It's a challenge when you live in the Land of No Doubles (LND) but here's a way you can double up.

Here are some Double Coupons using printable coupons and the apps at WinCo in Richland (price varies from store to store but should be close to this).

Scrubbing Bubbles for $.87

I picked up Scrubbing Bubbles for only $.87.  I printed out two $1/1 coupons from Coupons.com and purchased two of them from Walmart for $2.87 reducing them to $1.87 each. Then I also claimed them on Shopmium for an additional $2 rebate, making them $.87 each.

Meals on a Budget

When buying meat really pay close attention to those "special" deals.  Like those Albertson's B1G1 deals.  If you look at the price per pound it's sometimes $7-$9 a pound and when you have a B1G1 that still isn't a great deal. I look for prices that work out to $2-$3 a pound. That being said I picked up some seasoned pork chops that were B1G2 so I ended up with three packs for about $11, added green beans and a salad to create a family meal for around $15.

Our Safeway is great for their discount meat section were I will find steaks for 30% off so I can normally pick up a steak or two for around $3.  Sometimes I may only get one or two but I freeze them until I have enough steaks for the whole family.
