Rexall is having a HUGE sale from the 11th to the 24th. So huge that it is going to take me an hour or more to go through this flier!!! I will be adding additional comments to this post as I go through this flier.  I love shopping at Rexall, looking forward to this flier's sale prices.

SAFEWAY FLIER March 11-17

So, here are some really good deals and associated coupons for the week of March 11 at Safeway.

  • Kraft Dinner buy one get one free use $1.50 when you buy 2 Kraft products OR $3 when you buy 4 Kraft products.  note you can use up to (12) of the $1.50 coupons or (6) of the $3 coupons because there are 12 boxes of macaroni and cheese to a box and you would be buying 2 boxes or the equivilent of 24 boxes of macaroni and cheese.  These coupons were found on tear pads in the store.
  • Royale Bathroom Tissue (double 12 roll or 24 rolls) buy one get one free   use (2) $1.00 of any multipack of Royale bathroom tissue.  These coupons can be obtained through GoCoupons.ca
  • Jane's Pub Style Chicken Breast strips, nuggets or burgers $8.99 (earn 20 extra reward miles when you buy 2)  use either the $2.00 coupon you can get from contacting the company directly OR use the $1.50 off any Jane's product that was available on tear pads in the store.
  • Lucerne Large Eggs $1.79 a dozen - $2.00 when you buy 2 dozen eggs - coupon was available in the newspapers around Christmas time last year.  total price for 2 dozen =$1.58
  • Cheese Whiz $4.99- $1.00 off - found at save.ca
  • Hamburger Helper $1.99 when you buy 5 or more - use (5) $0.50 coupons from instore tear pads bringing the total of (5) to $7.45
  • Panteen 375ml price match at London Drugs and stack your coupons to $3.99
Now this is not to say that Safeway doesn't have other items on sale that are "worthy" of purchase, it is just saying that these are the one that are really good with the coupons that I am currently aware of and have access to.  Meat is not an item that you will readily see coupons for so for that type of item it is best to keep an eye out for good prices and stock up on them as you have freezer space and money to do so with.  Happy shopping.  I will be adding more store flier information as the fliers become available to me.  Questions?

Nice find at Rexall last night

So I went to Rexall to pick up some Coca-Cola and Dr. Pepper (they have soda on sale this week) and I grabbed some Fruit Loops ($1.99 a box) and I found a Dora the Explorer Electric Toothbrush for $3.97! Always check out the clearance items at Rexall. Grab some good cereal and soda while you are it!

I prefer shopping at the Rexall on Portage

Coupon Reminders

I will send out coupon reminders to the blog.  So....subscribe to the blog and watch for the subject line "COUPON TIME!"  I will send out weekly, monthly, quarterly and yearly reminders to get your coupons!

Want to spread the word about YOUR coupon or YOUR great deals? Let me know and it will be posted here for all my coupon followers to see!

Coupons in this weekend edition of the paper!

There will be coupons in this weekend's edition of the newspaper. 
http://forum.smartcanucks.ca/188531-current-redplum-issue-march-11-12-a-canada/

My favorite is the $10 Multibioneta coupon.  That vitamin often goes on sale at Shopper's and you get get it for like $1.00! YAY!

There are also coupons for pet food, toothpaste, cookies and other items.  I will definately be picking up a few copies of this newspaper!

Saving Money Tips

So, what would you like to know more about? I am, obviously, going to cover couponing and coupon stacking here but would you like to see things like meal planning (to save on your grocery budget), canning/preserving, recipe ideas (to go along with the meal planning) or something else? Pop me a message and let me know!

Next Major Shopping Trip

My next major shopping trip will be with fliers that are valid during the week of the 20th!  As soon as the fliers come out I will start compiling my list of things to buy and the associated list of coupons to match!

Stay tuned!

Also coming----Follow me and get reminders of when and where to order your coupons from the internet!!! That is a helpful little thing, IMO. Can't save with coupons if the ones you have are all expired.

More useful information---I will be posting company contact information (some of them will mail you coupons if you ask for them!)

Stay tuned for more information, helpful tidbits and super sales.

Saturday, March 5, 2011

Well, here I am!

Many of my friends have suggested that I start blogging my money savings methods.  These involve (but are not limited to) canning, couponing, bargin-hunting, hand crafting items and so many more.  If  you are interested in saving money, this is the place to watch.  I will be posting my weekly shopping tips and lists as well as coupon reminders.  This is the first post, so we will see how things go.  Am I forgetting something? Feel free to let me know!

Now...off we go!
