price cutter shopping

Here is my Price Cutter shopping trip from earlier today. I was hoping to get a chance to walk the aisles a little bit to see if I could spot any unadvertised deals, but it just didn’t work out that way. I basically had just enough time to dash around & pick up a few things and that was about it. It’s been one of those kinda crazy non-stop days, in fact, this day has just blazed by! LOL Anyway, I did notice a nice deal on Rice Select with a high value coupon that recently came available, so I noted that below. My Price Cutter was out of several items I was looking for, but fortunately, they do offer rain-checks. Here is what I picked up today:

  • 2 packages of Fresh Pork – $3.92 & $3.61 and each one was around 2 pounds. Each Package was marked down $1.50 each, plus I used 2 $1/1 Fresh Pork coupons (previously available)
  • 4 Kraft Block Cheese 8 oz – BOGO @ $2.99, so $1.50 each, Used 2 $1/2 Kraft Block Cheese coupons
  • 2 Farmland Bacon 16 oz – BOGO @ $6.25 (instead of $6.39 in the ad), Used $1/2 Farmland Bacon coupon from the 8/25 SmartSource insert
  • 2 Velveeta Cheesy Skillets – BOGO @ $2.89, Used 2 $0.50/1 Velveeta Skillets coupons from here (doubled)
  • Stonyfield Greek Yogurt 5.3 oz – $2.79, Used Free Stonyfield Yogurt home mailer coupon
  • Final Cost $13.26

Several of the 32 oz Rice Select products are on sale at Price Cutter this week through 10/1 for $4.29. Rice Select has really awesome rice in my opinion, but it is usually on the super pricey side, so it was nice to see a decent deal like this one!

Rice Select rice products, various 32 oz – $4.29
Use $2/1 Rice Select coupon from here
Final Cost $2.29

Here is my latest Price Cutter shopping trip. I stopped in today to check and see if they had the Kraft coupons in-store that were shown in the online ad version and they were! It was hard to read what the coupons were online, so I have listed them below for easy reference. The coupons were in with this week’s ad. They are all manufacturer’s coupons and they are all good through May 31st. Hopefully Price Cutter will be running a sale on Kraft products before the end of the month. I was in a bit of a hurry, but while I was there I did notice a nice deal on Kraft Cheese. Kraft cheese slices, blocks and shredded cheese were priced at $2.50, so $1.50 after the in-ad coupon. I picked up a couple packages of the sliced cheese myself along with a few other items:

price cutter shopping trip

So, on my latest Price Cutter shopping trip I did what I usually do. I headed to Price Cutter’s meat department to see what markdowns they had. I have been pretty lucky finding markdowns. I usually go shopping in the mornings so that may have something to do with it. And my store generally discounts items in one of two ways. In the meat department, they sometimes put coupons on the items and when you checkout the cashier peels the coupons off and the discount comes off at the register. Other times, they will have “Manager Specials” where they have discounted certain cuts of meat for the day. These are limited and when they are gone, they are gone. Today, I found manager specials and coupons on quite a few items, but the stand out deal for me were on a couple cuts on pork, only $0.99 per pound. Those are the kinds of deals I like! 🙂 Anyway, onto my trip.

  • Pork Steak $0.99 lb – $1.61 (“Manager Special”)
  • Pork Country Style Ribs $0.99 lb – $2.32 (another “Manager Special”, I love to put these in the crockpot on low, they turn out so tender that way!)
  • 2 Ortega Taco Seasoning – $0.69 each, Used $0.50/2 Ortega coupon from the 1/13 SmartSource insert (doubled)
  • 2 Hiland Cottage Cheese 24 oz – $2.19 each, Used 2 $0.50/1 Hiland Cottage Cheese coupons from here (doubled)
  • 2 Old Orchard 100% Juice Cranberry Pomegranate – $2.00, Used $1/2 Old Orchard Juice coupon from here and Price Cutter coupon (took $0.51 off each bottle)
  • 6 Yoplait Yogurt Cups $0.39 each – Used $0.40/6 Yopalit coupon from here (doubled)
  • Smart Balance Butter 7.5 oz – $1.79, Used $1.25/1 Smart Balance coupon
  • Final Cost $11.27

My Price Cutter Shopping Trips (Great markdowns!)

So, I stopped by Price Cutter a couple times this week to pick up a few deals and check for markdowns. I was lucky enough to find a couple meat markdown items both trips, so that was nice! People have asked me when the best time to find markdowns would be. I have asked the store before and they in the past they’ve said there are no set times, so I guess it’s pretty much hit or miss. I seem to find markdowns during the week, not on weekends usually. Anyway, I usually don’t stop in at Price Cutter this often, but both times I was already going right by the store, so they worked in well with my trips.

Transaction #1:

  • 2 Hiland Cottage Cheese (24 oz.) – $2.29 ea., Used 2 $0.50/1 Hiland Cottage Cheese coupon (doubled)

My Price Cutter Shopping Trip Earlier this week

Here’s my Price Cutter Shopping Trip from the beginning of this week. Two of my favorite things about shopping at Price Cutter are their markdowns in their meat department and their good sales on Hiland Dairy products, which we buy all the time. Also, I started shopping at the Price Cutter in Joplin again this summer and I have to say my trips have gone much better than they did in the past. Unlike previous trips, prices have all been ringing up correctly and I haven’t had any issues with coupon usage at all which is great. I am very glad this location has improved, so if you haven’t given them a try in awhile, you may want to now. I’m just happy they have stepped up their customer service because we really need all the grocery shopping options we can get in Joplin! I’m really hoping we get a few more grocery shopping options in the near future of the next few years, that is something we SO need. I would love to see a Hy-Vee store here, hopefully one will someday. And Dillons, sighhh, what can I say about Dillons. I have contacted them numerous times and I continue to get the same response, they will be coming back, just no news on when and where just yet. Believe me, as soon as I hear ANYTHING concrete, I will be shouting the news from the rooftops. In my opinion, any Dillons news is very, very long overdue. Anyway, here’s the details from my Price Cutter shopping trip from the beginning on this week:

  • 1 Hiland Dip & 1 Hiland Sour Cream (16 oz.) – $1.49 ea., Used $0.50/2 6/10 SS insert SS insert (doubled)
  • 2 Hiland Orange Juice (half gallon) – $1.49 ea., Used $0.50/2 Hiland coupon (doubled)

  • 2 Hiland Family Pak Ice Cream (56 oz.) – $1.50 ea., Used $0.45/1 previously available (doubled)
  • 2 packages of Smart Chicken Whole, Cut Up, Mamger’s Special $0.99 lb., $3.25 & $3.63 (Great price for Smart Chicken!)
  • Black Angus Top Sirloin, about 1 lb., Marked down to $2.74
