Was in WF today and asked a manager about when to expect the next release of the mambo sprouts booklet.

WF has decided to start a new Mambo Sprout coupon booklet, except it is not a booklet at all. It's a magazine called, "the real deal"

Basically, the last few pages are coupons which pair with recipes and currently running sales which are represented inside the mag.

You can find this new WF/Mambo Sprouts mag at the usual spot (entry door and registers). Current issue is for 7/16 - 9/30 and all coupons expire 10/31/08.

Thanks, I'll have to look for this this week.

My EarthFare had an actual new MamboSprouts book -- the same style they have always had. Just FYI.

Thanks, I'll look for this next time I go to the store!

My store took the "new" pamphlets (not small booklet, large pamphlets that look like a magazine) and ripped out all of the coupons, and stacked the coupons at the end of the register for us all to take. Evidently, no one was using them since they weren't the small booklets we were all used to!

This is a brand new WF so they are super nice like that!

Actually it was because someone on the corporate level made a mistake -- the name "Real Deal" was some copyrighted title, so they had to pull all of the magazines/pamphlets!

The new ones are out in stores now, titled "The Whole Deal". Same coupons, same articles, legal title!

I added these all to the database.

Odd thing about the Oikos yogurt coupon - says manufacturer's coupon on top and then right above the bar code says "store coupon not subject to doubling" I'm guessing this is a typo.

I couldn't find an expiration date on the Steaz one either.

I didn't add the 365 degree ones because I think they are store coupons.

Yeah, I think they might be... I forgot to check to see if the barcode had a 5 or a 0.

I did since there none of the stores near me get them. I haven't gotten anything in the mail yet though...

They come out quarterly... it's possible that you might not get any until November or so.

On the message I got it said they arrive February, May and October. That's weird because a lot of my coupons expired 8/31. I wonder if they just changed that recently.

I think the ones that arrived in May were the ones that expired 8/31... but yeah, that would leave a gap.

I was in WH on Friday. Their new Mambo book was out. It had pretty much the same great coupons as the last one. I lucked up and they had a few from last month as well as a nice big stack of the new ones.
