Every week I go through the online flyers for the stores where I shop, to see what great deals can be found. If you are a Safeway sale shopper (this is key - Safeway is the most expensive unless you only buy their sale items) you can find the flyer here. Superstore - here. And occasionally Costco will post them here. As mentioned, I have found Wal-mart to be most expensive, and as of yet, I don't check their online sales.
Here are the deals I have found this week for my family:
Safeway
Royale Bath Tissue - Double Roll or 24 Roll $5.00 Limit of 6. Superstore was $9+ and regular price at SF was almost $12.
Mangoes - 5 for $5
Axe Body Wash for my Hubs - $2.99 Superstore around $5, and regular $5+ at SF.
Colgate Toothpaste - BOGO This deal applied to all types, even the kids line.
Superstore
Dole Pinnaeples - $0.87 (On sale these are 4/$5 at SF, and usually around $1.25 each at SP). Obviously others too thought this a great deal. Large chunk cans were already sold out.
Listerine - $4.49 (I have a coupon for $3 off. Paired with the sale I will only pay $1.49).
In order to ensure that the Safeway deals, are in fact deals, I shop first at Superstore and write down the comparitive prices. For the Bath Tissue, I will also be checking the price of buying the item in bulk at Superstore. The Safeway deals last until April 28th, so I have some time to figure it all out.
In the past by shopping this way, I have learned:
- Tostitos on sale at Safeway are still $0.03 more per bag than regular price at Superstore.
- Eggs are cheapest at Costco costing $0.08 an egg - they are $0.19 & $0.20 cents an egg at Superstore & Wal-mart.
- Milk is cheapest at Superstore.
Today at SF I saved $73 by buying sale items in bulk!
I'm really excited about your blog! I try to look at flyers but I cant' ever get my act together to figure out if anything is actually a good deal or not. I'm hoping I can get some good tips from your hard work.
