Brookshire's (July 28th-August 4th)

As part of The Grocery Gathering at BeCentsAble, I report on the Brookshire’s weekly advertisement.

You do need a Brookshire’s “Thank You” card for most sale prices. The card is free and can be obtained at the customer service desk.


Brookshire’s locations in Central Mississippi are currently TRIPLING manufacturer’s coupons up to and including 60 cents. Only one of each kind of coupon will TRIPLE, all others will be redeemed at face value. According to policy, coupons that say "Do Not Double or Triple" will be redeemed at face value only. Internet coupons up to $1.99 will be accepted.


Brookshire's also has a "Priced Right Guarantee", meaning if your item doesn't ring up correctly, you get it FREE (Excludes Dairy, Tobacco, & Alcohol). Don't address this at the cash register. Go to Customer Service after your transaction.


Brookshire's gives you .05 credit per reusable bag.

Coupon Preview for August 2nd

August 3rd will mark my one-year anniversary of becoming a REAL coupon-consumer! I've always used coupons, but it wasn't until a friend from church referred me to The Grocery Game that I realized what coupons could really do. I have to say that I stepped in on a PERFECT Sunday--5 inserts! JUST LIKE THIS SUNDAY!

There will be 2 SmartSource inserts, 1 Red Plum insert, 1 Procter & Gamble, and 1 Special insert featuring Kellogg's & Keebler products and a $10 rebate form.

If you do not have a single coupon in your posession right now, if you've even been considering "trying out this whole coupon thing", or if you've falling behind on deals, this Sunday is THE day to get (back) in the saddle!

Check out the full preview HERE, or just take my advice: buy several papers this Sunday!

Kroger (July 29th-August 4th)

My Kroger stores are part of the Delta region. Advertisements run from Wednesday thru Tuesday.

You do need a "Kroger Card" for most sale prices. The card is free and can be obtained at the customer service desk.

My Kroger stores DOUBLE manufacturer's coupons up to and including 60 cents everyday. Up to 8 like coupons will double per transaction, all others will be redeemed at face value.

***The following info was on a sign posted at a nearby store. The sign is no longer there, but I haven't yet inquired about the policy. I haven't had any problems using multiple printable coupons in one transaction.***

According to policy, Kroger accepts Internet coupons with the following stipulations:

Only ONE coupon for each "Like" item per transaction.
Coupons up to and including .60 will double.
Coupons above .60 will be redeemed at face value.
Coupon value cannot exceed the item's price.
No "FREE" coupons accepted.

Kroger has a "Scan Rite" guarantee. If the item does not ring up correctly, you get it free. See customer service desk for details.

Kroger gives you .03 credit per reusable bag.

Here are the deals:

Fine print states savings are on the "non-Procter & Gamble" items in your order, but I and many others have verified that is not the case. I am only including what I believe are the BEST deals, not everything. Only certain sizes are the prices I have listed, so double-check! Also, most of these coupons are expiring July 31st! There is another Procter & Gamble insert coming on Sunday, but the coupon values don't look to be as high.

Conundrum!

Why is it that when you go on vacation, it takes twice as long as the vacation actually was to recuperate and get back to "normal"? Our family vacation in May really messed me up. I took a 3-day weekend trip to see my brother last weekend, and I just. can't. function.

I hope you grabbed the CVS 3-day deals (That I did not report on...) If you haven't been to CVS this week, the only thing to go for now is a small box of CVS Tampons. FREE after ExtraBucks with a LIMIT of 1.

The only thing I went to Walgreens for was the Scotch bubble mailers on sale for .39 with matching coupons for .50 from the 7/26 Red Plum insert. Quick note on that though: If you buy one mailer and use one coupon, the register will "beep" because it knows there's overage. Some cashiers will override it and take off the .50, some will reduce it to .39, and some will tell you they can't use the coupon. In order to "fly under the radar" and not have any issues, I bought extra so my total for all the Scotch mailers was more than the total value of my coupons.

I heard a SWEET little rumor from The Coupon Mommie that Walgreens might be bringing back the EasySaver catalog! Be still, my beating heart! :D

I'll be working on the Kroger and Brookshire's matches in a bit. There's a GREAT Procter & Gamble Promotion running at Kroger, and a 1-day 50% off sale on Kellogg's and Keebler stuff on Saturday, August 1st. Brookshire's is having a Buy One Get One for a Penny Promotion, but it's not that thrilling, really.

