Seems to be a very blah grocery week. Nothing to crow about as far as deals. Both Acme and Superfresh are running sales on their line of store-brand items. Personally I do not care for generics, as I do think sometimes the quality isn’t as good, and I find that with coupons and deals I can usually do better price-wise with name brand stuff. But I do buy generic if I can’t find a deal on staples, like flour, sugar, vinegar….stuff like that. So you may want to check it out.

Superfresh had a long, dry spell. No great sales, no triples, no decent catalina deals. But it seems in recent weeks they have picked up again–offering triples and great 2-day sales. So keep your eye on them.

A slow week once in a while is good to catch up on clipping & organizing, or just plain taking a break.

Wow! I haven’t posted in about six months, and for that I apologize. I certainly didn’t mean to disappear without a trace. Having two little ones is quite a bit to handle, so that knocked me on my ass–ha ha.

I read somewhere that most new bloggers only last six months before giving it up, but if you do it for two to three years, you’re in it for the long haul. So I want to give it another shot. I’m going to try to commit to two or three posts a week.

For this week, three things to consider:
1. Tomorrow will be a huge coupon insert day. If you’ve been slacking on clipping and collecting, this is a good weekend to recharge. Ask your friends & neighbors for theirs too.

2. Until Thursday it’s triples at Superfresh. A few freebies to be had, but not much. But you may want to check it out.

3. Until Thursday there is a spend 25 get 10 Procter & Gamble deal at Acme. As always, the $25 is based on shelf prices, not sale prices, and the catalina rolls.

4. New month started yesterday–so hit those printable sites if you haven’t already.

I guess I had 4 tips for today.

Happy couponing!
