Albertville's Coborns Has Deals for the Penny Pinchers

Weekly Tip:  Mail Call!

If you like to save money like I do, sometimes it’s as easy as checking your mailbox!  There are a few stores in our area that send out money-saving coupons from time to time, and they show up right in your mail.  Who knew it would be as easy as walking down to your mailbox to get some great savings? 

Cub Foods typically sends out a coupon booklet about once a month, in the flyer sent to your home and there is typically a $5 off of a $50 purchase on the front.  Make sure to clip this coupon!  If you pick up the coupon booklet in stores that extra money saving coupon will not be there. 

 Coborns also does a Penny Pincher booklet from time to time.  They typically send these out every other month or so.  There are some awesome deals in this booklet and I always take full advantage when they have these special deals.  And for an added bonus you can stack a coupon and a manufacturer’s coupon to maximize your savings.

I moved to Albertville less than a year ago and I got lots of great coupons in my mailbox when I first moved here.  I also got one from Coborns for $5 off of my next $5 purchase, so I finally used that coupon this week.  Check out my shopping trip below to see how I used it to my advantage. 

Next time you get one of these booklets in the mail, don’t toss it in the recycle bin.  Use it to your advantage.  Especially when they have products on sale that your family uses everyday. 

Happy Shopping!

I also used a $5 off a $50 purchase from Coborns which I received in my mailbox when I first moved to Albertville.  My transaction had to be over $50 before coupons to use it, so I gave that coupon to the cashier first to maximize my "$avings."
