@mrvietnam said in CVS Black Friday 11/25 - 11/27/21: 3 freebies totaling $7.17 (free a/ ECBs) - also check out Mistercheap’s post for $31 of freebies a/ ECBs and if you have the right coupons:

@mistercheap

Yes, CVS is a joke. Glad I only rarely shop there. I heard they will soon be closing some 900 stores, too.

yes, over the next 2 years.

@mrvietnam said in Vons J4U Saturday Sampler: O Organics Salsa 16 oz. Lmit 1. Must load coupon by 11/14 and expires 11/15/21.:

O Organics Salsa

Had no problem getting the salsa, not the coffee was all gone.

JEWEL J4U has the free Vita Ice Sparkling Water 17 oz.

As MISTERCHEAP said, the cost of buying ink cartridges on eBay has gone up. I’d love to be able to get 300 for $50 to $60 as I haven’t found a deal like that in several months. As long as I can still manage to accumulate $80 every 2 months, I can manage to spend $80 at one time to stockpile toner cartridge, printer paper, toilet paper, paper towels, laundry detergent, etc. With my toner cartridges running about $87 each, if my investment is the cost of 40 empty cartridges and $10 (two months of the cost of buying ink to qualify to redeem 20 a month), I’m still doing well. I don’t like the change to having to use all of the reward at one time, but I can live with it. Just hope they don’t make any other changes.

Are they worth it? Don’t normally eat croutons and wondering if the trip is worth it.

Not worth the trip.

I ended up going since I had a brave robot coupon expiring. They didn’t have the ice cream, but the croutons ended up being pretty good. Good some yogurt too with Ibotta deals.

all wiped at my store. oh well.

@mrvietnam Is there a minimum? Could you have spent less? I remember buying 3 bananas, one at a time to earn a Capital One bonus that required use of their debit card.

Yes, I could have spent less, but I actually eat the $1 Whoppers and other $1 menu items, so I plan to get those.

Bananas are healthier.😉

The Dosh $20 offer works fine with renewal.

@c3 said in DEAD DONT WASTE YOUR TIME Possible Mistake: Check your J4U Safeway accounts. I got a $50 off $50 and a $25 off $25 digital coupon for in-store or online. Expires 2/11/22.:

We’re Sorry
We had to cancel some offers before you could use them. Please add this new special offer to your account for your next shopping order at Safeway.
I got $5 off $5. Some people got $10 off $10 and even $20 off $20.

I got $5 off $5 coupons on each of my household’s 4 J4U accounts.

@sportsfan64 $75 is several months of groceries for me.

What do you eat everyday for $75 to be enough for several months of groceries?

Mostly produce. I have a very large stockpile that I am trying to eat down. The only meat I buy is for the cats and only when it’s on sale. We often get free fresh eggs. I buy ultra pasteurized milk which lasts for months. I bought milk expiring in August in June. Once opened it keeps longer too. Just got 3@64 oz. Good Moo’d free after ibotta. It will last me until September.
If I include iBotta my oop for groceries is about $600/yr with some of that being chicken, liver & eggs for the cats.

@mistercheap said in West Coast J4U MM: BIC Disposable Razors--Purchasing 2 gives you overage of 2.01 each for a total of 4.02 overage a/ stacking two J4U coupons (expires 8/3/21):

Nope, no $1.99 deal at ACME, just the $4/1 Q.

You’re lucky on the west coast Mr. V

This is not just a West Coast deal. My brother in Texas also has the deal. He is on the Gulf Coast.

It is a monthly offer (L4), but it is no longer BOGO.

@mrvietnam this is why employees are taught not to engage shoplifters.

also, Walgreens has the earn $5 in Wags Cash on $20 deal again, the spray is $17.99 on Wags .com, plus buy $2.01 of something else, earn $5 in Wags Cash, plus the cash back on the purchase which I think is 6-8% at CB sites.

or pay with Wags Cash to monetize it.

https://www.walgreens.com/search/results.jsp?Ntt=AleveX

Using a Wags $5 in Wags Cash on $20 purchase digital coupon with in-store pick up is a good way to make this item more truly free (and even a small MM) by helping take the sting out of the sales tax. Sales tax on $17.99 where I live is $1.66 and like you said, MC, getting cash back to boot is also nice. That is such a good idea I think I will highlight it in my OP title.

can’t believe you’re taxed on meds there Mr. V, outrageous. Toilet paper, paper towels I can see. But pain meds?

We are taxed on everything here, MC. California is the land of high taxes. That is, at least one of the reasons, why so many businesses (and people) are fleeing the state.

