Steals and Deals #9


I am so glad I got a chance to go couponing without the little one! I love him to death, but it's easier and quicker when the husband can watch him. That saying, I hit up Target for some free cat food and Albertsons for everything else. I was contemplating Albertsons and their round up, just because I wasn't sure that I would find good deals. Basically, any manufactured coupon $0.24 and lower, they will round quadruple the value. Say you have a $0.15 coupon; that will round to 4x's that, so $0.60 off. Any coupons $0.25 and higher, they will round to $1. It's different than their twice the value where they just double every coupon. I hope that's not too confusing ha. Not all Albertsons do this either. I'm glad ours does, since it's the only store to double or quadruple coupons. I ended up getting quite a few good deals though.
