Ukrop’s Deals for Double Coupon Wednesday and 5/3-5/8

What a sad week – this is the last week there will be any Ukrop’s stores left in Richmond.  I told my husband that I was going to keep this week’s Ukrop’s ad as a Richmond collectible.  If you are able to get to one of the remaining stores don’t forget to check your $0.75 coupons to double on Wednesday.  MARTIN’S is only truly doubling up to $0.50. 

Here is a link to this week’s ad. 

I did find two FREE items, Clif Bars and Honest Tea.  Unfortunately you will have to locate a Mambo Sprouts coupon booklet to obtain the free Clif Bars.  I spoke with the Natural and Organic section manager at a MARTIN’S yesterday and was told that she didn’t think that they would be getting the booklets anymore.  I haven’t seen them in Kroger recently either.  I did an on-line search and it looks like Elwood Thompson’s has the booklets.  I am going to try to go there tomorrow and check it out.  You will have to register to print the coupon for Honest Tea, if you have printed this coupon before you may not be able to print it again.

Here are some guidelines for Ukrop’s coupon policy:

Ukrop’s will double manufacturer coupons up to $0.99 on Wednesdays only.

Ukrop’s will not double more than 5 like coupons per transaction.

Ukrop’s does accept internet printable (IP) coupons up to a face value of $2.  They do not accept IP coupons for a free item.  This includes buy 1 get 1 free.

Ukrop’s Match-ups for the week of 4/26 –5/1

 

It is getting really sad to walk into a Ukrop’s these days.  I have to admit I have found some great clearance deals, but it still saddens me as to the reason why.  The shelves in the remaining stores are bare and the ad is rather slim as well. If you want to see an on-line version of the ad click here.  There are some good deals still out there and it looks like free toothbrushes on Wednesday.

Don’t forget that MARTIN’S won’t be doubling coupons over $0.50 so if you have any higher value coupons you have been holding onto it may be a good time to use them.

Here are some guidelines for Ukrop’s coupon policy:

Ukrop’s will double manufacturer coupons up to $0.99 on Wednesdays only.

Ukrop’s will not double more than 5 like coupons per transaction.

Ukrop’s does accept internet printable (IP) coupons up to a face value of $2.  They do not accept IP coupons for a free item.  This includes buy 1 get 1 free.

Ukrop’s Match-ups 4/12-4/17 and Double Coupon Wednesday

 

Well, once again I am going to say how sad I am that the Ukrop’s era is coming to an end.  I realize that it is just a grocery store and there are far more important issues in the world beyond where I can buy my groceries and use my coupons.  I have LOTS to be thankful for and I am not go to share that right now, the list would be longer than one of my famous spreadsheets.  :)

The advertised deals are starting to fade, it doesn’t seem as if there are as many.  I have heard of lots of deals people are finding at the stores.  I have found that these deals really do vary by store.  You may notice lots of signs that either say “This Store Only” or “TSO”.  If you have the time, walk the aisles and see what is marked down.  I have seen things like Food Club Jellied Cranberries and Food Club Olives for $0.25 a can.  I have noticed that select Sauer’s spices are marked down.  (If you still have the $0.50 off one Sauer’s Spice or Extract coupon from the 3/28 SS you could get a really good deal.)  Feel free to share any deals that you find and if you could where you found it, because it really does vary by store. 

There are some decent weekly deals that don’t have coupons available like the Fieldale Value Pack Bone-in Split Chicken Breast for $0.98/lb, and the Smithfield Fresh Pork Picnic Shoulder for $1.28/lb. 

Here are some guidelines for using coupons at Ukrop’s:

Ukrop’s will double manufacturer coupons up to $0.99 on Wednesdays only.

Ukrop’s will not double more than 5 like coupons per transaction.

Ukrop’s does accept internet printable (IP) coupons up to a face value of $2.  They do not accept IP coupons for a free item.  This includes buy 1 get 1 free.

Double Coupon Wednesday Shopping & Other Deals

I didn’t get to Ukrop’s until late again this week.  We got back into to town around mid-afternoon today, but after unpacking the car and getting everyone and everything in the house we were all ready for naps.  By the time we all got up it was time to hit the ground running so that we could get over to church. 

