Albertson’s Weekly: new coupon policy, great deal on Seattle’s Best coffee

Lots of stuff going on this week at Albertson’s: they continue to double, triple, and quadruple coupons, which basically means that all of your coupons below $1 will multiply up t0 $1.00.

I shopped at Albertson’s yesterday and noticed they actually had a coupon policy posted at the checkout!  They didn’t have a copy that I could take with me, but here’s basically what it was:

• Limit of three like coupons will be doubled.  Any more than that will be redeemed at face value.
• Coupons that state “do not double” will not be multiplied.  (No mention of internet coupons that do not state DND)
• Overage is not given – coupon will only be multiplied up to value of item.
• If a face-value coupon is more than the value of the item, they will not give overage.

That’s what I can recall in my own words.  If you’re able to get an official copy of this policy, please contact me!

Moving on… If you’re a senior, you can get a 10% discount today.  They’re having a military discount day on Saturday, where active, reserve, or retired military personnel can receive an additional 10% off their order.  And, you can get 10% off on Sundays if you wear your football jersey.

There’s an in-ad coupon for a free turkey (up to 15 lbs) with a $100 purchase (the turkey does not count as part of the minimum purchase).  Last year at Thanksgiving, we saw turkeys anywhere from $0.39-$0.60/lb.  If you’re going to spend $100 anyway, get the free turkey, but I think we’ll see much better deals soon.
