$25 in FREE groceries

Kraft and Albertsons have come together to offer $25 in free groceries. (Click here for the PYP announcement.) And yes, that is FREE. No coupons necessary. (If you use coupons, it makes it a money maker.) You will receive a $5 OYNSO catalina at the checkstand as well as a rebate form to get $20 back by mail. Although the offer is good from 8/7-8/23, this week is optimal since Albertsons has the items on a killer sale as well. Click here for Albertsons shopping list to plan your shopping trip.

Diapers

Thanks to my former roommate Claire for passing along this deal:

Right now KMart has a deal on Huggies if you buy $50 worth you get a $14 catalina towards your next purchase. Go to KMart.com and click on Email Specials here is the link http://www.kmart.com/shc/s/nb_10151_10104_NB_EmailSignup?adCell=WH and sign up to get a $5 coupon. Then take that coupon and your Huggies Diaper coupons, and one of the huggies wipes coupons. (You have to spend $50 or more to trigger the Catalina that is why I added the wipes) Get 5 packages of diapers $9.99 and 1 package of wipes $2.99 and use your coupons and you pay $35.48 OOP(out of pocket). You get a $14 catalina and if you factor that in the wipes end up being $2.24 before tax and the diapers end up being $3.88/package after tax and coupons. You could do any combination of diapers, pull-ups, wipes, etc. Also, starting 6/18 you get a $10 gift card when you buy a $50 gift card, so you could use it on this as well, making it $25.48 OOP.

Here are some current Huggies coupons:
Huggies Baby Wipes, 64 ct or larger .75/1 (7-18-09) SS-4/19
Huggies diapers, any $1.50/1 (6-20-09) SS-5/17

Spend $50, get $50 at Sears!

Last year Sears had a great Father's Day rebate. I was hoping they'd do another, and just found out they are! Here are the details from the sales addict:

Sears is doing a promotion right now, if you purchase $50 worth of Mens pants or Jeans by June 21, 2009 then you will receive a $50 in Sears Reward Cash! The Reward Cash can only be used on Mens Apparel through October. You will need to fill out and send in this rebate form, along with your receipt. For all details, view rebate form.

Edit: I just thought I'd point out that the form says that it can be submitted online. SO much easier, in my opinion! (And saves a little on postage too.)

Free Chocolate Anyone???

Every Friday through September, Mars is giving away free chocolate. Go here to enter your information to get a coupon mailed to you. Personally I think it's funny that you have to wait 6 weeks to get the coupon. But, it will be a fun surprise when it shows up!

Arby's

Who doesn't love Arby's? They have some of the yummiest sandwiches (turkey bacon club, for starters...) and their curly fries are so good. I joined Arby's Extras awhile ago. You can sign up here, then they send you coupons by email. They've had some good ones in the few months that I've been a member. The other day I received an email saying that they have specials every Wednesday throughout the summer and listed this months deals. Also, if you call in and complete a survey on the back of the receipt, you can get a free sandwich to go along. This full list was posted on pyp.

More on the P&G promo

When I saw this P&G promo, I thought that there would be some great deals to be discovered. In years past, this has been a big stock-up sale for me. I was a little disappointed in the original list, but there are more items connected to the promotion than what is in the ad.

On PYP, they listed a few more: CoverGirl cosmetics, Duracell batteries AA or AAA 4 ct., C or D 2 ct, 9V 1 ct, Herbal Essences or Aussie shampoo, conditioner, or styling products, Olay Skin Care, Gillette Venus or Fusion razors, Swiffer Wet or Dry refills, Swiffer furniture polish

Here's my trip from today:
2 261-count pampers wipes refill
2 gillette series aftershave
1 covergirl eyeshadow
total: $15.47 and received a $5 catalina

I had $1 off coupons for everything except the wipes. Then, I used the doublers from yesterday's paper. Basically, I just paid for the wipes and tax.

Buy $40 of qualifying products (many in the sale qualify, click here for a complete list) and a ham or turkey, get the price of the ham/turkey back up to $20. This promo gives you the meat free already, and the rebate is on top of that. Crazy good deal.

Also, watch for tearpad coupons on the displays. I saw coupons for marshmallows, jello, cream cheese, whipped cream, tartar sauce, and crystal light.

Albertsons Gift Card through 4/15

If you buy a $300 gift card, the bonus is $30. I like the idea of 10% more for my money! I'm curious how long it will take me to spend that $330...
