Check out the coupon preview for Sunday now!

The coupon preview for this Sunday’s inserts is now available! There will be 2 Smartsource insert and one Red Plum insert available (only the coupons for the Smartsource insert are listed right now).

Check out out by clicking on the link below!

So far, I see Pillsbury coupons that will go well with the catalina deal at Kroger (see the Kroger match-ups for details), Kleenex coupons that will match well with a catalina deal at Randalls (I’ll post later today), and Campbell’s soup coupons which will match well with the Kroger sale.

CATALINA DEALS:

Right now, there is a catalina deal on Old El Paso products:

Buy Old El Paso taco shells, dinner kits, seasoning, refried beans, or heat & serve sides through 10/4/09:
Buy 3, get $1 OYNP of beef or chicken
Buy 6, get $3 OYNP of beef or chicken
(all Old El Paso items must be purchased in one transaction)

There are loadable coupons for .60/2 on Old El Paso products at shortcuts.com and cellfire.com. There are also peelie coupons on many Old El Paso items for free seasoning when you buy 2 items. So, the cheapest way to do this is to buy 3 seasoning packets which are priced at about .79/each. If you have the peelie coupon (it is hot pink), after the shortcuts and cellfire coupons come off, you end up paying about .38 for three seasoning packets and you get a coupon for $1 off your next beef or chicken purchase!

Another possibility is to buy 2 of the Old El Paso beans which are priced at about $1.15 (prices may vary by location) and one seasoning packet. If you have the peelie coupon, after the shortcuts and cellfire coupons come off, you end up paying $1.10 for two cans of beans and a packet of seasoning and you have $1 off your next beef or chicken purchase!

Target toy deals for the week of 9/20

Family Game Night Deal: Buy Hungry Hungry Hippos Game, Connect 4X4 game, Bop It! game, or Monopoly Championship Edition game – on sale for $15/each, get a 2 liter Pepsi drink and free Doritos item

In previous years, the cheapest I have seen these is during the Black Friday sales when they are usually about $5, so this is a great deal!

This is not in the ad, but the regular price on the Cranium preschool games is $9.99. This includes Puppy Pals Bingo, Polar Bear A-B-C, and Duck Duck 1-2-3. There is a $5 off printable Target coupon here making these $4.99/each. You can also get the regular version of Cranium for $14.99 using this coupon.
