Stop & shop

Hey couponing buddies! I just had to share my latest triumph at Stop & Shop. This week, I walked out with a cart full of essentials, including some much-needed oral care products, for a fraction of the original price. The thrill of seeing those huge discounts on my receipt never gets old! So, how did I do it? It’s all about strategy! First, make sure you're signed up for the Stop & Shop loyalty program. This is your golden ticket to digital coupons and personalized offers. Every Sunday, I dive into their weekly flyer to spot upcoming sales. Then, I cross-reference these sales with manufacturer coupons I find online or in coupon inserts, like those from the Sunday paper or printable coupon sites. A game-changer for me has been stacking digital coupons from the Stop & Shop app with paper manufacturer coupons when allowed. Always check the fine print on both! For items like oral care products – toothpaste, toothbrushes, mouthwash – there are almost always great coupons available. Look for 'buy one get one free' offers combined with a coupon for even bigger savings. Don't forget to check cash-back apps like Ibotta or Fetch Rewards after your shopping trip; sometimes they have additional offers that can turn a small saving into a huge win. These apps can really boost your overall savings, so always scan your receipt! Beyond coupons, pay attention to 'unadvertised' sales or clearance sections. I've found amazing deals on health and beauty items just by walking through the aisles carefully. Often, these items are marked down because of seasonal changes or nearing expiration dates, but they're still perfectly good to use. Always scan your items at the self-checkout or watch the cashier closely to ensure all your discounts are applied correctly to your receipt. If something looks off, don't hesitate to politely ask for a price check. With a little planning and persistence, you too can transform your grocery budget and enjoy those incredible savings!
