Here are what I consider to be the top deals this week at MARTIN’S.  I verify the coupons that I mention with what I receive in my local paper, the Richmond Times-Dispatch (RTD).  Coupons are regional so you may not have the exact same coupon or the same face value.  Remember what I consider to be a good deal and what you consider to be a good deal may differ.  Please feel free to leave me a comment with any deals that you find.

There are lots of promotions in this week’s ad.  Please check back for separate posts on these and this week’s bonus fuelperks! REWARDS.

I found two different promotional savings shelf tags when I was in MARTIN’S picking up a few things and checking out some prices.  The first one was for $1.50 off ground beef when you buy two jars of select Vlasic pickles.  The second one was for $1 off ground beef when you buy two packages of Kraft American Singles. 

I tried to do the Vlasic deal with a package of 90% lean ground beef marked a Manager’s Special.  Because the Manager’s Specials don’t ring up as the specific item, but as a generic bar code with the price the $1.50 didn’t come off.  I went over to the Service Center before leaving the store and they told me that they could not give me the $1.50 off, but did allow me to return the pickles.  (I wasn’t planning on buying the ground beef until I found it marked down so I didn’t have my Vlasic coupons with me and I never pay full price if I don’t have to. )
