... Read moreIt's always such a thrill to find those incredible Meijer deals each week, isn't it? Beyond the fantastic savings I shared on things like my favorite Crest toothpaste and those super handy slow cooker liners, I'm constantly on the lookout for other specific items that can make a difference in my daily life without breaking the bank. It's not just about the big advertised sales; sometimes the best finds are on those everyday necessities or fun occasional treats.
One thing I always check for at Meijer, especially after a long week, is Epsom salt. You know, for those relaxing baths to soothe tired muscles or even for foot soaks! I usually head straight to the health and beauty aisle, near the bath bombs and body washes. Meijer often carries popular brands like Dr. Teal's, which is my go-to for its various scents, but their store brand is usually a great value too, especially if you prefer unscented options. I always make sure to scan my mPerks for any digital coupons or special offers on bath salts. Sometimes they'll have a 'buy one, get one 50% off' or a direct dollar-off coupon, which makes stocking up even sweeter. It’s amazing how a simple, inexpensive soak can feel like a mini-spa treatment at home. When I see a good deal, I grab a couple of bags to keep on hand, so I'm always ready for some me-time.
And speaking of keeping on hand, another fun item I often look for, especially with kids or for upcoming holidays, are glow sticks! Meijer is fantastic for seasonal items, and you can usually find glow sticks in the party supply section or near the seasonal decorations, especially around Halloween, New Year's Eve, or summer holidays. They're not just for parties, though! I've used them for safety during evening walks, for camping trips to mark tents, and even just for a fun, low-light evening with the kids, creating a magical atmosphere. They come in all sorts of packs, from small individual sticks to large bulk tubes with connectors to make bracelets and necklaces. I always check the circular or the Meijer app to see if there are any seasonal sales on party supplies. Getting a big pack when they're on clearance after a holiday is the best way to save, and then you're all set for the next fun occasion without paying full price!
My biggest tip for shopping at Meijer, whether you're hunting for specific items like Epsom salt or glow sticks, or just grabbing your weekly groceries, is to always check your mPerks account and the weekly ad before you go. Combine those digital coupons with any in-ad specials, and you'll be amazed at how much you can save. It really adds up, and it's so satisfying to walk out knowing you got everything you needed at a fantastic price. Don't forget to check for those unexpected clearances too – sometimes you find the best deals tucked away. Happy saving!
