I was at Rite Aid this morning and was going to buy some Ziploc bags and Glade Refills (since I got free Glade Scented Oil Warmers last week) and I noticed that there was a flag on the Ziploc bags that read "$2 +Up on $10 purchase." I was a little confused at first, since I thought the +Up Reward was $5 wyb $15. I checked the flier and sure enough, I was right. So I figured it was an old flag (since our store puts up new flags on Sunday and sometimes the old ones haven't come down yet) but on closer inspection, I saw it was a month-long +Up Reward that ends on 5/1! So, If you purchase 6 pkgs of select Ziploc bags (or at least 4, since they are 2/$6 on the sale this week), and either more ziploc or select Glade items (that are included in this week's $5 +Up wyb $15 deal), you can get $7 worth of +Up Rewards! Here's what I got:
2 Glade Sandwich Bags - $6/2
2 Glade Gallon Bags - $6/2
1 Glade Scented Oil Refills 2 pack - $4.00
I used (2) $1/2 Ziploc Products
(1) $1/1 Glade Scented Oil Refills 2 Pack
Now, unfortunately, in my excitement to see if this would work, I didn't pay attention to flags and bought two of the boxes that weren't included in the month-long $2 +Up Reward! My receipt says that I spent $6 toward the $10 Ziploc purchase requirement though, so two of the bags I bought were included. However, my mother in law bought 6 boxes of the quart sized freezer bags, and the flag on the shelf in front of those actually had the $10 +Up advertised, and she got a $2 +Up and a $5 +Up. She also had $8 roll over toward the next $10, so if she went back and bought another box, she would have gotten another $2 +Up!
If you were to buy 10 boxes ($30), use (5) $1/2 Ziploc products coupons, pay $25, get back $14 +Up Rewards. You would basically be paying $11 for 10 boxes of bags, or $1.10 each (before tax). Great stock up price!

Shaw's Matchups 4/13 - 4/20
I am not much for shopping at Shaw's because I haven't been able to justify a trip there lately for the gas money it costs to go down, but this week, I'm hitting it up. Not that it's a super spectacular sale (rumor is if you wait around another week or so there may be some way better savings to be found!), but I have several reasons to go to Bangor this weekend so I'm hoping to get in as many places as possible so I come home with some big savings.
The official flyer is located here. If you want to go check it out for yourself, there are some matchups there already, but I've spent the last couple of days looking for some extra deals and I've found a couple that weren't listed (hopefully they haven't updated it since and this post isn't just a big ol' redundant waste of time lol).

There is also a Pick 4 for $19.99 on select meat products. They are usually prepackaged, but the flier says there are more selections in-store so there might be fresh meat included. Perdue Perfect Portions and Mrs. Budd's Chicken Pot Pies are included. I love these pies and they make an easy "night off" dinner when I don't feel like cooking a big meal. They're almost $7 each at Hannaford, so $5 each is a great deal!
Once I make my trip through the store, I'll post any other deals I found. I plan to use my binder while I'm there so if I find anything good, I'll letcha know!

