Check Out The Albertsons’ Baby & Toddler Aisle

April 28, 2012 by Momstart 487 Comments

Sitting here trying to work just reminds me that I need to go to the grocery store. I’m out of a lot of things and Albertsons is the closest grocery store to my house. We love running in there whenever we need something for dinner and I need vegetables tonight. When the kids were little I would usually get their baby food at Albertsons too. Why? Yes one reason was because it was convenient to get it there. I was already going my grocery shopping and their food was on the list too but also because when they had good deals they had good deals and they often have good deals. April is pretty much over but it was baby month and last month they were full of deals. But have no fear, it’s Albertsons and the sales never end there.

You just have to keep your eyes peeled!!!

To celebrate being a mother and the quality products that Albertsons sells for mothers and their babies they sent me some products. I’d forgotten how many different brands they carried for baby food and skincare products. They sell everything you need to take care of a baby.

They sent me Beech Nut items that have Winnie the Pooh characters on them. And surprisingly almost all of the food they sent was organic or all natural. Albertsons even sent a kit to make your own baby food and things to clean up with too. I love Johnson’s baby wash. Not only can you clean up your baby with these products they also have special tools to clean your bottles, oh and get your bottles and pacifiers there too. Just look at all these products:

I also received the above gift basket that I’m donating from Albertsons and they are providing the prize as well.

This giveaway has ended. Congratulations to the winner, Sadie B.

September 12, 2010 by Momstart 6 Comments

I had to blog about this because this is a stock your freezer type of sale. My husband and I love Tillamoock ice cream, heck, we love almost everything Tillamock makes. We get super excited when Tillamook ice cream is on sale for 2 for 9.00 so when I saw the sale I grabbed three and am currently considering going back to Albertons to purchase more on Tuesday before the sale ends. Their flavors are Strawberry Cheesecake, Sweet Centennial, Banana Split, Bubble Gum, Caramel Butter Pecan, Caramel Toffee Crunch, Chocolate, Chocolate Peanut Butter (my favorite), Coffee Almond Fudge, Cookies and Cream, Cookie Dough, Espresso Mocha, French Vanilla, Marionberry Pie, Mint Chocolate Chip, Mountain Huckleberry, Old-Fashioned Vanilla, Oregon Black Cherry, Oregon Strawberry, Rocky Road, Tillamook Mudslide, Udderly Chocolate (my second favorite), Vanilla Bean, Wild Mountain Blackberry.

There is also a good Kelloggs and General Mills promotion going on until Tuesday, Check your local ad for details. Back to School time is the best time to stock up on snacks and cereal. Stock your pantry and save!

Tillamook, I would love to try your Grandma’s Cake Batter Ice Cream but I have not been able to find it. Can you please mail me some. I’m only about four hours away!

I Saved over 100.00 at Albertsons: Here’s How

August 14, 2010 by Momstart 9 Comments

I haven’t been clipping coupons like I used to. I’ve just been too busy with my blog. I know how much I can save when I’m serious about clipping so I sat down the other day and clipped some coupons while checking out the Back To School grocery ads. Albertsons makes it the easiest for me to save money, especially when General Mills is giving Albertsons a kick back and Albertsons shares that kick back in an extra savings event.

For every 10 items you purchase within the General Mills savings event, you receive and additional 5.00 off in savings. I ended up saving 111.81 with combined in store sales and grocery coupons. I spent 51.27 and had five paper bags packed to the brim with groceries.

All five bags:

This is couponing at it’s best. How do I do it? I sign up for coupons at every turn. I sign up for free product coupons when they come out on facebook, or on all of the freebie sites. You could spend a lot of time hunting everything down yourself, or just do a few searches on-line and you’ll find places that do all the work for you. The Coupon Mom does some of the stores for you and shows you how to get everything for free. She isn’t very big in the Pacific Northwest but she does do Safeway, Rite Aid, and Walgreens.

The coupons I used were just from the Sunday inserts in the newspaper, and a few peelies from products in-store. Peelies are the coupons that you find on package inside the store. Boxes of Betty Crocker potatoes ended up being 50 cents a box and so were Old El Paso refried beans. We eat burritos a lot so I just stocked up my pantry on these items that we use often. Making yourself familiar with brands that are under a particular manufacturer also help when trying to maximize your savings for events like this.

Found another coupon to share – Mueller’s Pasta Coupon

July 14, 2009 by MomStart 2 Comments

I love saving money and the best way is to clip those coupons and use them as cash at the grocery store. In order to do that you need to find as many sources for coupons as you can. One way is on-line coupons. On-line coupons usually need to be printed in color for the store to accept them. Seems that pasta is pretty easy to get free or almost free. I often see it for sale 10 for 10 at Safeway and Albertsons. The brands seem to vary too, one week one will be on sale and the next week the other will be on sale.

Did you know that feeding your family a pasta dinner can cost less than $5, depending on the ingredients you choose? Mueller’s Pasta, one of the great brands from American Italian Pasta Company (AIPC). Versatile, affordable, and delicious, Mueller’s pasta truly is perfect for your family meals. With multiple shapes and varieties to choose from, you can create dishes that are hot or cold, hearty or light and fresh, at a very reasonable cost. I know that sometimes we all feel a bit bored cooking the same pasta dishes over and over, so we want to inspire you with great family recipes and a printable coupon at www.pastavalue.com

Please Print Mueller Pasta Coupon. Save 1.00 on three boxes of pasta.

Mueller’s Pasta is not available everywhere, find locations at www.makesameal.com

Saved 50% at Albertsons

May 12, 2009 by MomStart Leave a Comment

We went grocery shopping yesterday and it was an unplanned trip. I was lucky that I had my coupons with me. I purchased a paper and found doubler coupons for Albertson in there.

Albertsons has decided to stop taking competitor coupons so on Sundays in the news paper they are putting three double your coupon coupons in there.

We purchased Creamer which is impossible for us to save money on because we use so darn much. DARN YOU coffee-mate.

So 10 creamers,

26 Fuzes and I got 14 of them free.

3 2 liters of Pepsi (my DH had a craving)

animal crackers

cottage cheese

two dole fruit packages

I still saved 50 percent. I love coupons and doubler coupons.
