Birdseye vegetables free with doubled coupon at Giant

Giant advertised Birdseye vegetables for 10 for $10 after bonus card savings, so I found my $.50 off Birdseye vegetables coupons in the 10-18 Smart Source insert and combined the coupons with the sale price for free veggies.

I picked up the coupons for hagen daaz on a refrigerator case in a convenience this summer.

WHAT I WANT YOU TO KNOW SO YOU CAN DO THIS TOO

About once a month, the Giant ad contains 4 "double dollar" coupons. I usually pick up a few extra copies of the newspaper for that day.

I found the progresso coupons at two websites -- coupons.com and pillsbury.com. (looks like you have to register to print coupons here. Do not give out your personal email. Set up a gmail or yahoo account for this) on the pillsbury site, click the coupon button at the top of the page. You can usually print two coupons from each computer.

NOTES

This transaction earned me 500 gas points, 100 for every 4 cans of Old El Paso refried beans and Progresso soup. This represents a savings of $.50 per each gallon of gas purchased. My son was able to fill his pickup truck with premium grade gas for $1.87 per gallon!

i was able to print two coupons for progresso from each site from my laptop by using the back arrow on my computer. i have just printed two more coupons from each site using my desktop computer. while i was at these sites, i printed the $1 coupon for welch's grape juice and the $.60 off two old el paso items.

NOTES

This transaction earned me 300 in gas points. I didn't know it until my son filled up his car, came home and told me about the incredible deal he got on gas. "Let everyone know!" he said. I think he gets $.10 per gallon of gas by using the Giant bonus card. This purchase caused my purchase total to reach a $100 threshold for another $.10 per gallon savings. And, the 300 points from purchasing the soup - 100 points for each 4 cans - earned a $.30 per gallon savings. So, my son filled up his car with premium gasoline for under $2 per gallon.
