NOTE: This cheese turns out to be $1 for a 1/2 lb. of cheese (the same price as Costco), however, I like having a variety of cheeses in single serve bags instead of in the large Costco bags. They also happen to have the Parmesan cheese as a part of this sale and it is very difficult to find shredded parmesan in single serve bags for $1 for a 1/2 lb. They have a new "authentic" Mexican cheese blend that comes with queso, asadero and manchego cheeses. Yum, yum. I LOVE authentic Mexican cheese (especially for quesadillas).
NOTE: After the above coupons and the $5 promotion wyb 5 items, the price for each item was:
KRAFT CHEESE: $.50-$1.00 for 8oz. of cheese (depending on your coupon)
KRAFT MARSHMALLOWS: $.49 cents for a bag of marshmallows
WHEAT THINS: FREE or $.50 cents (depending on your coupon)
NOTE: Safeway had their Baker's Chocolate on sale for $3 ea. Turns out the Baker's Chocolate is cheaper at WinCo Foods. The regular price for Baker's Chocolate at WinCo. Foods is $2.22 ea. (which is less than what I paid at Safeway with a coupon and their sale). I used a coupon at WinCo. and scored the Baker's Chocolate for $1.72 ea. instead of the $2.50 ea. at Safeway with a coupon and their sale price. Sheesh. Safeway is so expensive.
Sounds like Food Lion out here. Their prices are so high, but every so often they'll have a good promotion like the $5/5.
ReplyDeleteDoes WinCo accept coupons?
Yep, WinCo does accept coupons but doesn't double. No one doubles out here. It's a wasteland for couponers (except for the drugstores). LOL.
ReplyDeleteYeah! Winco receives some of the praise it deserves! Sarah W.
ReplyDeleteSarah, I totally agree (minus their produce and horrible customer service).
ReplyDeleteI would give my right arm for a Publix grocery store right about now. Excellent cart-to-door service, free groceries every week, and free cookies and balloons for your children everytime you come into the store. I (heart) Publix.
Sarah, do you have time to hang out this week or are you crazy busy? I would love to see you. Would you like to come over for lunch and playtime? I can set up a pack-n-play for your little one. Let me know. I miss you!
