Moonlight shopping for groceries………..now that’s a new one! Yea, the things we will do to feed our families.
My Albertson stops all sales/ads at midnight and the new ads start at 6:00 am. Makes it easy , I do not need to worry about being first in the store just after midnight with all the scary people out.
Jen, GREAT JOB! I am a couponer as well. Went out at 11:30 Saturday night to start my double couponing. OMG, saw three people walk out of the store with bottles of booze without paying and felt kinda creepy being out so late by myself.( The things we do to feed our families) I tried to get all the deals with catalinas so I could score some free meat the next day. I didn’t get to sleep until 4am. Went out at 9am and got soooper lucky getting $48.00 worth of Ground Turkey, Turkey Sausage, and chicken breasts for 64 cents after catalinas and doublers. Meat and produce seem to be hard to coupon for. I was so happy with my score, I just had to share. I got some trail mix, Starbucks Refreshers, banana peppers, yogurt, cereal, and quite a few other sooooper great deals. Thank you and The Queen Bee for making it FUN to save money and feed my family. ENJOY COUPONING!
Thanks Anna! Sounds like you got some AWESOME deals too! I also stocked up on Chicken breasts this week and got some Hormel bacon, Tillamook cheese, eggs, milk and even peaches, plums and grapes with the catalinas and doublers 🙂 (Not all stores will let you double them, but I am lucky to have some great coupon friendly Albertsons stores in my area).
I never thought of going out on Saturday night! I’m a night owl so I might try that next time. The 2 Albertsons that are closest to me close at midnight but there is another about a mile away that stays open 24 hours.
So glad we can help you save money and have fun! I’ve been couponing non-stop since I started in November of last year and I still shake my head when I think about how much money I could have saved if I had discovered it early (I have 2 kiddos, 6 and 10, and we always paid full price for diapers, formula, and everything else that comes with babies) Yikes!
