About Monica
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) 
Ugh my Albertson’s was wiped again!
The nice thing is your store will get more shipments and there are 5 more days, so hopefully you can get something!
Do you think they get more shipments that just once per week? (Ten Mile and Cherry). I noticed they had a TON of the lucky Charm cereal (that aren’t even a good deal) but no Progresso soups out. I wonder how they pick what they stock up on?? Last week they had a BILLION boxes or Ritz, but no Chips Ahoy…Do you know?
The stores get shipments 2-3 times a week. Varies by store.
They make their orders based on past sales. We have been trying to get them to agree to give us and ad preview so that we can help them with ordering, but it is still a work in progress.
They should! That would be great-I hate clipping and organizing my coupons for a shopping trip just to arrive and the shelves are cleared.
So irritating!! Both WalMart and Albertson’s wiped out again by the same couponers each day. I wish the stores could make some limits, but I know it just won’t be so.
Ten Mile and Cherry?
10 mile/cherry is almost always wiped out, unless you start @ 6am. That’s generally when I go. Otherwise, you’re not going to get anything. (p.s I don’t clear shelves. The most product I ever take is 3-5) Now, if you go to Meridian Rd/Cherry, you’re likely to find more product. There’s not as many couponers at that store, especially on Double coupon Sunday.
Justwent to ten mile and cherry. Totally stocked up. But beware cashier at self check out with black hair about 25 or so. He only rang up 7 of my 9 coupons which means -$2 for me! Beware!!
Does Albie’s round up coupons to a dollar everywhere? I live in Southern California (Bakersfield to be exact). I don’t want to waste a trip there if they don’t…
Alisha- I think this might just be for the North West stores. The best thing to do is check the Albertsons website and look at your local ad. Then you will know either way. Crossing my fingers for you!
This website is AWESOME!! I have been using coupons more diligently since Jan. and it’s helped our family so much. Your Albertson’s shopping trip was helpful, and I saved a TON. Thanks so much for sharing your couponing skills with us. Our pantry is filling up nicely, and we’re still in budget!
So proud of the cashier I had today! I mentioned how awesome it was that everything I went for was in stock. She said that on the first day of the sale when all of the couponers hit, she made copies of every coupon she received and gave them to the grocery manager so they’d know the HOT items…BRILLIANT!! I wish more cashiers would think to do this!!
What store!?
I would not be caught dead making a copy of a coupon..LOL..for any reason.