I really just loaded up on essentials that we were out of because of our trip and I did find a few close-out items that I splurged on.  I even bought a bag of potato chips for Steve. 

Here is a picture of my purchases tonight – because of junk miscellaneous items on the kitchen table I choose a different setting. 

• Charmin Ultra Strong (12 double rolls) - $5.38 (not pictured)
• Food Club Fruit Crisp Mix - $0.45
• Joe’s Market Flatbread - $1.50
• (2) Ken’s Ranch Dressing (8 oz) - $0.75 each
• (4) Dole Mandarin Oranges - $0.50 each
• Swiffer Dusting Cloths - $2.99
• Ukrop’s Bottled Water (24 pk) – $2.49 (not pictured)
• Grandma Utz Kettle Chips - $2.50
• Tums Smoothies - $1.59 (I needed them ASAP)
• Oscar Mayer Fully Cooked Bacon - $1.48
• Perdue Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast (2.83 lb) - $5.32
• Perdue Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast (2.55 lb) - $4.79
• Organic Gala Apples (1.73 lb) - $2.92
• Bananas (2.69 lb) - $1.32
• Cucumber - $0.99
• (2) Earthbound Farms Organic Spring Mix - $1.89
• D’Anjou Pears (2.55 lb) - $3.29
• Alouette Spread - $1.84
• (3) Joe’s Market Biscotti - $1.50 each
• Reusable Bag Credits (-$0.10)

Shelf Price (before sales, coupons, bag credits, or tax): $113.50

Final Price (after sales, coupons, bag credits, before tax): $50.53

Total Savings: $62.97 (55%)

This was not my best shopping trip, but almost half of my spending went to a little over 5 pounds of chicken breast for about $10 and about $12 on fresh produce.  I also picked up some household items like the toilet paper, the swiffers, and the bottled water (for trips).  I guess I am just trying to justify my $4.50 for 3 packages of biscotti. :)

Did you find any great deals this week?  Feel free to share.

Ukrop’s Coupon Match-up and Deals April 5-10

We are on a mini-family vacation for a few days in Washington, DC with some other members of my family.  We left Richmond mid-afternoon after church after a trip back home to gather last minute items and to pack-up the car.  I did make sure I had my Ukrop’s sales flyer with me and my coupons.  (Yes - I travel with my coupons if possible.) 

I realized when I was double checking the match-ups that I don’t have an insert with me.  I am missing the 3/14 SS.  There is one coupon that may be available in that insert for Kingsford Charcoal that I remember seeing but don’t remember the verbage.  Please check behind me because I am not sure of the wording on the coupon or if there are restrictions. 

Because of our mini-vacation I haven’t had a chance to visit Ukrop’s this week to verify some items (like what Special K cereals are included in The Big Deal) or to look for any unadvertised specials.  I do want to encourage you if you have some extra time to check out any of the Ukrop’s store brands (Ukrop’s, Food Club, Full Circle, Joe’s Market)  for some great close-out deals.  There are also appear to be some brands that MARTIN’S may not plan to carry that are also marked down.  The sales vary by store based on the inventory they have and when they are scheduled to be shut down for the remodel.  If you want to double check the store closing list check out this post. 

There are some good deals at Ukrop’s this week feel free to check out an on-line version of this week’s ad if you don’t have the paper copy with you.  I am once again only listing the items that are advertised and have a coupon available for match-up.  The coupons that will double on Wednesday are in red. 

I have included several links to internet printable coupons.  You will have to register first before you can print the coupons from Home Solutions and Stonyfield.

I want to point out that there are Value Packs (usually around 2+ pounds) of Perdue Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast on sale this week for $1.88/lb. The last time this was on sale I tried to combine this deal with the Friday only 50% off chicken deal and it did not work.  Although I personally don’t think that $1.88/lb is a bad deal for boneless skinless chicken breast. 

Here are some guidelines for using coupons at Ukrop’s:

Ukrop’s will double manufacturer coupons up to $0.99 on Wednesdays only.

Ukrop’s will not double more than 5 like coupons per transaction.

Ukrop’s does accept internet printable (IP) coupons up to a face value of $2.  They do not accept IP coupons for a free item.  This includes buy 1 get 1 free.

