Planning for Pick N Save on Wed.

Next week Wed. looks pretty promising for some good deals. I'm planning on getting there bright and early Wed. as we're sorta on vacation that week with family so I probably won't get to post pictures. We're having my daughter's birthday party that Sat. so that's why I'm getting so many buns and hamburger meat. Luckily I stocked up on hot dogs a few weeks back so planning the menu for the party was quite easy.

I plan on doing 4 transactions as follows:


1st:

2 Nestle cookie dough $6 get free milk, $1 coupons online

3 Marcal napkins $6, $1 coupons 5/17 ss

6 lbs. ground beef $11.94

1 hamb. Buns $1.09

$15.03 get free milk coupon


2nd:

2 boxes lipton soup mix 2.5

4 hamb. Buns $4.36

3 hot dog buns $3.27

3 Breyer’s Ice Cream $7.5, $1 coupon 5/17 rp

2 Nestle cookie dough $6 get free milk coupon, $1 coupons

Strawberries $1.50

2 Applesauce $2.50

2 Honey Maid graham crackers $6, $1 coupon kraft website

2 box Lucky Charms 7.38, $.55 coupons from betty crocker.com

3 Playtex Hand Saver gloves $3, $1 coupons from 5/3 ss

Strawberries $1.50

$25.04

-$10

-$13.10(5 $1 coupons doubled, 2 $1 coupons, 2 $.55 coupons)

$1.94 get 2 free milk coupons

Total spent: $43.60 - $14 in free milk coupons $29.60

* I am a little worried about the Nestle cookie promotion though because I just heard there was a recall on the cookie dough so I'm guessing the store might pull it from the shelves. I'm sorry but you kinda take a risk when you eat raw cookie dough anyway, don't you? That's what I always thought so I never eat raw cookie dough, but then again it really isn't all that tempting for me anyway. I hope that my store still carries the cookie dough because I love to keep some of these in the freezer for special times when temptation hits!

All This for $22.06 at Pick N Save



This week wasn't quite as good as last week but still a decent week. I got all this for $22.06 which would have normally cost $56.34 so a savings of 61%. This is what I got:

4 Eggo BakeShop frozen products
1 Seapak frozen shrimp
1 Whole milk
1 Salt
1 pkg. spinach
6 bananas
2 Peter Pan peanut butters
8 jars of Ragu
4 boxes pasta
1 tub cream cheese

There was a promotion running on the Ragu and the pasta. If you got 2 jars of Ragu you got a box of pasta free. I had $1 coupons for 2 jars of Ragu that doubled and there was also another promotion where if you bought $15 worth of products(Ragu included) you got a coupon for $5 off your next purchase. I used this $5 coupon on my next transaction. It worked out very well. I guess we'll be having lots of spaghetti in the weeks to come. I also have $1 coupons for the Peter Pan and for the Eggo Bakeshop that doubled as well.

I love that Pick N Save doubled every Wed. I know there are other places that double every day or even triple sometimes but I'm very happy that we atleast have one store that does some bit of doubling. It can be a pain to have to follow all the "rules"ei. $25 purchase to get coupons to double, only 5 coupons, etc. but it is nice to be able to save so much!

*If I have time later, I'll try to track down the links for the Eggo and the Ragu.

ETA: Here is also a $1 printable since you can only print off one $2 coupon per computer, it will still make it free when used with the $2 coupon.

If your store doesn’t have this gift card deal tagged, there’s an easy way to confirm on your own at stores. All you need to do is scan the items on the price scanners located throughout the stores. When you do so, in addition to the price you will see a special notice detailing that this item qualifies for a gift card deal.
