Can't resist the doublers!

First I am going to apologize, if your area does not have a store that doubles, or combines store coupons with manufacturers coupons I really do feel for you. A lot of the deals I have done lately have been because of one or the other.

Every once in a while Albertsons puts "Twice the value" coupons in the Sunday paper. They will double up to a dollar on 3 manufacturers coupons. Today it was announced that if you like Albertsons on Facebook you can now print out a double coupon!!!!!!!!!!

So, I decided to take my chances and go to the store on a Sunday at 4 pm.

Total for all you see in this picture before coupons was $86.83 ( without preferred card or promotional deals)

Total I paid out the door....$46.43 a total savings of 47%

Here is what I did.

I decided to take advantage of the Hamburger Helper deal again but this time I bought 8 instead of 10. (Incidentally, I now have 20 boxes of this in my storage room alone!) With the promo savings of .50 each when you buy 10 participating products it was 4.00

I used 1 more 1.00 off of 5 coupon and .75 off of 3 coupon...total paid 2.25 or 30 a box, and got another Catalina print out for 2.00 off my next meat purchase.

Also on the box top deal

2 boxes of Betty Crocker potatoes .50 each - .50 off of 2 = .25 a box

2 Pillsbury refrigerated cookie dough

Lucky Peelie! LOL

1.99 - .55 off of 2 peelie = 3.43 or roughly 1.70 each

2 boxes of gushers fruit snacks 1.99 ea - .50 off of 2 = 3.43

3 boxes of general mills Cinnamon Toast Crunch 1,99 each - 1.00 off of 3 = 4.97

and 2 Pillsbury refrigerated cinnamon rolls 1.99 each - .75 off of 2 = 3.23

( i went over ten to compensate for the 8 boxes of hamburger helper)

Total = 16.08 - 3 twice the value coupons = 13.08!

My kids needed drinks so I used the new coupon book in front. It was 1.00 off of 2 Sprite 8 packs = 8.38 (including deposit)

My mom really likes the new Mentos gum so I bought 3 of those @ 1.49 ea 4.47- 1.00 coupon = 3.47

Saving Star  has these "coupons" that I previously loaded to my albertsons card...

The Rhodes rolls were 2.99 each and I had 2 coupons for .75 off...= 4.48 for both( 2.24 each) when it registers on Saving star I will get .75 back actually making it 3.73 or 1.87 each!

The Foster Farms corn dogs had a 2.00 peelie on them! So it was 7.49 - 2.00 = 5.49 and when it registers on Saving Star ( I get a dollar ) it actually makes it 4.49 for 44 mini corn dogs!

All in all some great deals today and I walked out with 35 box tops! I will most likely go shopping again on Wednesday :D
