Just a Little Tip

Just as said I was coming back the internet goes out. There's Murphy for you.

I hope you snagged some great deals with the Dillon's Mega Event the past two weeks. I did the deal 5 or 6 times over. I been waiting for this deal for so long! I wish my internet was up to help you out with this one. Here's a tip for next time just in case. Dillons flier barely scratches the surface for these big events. Hit the store before your shopping spree to grab a print out located by the fliers or around the store. It lists dozen more products and by category so that they are easy to find in your coupon stash. Also, I found a second, but smaller, list at Dillons Marketplace that had a couple more items on it then the big list.

My favorite item from this deal...the Ziplock containers. I love containers! I wish I'd bought more. Regret.

Clearanced Diapers and Pull-Ups

Just as we're well on our potty training quest and nearing the end for pull-ups Dillons decides to clearance theirs. Dillons at 37th and Woodlawn has clearance section in the back by the dairy and had lots of pack of diapers, easy-ups, and under jams at clearance prices. Prices ranged from $4 - $7 for jumbo size packages. There was even a mega box for $10. Grab your Pamper coupons and go because when these are gone they will probably not restock them. Let me know if you see this deal elsewhere as well.

We'll see how it pans out. Every week I hoping for a mega sale to use up all the coupons that seem to be wasting away. My pantry couldn't handle it right now with all the cereal sitting around anyway.

This week at Dillons Kellogg's Cereals are $2.18. Find 8 Kellogg's coupons on my coupon bar to the right for $1 and it makes them $1.18 each. That's a good deal.

Also consider printing the Fresh Express Salad coupons as well. You can often find these on Manager Special and combined with the coupon that would make a great deal!

Dinner Deal!

Looking for an idea for dinner this week? Sargento Potato Topper's make a great meal for 2-4 people in your family. This week at Dillons Sargento Potato and Salad Toppers are on sale 2/$5 and there is a blinkie (coupon dispenser near the product) for $1 each. That makes them $1.50 a piece. Not a bad price for dinner.

Want to make it even better? I found Baby Butter Lettuce salad packages and potatoes on MS for $1.50. Add on the chicken nuggets for $1 for the kids and yourself and you've got a great meal going!

Better Yet! There was a rebate for Sargento I talked about here. I'm not sure what the expiration was on this, but if you still have it and it's still valid this would be a great deal!

My All-Time FAVORITE Dillons Deal!!

This is the one deal (ok, so there may be others too) I NEVER pass up! If you have never done this deal you are in luck. Dillons has Fast Fixin' Chicken nuggets on sale 10/$10. These are delicious chicken nuggets and 6 of these nuggets are healthier than 1 McDonald's nugget!

Here's what you do:
Go to the Fast Fixin' website here. When you sign up at their site you get ten $.30 coupons. Don't forget to refresh the page so you can print them again if possible.

There is also a survey to complete under "More Coupons" that will earn you a $.75 coupon (refresh and print twice).

They use to give out $1 coupons, but the $.30 double will still make a great deal. Even if you don't have any coupons for the product they are worth stocking up on for a dollar each. I buy at least 12 packs each sale (it won't come around again for about 12 weeks). You can feed about three to four people per package. I love using these when we have babysitters because it is easier and less messy than pizza or mac & cheese. I also love getting the popcorn size and strips and use them to make chicken caesar salads for James and I while the kids eat theirs with sauce.

Update** The coupons the site is now giving out is for the 20 oz nuggets which are not part of the deal. Disappointing. However, trust me they are worth a dollar spent. Also you can send in 10 UPC codes for a coupon for a free product.

Dillons Deals 4/15-4/21

Sorry all! We're getting ready for a vacation and the needs of getting my family ready for that is out weighing getting these deals up sooner. I'm looking forward to vacation and I'm looking forward to coming home and getting back into my regular routine of things as well. Next week I won't be posting any Dillons' Deals (hopefully I won't miss out on any great sale) and after that I hope to get them posted early in the day on Wednesday. Thanks for your patience.

10/$10 Mix and Match Sale! (Remember you don't have to buy 10 of any item to receive the sale price. Consider everything on sale for $1.)

Dillons Deals 4/8-4/14

I'm currently planning three big events for our family and the Dillons lady wouldn't let me have this weeks flier early and those are my excuses for not getting the deals posted this week until now. Can I also add to those that there's not many great deals to be had a Dillons this week either. Don't be discouraged though, Dillons is about due for another good sale sometime soon. They're always worth the wait and you'll be glad for your stock pile of coupons (I hope).

Dillons Diaper Sales

According to babycheapskate.blogspot.com Kroger brand stores (like our Dillons) had the best sale on Huggies and Pampers more weeks out of a year than any other store! This is one of those weeks. There are many tricks to the trade when buying cheap diapers according to her site, but two of them are 1) Jumbo sizes are usually the best value and 2) $8.99 is one of the cheapest sale prices you can find for Huggies or Pampers. So the cards have been dealt in our favor at Dillons with this weeks $3/3 Mix and Match. In order to save the $3 you must buy 3 participating products. This week Pampers Jumbo packs are only $8.99 when you buy 3 participating items (ie. 3 Pampers Jumbo packs). Combine this with any Pampers coupons you may have and you have an amazing deal according to babycheapskates. Read her full article on her 5 rules to saving big bucks and name brand diapers here.

Dillons ONE DAY ONLY Sale 4/2

With Easter ahead and eggs to be dyed this is the best deal for eggs that can be found! I've only seen this price at Aldi one week and it was sadly gone the next. Time to stock up! And did you know that eggs can last for several weeks in the refrigerator and even several months in the freezer.

Dillons Deals 4/1-4/7

Here are the deals for Dillons this week. Although there were other coupon match ups that can be found, many of them did not make the best deal for the price and were not worth mentioning. Dillons is having another slow week, but their big sales are always worth the wait.

Make sure to read my reports on Dillons One Day sale and Diaper deals in my posts above.

Keep in mind that my Dillons double all coupons up to a dollar and also accepts expired coupons up to two weeks old.

Just A Heads Up!

It looks like Dillons may be having a $10/10 sale this coming promotion week. I'll try to get some match ups posted when they come available to me. Hopefully there will be a couple good deals to be had. Just a quick reminder, you do not have to buy 10 items to get them for $1 each unless stated in the ad.

I'm hoping to still score big on this weeks 10 item mega event before the deals end. I'll post my shopping trip for this week sometime on Wednesday. Our family goal this month is $40 a week for groceries. Check back to see what I came home with!
