No picture, but I have two different shopping trips to Sol Cal Albertsons I am very proud of. They are by far my best as I am honing my strategic couponing skills.
The first trip on 03/28 my OOP was $81.89 with a total savings of $154.68.
$84.35 Preferred Savings;
$45.33 MFG Coupons Savings; and
$23.00 Store Coupons Savings
THe second trip on 04/20 my OOP was $53.74 with a savings of $94.52.
$6.00 Bonus Buy Savings;
$62.23 Preferred Savings;
$16.29 MFG Coupon Savings; and
$10.00 Store Coupon Savings
My tactic for both of these trips find the $1.00 deals and match with a coupon; makes for a terrific buy.

I usually have a hard time saving at Albertsons, I either don’t buy the right products or the checkers never scan all of my coupons correctly and I usually have to go back after checking my receipt so I’m pretty proud of my shopping trip today! (The checker did skip one of my coupons but I was watching and caught it!)

I hardly ever shop at Albertsons just because they don’t double coupons and I always find better deals at Von’s and Ralph’s. Today was a different story. I decided to tryout the FREE cheese deal on my way home from work. I love buying cheese in bulk because it freezes nicely.
I ended up get 2 things of chicken breast on ‘reduced for quick sale’ and $2.50 each, 1 CoverGirl make up for .74 cents (after coupon, good thing I needed some bad), I got 10 bags of cheese, 2 bags of frozen veggies, and 2 bags of stuffing all for $20 and still have my 2 $5 catalinas.
All in all Albertsons wasn’t so bad this week!
Had 2 buy 4 Chef Boyardee get 1 free snack packs.
4 $.50 off 2 cans of Chef Boyardee
2 $1.50 off 3 cans of Campbell’s Condensed Soup
$3.00 off entire purchase!
