Safeway weekly deals: August 5-11

There’s a pretty hot unadvertised cereal deal going on at Safeway this week – keep reading for more. And if you haven’t heard the news yet, all Safeways in Colorado are doubling coupons!   No more need for extra driving to get to a location that doubles.

Sunday’s Ad – Deals still good through Sunday, August 11:

Mission Soft Taco Tortillas 10 ct 99 ¢ with in-ad coupon – Good price. Insert here that we used to be able to get these for free quite regularly, but not for almost a year. No more free tortillas. :(

Quaker Chewy Granola Bars 99 ¢ with in-ad coupon

Welch’s Grape Squeeze Jelly $1.49 with in-ad coupon – Use a 55 ¢/1 when you buy jelly and milk and get the jelly for 49 ¢ and the milk for $1.58, a great deal!

Oscar Mayer Meat Weiners 99 ¢ with in-ad coupon – Good deal, these are actually on special to take $5 off when you buy any 5 Oscar Mayer products.   Too bad you can’t buy more than one for 99 ¢!

Kellogg’s Pop Tarts 99 ¢ with in-ad coupon

72-Hour Sale – Deals good Friday, Saturday, and Sunday Only:

Best Foods or Hellman’s Mayo $1.99 – Use 50 ¢/1 to get for 99 ¢, a great price.

Rice or Pasta Roni 89 ¢ – No coupons out and not that great of a price. Wouldn’t pay more than 50 ¢ for these unless you need ’em!

Meat, Dairy, and Frozen:

• Pork Shoulder Country Style Ribs 98 ¢/lb – Great, pretty frequent price. To me, this means I’ll buy a couple of packages, but no need to stock my freezer because it will come around again at some store in   afew weeks.
• Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts or Thighs $1.88/lb – Breasts are cheaper at Albies this week.
• Lucerne Gallon Milk $1.58

Produce:

• Palisade Yellow Peaches 99 ¢/lb – Like I said about King Soopers sale price, this is a decent price but it’s hard to say it’s great when we just paid 39 ¢/lb at Sunflower last week!
• Red or Black Plums 99 ¢/lb

General Grocery and Household:

There’s a bunch of in-ad coupons this week.   Remember that they require a $20 minimum purchase and are limit one.   Some great prices, but hard to stock up at a limit of one, huh?

• Pepsi 12Packs Buy 2 Get 3 Free plus a free bag of Tostitos– The 12-packs are regular $5.99 (yes, seriously!), so you’ll buy two and pay $11.98, plus get three more and a bag of chips for free, bringing the cost per item to $1.99, which is great for the 12-packs and marginally good for the chips.
• Select Kellogg’s Cereal $2.49, or $1.49 when you buy 4 or more – Cereals that I noticed were included were Raisin Bran, Mini Wheats, Cocoa Krispies, and Corn Flakes – I’m sure there are a few more.This was not advertised, but I noticed it was marked in the store!   I bought ten, used five $1/2 coupons and paid 99 ¢ for each box.   I’ll submit the Kellogg’s rebate for $10 and they’ll be FREE!   Wanted to wait for an even better sale, but we’re low on cereal and FREE is never bad. :) By the way, the $1 off each box did not come off at checkout and I had to go to customer service to get my money back.   Check your receipt!
• Oscar Mayer Event: Buy 5 Save $5 – I’m not seeing any amazing deals here, but leave a comment if you do.
• Lucerne Butter $1.49 with in-ad coupon – Good price if you’re not still stocked up from Easter sales!
• Lucerne Large Eggs 18 ct 99 ¢ with in-ad coupon
• Breyer’s Ice Cream $1.99 with in-ad coupon
• Barilla Pasta 69 ¢ with in-ad coupon
• Pam Cooking Spray $2.49 with in-ad coupon – I used a 35 ¢/1 to get one for $1.79, which is an *ok* price if you need it before Christmas sales start.

I’ve just listed the sales that I would consider good deals in this poist, so be sure to check out the entire ad online.
