I headed out to Albertsons rather early this morning so I could stock up on free pasta after being wiped out the other night. With the exception of the Quaker yogurt bars, everything I picked up was “healthy food.” If you have not tried the V-8 smoothie blends they rock! The V-8 smoothies are 100% juice and there is no added crap and my daughter LOVES them! I think I might even go back for more in a few days!

We didn’t get the blasted V8 coupons here – so jealous. I ordered the Barilla and will pick it up this week. I might get that Bear Creek pasta that will be 49-cents…and I’ll also get the 50-cent Garnier shampoo & conditioner. I’ve got some other random coupons that I need to match up and see what they end up being. I’m tired of waking up early on Sundays..and now it’s getting so cold…ho hum.

Albertsons went out of business here a few years ago. Wal-mart (where I really prefer NOT to shop) is the only store I know of that does double coupons, but they have a limit of $1 off your purchase. So they’ll double a 50-cent coupon, but if you have a 75-cents-off coupon, their “double coupon” deal only gives you a dollar off. And if it’s a dollar-off coupon…well, then it doesn’t matter which day you go to use it – you’ll still only get $1 off. Lame. Although, maybe double coupons helped push Albertsons out of business? Hmmmmm…

How many teenagers did you end up feeding with the pasta party??

How did you buy 12 boxes of pasta? My Albertson’s double coupons have a limit of 3 per transaction, so if it’s 2 boxes per coupon, 3 coupons per transaction, but it’s only .75 if you buy ten, my math ends up 4 boxes short. Teach me please!
Heather says
Yes! I want to know how too! Do you have multiple copies of the paper that you get those coupons in?
alyssa says
I think this is how she did it:
Buy 10 Barilla Pasta – .75 x 10 = 7.50
Use 5 $1/2 Barilla Pasta Coupons = -5.00
Use 3 Doubles = -3.00
Total = Free + 0.50 cents overage (for which you can get a tomoato or something)
HTH

I did go out early this morning to get my 20 boxes of free pasta (with tons left over) and 7 bottles of free v8 fusion juice. My kids devour this stuff. Always try to hit the pasta deals as this is a staple in my house year round!
I tried the popcorn soda pudding deal and am a bit confused with the double dip conagra deal.
Mavis says
I think the V-8 juice is great too! 🙂
Dayla says

Mavis says
You bet! 🙂

I really wish the stores in my area would double coupons! Luckily, we are able to price match at our local WalMart where we can also take advantage of my sons employee discount…just too bad his discount doesn’t apply to the price match items!
Jamie B says
Thanks Alyssa!
Heather, I get 6 papers delivered each Sunday, so I have plenty of the double coupons. I just got stuck on the max of 3 doubles per transaction. My brain wasn’t working this morning!
Before I had the Sunday delivered I used to ask friends and family for their unused inserts. Still made killer deals that way.

I hit a jackpot with one of my transactions! Bought 2 Lipton Recipe Secrets products and 1 bag of cranberries. Used (2 )$1/1 Lipton Recipe products printable coupons, (1) $1/1 cranberries Facebook printable coupon and used 3 TTV coupons. After I paid 15 cents (tax only), catalina machine spitted out one Save $1.00 of your next shopping order catalina from Lipton Recipe Secrets, $1/3 any Lipton Recipe Secrets MQ, one 5% off your next purchase, and TWO $5/$30 your next purchase!!!!! I think all of them were from Lipton.
