Here’s what I got for my family of 10!
I wanted some Simplait Yogurt but, someone beat me to it and took everything the store had! I put in a special order for mine. I really recommend everyone does the same so you get what you want.
Here’s how you can score the deals I did:
Transaction 1:
Buy 4 Bounty Paper Towels $4
Use {4} $.25/1 Bounty Paper Towels (8/26 P&G)
Final Price: FREE!
Transaction 2:
Buy 4 Bounty Paper Towels $4
Buy 2 Darigold Cottage Cheese {one dropped & the lid busted on the way in} $3
Buy 6 Darigold Strawberry & Chocolate Milk $3
Use {4} $.25/1 Bounty Paper Towels (8/26 P&G)
Final Price: $6
OOP: $6
Total Savings: $17.54


































It all began on October 8th, 2008. Cathy and Monica started this coupon blog to help friends and family learn about their new money saving hobby couponing! Since then they have taught thousands of women (and men) 





I found hamburger helper boxes w/ peelies on them for $1/meat WYB2 HH! So I did the buy 10, get $5off deal w/ the HH, paid $6.90, and then got some very cheap meat – YAY! Also got 10 Totino’s pizza rolls for $6…
SCORE!! Thanks for sharing!
was the Darigold items on clearance?
No it was a sale price. Should be good in every store.
redplum has tic tac coupons and they round up to $1 making them free!!!!!! Christmas is coming the goose is getting fat on freee tiicc taacs.. LOL!!
Thanks I forgot about that one! My little kids love the orange ones! I will have to snag some! Thanks again!
My Tic Tac coupon is 50 cents off of two. When I used these for doublers I still paid 58 cents per pack since I was only saving a max of 50 cents per item. How can they be free with the Round Up? Thank you!
I am not seeing how they are free but, I am seeing how to get them for $.50 if they are $1. I looked on ebay to there are coupons there for $.75/1 but it’s the bottle or multi pack. Still a good deal at $.50 if you like the product. I just wouldn’t stock up massively. Of course with as much as coupons are changing – it may the best price for this year!
Which paper?
The coupon that came in the Idaho Statesman reads $.50/2 and that wouldn’t make them free but pretty low. It was in the 8/26 RP
Haha we were posting at the same time!
hi i was wondering how do i know if round up is going on at my local albertson?
I’d just call them and ask or it will say it on the first page of your local ad.
Amanda is right. It should be on the front page of your ad.
Instant rebate Coupon (IRC) found on the 5 pack of Kraft mac n cheese for 10 free packets of koolaid (up to $2.50). Koolaid packets at Albertson’s are currently .20 cents each, so this is a savings of $2.00 for buying the mac n cheese
How does using 1 .25 cent off coupon on 4 rolls of bounty make it free? Did you have (4) 25 cent off coupons and the bounty was a dollar each in transaction #1.
Just looked at the Bounty coupon and it states limit of 4 like coupons per household per day. this is a huge change in wording. Just thought that I would mention it so we can all be ethical coupon shoppers. Limits limits limits that all we seem to be getting lately. Actually I kind of like it since maybe there will be some left for me when I finally get to the store. Oh who am I kidding probably not! LOL
Oh my goodness, I totally did not see that new wording regarding the PER DAY!
@Belle- I know I was almost in tears! It’s kind of a bummer how much prices have gone up and coupons are also changing so much.
My store hasn’t had these since the last round up when they were cleared quickly…they put some generic brand in it’s shelf space
@Jennifer – yes thanks for pointing that out, I used 4 per transaction. I fixed it.
@Mandy- Yes, that was my error. Hope you don’t think I am unethical. I promise you that I did not even notice the change. I don’t think a lot of people did. I had already put a disclaimer on the post. The transactions will have to be broke up over 2 days. I agree maybe there will be products left on the shelves, but if it’s a product you use a lot of {like me with so many kids at home paper towels are a must have} it makes it hard, I will just have to send my husband after work if I want more than the 4.
How could I think you intentionally did something unethical, come on you have such an honest face! I just wanted to point out the change so that others would know. I love reading your posts and commend you for having such a large family and still being sane. I have three and one on the way and am pretty sure that sane is not something they consider mom to be anymore.
Thanks Mandy! It really means a lot to me that you were so sweet! As for being sane still with 10 kids (8 at home but, 1 other one keeps coming for visits often)…well glad I have you fooled that I’m sane! hehehe! I am an organized freak that has to always be busy so it’s a give and take! Congrats on your new addition coming. I love babies, so cute!
What size is the cottage cheese? They appear to be the small containers in the photo — is that right?
I buy cottage cheese at Walmart where the large 48-oz containers are $5.47 every day. I’m curious how this price compares.
Thanks.
The cottage cheese is 16 oz for $1.50. So still cheaper than Walmart – 3 containers would equal 48 oz and it would be $4.50 for 3. I am always grateful when healthy foods are on sale!
I just bought 2 Gold N Soft margarine’s for 1.99 each, rounded up a .55 coupon which made them .99 each. Then I got a $1.00 catalina. That made them .50 each, WOOHOO!
Hey I headed to my Albertson’s to get free paper towles and they weren’t 10/10 in fact they were like $2.98 or something. This is not a good deal at that price. So that makes me confused cause I’m new to all this but can they change the price?
@Erin It’s the Bounty Basics that are a $1 each
yes, the Bounty Basic single rolls. It’s the stores regular price.
Okay Thanks. I did get the bounty basics but I’ll go take a look today. Thanks