Double Coupon Wednesday and other Ukrop’s Deals

I had an adventure this morning that led to Megan and I not getting to Ukrop’s Wednesday morning while Natalie was at preschool.  It just did not work out for me to get to Ukrop’s in the afternoon before our much needed afternoon naps, so I went to the Carytown store that is just a few minutes from our church after Wednesday night Bible Study.  I had a stack of coupons to use and was happy to find they had what I wanted in stock.  It was already after 9 when we got to the store and since it is not my “normal” store I had to backtrack a few times to find items that I wanted to pick-up.  But, here is the exciting news – I found TONS OF CLEARANCE!  I am going to be very sad to see Ukrop’s officially leave in the next 2 months, but I have to admit I love finding super inexpensive pantry items. 

Here is a picture of my “haul” from Wednesday night:

I had so many groceries that I had trouble “staging” all of it for the picture.  There are lots of things that are hard to see so, you will just have to take my word for it that it is all there.

• Betty Crocker Frosting - $0.29
• Betty Crocker Cake Mix - $0.29
• (6) Dole Pineapple Chunks - $0.50 each*

Shelf Price (before sales, coupons, or tax): $232.34

Final Price(after sales, coupons, before tax): $70.96

Total Savings: $161.38 (69%)

*I found coupons on ebay for $0.50/2 Dole Canned Fruits – I had Natalie helping me and somehow I ended up with 11 cans of fruit so I had to pay the full sale price for one can

**The Food Club Creamer had a 33% off sticker but the cashier missed the thrift sticker and I didn’t realize it until we got home.

***The Elmo & Veggie Tales DVDs were manually marked down to $1 each so the manager had to override the price and the original price and total savings was not shown on my receipt. 

I saved $52.60 in just coupons – that is before the sale price.  I think that is a pretty decent “payday” for the 30 minutes or less it takes me to find and clip coupons.  

How about you - have you found any great clearance items or great deals this week?

Ukrop’s Deals and Coupon Match-ups March 29 – April 3

I was so excited when I looked at this week’s Ukrop’s ad.  I was really hoping for a good ad with some great deals with Easter next week.  I think I am most excited about getting free Breakstone sour cream and free Band-Aids on double coupon Wednesday.  I had just mentioned to Steve Friday night that I was hoping for a sour cream sale in the next week because I was down to only one unopened container in the stockpile refrigerator and one opened one in my kitchen refrigerator.  (Yes- I have two full size refrigerators and a deep freeze.)

There really are some good deals this week without coupons, but some great deals with coupons!  Feel free to check out an on-line version of the ad here.  In an effort to keep this post from being too long I am only listing the items that have coupons in the spreadsheet.  I do want to encourage you to check out the great meat specials they have this week along with the Spring produce on sale – like strawberries and asparagus. 

There is also two coupons in this week’s ad.  The first in on the front page and will give you and additional $0.30 per gallon towards your fuelperks! account when you spend $50 or more in one transaction.  (In order to qualify for this you have to spend $50 after sales and coupons and before tax.  This can only be redeemed once per household this week.)  The other coupon is found on page 4 for $2 off any 3 card purchase.  The cards must be $1.99 or higher to qualify.  I see it as buy 2 cards get 1 free.

I have had several posts where I have mentioned current multi-week deals.  Here are some of the highlights and the links to these posts for the coupons match-ups.

• Dole Canned Fruit are $1 each (thru 4/17)
• Ronzoni Smart Taste Pasta and Healthy Harvest Pasta are $1.25 each (new everyday price)
• Rice Select brand Rice is $2.59 (the $2 coupon in mambo sprouts expires Wednesday 3/31)
• No-yolk noodles are $1.69 (thru 4/3)
• International Delight Creamer pints are $1.99

Here are some guidelines for using coupons at Ukrop’s:

Ukrop’s will double manufacturer coupons up to $0.99 on Wednesdays only.

Ukrop’s will not double more than 5 like coupons per transaction.

Ukrop’s does accept internet printable (IP) coupons up to a face value of $2.  They do not accept IP coupons for a free item.  This includes buy 1 get 1 free.

 

Coupons that will double in Wednesday are in red.
