The Jewel ad starting the 9th is showing The Return of the Buy 10 get $5 off Instantly.  I have an aversion to this type of “discount” (see prior posts for my philosophy), but this one’s a killer.  In almost a exact repeat of the last dealio, the HC fresh mixers are once again going to be $1.99 after discount.  Here’s the killer part:  Check your Avenue cards (read prior posts about “other” cards), people; it’s showing up there as a limit 8, in varying amounts off ($1, 1.25, and my personal fav, $2).  So what does this mean, grasshopper?  Lots and lots of overage towards other stuff you might actually be forced to pay for otherwise.  i know, i know, it gets to me, too. Personally, I’d check out the clearance meat section – they’ve certainly been giving Dominick’s a run for their money (pssst, the Stockman & Dakota bottom roasts are BOGO).  If you used up all your $1 insert coupons from 10/24 S, Coupons by Dede (right sidebar) had about 1500 left with an .08 “handling charge” for each.   I’m looking to buy at least 50 from her, since I’ve got the mixers through the 13th on a couple of cards with a few more cards resetting at midnight.  Since these are products are shelf-stable, I won’t even have to play freezer tetris.  And most important?  The PITA loves them.  IF YOU HAVEN’T YET ORDERED YOUR COUPONS, DON’T WORRY.  BUY THE ITEMS AND RETURN WITHIN THE NEXT 60 DAYS WITH YOUR COUPONS TO GET YOUR CASH.  JEWEL ROCKS! Aahhh!  Almost forgot:  Do not use up the maximum limit showing on your Avenue card, usually 6 or 8.  If you do, it disappears forever.  Scary, huh?  Instead, buy one less and then wait 24 hours before buying more.  Example:  HC Fresh Mixers are $2.00, limit 8; buy 7 at one time and get the hell out of Dodge (with that card, anyway) for the next 24 hours.  Next day, you’ve got all 8 still showing.  it’s a miracle!

Another thing to note is that Pillsbury brownie mixes, cookie mixes and frostings tie in with the 11/7 rp for either .40 off frosting/brownie or .50 on cookie mixes.  So either .09 for brownies or .49 or .59 for the cookies and frosting.  For those of you with the Dominick’s Thanksgiving booklets, there are coupons for:  $1/1 Pam spray; $1/1 Hefty one zips or foam plates and probably other stuff, but I just can’t look any more.
