Glad I found this place, are there others?

[TexasVicsDeals]

Hello all! Gosh, I have been searching HIGH and LOW for any forums/ boards that have Albie's info that is:
A.) Current (lots of ollllllld info out there!)
B.) Pertains to Albertsons LLC (DFW).
I have been googling like crazy but have only found this site. Are there any others? Just wanting to stay on top of the news for Albie's..

I reside in the Saginaw area and shop the Saginaw, Lake Worth, and Golden Triangle Albertsons stores. EXGF was an avid couponer a few years back and I am getting back into the swing of it myself. Not sure if I will ever get back into it where we had to convert a bedroom into our Stock Pile - Command room, but it would be nice!!!!:thanks7:

I think there's another forum AFC but I don't go there much. I suggest googling blogs.

[TexasVicsDeals]

Thanks! I did google some Blogs but I didn't get much information there either. I am very surprised at the little information that I have found. But I guess since the economy is bad lots of folks have lost their internet access when it came time to cutting some bills out.
It has been since before Albertsons split their stores up (2007?) that I have done this. Just trying to get back into the swing since Albies and Walmart are about my only choices (I don't like driving too far - LOL)

While I appreciate the offer I am no where near as smart as you all. I remember a lot of it but don't have the know how of how it all works now.

What happened to the Mod here?

There are a couple of blogs that usually have Albies matchups.

Mod edit: blog links can be posted to give credit when deals and matchups from blogs are quoted. If you see great deals bloggers are posting about, please post them here and include a link to give credit to the blogger.



I think the reason the this forum is not as active is b/c generally Albertsons doesn't have many deals. Compared to Kroger & Tom Thumb Albertsons is lacking in coupon deals. Also, a lot of the stores are closing.

Although, I was looking at the new ad and I think there's a great deal on turkey if you combine the $5/50, $5 Turkey q, & Cowboys 10% off.

I was wondering last week if you could combine the discounts (Cowboys 10 + $5 off coupon). Have you tried it before and it worked? Thanks!

I haven't tried the 5/50 & 10% but I'm going to see if it works this Sunday. I've tried the 5/50 before q's & it worked. I have also tried 10% before qs & it worked.

[TexasVicsDeals]

When I went this past Sunday they took the 10% off AFTER all Q's when I had my Jersey on. I had taken advantage of the P&G Catalina as well so it should work.

Thanks. I will try too. I decided not to go last Sunday & I am kind of glad. $5/50 is much better than $10/100 for me right now.

I know this is not in the right place but Carnival Food Stores (used to be owned by Minyards now Fiesta Foods) on 28th & Main (Fort Worth), mail out a $10 off w/purch of $25 Q quite often and it has no restrictions whatsoever. At times they do it once a week. My mother gives me the Q when it comes in... Not to mention they have the cheapest, crazy cheap, and best quality produce hands down. All my friends I take over there are amazed and buy all their produce from them now.

The Albies 5 off 50 Q is AFTER all Q's and discounts have been applied....or so it says in the fine print...

I don't have any carnival by me but I do go to Fiesta and usually they have great prices on meat & produce. They are also my fave place to go look for qs b/c they usually have rare q's & hispanic food qs.

As for the Albies it does say that but I have been able to use it before MQs.

[TexasVicsDeals]

Yep. Fiesta and Carnival are both at the same intersection here in North Fort Worth (28th and North Main) and you are right. I get lots of Q's from those stores. Mainly because most Latino's don't coupon. I myself am a Latino male and am amazed that others do not.

I buy 75% of my meat and 100% of my produce from both of them. It is by far more fresh (meat/ produce) and less expensive than any other store. All my Caucasian friends that I take over there cannot believe the prices and the quality of them both.

But of course the downside is that you dare not buy anything else because the prices are soooo dang high!

[nessy]

BTW the trick to getting the 10% before coupons is to go to self-checkout tell 'em to give you the discount then scan coupons. HTH

[TexasVicsDeals]

The Albies in Saginaw no longer has true Self Check Out (removed a few months ago)...they have the Assisted Check Out lanes that don't have a touchscreen. It is like a Fast Lane with a Cashier and a tiny place to write a check at...

[Isis123]

Albertson's weekly ads are just a mumble jumble as far as I am concerned. And their cashiers are not well trained. I just get too upset when I do go there.
