@mrvietnam said in Acme (sister chains?) Save $10 on your next grocery purchase wys $50 in select gift cards (Zillions included) plus bonus points where offered:

Where would I check to see if this offer is live at my local store? It’s not advertised on the shelf but the last time they had this offer it wasn’t advertised on the shelf either… is it common for offers to go live on Friday? The sales week here is Wednesday through Tuesday…

I’m in No CA, Safeway land. According to the advertised offer at my Safeway, it started on 8/6 (Wednesday).

Just a mini vent…at my store the Sharpie pens weren’t at the regular aisle. The cashier had them behind the counter. I guess they are trying to discourage people from getting the pens.

@kimi said in Staples: Free Flash Drive with Purchase while supply lasts:

Picked up the free flash drive this AM. At my store, they are not in retail packaging. They are in little plastic bags, kept at the checkout counter. There is no item # on the bag.

Did you BOPUS or just find it at the store?

I went to the store. I couldn’t find it so I asked the cashier. He had them at the checkout counter.

@my4mainecoons said in Just4U Digital: $40 off a $75 online order at Safeway (sister chains?) Exp 7/22/25 (YMMV):

This is a one time offer; once an account has used it, it will never be offered again. It’s targeted towards customers who haven’t ordered online before. There’s also a $30/$75 banner offer but the site won’t apply it to your cart if you’ve ordered online before. I had a lot of fun doing $40/$75 orders a few months ago.

No, it’s not just for new online order-ers. I did the $40/$75 online order offer a few months ago, and I still received this offer. But of course, it’s YMMV.

Check your J4U accounts for a coupon for $40 off a $75 online order.

The P&G Back To School rebate is live now. Could work well with this Target GC deal. I’m going to buy the Zevo corded bug catcher. It’s $37.99 at my Targets and I have a $7 off Target circle coupon for it. It’s eligible for both the Target and P&G offers.

@mrvietnam said in NEW AARP Membership: $15 one year w/auto renew, get back $10.10 Top Cashback and $8 from Chase Visa Offer (YMMV):

Any benefits (besides it being a $3.10 MM when the dust settles) of being an AARP member?

I’ve been an AARP member for 15 years. It was really helpful when Walgreens had a relationship w/ AARP – Walgreens gave AARP members the same Senior discounts given to those 65 and over. But that relationship ended a couple of years ago.

I recently started shopping for a Medicare Supplement plan. I ended up choosing an AARP Supplement Plan. The premiums are a little cheaper so my AARP membership has been helpful to me again.

@mgr said in AARP Join Now, or Renew, $55 for 5 Years + Get A Free Gift | Expires June 4:

What is the Free Gift? Thanks. (I didn’t see anything mentioned at the link)

The free gift is usually a trunk organizer or luggage organizer (soft zippered pouches). I received the luggage organizer last year when I renewed for 5 years. Quality is OK.

Check your Sprouts’ coupons for a free Milton’s Cauliflower Crust Pizza (exp 4/22), free Milton’s Gluten Free Crackers (exp 4/22), and a free Mush Protein Bar (exp 5/14).

I clipped these coupons last night but didn’t have a chance to post until now. Hope they are still available. YMMV.

Rebate excludes trial/travel size. Rebate applies to the price paid after any coupon or discount has been applied. Offer valid for products purchased 3/30/2025 to 6/15/2025. Submission must be received by 6/29/2025. Limit one submission per household. Can use multiple receipts.

You can have your rebate paid via a Visa prepaid card, Instacart, Dollar General, Shoprite, or Walgreens.

P&G Made to Save Rebate

Note: Walgreens is running a promo where you get $15 in Walgreens rewards when you $45 of select P&G products. But eligible brands may differ between the promos, e.g. Olay products may be eligible for both, but Tide isn’t eligible for Walgreens.

