Want Free Sunday Papers?

This week at Walgreens they have 45-ct. Ecotrin aspirin on sale for $2.00. When you purchase this product, you'll receive a $2.00 Register Reward. There's also a $2/1 coupon for Ecotrin from the 5/17 SS insert, or you can print it here.

Each Register Reward can be used to buy a Sunday paper (or anything else you want, of course). I've gotten 3 this week so far, and I usually buy 4 papers, so I'll try to go one more time before Sunday to get my 4th one. (By the way, there will be 3 inserts in this week's Sunday paper - a Smart Source, a Red Plum and a Proctor & Gamble.)


*This is just an example of how you can use deals on products you may not use to buy products you will use.

Another Albertsons Score!


I went to Albertsons this morning to use some of the doubles from their ad in the Food Day. I did two transactions, back-to-back, and here's what I got:


Transaction #1:
6 pkg. Tree Top 100% juice boxes = $6.00
-used 3 $1/2 Tree Top coupons from 5/17 SS insert
-used 3 Albertsons doubles
Total: $0

Transaction #2:
2 boxes Ritz Crackers ($5.00)
-used $1/1 IP coupon (-$1.00)
1 7-oz. bag Kraft Natural 2% shredded Mozarella cheese ($2.00)
-used $1/1 IP coupon (-$1.00)
1 California Pizza Kitchen Flatbread Melts ($2.50)
1 bottle Kraft BBQ sauce ($1.00)
-used $1/1 IP coupon (-$1.00)
-used 3 Albertsons doubles (-$3.00)
-Instant savings on $10 purchase of participating products (-$3.00)
Total: $0.50
*Plus, using the form located near the CPK Flatbread Melts, I'll get a rebate for $2.50 for the Flatbread Melts I purchased. (That's a profit of $2.00!)

There are so many deal scenarios with the $3 instant savings and the double coupons, so I hope you can find some that work for you.

National Doughnut Day Tomorrow, June 5


To celebrate National Doughnut Day, Krispy Kreme is offering a free donut to each customer tomorrow, June 5. Word is, it's a doughnut of your choice, so maybe you can score something other than a classic glazed.

Albertsons Doubles


I've sure been enjoying the Albertsons double coupons these past couple of weeks! I made two trips today to two different stores to use all 4 sets of doubles that were expiring today. Here's what I got:

6 boxes Quaker True Delights Granola Bars
4 bonus-size French's Yellow Mustard
2 bags Mission Tortillas

Total cost: $.36!

I used 6 $1/1 True Delights coupons
4 $.75/1 French's coupons
2 $1/1 Mission IP coupons
12 Albertsons doubles

This took me 4 transactions, but both stores let me do 2 per trip, so it wasn't bad. It was certainly worth it, if you ask me!

*In today's Food Day there are more doubles, but these are good all week (through next Tuesday). You can check out this post for some deal scenarios, as well as another one here.

Hot Sunscreen Deal!


I don't know about you moms out there, but one of my favorite things for summer is continuous spray sunscreen! And right now at Rite Aid, you can pick it up for $2! Here's how:


Buy 2 cans of Coppertone Suncare Products at 2/$15


Receive $5 SCR from Rite Aid (limit 1 rebate)

That's $4 for 2!


This rebate offer is good through June 6.
