I tried it! It works! I can’t guarantee it will work with every item, but it did for the New England coffee. It’s 6.99 and bogo. I got 8 and the register took 8 coupons, no beeping or anything. So $2 for a bag of New England coffee.
A gas deal! Updated 9/18
September 17, 2008 by · 2 Comments
I see gas deals posted on the coupon boards all the time and I’m always jealous. Most of the time, the grocery store has a gas station on the premises. My brother and sister in law do this regularly. Finally a grocery store has paired up with a gas station–Acme and Exxon. This runs through January 8, 2009.
Spend $50, get $0.05 off per gallon
Up to Spend $200, get $0.35 off per gallon
Starts this Friday, Sept 19. That’s all I’ve looked at in the circular-I’ll post other deals after I have a chance to peruse it. But this is big! I easily spend $100 a week on groceries, so I’ll be saving $0.15 a gallon!
ETA: Ok, I looked online and there are no Exxons around here. The only one in SCC is way down on 896 in the Landenberg area. Northern DE has quite a few. So unless this also includes Mobil, there’s not much use for it around here. You can also check online, if you don’t work around here and want to check for one near your work. Bummer. I suppose I’ll still shop Acme if the deals are better than Giant for each week, and if I get a gas coupon perhaps I can pass them along to someone who can use them, or trade them for better coupons.

Cereal deals at Acme–better than I thought
September 13, 2008 by · Leave a Comment
This is how my cereal deals worked out.
Quaker oatmeal: On sale 5 for $10, must buy 5. I bought 6, so I could use 3 of my $1 off 2 coupons. Paid $8, getting $5 back in rebate. Makes final price $0.50 a box!!!! Woo hoo! Much better than the usual price of $3.50.
Kellogg’s: on sale 5 for $8, must buy 5. I bought ten. I only had 3 of the $1 off 2 coupons left. So final cost at Acme was $13, getting $10 back in rebate. Makes final prices $0.30 a box!
I had to ring up the Kellogg’s separately so that I would have a receipt for each rebate.
TIP: Just go ahead and cut off the UPC codes before you put the stuff away. I didn’t, and had to dig out all 15 boxes, cut the codes, then put away again. But I also usually do the rebates right away so I don’t forget about it. Rebate checks are a nice surprise to get in the mail.
Possible FREE soda at Acme

I didn’t get it, but some HCW members are reporting that they got an e-coupon on their Avenu
for $1 off 2-liters of soda. The same 2-litres that are $1 each! Diet 7-up is one of them.
