Acme (Supervalu): a few freebies & cheaps I found

Just got back from my weekly shopping trip for the family. Spent $80, saved 40%, go me! Anyway, I was without the boys, so I had time to poke around & matchup coupons as I perused the aisles. If you shop at any of the stores in the Supervalu chain, check your store as they often have similar prices & promotions.

This is only for the Avondale location, but it appears that they are having some freezer/refrigerator troubles, so all the big hams were reduced to 1.99/lb while supplies last. If you have the freezer space, get your Easter ham now.

First, the Dove/Suave Unilever $5/$15 catalina deal–if you do that promo, you’ll get your stuff cheap. But going from shelf price to sale price minus coupons, I don’t see any freebies. Even the deodorant, the one that there is a $2 coupon out for–that’s $4.19 shelf, $3.99 sale. So no great differences in price from shelf to sale to boost it along.

However…there are many Suave and Dove items on clearance. So if you just want cheap stuff without the hassle of trying to figure out a catalina deal, check the shelves for the red clearance tags.

Also on clearance–the Philly Cream Cheese singles or minis or whatever they’re called. On clearance for 1.89 and I’m fairly certain there were $1/1s last week.

Febreze candles-$3.59, there are $2 coupons out for these. And I like these candles–with 3 dogs we go through a lot of candles.

The Ronzoni Garden pasta is $1.25 and there are $1/1s out for this–only $0.25 for a pound of pasta. There are also lots of printables out, I did a post on this last week, use search in upper left hand of page, that post has several links to printables.

The Tabasco sauce (tabasco brand), the small bottle is $1, so check your coupon binders for the $0.50/1s that came out recently–free!

Franks, the small bottle is $1 and I had $1/2s for it. Two bottles for a buck, great price–and I can’t wait to make that buffalo chicken dip tomorrow! Yum!

French’s brand worcestershire sauce–the big 20 oz bottle is only $1.79, so if you have the $0.75 coupon, only $0.29. It says “50% more free” or something on the package. I don’t use it often, but like to have it on hand for when a recipe calls for it–and that’s a fantastic price for that big bottle.

Kraft 2% singles are $2, hopefully you snagged the $1 off 1 printable link when I posted it, because it’s no longer available, but $1 for a pack of Kraft singles is a great price. For $1, it’s cheaper than the generic brand, so my dog will be getting it when she takes her meds every day.

I need spaghetti sauce, and have the $1 off 2 Ragu coupons, which is $1.50 right now. But the tag says it will be that price until 5/5, I’m going to hold out for a better sale or catalina deal. $0.50 is pretty much my upper limit of what I will pay for a jar of spaghetti sauce and I’ve been able to do well sticking to that price point. At some point, Acme will reduce it to $0.99, they have to, right? They always do!

More clearance-L’oreal stuff for hair, Aveeno hair stuff and Nexxus.

Back by the deli, look for the tearpads for a mail in rebate for “try me free” Snapple. Also snagged some good tearpad coupons–$0.75 off Kraft Homestyle Mac & Cheese. I don’t want either of these items but they’ll make good trading coupons.

New Heart Smart booklet in front of store. I grabbed a few but haven’t looked in it yet.
