Some Meijer info.

I recently ran across this great Detroit-area blog, called Macomb Money Savers. Since I don't ever do sales/match-ups here, I thought those of you Meijer shoppers who may be interested could bookmark that site.

Also, I don't think I've posted it here before, but My Price Savings is a great site you can use to preview the Meijer ads for the coming week. The ads are typically posted on Friday afternoons, but sometimes as early as Thursdays. Keep in mind if you are in Ann Arbor or Ypsilanti the prices tend to run slightly higher.

And finally, there are some fabulous deals at Meijer this week. They're running their 10/$10, 11th item free sale which means when you purchase 11 eligible items you will get each for 90 cents. Plus there are coupons available for many of the items which means you can fill your pantry, fridge and freezer for pennies. Be cautious with this sale though... there are items included that are typically less than a buck but the prices get raised for this "sale". The Gerber baby food is an example.

The moneymakers this week are:
Coffeemate creamers @ 1.00 each. Buy 3 and use .50/1 coupons (the first two will double). You'll pay .50 and get a catalina for 1.00 off your next order. (Thanks, Jessica!)

Dole bagged salads @ 1.00 each. Buy 2 and use the 1.00/2 Mealbox coupon. Then go to the meat/seafood department of your Meijer store and look for the Meijer Living Naturally booklet, which has a 1.50/2 manufacturer's coupon. You can stack this with the Mealbox q to get overage.

The only really good organic item included in this sale is organic mushrooms. I'll be getting a few, especially with the overage I'll have from the salad and coffeemate.

Also free or close to it with coupons... Betty Crocker Warm Delights and Land O'Lakes spreadable butter. Anyone see anything else?

Also tropical fish are included in the 10/$10 sale. Which creeps me out for some reason.
