Preview and More Albertson's Doubles

UPDATE: My son just brought the Albertson's ad in from the street and it looks exactly like the one in the preview below. Except it is missing the 3 day sale and 3 day double coupons. So depending on your area you may or may not get the doubles for Fri, Sat, Sun. Check your ad.

If you are like me you might be stressing about getting double coupons from Albertsons before they expire tomorrow. No more need to stress. Albertsons will be having doubles again this week. March 20-22, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Check out the preview.


Here are a few match up ideas
Tropicana OJ .50 after doubler

Kellogg's products 1.50 (when you buy 10)
Use coupons from here double get cereal for .50

Tree Top Trim Juice is 2.50, double 1.00 off coupon =.50

Ok I am going to go watch a movie, go to PYP for this weeks match ups!
Thanks Thrifty Soaper

Albertsons 3/11-3/17 and how to use the printable list!

Hey Fabuless Friends!

I wanted to make sure you all had the fabuless link to the PYP (Pinching Your Pennies) printable Albertsons shopping list. The day I found this list, I was a very happy woman. It makes my shopping trip so much easier.

So right click on the above link to open it in a new window so we can do this together.

As noted in the picture, click on the *start* button in the top right hand corner of the page.

Now start selecting the items that you want to purchase. The stars are your guide! I wouldn't bother with the 1, 2, or 3 star items. That stuff is too expensive! If it's 4 stars, its a good deal. If it is 5 stars, and it's something you would use, then stock up baby! When making my selections, I always click on the deal header. That way I'll have the specifics of the deal right there on my shopping list - to make sure I do it right! After I've selected all the items that I'm interested in, I click *print*.

And viola! You have a totally customized list ready for the store! Be sure to click on the links to get your printables. Once you've gathered up all your coupons, you are ready to go! It sure makes my shopping trip MUCH easier!

This is just another reason why Pinching Your Pennies ROCKS! It's free and so very useful!

Another Frugal Tool

A while back I discovered another data base kind of like Pinching Your Pennies (PYP). I kind of forgot about it, but when Cathy mentioned this week she wanted to compare the Johnson and Johnson deals from Albertsons and Walgreens I remembered this site.

The site I am referring to is called SavvyShopperDeals.com, here are the things I like:

• You can search for deals at 11 different stores. Including Albertsons and Walgreens
• You can search by category. If you are looking for the best deal on Johnsons soap you can compare with all 11 stores. (This would have helped Cathy)
• You can search by Savvy rank and find out what the hot deals are for all or specific stores
• If you are interested in seeing the % you are saving they have that too. Some prefer that over the PYP star system.

(All of these tools are found in the shopping wizard section of the site.)

Things I am not as excited about:

• They have a coupon index, but it only includes the newspaper coupons. I use HCW for this.
• They do not offer printable coupon options.
• They have an organizer to keep track of your current coupons, I think it would be more work to manage than it is worth. However I use a binder with categories to organize my coupons so it is pretty easy to figure out what I have. If I did the file folder system where you only clip what you need as you use them I might find this organizer helpful so that I could keep track of what I have.
• This is awesome if you live in Utah, b/c it caters to that state. If you are a reader from outside of Utah if may not be very helpful. Although here in Idaho are ads are the same as Utah. So if your state follows Utah or Idaho ads check it out!

Albertsons 2/18-2/24

I am really excited about the Mix and Match Catalina deal this week, but I can not funtion with out this handy spread sheet that helps me make my list. I know it is the same as PYP but it helps you make a custom shopping list and I love that! Hope this helps someone else too!

Albertsons 2/11-2/17

Here is the link to the Pinching Your Pennies Albertsons shopping list.
Here is the link to to Utah Forum where people are discussing these deals.

And, they are now going to send out Idaho specific email newsletters. You can sign up for this right here!

Nothing super exciting to me so far... but I'm sure SOMEONE will find SOMETHING! If I have time and am out and about, I'll probably go get some Dannon Light & Fit yogurt (OK, I like this kind too). It most definitely has less calories than the Freddy's Blended stuff!
