Vons and Sprouts 9/25

I will be visiting these stores on Sunday...I have to use my $10 off catalina coupon by Sunday for Vons. I had purchased two itunes gift cards and was supposed to get a $10 off my next shopping trip from the catalina machine, but it didn't print! So I emailed them and they confirmed I should have received it and sent me a replacement that finally arrived this week. Just another reminder that it is good to stay on top of all the offers you should be receiving.

Sprouts has some good produce deals:
Haas avocados for 77 cents each.

Acorn Squash for $0.88 per lb (I love this time of year - you can bake these up with butter and brown sugar)

Bartlett Pears for $0.49 per lb

Gala Apples, Zucchini, and Broccoli each for $0.88 per pound

Strawberries for $2.50 each

Yellow onions for $0.49 per pound

French Bread for $1.19


Vons: For my vons trip, I am going to be stocking up on some soups and baking items that are on sale. They also have a mix and match sale this week; if you buy 8 or more items included in the sale, you get 50 cents off each item.

Philly Cream Cheese - B1G1, $1 off 2 coupon (printable coupon)
Campbells Condensed Soup - $1 each, $0.40 off 2 (9/11 SS) (doubles to $0.80 on the first coupon)
Campbells Select Harvest Soup - $1.79 each, included in the mix and match sale, $1/3 coupon (printable)
Dark Chocolate Tollhouse Morsels - $3.49 each, included in the mix and match sale, $1/1 (8/21 SS)
Pillsbury Ready-to-Bake Cookies - $2.49 each, included in the mix and match sale, $0.75/2 (9/11 General Mills flyer, doubles to $1)

There are obviously a couple other items I will be picking up for meals like some OreIda Steam and Mash frozen potatoes (also included in the mix and match sale), Mission Tortilla Chips (in the mix and match sale), and Knorr Homestyle Stock (currently priced at $3.49, included in the sale, plus there is a $2 off coupon - this is cheaper than Walmart this week). Also milk, bread, eggs...the normal stuff. Didn't notice if there were any big sales on these items this week - sometimes CVS or Target has good deals on milk, so check and compare the ads on Sunday. I think I have Vons worked out so that I will be saving about 78% this week! We will see if it pans out...

REMINDER: the Farmer's Markets are opening this week! La Quinta's Farmer's Market is on Sunday from 8-12 in Old Town. Always nice to buy local if you can.

Thanks for looking and Happy Shopping!
