Freebie Find - $4 Credit to Kroger




I saw this deal on Southern Savers and had to share. By visiting the Kroger website, you can earn a $4 shopping credit to use on your next visit. Here's how:
1. Visit the Kroger hompage, click the save more with digital coupons banner. 
2. Login or Register your store card.
3. Load P&G coupons to your card (Tide, Crest, Bounty, etc.)
After your coupons are loaded, you will see a screen that asks you to tell four friends about the offer. After submitting four e-mail addresses, a $4 credit will be instantly credited to your account (expires Jan. 18th). If you want, feel free to use my blog e-mail as one of your four! allisondurhamdeals@gmail.com
Pair the $4 credit with some deals like the Kashi cereal deal, and you can really stretch your FREE money! This would also be a great way to save on couponless items, like milk or meat!


Harris Teeter Super Doubles (+ Kroger) - Trip 2

Apparently, dogs need to eat every day, and it would seem, that with all my coupon planning, I failed to realize that we were out of food for Cooper. We fed him people food last night after discovering that there was no kibble atop the fridge. Mistake.

After waking up to a mess on the living room floor that told me just what Cooper's stomach thought of people food, I bundled up Nolan and headed out for dog food (Rachel Ray - that dog is a food snob). My floors, and Cooper, couldn't handle another people food meal.

Since I was out anyway, why not coupon??

My trip feels pretty brag worthy. I made stops at Harris Teeter and Kroger (across the street from each other), and between the stores, I spent $2.03 + tax for $37 worth of groceries, a 94.5% savings! Plus, I received catalina coupons for a free Poise product (not sure why that one printed), with a value up to $6.00, as well as one for $2.00 off coffee creamer, which will help me score one for free at a later time.



I bought...

Harris Teeter


3 Starkist Chunk Light Tuna Pouches - $1.00 (regularly $1.65)
- 3 $0.50 printables (click Hungry Girl Loves Pouch, scroll down to print coupon) x 2 = FREE

2 V8 Smoothies - $1.94
- 2 $1.00 printables x 2 = FREE

1 Muir Glen Tomato Paste (I stock up whenever I see this coupon) - $1.39
- $0.75 printable x 2 = FREE

1 Coffee Mate Natural Bliss Creamer - $2.65
- $1.00 printable (click Spread Some Holiday Cheer on left side of screen) x 2 

1 Silk Soy Milk - $2.89
- $1.00 printable (check second page) x 2 = $0.89

Total = $1.04 + tax

Kroger

4 Kashi Go Lean Cereals - on sale for $2.99 each
- 4 $2.00 off one recyclebank printable coupons (*see below for explanation of how to get coupons)
- $3.00 instant savings for buying 4 participating products
= $0.96 for four (~$0.25 per box)

1 box Fiber One bars - $2.89
- FREE product coupon (Kroger home mailer) = FREE

Total = $0.99 + tax

* Getting the Kashi coupons takes a little explaining, but it's not too difficult. If you haven't already done so, you'll need to set up two Recyclebank accounts (two e-mail addresses). You will need to earn points by completing quick tasks like quizzes (takes just a minute). Once you have earned 75 points, redeem them for a $2.00 off Kashi coupon (check the food and beverages tab). You print this coupon from home, and when you do so, hit the back browser arrow, which will allow you to print two coupons for your 75 points. Do the same thing from a second Recyclebank account. This will give you four coupons to use for the Kroger promo.

Harris Teeter Super Doubles - Trip 1

I made a trip to Harris Teeter, armed with coupons to "Super Double." I often make Super Doubles trips just for the freebies, but this round, there aren't many to be had (which made the store much less crazy than it usually is on the first day of Super Doubles). I was still able to score some pretty good deals, though, and walked away with $100 worth of groceries for $27, a 73% savings. This isn't too bad, considering I bought a few items with no coupons, like deli meat, bread, and olive oil. The coupon match ups for the items I purchased can be viewed by following this link. The Sargento Cheese is not listed in that post. It was purchased for $1 per pack using two $1.00 off 2 coupons I found on a Harris Teeter tear pad about a month ago.

What I really liked about this shopping trip, is that I was able to buy a lot of very healthy food for very little money. Who says you can only save money on junk food??


Here's a breakdown of the items I purchased. Prices listed are after store card and coupons. Items purchased without coupons are listed in red.

2 Muir Glen Tomato Pastes - FREE
2 Starkist Tuna Pouches - FREE
1 Oral-b Floss - FREE
1 Wholly Guacamole - FREE
1 Coffee-mate Natural Bliss Creamer - $0.15
1 Silk Soy Milk - $0.89
1 Seeds of Change Quinoa - $0.99
2 Pom Juices - $0.50 each x 2 = $1.00
1 Digiorno Pizza - $3.00
4 Sargento Shredded Cheese - $1.00 each x 4 = $4.00
1 La Brea Wheat Bread (BOGO - rings up half price) - $2.34
1 Olive Oil - $3.99
1 bunch red leaf lettuce - $1.99 
1 can black beans - $0.79
1/3 lb deli turkey - $2.80
1 red onion - $1.06
1 Snyder's Tortilla Chips - $2.50


Total =  $27.04 + $0.90 tax = $27.04

Have you made a trip to Harris Teeter to Super Double your coupons? How did you do??

Harris Teeter Super Doubles Preview and Matchups



Harris Teeter's Super Doubles promotion begins this Wednesday. For one week, Harris Teeter stores will double coupons with a value up to $1.98. Customers are allowed to double up to twenty coupons each day. The store also allows customers to double coupons for three like items per day but only two like internet coupons per day.

This is an interesting time of year for the chain to be offering Super Doubles. If you've been clipping coupons for a while, you probably noticed that TONS of coupons expired on the last day of 2011. I weeded my binder for expired coupons last night, and really, there isn't much left inside.

The sale ad has been leaked, though some unadvertised deals are yet to be announced. Honestly, this isn't the best Super Doubles promo, as far as freebies or low cost deals go. To score the best deals, you'll need to turn to printable coupons. Remember, you can print two of the same coupon per computer.

Below, I've listed a few of the best available deals. I'll be updating as I find more.

New Printable Coupons



It's a new month, which means new printable coupons!

Visit the Printable Coupons tab, where you will find a number of coupons that would be great to use at a store that doubles (Kroger, Harris Teeter, Piggly Wiggly, etc.). If a store near you doubles, use the $0.75 off Muir Glen coupon to score free products, like tomato paste.

If you plan to shop the Harris Teeter Super Doubles sale, which starts this Wednesday, look for coupons with a value over $1.00. There are a number available for products like Kashi and General Mills cereals. During the promotion, these coupons will deduct $2.00.

If you shop a store that doubles, you might also want to check out this coupon for $0.50 off Starkist Tuna pouches. When doubled, you should be able to get the pouches for free or very little out of pocket.

Remember, you are able to print two like coupons per computer. Use the back browser button to send the coupon to your printer for a second time.
