VG’s SHOPPING TIPS
VG’s offers a $0.05 reusable bag credit per bag you bring. You may have to remind your cashier, however, as the credit is not automatic.
You’ll find printable Spartan coupons at the Turn to Spartan website. You’ll need to register first. Coupons are limited to 1 per family and will NOT double, but they could stretch your savings even further.
Save your receipts – as part of VG’s Community Share Program, they can benefit non-profit groups in Michigan. You don’t need to sign up; simply find a group collecting receipts and turn yours in to them. Trinity Lutheran Church in Utica (45160 Van Dyke at Hall Rd) collects VG’s receipts to purchase socks for the homeless. You can leave your receipts at the front desk there if you can’t find another participating group.
Shopping with Kids? Stop by the customer service desk and sign them up for the Zoo Crew Kids’ Club. They’ll receive special treats, including a cookie from the bakery when they visit!

Heather says
Thanks Jolyn-I’m so excited to have this a day early!
Jolyn says
You’re welcome!
jade says
you need to add the mckormick already divided out, ready to make spice packets are $1.99 making them free after coupon.
Jennifer says
Do these sales usually last more than a week at vg’s like the yogurt etc
Jolyn says
No, they don’t. But reg price on Danimals Smoothies is $2.59 and Dan-o-nino was $2.19. So still not bad.
Amanda Kimosh says
Any word on when the McCormick catalina will be in play? I am withholding my coupons until then…
Diana says
The Frigo coupon is printing at 40 cents not $1. Bummer!
Dawn D says
If I purchased 3 danimals and 3 dan 0 nino and used 6 coupons 3 for the danimals and 3 for the danonino would they all double?
A says
Yes they usually just refuse more than 3 like coupons. But if they don’t pay attention they do double.
Marianna Ruffino says
I had a cashier refuse to sell me something on a SEPARATE order because I used 3 coupons. Then she followed me to another register where she announced to me and the other customers behind me that next time I wouldn’t be able to use my coupons…gee thanks great customer service!!
A says
That is insane I routinely have 4 coupons and don’t want that special trip I will either do a another order or go load up and come back in. Never had them follow me but they always inspect for that do not double and there have been a couple I didn’t even notice said that.
Marianna Ruffino says
Usually, I have no problems but this cashier decided to make it her mission to be rude. I guess that some of these cashers believe they are doing the store a great favor. What happened to customer service? Is it replaced by customer dis-service?
Tina says
you must of been at the Brighton Vg’s they are not so nice there! I agree with you. I would never try to rip them off they double i buy whats on sale and thats it! They cant it personal I like Kroger better No hassles there
Jolyn says
Yes!
Gail says
Marianna, which VG’s were you at? I love Sterling Heights except for one person I won’t name who I avoid like the plague.
Marianna Ruffino says
It is the Shelby Township store. There was also a lady at the front desk who was not very nice either. I went to return a jar of peanut butter that didn’t taste right a couple of weeks ago. It was about $7 and I had the receipt. I was told that she wasn’t going to return my money just because I didn’t like the taste of the peanut butter. After explaining several times that it just didn’t taste right, she rolled her eyes and finally gave me my money back. This is unacceptable behavior. I’ve tried to contact VG’s through the corporate web site and it just doesn’t go through. Kind of makes me wonder if they not listening to the customers and want to lure some people back with double coupons.
Jenny says
On behalf of my fellow associates I APOLOGIZE like crazy! The behavior of both is completely unacceptable and it is NOT normal for most VG’s stores. If the store director where you shop does not fix the problem, the best way is to contact the support center in Fenton.
Beth says
I shop at the Silver Lake store in Fenton, and they always bend over backwards to help the customer. The service has always been excellent and I love shopping there.
kathy says
Just wanted to add, Brighton has incredible service! My husband isn’t a big shopper and after a visit to VG’s Brighton he said “why don’t we always shop here?” and I returned an entire crate of cuties that were bad with no problem
Jolyn says
Thanks, Jenny!
