First, a little background information for working your deals at Acme-
Acme has *the best* coupon doubling policy in my area. While most NJ stores will double the value of a coupon up to $1 (a $0.75 cent coupon would max out at $1), Acme will double the value of any coupons under $1. So if you have a $0.99 cent coupon it will be doubled to $1.98 off. This extra savings can make all the difference.

When Acme has items on quantity sale (such as 2 for $4), you do not need to buy that quantity to get the sale price! Only if they specifiy “MUST buy two”, which is rare!

Ok, now a little printable coupon information-When you print online coupons you may need to install some software. It is mandatory, but very quick. Also, there is usually a print limit of two coupons to be printed per computer. When you print the coupon, hit the back button a few times for the coupon to print again. You can try this as many times as you like, but usually the software will recognize the print limit and you only get two coupons per computer.

Here we go-
Nothing is knocking my socks off this week; I think I’m gonna just do the Superfresh deal.

No coupon here, but it is Acme’s lowest price of the year on boneless, skinless chicken breast- $1.69 lb. for packages of 3 lbs. or more. It will save you $ to get a big pack on sale like this and divide it into freezer bags of 1lb. portions and freeze.

Progresso Classic Soup is on sale $1 each, use the printable coupon here to save $1 off 3- makes each can $0.67. Also, in this weekend’s paper was a save $0.50 off two coupon, that would make two cans $0.50 each!

Stoneyfield Farm Organic yogurt is on sale 3 for $2 use the coupon here to get 3 cups for $1.

Ball Park hot dogs are buy one get one free this week. There is a $1 off two coupon in this Sunday’s paper that you can use to get two packs of hot dogs for $2.24 each. (YES- you can use a “buy two” coupon with a store’s buy one get one promotion, because you ARE buying two. This deal is not a huge savings, but if you use this tip for other buy one get one free promos you can really save!)

Beech-Nut Stage 2 baby food is on sale for $0.50 each. This week’s paper has a $1.50 off any 8 jars coupon, making 8 jars $0.31 cents each. (To get more Beech-Nut coupons and a free sample, call 1-800-523-6633 and ask for the Beech-Nut parent pack.)

Hillshire Farm Kielbasa or Smoked Sausage is buy one get one free. Use the $1 off two coupon from a recent insert to get two packages for $1.99 each.

Hanover frozen vegetables are on sale 2 for $4. In this Sunday’s paper are coupons for $1 off two Gold Line package frozen vegetables and $1 off two Silver Line package frozen vegetables. Use a coupon and get two bags of vegetables for $1.50 each.

Hostess 100 Calorie Cakes are $3, use the $0.75 printable here to get them for $1.50. The chocolate variety is really good and only one point for the whole pack!

Muir Glen organic tomatoes are about $1.29 at my store for the big can. There is a $0.75 cent coupon in Sunday’s inserts that will double to make a can free. There are also $1 off printables available here.

If you are having a little Halloween party, there is a special $3 off coupon on the back page of this week's circular that is valid when you buy one Tombstone Pizza (on sale for $3.66 this week), two cases of Pepsi cans or 6 pack bottles, and 2 bags of Doritos. The total price would be $15.66 after coupon. Not a super deal, but definitely cheaper than ordering pizza!

Love, Bay
