Don't forget to get rainchecks! These are my one of my best friends lately :-) Regularly I go in when the stores are "out" of many things and get rainchecks for items that would be free after coupon or free after coupon and ttv if necessary. After the rainchecks are in hand I verify what coupons are needed to make the deal ordering extra q's when necessary. Albertson's has a 30-day raincheck policy so if I need ttv's to make the deal work I can usually do it within that period by placing an order with the manager.

My most recent raincheck deal was the Oscar Mayer Cracker Combos that were on sale last week $10/$10. Both stores were completely out (but then I waited until I knew they were) so I got rainchecks from both stores. With the $1/1 Oscar Mayer coupons I ordered that made them free. I love rainchecks!!!!

Weird. At my main Albies they said the Crystal Light size was a misprint and to purchase the larger tube ones for the spotlight savings. And at the store I went to today the larger ones were not part of the spotlight savings - instead the smaller boxes were.

I used a $1 off 1 printable doubled on these. Doubled to make it free.

So after taxing my brain since 5:30 this morning (massive research, ugh)...I said to Hub...I think I'm gonna pass on my shopping tonight...by his reaction alone one would think I just committed a crime...(only time you will probably ever hear me say...darn you EC for showing hub what I do and why I do it...it WAS my little pleasure, which is turning into an added chore lately with the big Man looking over my shoulder)

so needless to say...I spent an hour cleaning out my binders...then an hour or so matching coupons to Ad...now I am here checking out what you all had seemed to find...and yes I could have done it in a different order to save time but I always want to make sure, should you all disappear, I know what I am doing...Oh and lucky me...can't finish my rant because I have to go pick up my daughter from cheer...why...because I'm only couponing...grrrrrr.

okay back to my post...does anyone want to go shop for me tonight <giggle> Teasing...yanno listening to a high schooler replay funny things that happened gave me a bit of pep back...I can make it through this day...now to finish dinner...and then Albies here I come!! I pretty much have most of what you all have (except the crystal light...darn no coupons or I accidently pulled them).

Thanks JS (and Julie)for the list again...

Thanks for the tip on rain checks. With all the empty shelves recently, I now feel like I can score some crazy deals!
