Before sales or coupons this would have cost $35.08
I was able to get it all for $7.11 plus $1.09 tax = $8.20
I am often asked if I buy things with coupons that I do not really need? The answer to that is yes…. here is a perfect example.
Now I did not need to buy the soda….it is not something my family buys on a normal basis. BUT it was such a great price and when I bought it I also got FREE ground beef…..which is what I really wanted. So yes I bought soda that I do not need…in order to get the FREE beef that my family did need. I told you about this deal at my local Albertsons here.
Here is how the deal worked
- Buy 6 bottles of soda $1.99 each on sale for only .87 each when buy in sets of 3
- 6 bottles of soda cost $5.22 plus tax
- Used 2 coupon for $1.00 off 3 bottles
- Final price $3.22 plus tax for 6 bottles of soda
- BUT the deal got even better…
- for every 2 bottles of sodaI bought I got $1.00 in free grilling meat
I also bought 3 avacados for .49 cents each.

Thats a great deal, on Fridays we have pizza and the kids drink pop….. so nothing but the avicados would go to waste here…….. Its good to have things to donate to your local food pantry though.
for Albetsons I don’t think it matters what area you live in if you are a regular I think you will get to know the workers and they all seam pretty good here too.
Where did you get the coupon for $1 off 3 bottles of soda and $1 in free meat for every 2 bottles of soda?
Jennifer the Caldwell stadium store has them at the cashiers or ask ROB the manager for them…..Jared is off for a week his wife is having a baby today.
I bought 12 2 liters of diet coke and received no free meat, where do you get the $1 off meat coupon???
Julie…my local store manager had them and was passing them out while supplies last of the next two days
Did you use 2 different coupons? One for the soda and one for the meat?
Thank you.
Linda yes there was 2 different coupons…both handed out by the store manager
I wish we had albertsons here again, I remember I would go in around the time the lady was cleaning up the meat section, and all the ground beef she would mark down, for me to .79 a pound!!
Ok- so I just called and talked to the manager(I was determined to figure out my mistake!). He was soooo nice! He indicated that the cashier should have given it to me- and that they will have it waiting for me on my next visit. I am so impressed with the service out there!
Sarah- Please tell me what I did wrong! I went to the Caldwell Albertsons and bought 6 bottles of Coke product and didn’t get the catalinas for the meat! I was so disappointed because I also did not need the soda! I will end up giving it away- which is fine, but I still don’t have the meat!
As an aside- you are absolutely right about the staff at the Caldwell Albertsons- they were wonderfully nice! And I did get a great deal on what I bought- 6 liters of pop, 4 packages of Pillsbury cookie dough (there was a $1.50/2 blinkie in the refridgerated section), Cuties and 2 cans of soup for $10.
