If you buy two products on sale "Buy 1 Get 1 FREE", how many items are you purchasing?
You are still purchasing 2 items and therefore can still use 2 coupons.
This is a generally accepted rule, but it is not necessarily hard and fast. {Situation may vary with an incessantly beeping register or an overcritical cashier.}
Same goes for things like "Buy 1 Get 1 50% off" or "Buy 1 Get 1 for a Penny".

Tip of the Day: October 3rd
10 for $10!
How many times have you seen that advertised? (Um, can you say Kroger?)
Did you know that you don't usually have to buy 10 items to get the items for $1 each?
My Hubs didn't believe me on this one! When he was at the store one day, he bought 1 "10 for $10 item" just to prove me wrong. He was entirely unsuccessful. :D
Just make sure you read the fine print. If it says "Must buy 10" or something like "$1 each/2 for $1.75", then you have to buy that number to get the lower price.
Walgreens is one place where you have to buy a certain number to get the lower price, but most places fall into the other category.

Coupon Preview for October 4th
We should get 3 inserts in this Sunday's paper: 2 SmartSource and 1 Red Plum.
1 of the SmartSource will be for General Mills products. I love General Mills. I can never have too many Green Giant Frozen Veggies, Betty Crocker Potatoes (Au Gratin...mmmmm), or Warm Delights. I'm still crossing my fingers for a great Pillsbury refrigerated dough sale at Kroger this month to match up with the Catalina deal.
The other SmartSource insert has coupons for Frank's hot sauce, French's Worcestershire sauce, and Fleishmann's Yeast--all of which I got FREE last year at Brookshire's with these same coupons.
The Red Plum insert has lots of high value Dove coupons that will coordinate with a sale at Walgreens next week.
All-in-all, I think it looks like a very good week!
You can view the full preview HERE. And just for a laugh, look at the picture beside the "Simply Refrigerated Cookie Dough by Pillsbury" in the Smart Source 2 preview. Yummy.

McDade's (September 30th-October 6th)
McDade's doubles coupons up to and including 60 cents. They do take Internet Printable Coupons, as well.
No loyalty/membership card is required for sale prices.
Here are the deals:
Domino Sugar, 4 lb. bag
$1.89
.35 Manufacturer's coupon from 8/30 Red Plum insert
Final Price: $1.19
Lipton Tea Bags, Family Size boxes
$2
.60 Manufacturer's coupon from 8/2 Red Plum insert

Page 3 has a feature for Kraft products. There are several in-ad coupons. I am not sure whether these are considered "Store" coupons or "Manufacturer's" coupons, and I don't know if you can use one coupon for multiple products or if you have to clip multiple coupons. However, Kraft Shredded Cheese, Block Cheese, Sliced Cheese, and Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh lunchmeat are only .99 with in-ad coupon--That's a GREAT price!
