Red Plum 3/27 inserts; preview & reverse matchups

For a complete list of what is going to be in this Sunday’s Red Plum, click here. Here is some of what will be in it, keep in mind that inserts are regional and your specific coupon values may vary.

Children’s Advil 4 oz or Infants Advil 0.5oz Save $1/1 (5/31)-I have two small kids, I always keep these and will probably use for a Register Rewards or Extra Buck deal, which are semi-frequent.
There are several other Advil coupons listed, I’ll keep them and include them in random envelopes I send out in trades & such, but probably won’t use them. Remember the moneymaker deal on Motrin a few weeks back? Well, I did that one several times over and each time I did, I got a $2 catalina good for ANY Advil. There is an Advil $5/$20 Extra Buck deal at CVS next week.

Alavert no 6 ct Save $1/1 (6/26)-There was a fun deal a few years ago where CVS was paying us to take Alavert off their hands. I think I still have some from then. My hubby did not like this at all and won’t use it. I’ll toss these. But there are always allergy medicine promos in the spring, and Allegra has just been all over the place free & on sale, I’d look for Alavert to start competing with some deals & offers!
Axe-various Axe coupons, including the bogo coupon again. Axe is buy one, get one 50% off at Walgreen’s next week. My friend Sarah can explain exactly how to use a bogo coupon with a bog50% sale at Walgreen’s, I’ll ask her to do a guest post on it. A few months ago Superfresh had a movie ticket/Axe deal, and with the coupons, you spent much much less than what 2 movie tix normally cost, and got your Axe stuff + the movie tickets. I didn’t have time to go and missed the deal, so I hope they run it again.
Ball Park products Save $1/2 (5/25)-eh, hang on to it, you never know. But usually, every spring, Acme & Superfresh just can’t wait to give away the Hebrew National and Oscar Mayer premium hot dogs. If I can get those for free, why would I pay for Ball Park?

Revlon deal at Acme

From March 25 (Friday) until April 21, there is an instant savings deal on Revlon at Acme. Save $5 instantly when you spend $20. I am consistently getting $2 off any Revlon item on my e-savings. There are $1 Revlon coupons in the 3/6 inserts.

Stack the e-savings, the coupons and the instant savings, and you’re looking at paying about $6 for $20-$22 worth of Revlon cosmetics. All we need now is to find a mail in rebate to send in when we get home!

No coupons? No problem! Acme, Walgreen’s, CVS-March 21

I am an Extreme Couponer. No, I’ve never gone into a store and gotten an entire pallet of cereal for free. But I do get multiple inserts each week, know all the policies and promos of my stores and have a decent enough stockpile in my basement that gives me enough ‘street cred’ with the other extreme couponers.

But it’s not for everyone, heck, some people never, ever want to clip a coupon! That doesn’t mean that there aren’t decent deals to be had. I used to do a regular feature called “No coupons, no problem” but have gotten away from it. Thank you to my new friend Alissa at Fun Finds for Families for reminding me that clipping coupons isn’t for everyone. So here you go, here are a few quick easy deals without clipping any coupons.

Acme-Acme is running a promo this week where you buy 10 items from a select list (on back page of flyer) and they’ll deduct $5 total, or $0.50 from each item. Propel is on the list. Propel is $1, so if you buy ten, only $0.50 per. And, many shoppers have spotted $1 off 2 peelie/sticky coupons stuck to the bottles of Propel. Tip: the Avondale Acme was completely wiped out of Propel yesterday, so methinks that the bottles had the peelies on them. After all, it’s not rocket science. If you’re staring a sign that is advertising the item for $0.50 and you spot those coupons………well, easy math! If you’re going to Acme anyway, can’t hurt to look. Deal runs through Thursday.

Another Acme deal: Log your Acme card into your e-savings. Ok, this might be a little bit of work, sorry. But it’s not clipping coupons! Look at what offers you got loaded on to your card. Did you get the $0.50 or $0.75 off Fresh Express? Guess what? It’s on sale for $1 this week, so you’ll only pay $0.25 or $0.50 per bag. I wish spinach had a longer shelf life! So I got some yesterday, and I’ll go back on Thursday, the last day of the deal and get more. We’ll be out of milk or bananas by then anyway.

Walgreen’s: This week at Walgreen’s, Almay cosmetics are 30% off. In addition, if you buy one, you’ll get $5 back in Register Rewards. So, if you needed to purchase something there anyway this week, look for an Almay item first, one that is on sale for $5 or less. Pay for it, get your $5 RR. Now, go get the item that you came in for, and pay for it with your $5 RR.

CVS: Got allergy problems? CVS has Allegra on sale this week for $6.99. Buy it with your CVS shopper card, get $6.99 back in Extra Care Bucks. Same premise as the Walgreen’s deal–if you need something there anyway this week, get the Allegra first. Then grab your $6.99 and go use that to purchase whatever it is that you needed.

Nestle Printables

Here is a link to some Nestle printables that were in my email. I have seen all of these items on sale recently at Acme and Superfresh. In fact, just bought Ovaltine yesterday with the coupon. It was $3.99, minus the $1. Down from $5.xx. I can’t get my 2-year-old to drink milk and someone suggested I try Ovaltine. It didn’t work, sigh.
