Hmm… I got all excited about this week’s King Soopers deals when I saw that other Kroger stores were having a “Cart Buster Savings Event” with instant savings when you buy a certain number of products. Looks like we got the savings event without the instant savings! There are some good deals, but it doesn’t appear there’s any instant savings when you purchase a certain number.
The Cart Buster Savings Deals are listed in their respective categories since they’re just a normal sale.
Don’t forget that King Soopers doubles coupons, so if the math below doesn’t quite add up, that’s probably why. If you want to know which coupon insert a particular coupon came in, please use the link to the Coupon Databases below.

Thanks, Traci! I’ll update soon.
Ester-C is on sale for 40% off; this makes the 60 count box $5.15; after the $5/1 insert coupons, a pretty sweet deal on vitamin C! Also, I don’t know why, but when I went to KS last night, I got a $1 catalina. I bought 4 4-packs of pilsbury cresents, a clearance buttermilk, and 3 Ester-Cs. Any ideas? Not that I’m complaining or anything! Also, there is a catalina running on Kleenex: buy 4, get $1, buy 5, get $2, buy 6 or more, get $3 ONO. Is this a good deal combined with them being on sale for $1.57 this week? We’ve had a cold running rampant through our house for a week, so I’m down to my last box & will probably buy, but is it a “stock up” price? Thanks for everything you do, Carrie!
I’m pretty new to this so I’m not sure what is a stock up price, but Walgreens has the same “Buy 6, get $3RR” deal. It’s just a register reward instead of a catalina. There are $0.50/3 inserts and printables AND the Kleenex is Buy 1, get 1 free this week. They are $2.19, so after sale, coupons and the register reward it works out to $0.43 each if you buy 6! I’ve been stocking up. Oh, if you get the 200 count boxes there are “box tops” on the bottom so 10 cents each for a school! KS would be $.74 after the doubled coupons and the cat.
Thanks for the Ester-C deal! I’ve been waiting to use those coupons.
My $5/1 expired, and I can’t seem to find the new ones, maybe they weren’t in the Denver insert. But I did find $4/1 in another insert, still makes for a great deal! Thanks!
Silk soy milk is $2.50; there are insert coupons for $0.55/1, maiking them $1.50 each after doubling. My lactose intolerant Mom says this is a stock up price!
OOOPS!!!!! These coupons expired 2/28. My bad!!! Carrie, feel free to just delete this comment if you want! OOPS!
I got a $1.00 on one Silk coupon in the 2/21 Smartsource, but I was in Illinois that weekend and picked up a Chicago Tribune, so someone else would have to verify that we got it in this area.
WE got the $1/1 in the Denver are! :)
hmm… I’ll have to go look for mine again!
I have one and it came from the Gazette. $1 off and expires 5/31. I’m not using it. We really need an exchange. I no longer need baby coupons either and I never use the pet ones.
Was there an insert coupon for regular Secret? My coupon is for Secret Flawless.
The Secret Flawless is not on sale for $1.88 and my cashier wouldn’t honor the Secret Flawless coupon against the regular Secret.
Went to KS tonight at Centennial/Filmore. The Tide detergent that is on sale for 5.88 is the 50 fl oz. size. The BOGO coupon specifies that it must be 75 fl. oz. or more. I only saw 50 and 100 fl. oz. containers (100 was $12.99!!!).
Hi Ladies, just a couple more updates from my shop yesterday: I went to the Austin Bluffs & Academy location, if that makes a difference. Eggland’s Best eggs were on sale for $1.99; I used $0.50/1 insert coupons to get eggs for $0.99! It’s been a while since we’ve seen that price. :-) There are 3# rolls of 80% ground beef in the clearance meat section for $3.29- not super stellar, but not bad. My hubby will be thrilled to get some hamburgers! Also, I mentioned the Ester-C previously, but there are actually a whole bunch of vitamins on sale for 40% off. The Disney mulitvitamins are $4.19 w/ the sale. I had an insert coupon for $1/1 and there are also printables on Coupons.com. Sundown vitamins are included- I had a $2/1 insert coupon for those; also Nature’s Best Vitamins were included and I had a $1/1 coupon for those. Also, when I checked out, I received catalina coupons for $2/1 Sundown and $1/1 Nature’s Best! I’ll probably go back today for some more vitamins. Hope this is helpful! :-)
I just checked, there are actually a BUNCH of relevant coupons on coupons.com! :-)
Mission Burrito size tortillas are $2 through 3/23… Not as cheap as they were a month or two ago, but it’s a decent price if you want the larger size instead of the Caseras for $1.29.
*Disclosure: Mission Foods is a sponsor of Springs Bargains. :) *
Seems like there was another deal I saw today but now I can’t remember! I did finally get some Reach toothbrusehs – they’ve been out up until now! That sale ($1 each) runs until 3/23, too.
I’m excited about the Old Spice deodorant. It’s the only kind my husband will use.
