My Sweet ShopRite Deals of the Week!

If you don't have a local ShopRite near you, please, don't waste your time reading this. 
Go clip some coupons. :o)


First Great Deal!

Sometimes, I luck up on a deal or coupons that I just have to share.   Here are a few really sweet deals at my local ShopRite here in Maryland (Silver Spring store). 
In my home we have ten (10) children and three adults who all love to eat eggs.  So, if I don't have at least 4 or 5 dozen eggs in my refrigerator at all times, I start to panic. 

The egg deal for 30 large eggs has been appearing at my local ShopRite for $2.09.  I thought that was a great deal until I saw  $1.77 for 30 large eggs. 
That's about 6¢ per egg!!!  I will buy 4 (10 dz) today and 8 more later this week (20 dz).  (Limit is four cartons of 30 eggs) That should last us just about a month. 
That's only about 2 dz eggs per person per month.  How do I use the eggs?  Pancakes, French toast, scrambled eggs, waffles, deviled eggs, pickled eggs, and more.
Eggs will stay fresh for 3 to 5 weeks after you purchase them.  Check this fact on StillTasty.com
Maybe I'll double that egg order :o)


Next Great Deal!
Skippy Peanut Butter Coupon
Coupon for printable Skippy Coupon (prints as a pdf, you can select the number of coupons you want to print) Skippy Coupon Link)
Pair the coupon with the SR digital coupon and get FREE peanut butter and then get addition jars for 99¢ each. 
You can get 4 per variety but can use only 4 like coupons.                    
           

Here's yet another great deal match up!
I will be loading up on Zest and Coast bar soap.  We use about two/three bars per week.
The regular price is $4.24 for 8 bars (53¢ ea.)  Both are on sale at ShopRite for $2.99 for 8 bars.
I have Zest & Coast coupons for 50¢/1 that will double to $1 off. That will net me 8 bars for $1.99 (25¢ ea).
There is also a 50¢ digital coupon off one pack of 8 making one pack $2.49 and $1.49 when paired with the 50¢/1 qpon (doubles to $1).
Digital coupons can be paired with manufacturer's coupons but can only be used once. Digital coupons do not double.
Additional Zest and Coast coupons are available here:  CommonKindness.com
     
I will repeat these three deals at least twice this week.  In case you are wondering where I am storing all this stuff...
We have three refrigerators, two freezers, and a basement room used as our pantry. 
We are not hoarding, its just a couple of week's worth of grocery shopping.


Finally, don't forget to load those digital coupons on your card.

Don't forget that Tuesday's are 5% off for seniors. 
So, go get Grandma and take her shopping.

Happy Couponing!

Fun for Kids and Couponing, too!

Hey, Y'all!

Three inserts this weekend: 
Cheap and Free Summer Fun for Kids:  Y'all know that I am all over this for my 10 grandkids who are living with my husband and me.  We found lots of free stuff in Baltimore and DC but the fare for 13 people on the metro is just about $121 (off peak) roundtrip and that does not include parking. 

So, for us, free means we can load up our van and drive to our "free" entertainment or other fun happenings.

Here's some links to great free and cheap summer fun:
​If you live near an Aldi, 1 gallon of milk is just $1.99.  We are down to our last two gallons.  I will get a dozen gallons or so and freeze them.  Just remember to pour about 8 oz out of the bottle to allow for expansion when it freezes.  Also, it takes about three to four days for the milk to defrost in your refrigerator.  Shake well once it is completely defrosted. 

Eggs at Aldi are just 89¢/dz this weekend only (Fri & Sat).  Eggs at ShopRite are $2.09 for 2 1/2 dz (30 eggs).

​Happy Couponing!​

Rethinking Coupon Strategies...

All links are highlighted in yellow.

Hey, Y'all!

Been feeling kinda yucky for the last couple of days and not because of the weather.  I have a cold that I caught from one of my 10+ grandkids.  They get over their colds in 1 to 2 days max.  I have been sick since Tuesday and still feel like someone sucked all the energy out of me.

Anyway, I made a coupon shopping run to my local ShopRite this afternoon.  I ALWAYS go to SRite because they double coupons with a face value of $1 so that they are worth $2 off!!  But, now they have restrictions that are a pain in the butt.  I have to have a net total of $25 after all coupons have been scanned in order for my coupons to double.  That's not a problem if meat, poultry, seafood, or other big ticket items are on my list to buy.  But, otherwise, it isn't worth it.  So, as of next week, I will start looking at deals from other supermarkets like Super Walmart and Shoppers.  My pharmacy of choice is still CVS.  I have mastered the art of CVS couponing and don't have the brain cells to cram in Walgreens or RiteAid strategies just yet.  Maybe later this summer.

This weeks best links:
The Coupon Mom website can be a little confusing because it has so much info on its pages.  But, just click through the links and you will soon agree that this website has tons of information and deal match ups.  I learned to coupon by visiting every single one of the links on this website five years ago.  Then, I hit youtube and watched tons of videos that other more experienced couponers made.  Just go to YouTube and search "Couponing"  or "Learn How to Coupon".

I gave up my 17 pound coupon organizer and started the "Whole Insert" method after going to a coupon class in Tampa, Florida about 4 years ago.  It was presented by the ladies who are behind the website TrueCouponing.com  They have videos on youtube, as well.  Most of their supermarket deals are for Publix. It is an awesome place to coupon.  But, they are only found in the south.
Happy Couponing!

Weekend Quickies

Hey, Y'all!

We are all crying about the yucky weather this coming weekend.  But, there is a sunny side to all of this rainy weather besides May flowers.  Rainy weather is great couponing weather.  The stores will be empty and the shelves full.  So, right after church (or before), head out to your favorite supermarket.  It is supposed to be rainy here in Maryland for the next 5-7 days.  I am heading out this afternoon and again tomorrow. 

Awesome coupons expected this weekend.  Check each newspaper you buy or have delivered to be sure that all 5 of your inserts are inside.  Unfortunately, people are actually stealing the inserts from the newspapers. 

Look through your inserts and inspect each coupon for the expiration dates.  I have noticed a trend where coupons have expiration dates of less than 1 week after they appear in the inserts. 

Here are the five inserts we are looking for this weekend:
The five inserts expected this weekend:  RedPlum #1   RedPlum #2      SmartSource #1    SmartSource #2  P&G 5/1
The actual inserts and the coupons they contain will vary from state to state, city to city, and even from one neighborhood to another.  The face value of the coupons and the number of inserts will also depend on the region, city, or state where you buy your paper.

Local Deal:  Shoppers -1 doz. Eggs - 88¢/dz!!  Over the next several weeks/months egg and poultry prices should be really great.  The outdoor grilling season will be in full force right around Memorial Day and there should be plenty of chicken, rib, and hot dog sales showing up in your local stores.  Also, look for great sale prices on bbq sauce, pickles, relish, mustard, and ketchup, too.

Other Store Sneak Peeks - updated bi-weekly as new sneak peeks become available

 Next, don't forget to get rain checks when an item you want is gone.  Save those rain checks and make your own sale when coupons for those items become available...OR write to the manufacturer(s) and request coupons OR go their website or facebook page to see if they have coupons available. 

Finally, if you ever need a coupon for an item and need help finding one, please send me an email or give me a phone call.  I usually have pretty good luck finding coupons for items. 

Happy Couponing!
