Gold Medal flour at rock-bottom price at Albies!

Albertsons is doubling and tripling coupons again! Coupons 50¢ to 99¢ will be doubled to $1, and coupons 33¢ to 49¢ are tripled to $1. No word on an official policy – some stores will double/triple any coupons, some won’t do ones that say “do not double”, some won’t double internet coupons…

Colorado Albertsons, if you are reading this, please release an official policy so we know what to expect! As it is, many of us don’t shop your stores for the double coupon events because it’s frustrating to have different rules every time we go. :)

As I mentioned last night, I’m attempting to transition to showing the date and insert information for coupons that came in the newspaper for those of you that I haven’t yet convinced to clip and file. ;) I’d love your feedback as I implement this new feature!
