Today I’m sharing more things that I got this week using Albertsons’ round-up promotion wherein any coupon valued at $1 or less would be rounded up to $1.  This is not my favorite promotion, so I wouldn’t want it to be their only coupon promo, but they do it a few times a year and it IS good for those 25 and 35-cent coupons that’ll be worth more this way than with regular doubling.  Walmart price matches, and in my market they match the promos too, so I just had to take the Albertsons ad there and they honored the round-up.

First up – my fail.  Ragu was $1.68 at the Walmart, my coupon rounded-up to $1, so I paid 68-cents each.  This IS a good price.  But Albertsons had a promo where you buy 10 and they are 49-cents.  I didn’t know about this at the time – bummer!

Almonds were $1.50 in the Walgreens ad, Walmart price-matched that and then rounded up my coupon so I scored these for 50-cents each.

Rounded up and got free cookie mix…

…free fried rice seasoning and 8-cent mustard.  (We are out of ketchup right now….no coupons and no deals right now so I am making the family go without which is absolutely hilarious….or was until I didn’t have any ketchup to put on my fritatta the other night; hope a sale comes out soon!)

….13-cent Dawn and free floss, toothpaste, and toothbrushes.

Walmart ran out of the Asian seasonings, but Albertsons had them, so I got them free there too.

68-cent Minute Rice – my kids love brown rice, and we love the convenience of these when we are running late on dinner during the week.  And 50-cent sour cream.

Here’s my LMFAO! shot.  I have been trying to score these buggers for about a month.  The coupon is for $3 off and the price is $2.62, so you make 38-cents on each one.  38-cents x 13 = $4.94 in overage going to other items.  I was telling people about this, how I just bought them to make money and I had people asking me if they could have them which was both hilarious and TMI at the same time!

My aunt gave me some $ to go couponing for her and start her off on a little stockpile.  She gave me a list of things that she would use, I paired that with coupons and the round up and got her pastas and dressings for 50-cents each….

….13-cent Dawn, free toothpaste and toothbrush, 68-cent Ragu and pickles, 25-cent olives….

….59-cent Ivory and paper towels….

…37-cent cappuccino, free creamer, 59-cent Worcestershire, 50-cent jalapenos and a free Zone bar.  I paid a little more than I would pay for things, but for her and what she spends on groceries, she got some good deals.
