Tip from Lisa in Pennsylvania (Rite Aid)
- At Giant Butterball turkey bacon is 2 for $3.00 and with $.55 coupon from the 1/15 SmartSource insert (it doesn’t double) they are $.95 each.
- Nivea lipcare is B1G1. They are $2.59 each so with $1.00 off Nivea printable coupon they are about $.80 a piece.
Tip from Lisa (Kroger)
- I was at Kroger today doing their $5 of 10 items deal when I came across the Cool Touch Kleenex. They were not advertised to be part of the deal, yet they were. They are $.99 with the 10 item deal. And there was a $.50/1 coupon in the 1/1 SmartSource – which Kroger will double for free Kleenex!
Tip from Karen (Weis)
- Tonight I found Cover Girl makeup for 75% off! To make it even better I had quite a few of the $2.50 off 2 coupons from the 1/1 P&G insert and $1 off 1 coupons from the 1/1 P&G insert. Value of the makeup before discount? Approx. $136.00. Out of pocket? JUST $18.67!
Tip from Laura (Giant)
- There is a $1/1 Wholly Guacamole product (no size restriction) coupon from the 1/1 SmartSource that expires on 1/29/2012. The 100 calorie pouches are $ .69 at Giant Food this week making them free after coupon!
Tip from Jessica via Facebook (Target)
- At Target they have 4.8 oz Desitin on sale (not advertised) for $2.48 and $5 GC WYB 3 and use you $1/1 Desitin coupon. I bought 9 boxes and got 3 GC so I don’t think there is a limit!
Tip from Michelle via Facebook (CVS)
- Huggies PullUps Mega Packs on clearance 50% off at CVS.
Tip from Mary via Facebook (Acme)
- Just wanted to let Acme shoppers know that the Kleenex catalina is confirmed. *doing happy dance* This week, Acme has a promo of spend $10.00 on Kleenex ($1.50 each) and get a $3.00 catalina back. Match up with the $.50/1 Cool Touch coupon from the 1/1 SmartSource or $.50/3 coupon from the 1/1 SmartSource. In addition to that, there is a Catalina running – wyb 7 boxes, you get $2.00 back too.

i went to kroger’s to buy the 10/10 and i purchased over the 10 but was not gvien the credit. they said i had to purchase in increments of 10…..i asked where it stated that in the ad and it was not stated. but still they refused to honor anything over 10. does anyone know anything abt this? it happened abt 6pm and i was told to come back the next day to speak to a mgr. i told her i was not driving 50 miles rt to speak to a mgr, i would contact corporate, however, corporate does not have the best customer service, neither does kroger for that matter. i hate shopping at kroger’s but do it only for the deals, otherwise i go elsewhere. i bought an item that was buy 1,get 1 free, and had coupon so it would have made it free. kroger refused the coupon, b/c said it was more than the product. they had divided the item by 2 and said it was not valid. i argued with the mgr that it covered the price of 1 item and the ad was buy1, get 1 free. he said no, b/c the coupon was more than the divided item….this is just one of the many problems i have had at kroger’s, i had over 30,oo of coupons stolen out of my cart. i knew who did it, kroger’s refused to do anything, said the man was a reg. customer and did not want to cause him any problems…..i called the police but they refused to do anything as well. the man had reached in my basket when i had my back turned and took them. i should have noticed something was strange abt him b/c he had been following me in the store.

I’m not sure if Kroger is running the same catalina for the Cool Touch Kleenex, but at Fred Meyer if you buy 5 you’ll get a $1 catalina, buy 6 get a $1.50 catalina, buy 7 or more and get a $2.00 catalina.

Grace says
The desitin deal at target, is there a sign or did she just buy it and it happened to come up?
Alena says
There is a sign. But you need to check the price of Desitin. Only 50% more boxes are $2.48
