FREE BIRTHDAY CAKE ON YOUR FIRST BIRTHDAY!


I had heard that Alberson's used to give a free birthday cake to a child on their first birthday. Since my little girl is turning one next week, I picked up the phone and called Albertson's. Well, they still do it! (at least the one in Ammon) Apparently, it depends on the store, some do and some don't so make sure to call or ask your Albertson's before ordering. You do have to order a little in advance, so I went in today and put in my order, so that we can celebrate her birthday on Sunday. I had the choice of Chocolate or white, and whipped cream or buttercream frosting. They will also personalize it for you! I will let you know how it is when we get it, but I have yet to eat a bad cake from there so I am sure it will be Delicious!
UPDATE! I just wanted to post a picture of the cake that I got for my baby! It turned out so cute and was really good!

PRICE MATCHING, ALBERTSON'S DOUBLERS, AND PEPSI!

Well, I found out something new today in my shopping trips. I had heard that if you price matched the ALL laundry detergent from the Big Lots ad this week of 2/$5 and then used a coupon for either $3.00 / 2 or $1.00 / 1 or there is a $2.00 / 1 ( I didn't have this one, it was regional and we got the $3.00 / 2 here, but I hear you can get them) that the detergent would be from $.50 - $1.50 a bottle. So since this is the ONLY detergent that doesn't irritate my kids skin, I headed to Walmart with Big Lots ad and coupons! I was so excited to see that they actually had some of the detergent on their shelves! I loaded up my cart, got my other groceries and headed to check-out. Well, apparently, Walmart doesn't price match Big Lots! (At least according to this checker). I purchased my other things and left with not detergent.

I packed the kids up and headed to Target to try my luck there. (This was the first time I had tried to price match there, it was SO EASY!) I found the detergent, loaded 10 into my cart, checked out the toy clearance isle (not much left, but did get two things) and headed to customer service. They were super nice and had no problem matching Big Lots ad, so long as I had the entire ad with me. So here is a quick pic of what I got...

Ten ALL Detergent regularly $4.99 = $49.99
Price match 2 / $5.00 or $2.50 each = $25.00
- 5 $3.00 / 2 coupons from newspaper insert (not sure which one)
One pair of Spiderman skates clearanced $4.98
One Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader game clearanced $4.98
TOTAL = $22.06!
This would have normally cost me $90.00 plus tax!

I also thought I would share a few more deals I got today
Albertson's


After coupons = $1.70
I used buy 2 gallons milk get 1/2 gallon chocolate milk free
$1.00 any 2lb cheese on Coupons.com
Alberson's coupons Tillamock chess $3.99
$1.00 off coupons for Crest Pro Heath plus doublers
$.50 off halls cough drops plus doublers
I did this in three transactions and I did use two OYNO catalinas from last week



And finally, my husband is a Pepsi person. I have a hard time finding 12 packs for under $2.50, so when Walgreen's ad came out I new what I was getting there! They have their Pepsi 12 packs on sale 5 / $15.00 which is an okay deal, but if you buy $20.00 worth of participating products you get $10.00 Register Rewards to use on your next trip. So, I got 5 cases of pepsi, and added two bags of Tostitos chips which are 2 / $5.00 this made my total over $20.00 so I got the $10.00 RR.


Total $21.60
When you factor in the $10.00 RR you get the Pepsi for $2.00 and the two bags of chips are free! I did do this transaction twice (yes my husband will go through them all!) but you can not us the RR on your second transaction if you want another one to print. I am saving both of mine for the deal that is suppose to be coming next week on Huggies diapers!

FINISH DISHWASHER TABS


I just wanted to pass on a great deal I got today. I was at Family Dollar in Idaho Falls, (not the Dollar store) and they had the Finish Powerball dishwasher tabs 12 count for $3.00. I had the coupon from the 1/3 smart source insert for $2.50 off any Quantum, Powerball or Gel Tabs. I was able to get them for $.50! I had five coupons since I get five sunday papers and now won't have to buy dishwashing detergent for awhile! I have heard that you can get the 20 count at Walmart for $3.87 which makes them $1.37 a box, but I have not checked this out myself and Walmart prices seem to vary by area. This coupon expires on the 31st of the month and is a really high value one, so don't let it expire!

ALBERTSON'S PROMO AND DOUBLERS!

Sorry for the absence of posts lately. I had a great holiday and have had a hard time getting back into a routine again. BUT... I am ready to tackle coupons again, and what better way to start than a week with doublers and a promo at Alberson's! I have not gotten my list ready for shopping yet, but the new shopping list are up on pinchingyourpennies.

I want to pass on a post by thekrazycouponlady where there are a lot of great scenarios posted by bloggers. One of my favorites is by confessionsofacouponaholic. It has a really good scenario mapped out if you are still trying to figure out the system and want to "copy" someone in the transactions they did. Again if you come across any good deals or have a great scenario you would like to share please let me know and I will try to pass on the information!
