Apology

I am so sorry you guys...I totally blew it on this week's coupon matchups.  And what a week to miss!  I hope to still find time to do it but I can't make any promises as of now.  I was hoping to go to the store, browse the aisles, look at my coupons and come up with some good scenarios, but this week is just getting away from me.  I know that's no excuse and hope you'll stick with me anyway.

I appreciate your comments and will do a quick post about what other's have been finding during this special double-coupon week!

Double Up to 10 Coupons This Week at Coborn's!

Coborn's is doubling up to 10 manufacturer's coupons with a value of $1.00 or lower this week!  There is no minimum purchase and you may still combine store coupons.

As an example -
50¢ coupon = $1.00 doubled
75¢ coupon = $1.50 doubled
$1.00 coupon = $2.00 doubled

This should provide for some great deals this week, even on unadvertised items.

I will be posting some coupon match-ups later on today, along with the weekly deals. Stay tuned!

Deals for Week of 10/17-10/23

Not a very exciting week at Coborn's.  They advertise quite a bit of meat on the front page of this week's circular, but I am not sure if anything is that great of a deal.  We don't personally buy a lot of different cuts of meat so I'm not familiar with what are good prices.  If I'm missing anything HOT, let me know!

Catalina Deal to Pair with Penny Pincher Coupon

I just got back from Coborn's and had a very successful trip!  My total before coupons and sale prices was $97.47 and after sale prices and coupons, it came to $50.85 or a 49% savings.  Not bad!

I did want to let you guys know that a bonus Catalina coupon printed out with my order for buying Cottonelle toilet paper.  Wahoo!  If you buy 2 packages, you get a Catalina coupon for $2.00 off your next order.  Since the item was $4.97 with the Penny Pincher coupon, there are $0.50 mftg coupons out there, and then another $1.00 off per package with the Catalina, it brings it down to $3.72 for a 12-double roll package which seems like a pretty good deal to me for a name-brand product.

If you buy 3 packages, you get a $3.00 Catalina coupon, but the Penny Pincher coupon limit is 2.

This just started today (10/8) and goes through 10/22.