I only received the Gatorade SS at Safeway. But yesterday I received 6 free (yes 6!) offers from Safeway. All expire 4/1/25. I assume these are unique to my acct so I didn’t post them: Kodiak french toast sticks, Keto ice cream bars, Culture Pop soda, SunSip soda, Stur water enhancer, & Planet Oat Barista oatmilk.

I built a cart then made a big mistake. At the top of the cart I clicked to use 1200 points for a $20/$20. That dropped my total from $35.15 to below the $35 minimum order! Grrrr.

You can ‘return’ a J4U rewards coupon.

How?

From what I remember…go to the rewards section and pull up the coupon. I think it will show that you redeemed ‘1’. change it to 0 and the points should be returned to your reward balance.

NE1 else have trouble redeeming the Columbia GC? I got the link, but when I click on the link to access the GC, it’s not retrieving it. Message says I can try again in 15 minutes, but it can take up to 24 hours.

Just wondering if others are having the same problem and if so, did it actually retrieve the GC. (I have a feeling I’m not going to get the GC. Oh well.)

My offer is the typical 30% back on ink & toner, exp 1/11/25.

Since we’re talking about eggs, my Safeway J4U account has a few reward redemption offers for eggs. My offers include: 300 pts for 1 dz eggs, 300 pts for 1 dz organic brown eggs, 300 pts for 18 eggs, 400 pts for 18 organic brown eggs.

Eggs are pretty expensive in my area ($5 a dz and up) so I’ve been using reward points for eggs.

@my4mainecoons said in Amazon - up to 50% off (max $80) when using Amex MR pts - YMMV - exp 12/31/24:

Did the title of this thread get edited???

Nope. I didn’t touch it.

I have 40% too. Thanks for the HU re:$1 minimum. The other times I’ve done this I used 1¢ in points.

Only problem now is coming up with something to buy. Everything I want is shipped by Amazon but not sold by Amazon.

Yeah, I also have trouble finding items shipped and sold by Amazon. But there is something I found that is shipped&sold by Amazon, and that caused me to search for a CC deal (cause there are always CC deals at xmas time). So I was pleasantly surprised to find something.

Found this link on Reddit: AMEX pt offer

You must pay using at least $1 in AMEX Membership Reward points. Supposedly the maximum offer is 50% off (max $80 off). However, my offer is 40% off (max $40 off).

Here is how my offer is worded: “Add eligible products sold and shipped by Amazon.com¹ to your shopping cart and get 40% off, up to $40. To redeem the full value of the promotional offer, add eligible products totaling at least $100 to your shopping cart. Promotion can be redeemed in one or more transactions for a total discount of up to $40.”

Ibotta has done this to me twice, earlier this year. Both offers were for 3 receipts, and it got pulled after the 2nd receipt. It sucks.

So I decided not to trust them anymore (with these CVS bonus offers). Sorry this happened to you Mr. C.

Did the Disney+ plus Hulu through Rakuten. $2 CB is pending. (I don’t use TCB)

Purchased the tea ($4.50), submitted the receipt, and received my Venmo within an hour.
The submission wasn’t as smooth as Aisle rebates, but it worked.

Buy $25 of participating Purina® item(s) in one transaction between 10/1/24–12/31/24, get a $10 virtual Visa prepaid card. Limit 8 rewards per person/household

(My dog passed 3 months ago, but I still get pet related emails. HTH someone)

Safeway is my ‘go to’ store so this is a good deal for me. I was a member before (cancelled in 9/24) and they often gave me freebies. I was surprised to see 2 freebies on my account this morning that I think are due to being a FreshPass Member: McCain frozen potatoes or onion rings and Milton’s Gluten free crackers. I received another freebie (Casa Verde plant based meal), but I think this one was just for being a J4U member.

So for me, it’s more than just a $10mm

ETA: It looks like the monthly $2 Starbucks grande beverage is still a FP benefit.

I’m in too.

Today’s Kohl’s email contains $10 promotion Kohl’s Cash. It expires 11/10/24. Email subject is “Take 20% off! A savings pick-me-up for your Tuesday”

If you received this $10 promo, it will also be in your Kohl’s wallet.

