I spent the last three days trying to decide if I should even bother going to Albertsons – I wasn’t sure I’d find anything left as part of the Coupon Round-Up Event at my local store. Well I ended up going and I’m so glad that I did! I spent only $7.14 (over $1 was tax!) on all the items pictured – saving $40.67 with coupons and store sales.
Before I go into detail about what I bought, let me first say KUDOS to Albertsons! This promotion is soooo easy compared to the doubler or “Twice the Value” coupons. The computer automatically rounded up my coupons. No multiple transaction, no needing doubler coupons, no slowing down the line. I got a taste of what couponers in the midwest get to experience – using coupons without the added hassle and I LOVED it! So thank you Albertsons for your round-up events and please consider doing them more often. 🙂 Do others agree?
Now to the deals. . . here’s how it all shakes out:
Colgate toothpaste – $0.99, with in-ad coupon (limit 4)

See all our Albertsons posts here – there are a bunch this week, you can scroll through and look for Round-Up deals!
My Albertsons wouldn’t let me use the $0.75/1 any Colgate Max Fresh,Colgate Total,Colgate Optic White, or Colgate Sensitive Toothpaste 4oz. or larger because they said none of the toothpaste listed on the coupon is the one that the in-ad coupon applies to. Did anyone have this problem or can someone tell me if it is suppose to work still?
Thank you
My Albertsons would not increase the toothpaste coupons so I could get my toothpaste for free. I still got 2 for $.25 and 2 for $.50, but did anyone else run into this?
My Albertsons in Kingston had a store coupon for $5 off a $20 purchase that included Stayfree and Band Aid! I used all my rounded up coupons for the liners and got some Band Aids free after I rounded up coupons on them too.
I ALSO LOVE THE ROUND UP AND SO AGREE ITS ALOT EASIER AND LESS STRESS FULL THAN DOUBLERS, JUST WISH ALOT OF THE STUFF WASNT SOLD OUT BUT, SO FAR BETWEEN 2 ALBS, IVE GOTTEN 9 FREE TOOTHPASTE, 5 PANELINERS, 2 DIAL HAND SOAP,2 AIRFRESHNERS, ETC FOR FREE, STILL 2 MORE DAYS SO I MIGHT TRY ANOTHER ALBS, I WANT THE FREE PAPERTOWELS & MORE DIAL 🙂 tHANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO 🙂
