Jewel: plant milks & drinkable peroxide

Not Lisle, so check your local Jewel for clearances on plant-based milks – obviously oat milk is cheaper with Jewel deals & a $5.99 Goodwill SoyaJoy machine, but almonds aren’t cheap enough to use.  Finding these at such low prices meant Pita grabbed (and paid!!!) for them all the unsweetened/flavored ones she prefers.  Dates were well out (some in 2025), lately a Jewel novelty.

Have you ever heard of drinking hydrogen peroxide?!  I do not even want to Google it, but looks like it’s going bye-bye at Jewel.

Flavor Adventure ends 8/1/23

Been a nice ride so far on Jewel’s Flavor Adventure game.  Last day is 8/1/23, so keep that sushi (or whatever token you’ve chosen) dancing every day until then.  Last year I won the $10, $20, $30 and $40 cash prizes, but not the $50 one (Pita got it). This year I ran through all the lands and got two meat/seafood coupons before it crapped out.  Also got the never-ending deli coupon (which ended when a customer service person took down my number & first name to notify Flavor Adventure – boo!); Pita got one, so we’ll see how long we can ride it – got sushi yesterday :). Oh, and both of us got a free year of Fresh Pass, so bonuses throughout the year.

Remember, $1 chips = free little cans of Pringles, $1 frozen was giving me .25 frozen Snicker bars (tasty!) & $1 spices meant free gravy packets.  We have until the end of August to use them all, so let’s see what the future sales look like.  Unless they have $1 potato salad, in which case I’ll need another fridge.

Walmart CA gets digital qs – payback?

These days, you can clip and redeem digital coupons at your local grocery store, at major drug store chains, dollar stores, warehouse stores like BJ’s Wholesale Club, big-box stores like Target and even at many gas station convenience stores. So why are we still unable to use digital coupons at Walmart, the world’s largest retailer?

It’s an age-old question among couponers. And now Walmart has an answer.

Walmart’s Canadian division has partnered with Inmar Intelligence to launch a new digital coupon program, expected to debut this coming October. It’s a first for Walmart, and it’s coming first for our friends north of the border. Could it be a trial run, a soft launch, a sign of things to come for Walmart’s American shoppers? Walmart and Inmar aren’t saying right now. But the fact that any Walmart division is launching a digital coupon program after years of resisting it, is itself significant.  Here’s the full article, but I’m thinking it’s payback for the months of sending wildfire smoke down here – they used to be so considerate.

Walgreens shopping is for masochists

Why do I do this to myself?  Why!?  Since I had the $10 Walgreens Cash Rewards coupon valid today-only and there was a deal on clearance chocolate and Cheez-Its … well, there you go.  Wanted a register receipt, but woman told me it would be emailed to me.  Said I din’t want that, I want the register to print it.  She told me I should have asked before she sent it to emai and waved what looked like a cell phone at me!  Said I didn’t hear her offer me that option.  bitch.  And this was a store that did a huge business with me back in the day (no, not Lisle). OOP was $23.11 and I got back $10.21 in Rewards.  The Cheez-Its are BOGO, but ringing up less (8 were $7.16) while the Ghirardelli were a $1.99 clearance that still were part of the BOGO 40% off (10 for $14.30).