@zerenia You know about the P&G rebate, right?

@my4mainecoons Forgot all about it, but at least I’ll be able to get the $5 back on $20. Thanks for the reminder.

FYI, the P&G rebates allow multiple receipts.

Saw that. There are also two promotions going on at the same time and the instructions seem to indicate that you can participate in both promotions as long as you don’t try to use the same recepts for both promotions.

Right. You can’t use the same receipt for more than one rebate. But you can use more than one receipt per rebate. (You mentioned only getting the $5 back on $20. If you have another receipt that brings your total to $50, you would be eligible for the $15 back on $50. That’s why I mentioned the multiple receipts.)

50% back on all ink and toner for 3 days (exp 10/9/24?) Activate offer in your account.

Deal worked as posted at my Safeway.

Thanks for posting. My Safeway never advertises these GC deals.

According to my Safeway app, my Safeway stores carry the PopChips. I went to 3 Safeways and couldn’t find it – all I could find are PopCorners. Finally found PopChips at Mollie Stones (a small local chain). Submitted my receipt and received approval within minutes.

@sonofzeus said in P&G HOLIDAY SAVINGS Rebate $15visa on $50 runs to 1/12/25see post for details/link:

@kimi Will they accept Instacart receipts?

Don’t know. (I don’t know what an instacart receipt looks like.) Hopefully someone can chime in.

Or you can call the P&G CS number. They are pretty responsive.

@sonofzeus said in P&G HOLIDAY SAVINGS Rebate $15visa on $50 runs to 1/12/25see post for details/link:

This offer requires a single receipt for $50 pretax/after discounts?

No, this one still allows multiple receipts.

I saw the huge bag of Cretors caramel/cheese popcorn at Costco today for $5.99. After the $4.75 rebate, it will only cost $1.24 for the huge bag, which is a really good deal. (When I buy bags of popcorn or chips from Costco, I use my foodsaver to reseal the bag. A bag, even if opened/resealed a few times, lasts many months without going stale.)

@pakle said in Free after text rebate - CRETORS Gourmet Flavored Popcorn up to $4.75:

@kimi Walgreens here is also selling it for $3.99 but sold out everywhere around me. Their online store inventory is wacky so it shows available but when you try to add it to cart, says it’s unavailable. I didn’t know so I showed up at Walgreens and of course the shelf was empty…

Fortunately my Walgreens was fully stocked. My Walgreen’s in-store prices are often 10-20% higher than the online prices. I was surprised to see the same price.

I bought this yesterday at Target because it was the only retailer selling it for under $4.75. Got approved within a couple minutes and Venmo arrived this morning.

Walgreens was surprisingly the cheapest in my area - $3.99 (cheese/caramel). My Targets and Safeway were $4.99.

I buy the huge bag of cheese and caramel at Costco. Would love to try their other flavors.

Yes, it could have been a glitch. All I know is (1) the muffin wasn’t available on MY app for purchase and (2) the store wasn’t OOS cause I bought one in store.

DDs are scarce in my area – the next DD is a good 20 miles away. So it’s not like I can easily go to another DD if I don’t like this one. (My DD charges $7.50 for the “$6 Meal Deal” . I guess they charge more because they can. The bagel sandwich was pretty good though.)

@kimi said in DO YOU KNOW THE MUFFIN MAN? $1 for any muffin at DUNKIN with activated APP OFFER, no other purchase req'd ends 9/16:

Muffins are in the Donuts, Bagels & Bakery section of the app.

Nope. Muffins are not appearing in my mobile app in any section.

Do they normally carry them at your stores? Maybe your area doesn’t have them? Or possibly sold out at that store for the day?

Yes, they normally sell muffins at my DD and I have ordered them via the app in the past. And today they did have muffins in stock – I went inside the store and bought one (coffee cake). I’m guessing they removed the muffins from the app to discourage people from only paying $1 and getting the 100 bonus points.
