the only ones that double are albertsons, on occasion, not every week, sometimes on sunday, and sometimes in the tuesday flyer..they will include coupons that will "match your manufacture coupons up to and including $1.00" we got none last sunday, and doesn't look like any coming this sunday.....just have to watch the thread for NW albies to see.
good lukc, pm me anytime with questions, or if I can help with anything

I'm in Oregon (Portland Metro). I have been terrorizing the local Rite Aids, Safeways, and Albertsons for the past few months. What I have found is:

Safeway weekly AD has "coupon" to use with 4 MFG coupons and they will double up to $.50 for a total of $2.00.

Have not found this recently but, when I was doing this years ago (about 5), Safeway would occasionally put in the Sunday paper what they called "triples" this is actually a true double. These "triples" would increase the $.50 to $1.00 for anywhere from 4 to 10 MFG coupons.

Albertsons will put 3 doubles in their weekly ads on occasion. These will double a MFG coupon up to $1.00 for a total of $3.00.

Albertsons will also put inserts in the Sunday paper with 3 doubles good for 3 days (Sunday to Tuesday). These have been fairly consistant. I get my Tuesday paper with the grocery store ads and then wait until Sunday for the doubles.

Both Albertsons and Safeway have put $10 off $50 coupons in the Sunday paper. Sometimes in the Tuesday food section. Safeway does the $10 off $50 more than Albertsons.

A few tips/tricks. I check the Tuesday Food Day section for extra coupons (store and MFG).

I also check the first section of the Sunday paper. Safeway and Albertsons like to hide doubles and $10 off $50 coupons there.

I get the Oregonian newspaper and the Sunday Statesman Journal (Salem). Couldn't hurt to check the Seattle Times and other local papers (I'd check them for at least 4 - 6 weeks).

Good luck!!
