday's paper.
- Nestle chocolate chips for $1.49 (reg. $2.67). On sale for $1.99. Go here for a $.50/2 coupon, which will double. Again, I've paid less, but this is a pretty good deal. Get the mini-ones, which are good in muffins and other baked goods, including, of course, cookies.
- Renuzits are on sale for $.89, so if you got in on the Facebook $1/1 coupons, this is a great time to redeem them, getting the Renuzits for free, plus overage.
- Milk is $2
- 3-lb bags of apples are $2.50
Keep in mind that you can use one manufacturer coupon AND one Meijer coupon for each item (or number of items indicated on coupon).
I had an extra sweet deal because I had a $7 off shopping trip catalina from last week. :)

Easy Coupon Organization
There are many ways to organize coupons, but here is a little video Little Mister and I made, explaining the method that works best so far for me. Sorry--I'm fighting either really bad allergies or a cold, so it's hard to breathe, let alone talk! Hopefully you can hear it okay. :)
Look, too, below for links to other coupon organizing ideas.

A Few Good Deals for You! :)
I got some great deals today! It's not my normal shopping week, but I couldn't resist stocking up on some of these things for future use. I went by myself, was finished quickly and, as usual, met up unexpectedly with a couple friends to visit with for awhile. I can't go to Meijer without seeing people I know. It's a great time to catch up with people! :)
Walmart (they took my coupons lickity-split this time--yea!!!)
I spent less than $1.50 total on 2 boxes Quaker instant oatmeal and 2 Post-it super sticky note pads. Here's how:
Quaker instant oatmeal is $2.66 each. Click here for $2/1 coupon and print it twice. Buy two at $.66 each!
Post-it super sticky notes--$1 each. Click here for $1/1 coupon, and get them free!
Walgreens
Blistex is $2.59, with a $2.60 Register Reward. I paid for that first by itself and used the RR on my next transaction. Free!
Scotch padded mailers are on sale (with a coupon from their ad), 3/$1. You can't beat that, when the smallest size is regularly $.99 and you can get the bigger sizes with this deal, too--see coupon for the range of sizes. Limit 6. I bought six--will have things to mail at Christmas time! $.33-.34 each!
Ricola throat drops are on sale for $1. There is a $.50/1 coupon in Walgreens' October book of coupons at the front of the store. If you clip coupons from the paper, I've heard there was also a Ricola coupon you could stack with the Walgreens one, but I did not get that coupon in my paper. $.50 or free!
Meijer:

- Free Ronzoni pasta! They're on sale for $.99. Click here for a $.50/1 coupon, which will double at my Meijer. Print it twice and get 2 for free!
- Free Jello! I was thinking about holiday recipes when I scored this free Jello. :) It's on sale for $.50 per box. If you clipped coupons from the paper yesterday, there was a $.50/2 coupon, which will double at some Meijer stores, giving you 2 free!
- Del Monte canned veggies--on sale for $.79. Click here for a Meijer coupon for $1/5, making each $.59!

(I was disappointed b/c I thought I'd be paying $1 each. I thought I could stack a catalina coupon I had received with the manufacturer coupon, but it turned out the catalina was actually a manufacturer coupon with the Meijer name on it and, of course, you can't stack 2 manufacturer coupons!)
There are many other deals at all three of these stores! Check out their ads online and other money-saving blogs for more details!

Blissful (Walmart-less) Shopping, Great Deals! :)
So, yeah, I drove my coupons right past Walmart yesterday and went directly to Walgreens and then Meijer. I can't say I particularly missed all the hassle over coupons at Walmart. I did write to them to let them know why I was taking my coupon business elsewhere. I was polite, but firm. I haven't yet heard back. Not even a "We've received your e-mail and we'll get back to you asap" form letter. Hmmm . . . we'll see what happens. I wrote to the local store and to corporate. I know many people have something to say to Walmart. I hear about it all the time. If you're one of those people, go here and click on "e-mail customer service." Then you're given some options. If you click on the one about store policies, you have the option of sending it to corporate.
Now, let's get down to business! Great deals this week. I L-O-V-E when I save more than I spend! I saved a total of $76.86 at Meijer, over $30 of which was in coupons alone. You should have SEEN my stack of coupons! lol It was great! The guy behind me in line just kept watching the cashier scan coupon after coupon, his eyes widening with each one. It was comical. Except that I think he was a little annoyed because he had only one little frilly dress ???? he was waiting to pay for. But, hey, he didn't get in line until well after my order was underway. ;)
Oh, and I also received $12.50 in catalinas to use on future purchases!! Love it, love it.
Anyway, it was great because I was able to use a bunch of coupons, that were ready to expire, on products that were on sale. A perfect scenario. And I took full advantage of it. ;)
I'll share with you some of the best deals!
Chex Mix, normally $2.69/bag
Sale Price: 2/$3
Coupon: $.50/1 Chex Mix
Our Meijer doubles coupons up to $.50
Final Price: $.50 each!
Meijer has a deal right now where you buy $15 of Kraft products and receive a catalina for $5 off your next shopping trip. You can do two of these in one transaction. Plus, their cheeses, snack crackers, OM hot dogs, etc. are on sale. I bought a little over $30 of Kraft products, so I got $10 back, though the catalina didn't spit out my 2nd one and I had to go to customer service to get it. Anyway, not only did I get that $10 returned to me, but I also didn't pay $30 for those products because of all the coupons I had. I probably paid $10 or less on that stuff. Not bad!
Yogurt:
They have DanActive 4-packs on sale, 2/$4. If you buy four 4-packs, you get an instant $2 off. Use coupons here and here, plus these from Meijer Mealbox (to stack), and pay well under $1 per 4-pack.
Now, I'm not a huge fan of Hamburger Helper and things of that nature, but they have these new brands, like Macaroni Grill, Wanchai Ferry and Good Earth Meals, where you add chicken and a few staple ingredients you likely have (like oil). I thought I'd give them a try, to have them on hand for extra busy days, especially since I was able to get them for $.99 each (regularly $4.49 each)! If you've been clipping coupons, you probably have various ones you can stack with these $1/1 Meijer Mealbox coupons, to get them for $.99, plus the cost of chicken.
Coffeemate creamers:
2/$3
$.75/1 coupon here
Pay $.75
There are soooo many more deals. Check out the Meijer ad for your area (available online), clip coupons, look up online coupon sites and print them off. Then make sure to check Meijer Mealbox to see if there are some coupons you can stack with manufacturer coupons. Remember one manufacturer coupon and one Meijer coupon per item (or however many items are indicated on coupon).
WALGREENS
Check out the Walgreens ad for items you can receive FREE this week, when they give you back Register Rewards for the same amount you paid. Then use those register rewards for other things you need (and don't forget to use coupons!). That's how I spent $13.27 on $40.71 worth of products! I spent waaay under half of what I saved. You can do it, too! :)
