Coffee lovers, this deal is for you! Combine a coupon and a rebate to score some cheap java.
Buy Lavazza coffee, any variety except K-cups, regular price $4.99. Use a $2.00 Manufacturer’s coupon (11/9 Smartsource insert) combined with a $2.25 rebate. Total: $0.74!
I have done this deal twice so far and it worked perfectly. I had never tried Lavazza previously and it’s very good, especially for the price! In New England, look for it at Market Basket. Other regions, try Walmart.
Welcome to another edition of Super Savings Saturday!
This week was a bit slow, but Black Friday is around the corner and I need to conserve my strength anyway! I did find good deals by price matching, using coupons, and taking advantage of rebates!
Target:
I price matched the Market Basket sales.
2 Libby’s canned pumpkin, on sale $1.50. I used 2 $0.55 Target coupons stacked with a $0.75/2 Manufacturer’s coupon. Total: $1.15, plus a $0.25 rebate!
6 Barilla pasta, on sale $0.89. I used 2 $0.75/2 Target coupons stacked with 2 $1.00/3 Manufacturer’s coupons. Total: $1.84!
Rite Aid:
Mucinex tea, 4 ct, on sale $6.99. I used a free coupon from the weekly flyer. Total: Free!
Market Basket:
2 Huggies diapers, details here. Total: $3.72 for a huge pack!
4 Lipton tea, regular price $1.19. I used 2 $3.00/2 Manufacturer’s coupons (marked down). Total: Free!
Lavazza coffee, regular price $4.99. I used a $2.00 Manufacturer’s coupon. Total: $2.99, plus a $2.25 rebate!
Hannaford:
Ocean Spray cranberries, details here. Total: $0.24!
Sweet potatoes, on sale $0.49/lb. Total: $5.71!
I was very excited to stock up on the super-cheap pasta, diapers, tea, and coffee. Buying items at their lowest price helps me to continually replenish my stockpile for very little.
This deal on cranberries is just in time for Thanksgiving. My New England readers can find it at Hannaford; everyone else, head to Walmart! (If you shop at Walmart, the price may be slightly higher, but very close to Hannaford’s. Figure a difference of only a dime or two.)
Buy Ocean Spray cranberries, 12 oz, on sale $1.49. Use a $1.00 Manufacturer’s coupon and a $0.25 rebate. Total: $0.24!
I’m headed out to shop now, and later I’ll be sharing my recipe for homemade cranberry sauce. Yum!

Some coupons tips exclusive to Walgreens:
* There is maximum of 20 transaction per day when using Register Rewards.
* A Register Reward is considered a coupon. Walgreens only allows 1 coupon per item. If you want to use a manufacturer’s coupon and a Register Reward on a single item, you will need a filler.
Cheap filler ideas:
Nestle .77-2.1 oz & air heads 2 oz, $0.49 with in-ad coupon.
Sunny smile paper towels bath tissue single roll, $0.59 or 2/$0.88
* Register Reward is issued by the company, not the product. An example would be if you buy Cover Girl which is made by P&G and use the reward to buy Crest, you will not get another reward!
* If you buy two identical items that produce Register Rewards in the same transaction, you will only earn one reward—separation is key!
Wishing everyone a huge haul at the “Coupon Olympics,” AKA Black Friday!