Rite Aid Trip 4/9
I got a text from a friend who happens to be the newest employee of our friendly(ish) local Rite Aid. She told me there was some clearance on Maybelline, so I decided to check it out. I loooooooove me some nail polish so I was excited to find some priced 50% off, and it was $2.07 after the discount! I had some $1/1 ANY Maybelline New York Product coupons, and unfortunately for me, this did not mean an easy deal on some nail pretties.
I grabbed 7 different shades. Can't beat $1.07 a bottle! Well, actually I could beat it. There's a month-long +Up Reward on Maybelline (Buy $15, get $5 +Up), and I already had $2.00 going toward it. So, another $14.49 in nail polish put me over the top. So, I got 4 bottles for $2.49 (before tax) after +Up. =) HOWEVER... NONE of the bottles rang up the right price, and I got the "Did you check the tag and look at the specific color that was on clearance???" attitude. Ya, I checked. I have fallen victim to a misplaced item in a sea of cosmetics with clearance tags. You have to check and make sure the number/color/variety matches because sometimes the wrong one gets put in the clearance spot and you think it's a great deal, but they point out that technicality and no amount of "it's not my fault you guys tagged the wrong item" will get them to mark it down for you. They will tell you to look at the tag or you don't get the price. (I've found MONTHS old sale flags at that store so beware when you're finding spontaneous deals that they are valid!!!)
So, she had a manager go check after I told her that there was only one price tag on the display and the clearance flag said "Maybelline display items only" (to indicate not ALL nail polish was on sale.) She still acted like it was my fault the register wasn't ringing in the right price, or that I somehow voodooed the clearance flag or manager who read it exactly as I did. But, on with the story...
I had coupons for each of the items, and was going to split the order into two so I could do 4 coupons on one, 3 on the other (since I was told they only allow 4 like coupons per transaction). However, the coupon wouldn't scan. Again, this must have been my fault because the cashier first pointed out that it was only on Maybelline NEW YORK products. But guess what...all Maybelline is NEW YORK, because that's their full brand name (and to be sure, I pointed it out on the bottles "Maybelline" with "New York" under it in small letters. Then, she said it's probably only on makeup, so I pointed to the stack of coupons, on the display just feet away from the register, next to the nail polish, and told her I got them from the display. She continued to scrutinize and then said "Yup, it must be because it's only for makeup." So, I kindly pointed out that it said ANY product, not just makeup, and she (however quietly) snapped "I KNOW I CAN READ IT." Wowwwwwwwwwww...
So, at last, after wasting both her time and mine (and this was about 15 minutes into the transaction after price checking and scanning other items), she manually entered the 4 coupons, then told me that she'd just try all 7 bottles and coupons in one transaction, likely in an effort to speed things along and get me OUT of there!
So, finally, I got my nail polish, other items, and +Up Rewards... Here's a list of what I got... It was worth the effort, I'd say.
2 Glad 13 Gallon kitchen trash bags - $4.49 each
1 Lysol No-Touch kitchen starter system (with bonus refill) $6.99
8 pkgs Up2U Gum $.99 each
4 pkgs Mentos gum 15 pk $.99 each
7 Maybelline Express Finish nail polish $2.07 each
1 Duracell AA 8 pk $6.99
2 Glad Plug In Warmers $1.00 each
Used
(1) $2.00/2 Glad 13 Gallon trash bags printable
(1) $3.00/1 Lysol No-Touch Kitchen System Starter Kit
(4) $1/2 Up2U gum packs
(4) $.55/1 Mentos gum 15+ pack
(7) $1/1 Any Maybelline New York Product
(1) $1/1 Duracell Coppertop batteries
(2) $1/1 Glade Plugins Scented Oil Warmer
$6 +Up Reward from previous transactions
Paid $26.70
Got back $2 +Up for Duracell
$5 +Up for Maybelline
Will get $3.00 Lysol No-Touch rebate
Final cost was $16.70. Not bad for what I got (although the gum drove up my final OOP because I spent about $6 on that by itself, but we chew a lot of gum and less than $.50 a pack is better than paying $1.29 regular price otherwise!) But to break it down by item:
Glad Bags - $3.49 each after coupon (they also count toward a $5 Single Check Rebate gift card in April.
Lysol No-Touch - $.99 after coupon and rebate
Up2U gum - $.49 each
Mentos gum - $.44 each
Maybelline Nail Polish - $.36 after clearance, coupons, and +Up Reward
Duracell 8 pk - $3.99 after coupon and +Up Reward
Glade Scented Oil Warmers - Free after coupon
After all that, I think that cashier is going to seriously either kill me or quit her job if I grace her register again... She was politely laughing and smiling as I apologized profusely for the trouble (though none of it was my fault, aside from finding a deal and using coupons) but that was probably more out of relief that I was leaving.

Total OOP: $.98
Get $4.00 +Up (2 $2 +Ups for Gillette/Old Spice Body Wash)

So, these are the things I'm planning for tomorrow's trip, and I know not everyone has these same coupons, but it gives you a chance to see what types of deals you can do. My total OOP will be about $15.27 before tax. (Actually, mine will be $11.27 because I have $4 in +Up Rewards from last week's sale, but I didn't factor those in since not everyone has that amount to start off with). In addition to that, I will leave the store with $3 +Up Rewards. The total regular or advertised price is $68.67, so you can see I will save considerably. My only fear is that I won't be able to find John Frieda items at that price, since most of them run around 7.49, but there are a lot priced higher, at $10.49. If I don't hit $15 on that transaction, I won't get a +Up Reward to roll into the next transaction. So, if I have to skip that one, I will.

Subtotal $9.99
Used $1/1 Blink Tears Printable (said redeemable at Walmart but was a manufacturer's coupon)
$8 +Up Rewards
Paid (after tax): $1.39
I could have done way better than I did OOP if I had split up my transactions more to roll the +Ups. I've heard from some people that if you don't wait long enough between transactions, the totals might not update fast enough and rolling Ups (like the Buy and Save or the P&G ones they run every now and then) wont' print because the computer hasn't caught up to your total yet. Also, our store didn't have sale flags up yet so I wasn't sure if the products I had were definitely included and I didn't want to worry about Ups not printing and screwing up my next order. I actually paid for the Hydro Gel as soon as I got to the store to see if my $20 Winter Rewards would print then or if I would have to wait for the next transaction.
But, considering I walked into the store with $16 in +Ups, spent $19.07 total, left with $22 in +Ups, and have a $7.99 Single Check Rebate for the Blink Tears coming my way, I did pretty well! It is a GOOD week at Rite Aid!

