The same went for the MANUFACTURER coupon found in the Tops ad... (free 12 pack of Pepsi Max coupon)... They wouldn't accept it because they knew it came from the Tops ad... While this isn't a problem for generally ANY OTHER STORE... BECAUSE IT IS A MANUFACTURER COUPON... it does seem to be a problem for the Giant. I simply asked the cashier to deduct those items...
On another note: I was thinking... I share EVERYTHING with you that I get for free... or nearly free. The reality of it is... my family does NOT completely exist on Free or nearly Free.
Yes, there are coupons out there for Meat.. usually they go something like this for example: $1 off Beef WYB A1 Steak Sauce. The cheapest beef I've seen in a long time was the sale at the Giant last week... 73% Ground Beef @ $1.48 lb. However, I didn't notice the A1 on sale.
Shopping with coupons and stocking up on non-perishables allots more money to purchase the perishables... such as meat, dairy & fresh produce. With that said I do suggest that you purchase at least TWO Different MEAT PACKS A WEEK (something on sale)... split, wrap and freeze.
This is what my purcahse at the Giant consisted of:
Fresh Chicken Drumettes (3.67 lbs) 1/$2.28 (Sale) (2 Meals)
Final Cost $8.37
SPLURGE: Extreme Couponing & Sale Shopping is like being on a diet... Just like when you're dieting you should treat yourself but in moderation... This week's Splurge:
Fresh Baby Back Ribs (3.08 lbs) 1/$3.99 (No Sale) (1 Meal)
Final Cost $12.29
Baby Back Ribs are cheaper at Save-A-Lot in Wellsville... Last time I checked they were $2.99 lb
Fresh Flat Iron Steak (0.92 lbs) 1/$4.88 (Sale) (1 Meal)
Final Cost $4.49
Extra Laundry Detergent 2/$4
Use Xtra Printable Coupon (2) $1/1
Final Cost 2/$2 or $1 each
Transaction Total $27.15 + Sales Tax $0.34 = $27.49
