Albertson GM Scenarios

If you have not already, read the full post HERE about the Albertsons sale this week.

You may have noticed - Albertsons is trying to be tricky with their pricing this week ( or love giving us headaches trying to do the math - like it's not already hard enough!!).

All the prices are .99, .79, .69, etc.. So, that means we will have to get creative to get to $30. If your even $.01 short, the $15 OYNO will not print! Here are some of my ideas, please share your own scenarios! They may seem random, but you can substitute items of the same price!

They've got tons of the Dove hair care at the Albertsons at Greenhurst and 12th. 227 bottles in today, and another 227 coming tomorrow!

Wow! That's a lot of Dove :). they are always well stocked over there!

Are their any special deals on the Dove hair care products?

Tamra said...

Other than the spen $30 get 15 9see my previous albertsons post, I'm not aware of any. Then end up being $1 to a $1.50 if you have any coupons (printables are available) for the big sized bottles.

Visted the Albertsons on 12th and 7th in Nampa. FYI for all your couponers looking for the Cinnamon Toast Crunch using the $.55 off coupon from smartsource.com. They would not accept it because they stated it did not have the water mark on the coupon. Never happened to me before. Go to a different store to redeem this coupon.