Brookshire's (July 22nd-28th)

As part of The Grocery Gathering at BeCentsAble, I report on the Brookshire’s weekly advertisement.

You do need a Brookshire’s “Thank You” card for most sale prices. The card is free and can be obtained at the customer service desk.

Brookshire’s locations in Central Mississippi are currently TRIPLING manufacturer’s coupons up to and including 60 cents.

Coupon Preview for July 19th

There is only one insert coming this Sunday: a SmartSource.

I was really hoping for some goodies to coordinate with the Kroger Mega Sale, but it is not to be.

Still, there's Fiber One, Nature Valley, L'Oreal, and more of the coupons that we get pretty regularly.

After this week, we will be getting at least two insert every week until Thanksgiving. So think of this as a little vacation and get your stuff organized!

You can view the entire preview HERE.

Hold Your Breath!

I won't have the Kroger and Brookshire's posts up until tomorrow, but I wanted to give you a sneak peek!

Brookshire's has very few items to post about. I probably won't even make a visit this week.

Kroger, on the other hand, is having a SWEET little MEGA Sale! I scoured every nook and cranny of my store tonight, so tomorrow's post will be detailed.

I know, I know...You won't even be able to sleep tonight you're so excited! Just try for me, okay?

Come To Momma!

Remember my posted desire to have the Starbucks Mocha Frappucino ice cream? I resisted temptaion and saved my $1.40 per pint.

God rewarded me last night!



I had 2 $1 coupons and 1 $1.50 coupon. So I paid .97 for all three pints! And they will taste THAT MUCH BETTER!!! :P

***They were at the Old Fannin Road/Spillway Road Kroger and I left plenty of their friends behind.***

Another MEGA Sale coming to Kroger!

Coupon Mommie is reporting another MEGA Sale at Kroger this upcoming week! This one gives you $5 off for each 10 included items that you buy, basically .50 off per item.

Her region's sale begins tomorrow, but ours will not start until Wednesday. The list of items she has provided will all be included in our sale, but many of the prices may be different. Also, a lot of the coupons she has listed did not come to our region. You can try EBay if you wanted to stock up on some coupons. The sale should last two weeks.

Check back Wednesday for our region's info!

Use 2 coupons
Pay $5
Earns $5 Extra Bucks

Transaction 2:

Buy 1 Fabric Refresher and 1 Air Effects
Use Coupon for FREE Air Effects
Pay $5 (with your Extra Bucks from your first transaction)
Earns $5 Extra Bucks

This works because you actually put $13 toward Febreze products on your first transaction. There is a running total in the system. So you only have to make up the other $7 to get your next $5 Extra Buck. After these two transactions, you're still ahead by $1 if you want to keep going.

Remember, the Limit of 5 refers to the entire deal, not the items purchased. You can buy $50 worth of items and get $25 Extra Bucks.

If you wanted to turn this into a Money-Making deal, do it like this:

Buy 8 Febreze Noticeables
Use 8 $4 coupons
Pay $20
Earn $25 Extra Bucks

***There is a coupon for $1.50 off 3 participating Kraft Products on page 5 of the ad. It does not specify whether it is a store coupon or a manufacturer's coupon, but it appears to be a manufacturer's coupon. I would not recommend trying to combine this with other manufacturer's coupons. It matches up with a few sale items, and not a bad deal if you need some of them. The Bacon Bits are a decent price with this coupon.***

Coupon Preview for July 5th

There is one insert scheduled for this Sunday: a Procter & Gamble insert.

A few months ago, we had the same situation: a nearby holiday and one scheduled P&G insert. But no insert could be found! So double check your papers before you buy!

Remember that the cheapest place to buy a local paper is Wal-Mart for 99 cents.

Diamond Rio & Balloon Glow--FREE Local Event


If you live in central Mississippi and you've never been to the Celebrate America Balloon Glow, you have been missing out!

The event takes place on Friday, July 3rd, behind Northpark Mall in Ridgeland, between the movie theater and Pear Orchard Road.

Festivities begin at 6 PM. There's an opening band, The Carltons South Carolina Show Band. The beautiful hot air balloons land on the grass right in front of you and the glow is scheduled for 7:45 PM. After that, Diamond Rio takes the stage, scheduled at 8:15 PM. The fireworks will be shot off once Diamond Rio is finished performing and it is dark.

There are always food & drinks for sale, but you are more than welcome to bring your own. Bring chairs and blankets to sit on. If you manage to get a close enought parking spot, it's fun to sit in the back of a truck (I am not a country bumpkin!).
