Savings Tip:  Maximize your future visits by signing up online and registering your rewards cards at the stores.  Albertson's offers $5 off your order of $25 or more.  Refer your friends and receive up to 5 more $5 rewards!

Half the fun of couponing is the research that you have to do to get the best deals possible on your quest to bargain hunt.  Afterall the worst feeling for a couponer to feel is to have used all of her coupons on a previous transaction and miss out on a better deal.  So pace yourselves friends, most things go on sale within a 3 - 4 weeks and if you miss a great opportunity, rest assure that there will be another bargain you can reap your awards with.

Albertson's trip was my favorite so far this week! I had to use my coupon for free milk that was expiring that day and I scanned our weekly circular to see what specials were running and if I would get a great deal on some things that I needed to stock up on.