@dangeruss said in Rite Aid: non-marked 75% off clearance on non-HE bottles of Tide: 46 oz bottles for $2.49 and 92 oz bottles for $4.37 plus new $2 and $3 coupons in the 7/4 P&G insert (so a 92 oz bottle only $1.37 after coupon) and there is a P&G rebate available:

@mrvietnam How much is a new washing machine going to cost after you put non-HE Tide in there?

Nothing. I wash at a laundromat. LOL

You may want to read the ingredients first.

@niniss said in Hurry! Fetch app offer: FREE package of Klondike Minis: Original or Reese's now through June 21, 2021.:

@mistercheap Glad to see your explanation, so I know I’m not crazy. I checked the offer detail again and again but couldn’t find the “3”. Lol

Update:. Of well, my local kroger don’t carry them and WalMart is out of stock. So not even one box for me.

I found them at Vons (Safeway).

@mistercheap said in Sam's Club.com: Three Days Only! $50 Golden Corral Gift Cards $35 (30% off) + Free S&H:

Some Golden Corrals have closed recently (franchisees declaring bankruptcy) so make sure your local locations are still open in not in any threat of closing anytime soon.

Yes, thanks. I am cautious after getting burned.badly from Souplantation (lost about $400). The local Golden Corral nearest me is open. I was just there a few weeks ago for my son’s 4th birthday. I have a new personal rule: I don’t get anymore than $200 at a time and try to use it up sooner than later.

@noahbody said in Rite Aid 6/13 - 6/19: Get $10 in Bonus Cash wyb a $50 Home Depot gift card:

@mrvietnam

Is this offer only for a Home Depot fixed amount gift card or will it include the American Express $50 gift card like before? And where is the barcode? It’s not showing in their online AD.

With this particular deal no coupon is necessary. You just buy either a $50 fixed or variable amount Home Depot gift card and then you will be awarded $10 in Bonus Cash (limit 2). This offer is only for Home Depot gift cards and does not include American Express or any other gift card.

can’t submit form

Is there a reason not to get the 36ct ones, 2x$2.99 - $3 coupon (only takes off $2.99), get $2 BC and $2 Ibotta , makes it a $1 MM.

No, not that I know of. The 36 and 42 ct are the same price in store, but if one is cheaper online then go for it. The Ibotta rebate just says they need to be 36 ct or larger.

Ibotta will work on online orders and with one of them being $0?

Why do you need a list of qualifying small businesses? Just search within all items sold by small businesses.

On the product page of qualifying items, there “should” be a note that states " Save $10 on Prime Day when you spend $10 on small businesses today. Exclusively for Prime Members." However, Amazon has never been very careful about always including such messages when it comes to sales on select items. If you find it through searching their small business inventory, it should trigger the discount whether that note is on the product page or not.

@mrvietnam said in Office Depot 6/6 - 6/11: 100% back in Rewards on Duracell Optimum AA/AAA 12PK and 18PK batteries:

Bonus Rewards: 100% back in Rewards on Duracell Optimum AA/AAA 12PK and 18PK batteries: Valid in store and at Office Depot & OfficeMax from 5/23/21 to 5/29/21 11:59 PM ET or while supplies last, whichever occurs first. Rewards are limited to 2 items per member. This offer cannot be combined with other Bonus Rewards offers on the same or similar products and services.

In the terms it has last week’s dates, but the offer is valid this week. They haven’t been changing the dates lately for some reason.

You have 6/6-6/11 in the title and 5/23-5/29 in the deal details.

True. As I said Office Depot hasn’t updated the dates yet, but the offer was on their website this morning.

@mrvietnam said in Safeway Saturday Sampler: Free Signature Select Craft BBQ Sauce. 15.3-15.7 oz. Limit 1 Expires 6/7. Add by 6/6.:

If it matters to you: f you look at the ingredient list it appears each of the free ones has a smidge of liquor.

Can it be that is the reason these are in glass containers?

THIS WEEK ONLY!

When I checked last night, these 2 offers are supposed to expire tomorrow. I was about to go to Smart & Final in a couple of hours, and now the offers are gone.

@my4mainecoons said in Vons Saturday Sampler: one free two liter bottle Signature Select soda. Limit 1. Must be downloaded by 5/30. Offer expires 5/31.:

@mistercheap I’ve sat out all the Signature Select products and even the carrots. No reason for me to go to the store to get something I wouldn’t ordinarily buy or don’t need. I know that’s not what their marketing people are hoping.

