Smartsource-April 3 inserts, reverse matchups

I posted earlier about the P&G inserts and all the P&G promos going on this week. HERE is a complete list of what will be in tomorrow’s Smartsource. As always, remember coupons are regional and your selection and values may vary. I’m glad to replenish my P&G coupons that all expired 3/31, but even though this week’s Smartsource has a lot of coupons, not a lot to get excited about, imo.

Bestlife buttery product any Save $1.00/1 (6/12) This will be very cheap-$0.50 or $1, combined with a sale, but we don’t use it.

Acme Brags-here are mine, share yours!

Here are my two receipts from yesterday and today. First one is from yesterday, 79% savings. That purchase included 10 boxes of Rice Krispies, 5 bags of M&Ms, 5 reusable grocery tote bags and 3 catalinas for a FREE gallon of milk. Plus, I’ve already clipped the UPCs and have submitted my $10 rebate.

Then, today’s weekly trip:

I always aim for 50% savings on my weekly trip and usually land between 30-50%. But, look at the item count-78 items. Then, if total the number of store coupons, mfr coupons etc., it comes to 86. That means that I had at least one deal-a sale, store coupon or mfr coupon, for every item. That’s right, if it’s not on sale or I don’t have a coupon, unless it’s absolutely necessary, we don’t buy it. I had several produce coupons this week too (look for peelies on the Kellogg’s!) which helped boost this along.

I’m having a great week there. I have plenty of food, plus I stuck to my budget-I aim for $100.

Any Sunday must-do deals?

For those just joining us–what makes a must-do deal for me: Either I think that the store is going to not have enough supply of the item, necessitating a Sunday trip. Or, the deal, although legit, is just too good to be true and the stores will figure it out, pull it and issue an apology (it happens!). Or, there are overlapping deals & coupons that only overlap for a day or so.

That being said……..nope. Nothing worth going out on a Sunday morning for. But there are some good deals out there that I’ll try to do this week if I have time.

CVS-The Crest stuff is free again, if you have the ECBs to pay for it initially, and have the $1 coupons. Gum Eez flosser are also free-$2 with $2 back.

There’s also a Doritos deal-buy 3 at 3 for $9, get $3 back. Not fantastic and there are rarely Doritos coupons to be had, but, there are rarely Doritos deals to be had either.

The Gold Bond body wash is $5, get $3 back, and there is a $2 coupon coming out tomorrow.

So as far as CVS goes, there are at least opportunities to roll your Extra Bucks if you need to, but nothing to get me out of my warm bed. And this is coming from someone who does go out on Thanksgiving Day to do deals.

Walgreen’s-The Purex is on sale for $1.99 and there were $1 coupons in 3/13 inserts. Hmph, I thought we looked at those coupons this morning at McDonald’s & determined they were expired? Note to self-go check my inserts.

I have $20 in Register Rewards from the Almay deal that expire this week, so I have to find something. There are lots of OK deals, but nothing great.

The Pantene/Herbal Essence deal is ok if you have the bogo coupons from 3/13. The U by Kotex deal is ok, but I seriously have enough of that stuff to last me to menopause. That’s on my “only if it’s free” list.

Kmart & Dollar General ads not posted any place yet. Oh well, did my weekly trip today. Will do one more return trip to Acme on Wed or Thurs. But everyone can sleep in!

More finds at Acme, including Yoplait catalina!

This morning at the coupon meetup, we had speculated whether or not the Yoplait catalina was active again. It is! I bought the 20 for $10, used two of the $1/10 coupons to pay $8, got a $2 catalina.

If you have the Herr’s $1 printables, they are on sale for $2.

At the Avondale store, in the frozen department, they have pizza cutters, supposedly clearanced to $5.xx. They are nice Zyliss ones and the handle on ours just broke, so I picked one up. Rang up $2.62!

Same store, back in dairy, they have replenished the tearpads for $1 off ANY Nabisco cookies 4 oz+, when you buy a gallon of milk. Nothing like getting a free 4 oz container of cookies (they’re $1) to go with my free milk.
