Stockpile Opportunity at Food Lion

Karen Weideman — Wed, 08 Apr 2009 19:24:18 +0000

I had to take the cat to the vet today ($$$$$, sigh) and stopped in Food Lion for a few things. They have some of their Kellogg’s cereals buy 1 get 1 free. What makes this deal so great is that the $1 Kellogg’s coupons are still on the shelves. Save $1 on each box of Kellogg’s cereal. Combine a coupon with a bogo opportunity and you can save big!

There is a limit of 2 free boxes per transaction. I did two transactions so that I could get 8 boxes of cereal. With the buy 1 get 1 free sale and the $1 coupon, the cereal ends up being around $.67-$.75 per box. Isn’t that great?!? With our family of five, we go through a lot of cereal.

The cereals that are on sale are Kellogg’s Special K varieties, Apple Jacks, Fruit Loops, and Rice Krispy treats.

Another stockpile opportunity is applesauce. The Food Lion applesauce and the Whitehouse High School Musical applesauce is buy 1 get 1 free. This makes the applesauce $1.10-$1.25 each.

By the way, I had to drive back out again to pick the cat up from the vet and I stopped in Food Lion again for 4 more boxes of cereal. I got 2 boxes of Special K, 1 box of Fruit Loops, and 1 box of Rice Krispies for $2.89, including tax! This means I bought 12 boxes of cereal today. My husband says they’re going to change my name from Thrifty Mommy to Cereal Mommy. lol

*There is also a $1 Kellogg’s coupon in the April 5th Red Plum coupon insert of the paper.

Enjoy the savings!

Buy 1 Get 1 Free at TGI Fridays

Karen Weideman — Tue, 10 Feb 2009 21:20:17 +0000

T.G.I. Fridays has a printable coupon for buy 1 entree get 1 free. The coupon is valid until March 1, 2009, but is not able to be used on February 14. If you’re like me, you don’t want to endure the crowds on Valentine’s Day anyway. It also seems as though you can print as many coupons as you’d like.

Thanks Kim for the tip!

CVS Incident

Karen Weideman — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 14:18:46 +0000

Tuesday I went to CVS to pick up some things that we needed. We live out in the boonies and there really aren’t a whole lot of choices for stores. I like CVS for sale items, but when you’re looking for specific things it certainly isn’t the thriftiest choice. I also decided on CVS because sometimes they have some bargains that are too good to pass up.

I selected the things I needed and then decided to purchase some vitamins because they were buy 1 get 1 free. Wouldn’t you know it that there was only 1 package of the vitamins I wanted. I looked around at the different selections and decided I needed the odd ball package.

I took the vitamins up to the front of the store and the store manager was standing there so I asked him what they could do. Do you know what he told me? He said that they would ring up two packages of vitamins and they would give me a raincheck for the free one, since I wasn’t paying for it anyway and it was free. Then he said something about me not buying the second one and not paying for it, once again mentioning it was free. He wanted me to buy the one and pay full price for it, give me a ticket stating that I was entitled to a free one, and come back later to pick it up. Maybe I’m too much of a tightwad, but I have an issue with this.

1) Don’t tell me I’m not paying for the item. If the item is advertised as buy 1 get 1 free, then I am paying for it. It’s part of THEIR sale. I didn’t make up the sale price, THEY did.

2) Don’t act like you’re doing me a favor by letting me have the second package for free. Yes, once again, they’re the ones that set up the price.

3) Is it really that much trouble to give it to me for 1/2 price? Any other store would have made the extra effort and allowed their customer to leave happy.

4) They gave me a ticket for a raincheck stating that the item was buy 1 get 1 free and then they wrote “free” at the top. Who’s to say that I didn’t write free at the top of the ticket? Am I going to have problem redeeming my free bottle?

Errrr. Sorry. This just rubbed me the wrong way. Am I overreacting or would you have been annoyed too?