Rite Aid
Ya, it's been a couple of weeks...
I'm excited again this week for a couple of deals at Rite Aid. I noticed they have Schick Hydro razors and refills for 9.99. There is a 4.00 +Up reward for each one that you buy (up to 4). A couple of weeks ago there was a $2/1 Hydro razor and a $2/1 Hydro refill coupon in the paper. So, it'll be $7.99 each after coupon, with a $4 +Up, so $3.99 each. Since I have a lot of Up Rewards leftover from last week, I'll be using them to get hubby some new razors and refills.
I am planning also to do Right Guard body wash. The body wash and deodorant are on sale for $2.99 with a $1 +Up Reward on each (limit 4). There is a $3/2 Right Guard coupon on coupons.com. I will buy two of them for $5.98, use $3/1 coupon, pay $2.98, and get $2 +Up Rewards back. Total price is $.98/2 before tax.
I noticed on the front page is a deal for Pantene Shampoo, Conditioner, or Stylers. 2/$7 isn't a bad price, and supposedly we will be getting a $3/2 Pantene products coupon. That's 2/$4, and you get back a $2 +Up Reward on 2 (limit 2, so 4 bottles), and you pay $2/2.
One other deal I'm looking at will be my final transaction and I'll probably use all of my extra +Up Rewards to pay for it. (I'm $3 away from my Buy and Save $20 +Up Rewards when you spend $100.) Blink Tears is up for $7.99. There is a $7.99 SCR this week only, so it ends up being free after rebate. Good news is, there is a $1.00/1 printable for Blink Tears, so it's a $1 MM.
There are a few more things going on with +UP Rewards wyb so much of particular products, but this is my list for the week. If I find anymore worth mentioning, I'll update and letcha know!

Kikkoman Catalina at Hannaford
I was browsing the Hannaford coupons today and found a catalina deal for Kikkoman marinades. WYB 2, you get $1.50 back OYNO. I was super excited to find that Smartsource.com has a coupon for $1/1 Kikkoman product. My store has the teriyaki variety for $1.99. Buy 2 for $3.98, use 2 of the $1/1, and pay $1.98. Get $1.50 back OYNO, and it's like paying 48 cents for two!

More Hannaford Coupons: Updated!!!
There are more Hannaford Coupons available to print for the $1 off meat, $2 off deli, and $3/$40 purchase. These coupons expire on 2/11/12 so print as many as you can and use them up before Saturday. I'm doubt they will be reposting these again since they expire the day before the Superbowl and they are part of a Game Time promotion. You can find the coupons here.
I used these coupons to pick up 1/2 lb of deli meats (usually the ones that ran around $4 - $7/lb) and stocked up quite a bit in my freezer. I also used these to buy the deli items like potato salad, sesame chicken, and egg rolls (3 for $.37!). I will definitely be going back this week to use as many of these as I can. Remember though, there are only one allowed per purchase, however they can be combined with manufacturer's or meat markdown coupons!

Rite Aid Matchups 1/29 - 2/4
I was glancing through the Rite Aid flier and noticed a few deals this week... I guess there will be some pretty good coupon matchups in this weekend's paper. However, I don't like to go based on Rite Aid's "manufacturer coupon in sunday's paper" advertisements because they sometimes don't come to our region, or they may be a different amount altogether. But here are some of the quick deals I noticed (remember I don't have the actual coupons amount yet since I won't have a newspaper until tomorrow morning!)

Get $5 +Up Reward when you buy $15 in participating products
These are just the ones that stood out and caught my interest. I'm sure there are more that other people may want to take advantage of but this is at least a start!

Shaw's Ad Preview is Up!
If I ever have to move to Bangor, I will be the one to scan these and post them, but since it's a long drive to get a copy early in the week, I'll stick to posting the WUC (weusecoupons) link.
Here is the coming sale and match-ups for 1/27 - 2/2. I saw a few things I am sort of excited about, like Asparagus being on sale for 1.99/lb! We love asparagus, and at 3.99 for a small bunch at our local Hannaford, it is hard to put this on the table at our house. Luckily, it's something the kids don't really care for so I make it on weekends when they are with their dad. I would love to get some of this and figure out how to flash freeze it so I have it on hand for a while.
Of course, asparagus is a non-coupon item, so let's get back to the good stuff... There is an "On Your Next Order" deal with Tide, Charmin, and Bounty. They are specific items, but you get $5 back on your next order. They are good prices for a good sized package (other than the Tide, in my opinion), so it may be worth grabbing these if you are in need of them anyway. There were also coupons available in the January P&G so you may be able to grab some even cheaper.
I also saw that Ken's 9 oz dressings are $1 this week. When they had the BOGO deal last week, I picked up some marinades and dressings in the larger size, but these small bottles were not on sale, so I am fortunate to have a BUNCH of coupons for these leftover. The coupons are from 1/8/12 inserts and are $1/2, making them 50 cents per bottle. This is a good stock up price, especially if you use dressings for marinades or cooking like I do. I will definitely be grabbing several of these when I make my trip.
For more information and match-ups, check out the link I posted. There are constantly more people posting their finds, so read the forum to get more info about the sale and what other people have been buying. We Use Coupons is my major info source because so many people post their finds and sale successes so it helps when you're ready to make your trip to Shaw's. They also have other stores listed (like Rite Aid, Target, Walmart, and other national chains) so you don't just have to look at the Shaw's sale once you are there. Browse around and find some deals of your own!