I’ll make a trip to use my $5/$5 on an iBotta freebie and a filler to reach $5 but that’s it.

The carrots I did get, because my wife likes them. But there were other good offers in my account I wanted to get, Acme isn’t that close to me, so to drive there for a free $1 bag of carrots makes no sense. I don’t have a problem with the store brands for produce as they are typically packaged by a major name anyway and carrots are carrots.

But some store brands of soda taste nasty, so no telling even if I got a free bottle of the soda this weekend, that I’d like it. I put the value of that at 69c, because Giant in my area often has their store brand on sale for that price and there’s a few flavors in that which are okay. But 69c value isn’t going to entice me to make a special trip.

20% CB on RMN!!!

Expires: Available through 5/31/2021 or while inventory lasts

Meaning, get them while you can!!!

Same here, my store was out too (but Sunday noon-ish). Also had tried to get Chobani cold brew at Shoprite on Thursday, but no luck there either. It’s a bit frustrating that Chobani has so many deals but so little stock.

I did get the lip balm, at least.

NOTE:

At ACME shows two qualifying brands, so if out of one you can get the other brand.

I applied today on the very first day the rebates were available. The Spectrum Internet customer service rep said it may take up to one or two billing cycles for the discount to update to my account. Who knows if in a month or two from now if there will even be any money left in the pot for rebates? I guess everyone is in the same boat.

The FCC has announced that consumers can begin applying for and enrolling in the Emergency Broadband Benefit Program on May 12, 2021. The program will end when the fund runs out of money, or six months after the Department of Health and Human Services declares an end to the COVID-19 health emergency, whichever is sooner.

@my4mainecoons said in Safeway and Affiliates through 5/11/21: $2.02 MM wyb 2 packages of Carefree Breathe Liners a/ 2 J4U Digital Coupons:

Did this work for you?
Last week at Shaw’s we had pasta for $0.37 with J4u, L4. We also had a $2/4 pasta J4u. We got 4 pasta for free ($1.48) but no “o”.

Coupon queen on sd (in the Safeway thread) posted it produced overage for her. I have not yet tried it personally, but I will tomorrow.

I tested this out and it did not work for me, but perhaps it was because I also redeemed a $1 J4U cash reward on the transaction (I had $7 of chicken to absorb the Carefree overage had it materialized.) From reading sd it says that sometimes J4U Monopoly cash rewards will kick out other digital coupons. The 3 Carefree rang up as 99 cents each, but neither of the $2/1 Carefree coupons came off, although it looked like they were going to on the cashier’s screen, but after I paid and looked at my receipt I realized they didn’t come off - so I returned both of the Carefree items.

@mistercheap said in Safeway Saturday Sampler: Free 14.4 oz box of Signature Select Graham Crackers Limit 1 Expires 5/10/21:

NOTE

Two types qualify. see upload.

I guess which ones qualify depends on your region. Here in So Cal the two you mentioned qualify but also the low fat honey variety qualifies, too. I will go for the cinnamon variety all the way though. My kids and I like to eat these with applesauce.

@mrvietnam Same here, i didn’t even know they have the mail-in option. I used Staples mail in recycle for a while (after they closed all stores here years ago). But stopped after i quit buying inks ( can never print from coupons.com anymore).

You are very efficient, MC. This is actually not expired until midnight, but close enough.

I think I will wait to purchase until 5/1 so it will count for my May $10+ purchase for ink recycling.

My wife worked for a company back in 2010-2012 that provided their employees Blue Cross insurance. We received a postacrd in the mail informing us of the settlement, so I guess that means she qualifies to apply.

Thanks. Went to 3 CVSes and only the third one had it in the clearance aisle. Cleared them out (got 22) added a bunch of other clearance stuff and used my $10 off $20 paypal offer.

@dangeruss Earn “up to” $10. Pretty sure Flonase is part of the GSK offer that includes Nexium & Advil. You’ve already earned that. IDK about the Allegra or RA product-- can you use one of them? Look up price and figure out what % of return it is. e.g. the Conair/Scunci, buy 3 get $10. Bought 3 for $6.10 got back $10. That’s a MM, a better than 100% return, kwim?
RA vaseline for $2.99 w/ $2 back is a rate of good return.
Claritin $21.99, $5 back wyb 2 is not a good rate of return. $5 back on $43.98.

Just a reminder on CVS purchases. If you pay with extra bucks, the price paid line will be impacted by the ECBS used and you may not get anything back on Fetch if it shows you paid $0 if using all ecb’s, so be careful there.

Acme offers both.