Jane says
The Earthbound Farms Organic Variety Salads coupon does not double, it says in fine print at the bottom do not double and the registers catch it so you can only get $1 off.
Alisa says
The Post Honey Bunches of Oats Raisen Melody was not included in the sale at the Shelby VGs 🙁
The Farmhouse Hidden Valley dressing IS included in the sale 🙂
Jolyn says
Thank you!
glenna says
I cannot get coupon for Nabisco facebook – it states
April Coupon is over. Any tricks?
Jolyn says
No, unfortunately. It’s gone for the month, then.
Mary says
Boo-ooo! Will I ever taste some free raisen deliciousness?!
Tabitha says
I went to Waterford VG’s. Nothing much to add to the above except that Colgate toothbrushs are still on sale, but they end up costing .50 with the coupon we used last week. There were only a few of the danonino yogurt left unless they have some in the back. I skipped the danimals myself and there was quite a bit of that and the Activia 4-pk (the Danactive coupon works for this) There was no Post pebbles treat bars and ofcoarse no Post Honey Bunches of Oats/raisions like reported above. Looked everywhere for the zone perfect bar and could never find any. Hope this helps
Shannon says
The zone perfect bars are located in between the medicine & toothpastes.
Cari says
Went to Vg’s today. The cashiers there are just awful. They always make you feel like a criminal for using coupons like I’m taking the money directly from their paycheck.
I grabbed a few $1.00 off Kraft Shredded Cheese w/Philly coupons from Kroger(tear off pad right by the cheese). The don’t say Do not double on them anywhere, but I got home took a look at my receipt and none of them doubled. Just an FYI if you have these coupons.
Jolyn says
Do you know what the bar code on those coupons begins with? If it starts with a 9, they won’t double regardless of what the coupon says.
Jessica says
I have the same coupons from Kroger, they do start with a “9”.
Marianna Ruffino says
Are they related to the cashiers at the Shelby Township store?
Diana says
Brighton location – Great Grains not included in Post sale – Balance Bars are $1.25 not $1. Pebbles treats – no signs that they were on sale and I couldn’t find it in their ad either. Have to mention they are usually pretty friendly (& coupon friendly) there but, as stated above, they will double 3 identical coupons PER DAY – so why try 2 transactions ?? Per day means per day. I’m just thrilled they double up to $1 – spent $14 saved $42 this trip !!
jen says
FYI: I had them price check the Pebbles treats because there weren’t signs and they did ring up 1.99!
Diana says
Awesome – thanks – wish more stores had price scanners in their aisles !
Tracie says
MIO Liquid Water Enhancer on sale for $3.49
-$1.00 off coupon SS 3-27
$1.49 after coupon
marcia streefkerk says
Land O lakes butter on sale 3/$4. I think there’s a printable somewhere out there buy 2 save $1.
Sarah says
$1/2 Stride gum coupon in weekend insert makes them $.19 ea. Coupons.com also has a $1/2 5-gum coupon making them $0.59/ea.
Laurie says
Crest toothpaste is on sale for 2.47. If you have any of the 1.00 off of 1 left then it is only 47 cents a tube! I bought 3 of them. Also, Watch the Meuller’s coupon because it didn’t double when i used it and she had to maually double it. (Fenton location) Plus with my YES reward e-mail deals I got a free 500 count of Hammermill copy paper and a free gallon of spartan water. Oh, and oil of olay body wash is on sale 3/$7. They have the $2.00 off one coupon in today’s P & G book which makes it $1.50. But I actually found some clearance Oil of Olay Body Wash by the register and got it for 29 cents a piece!
Shannon says
I was at the Sterling hts location today and couldn’t find the saute’s for two. There wasn’t even a place for them next to the stouffer’s family meals. But, they had a sign on the freezer with a pic of them…so confusing. I also noticed a sign for betty crocker fruit snacks/roll ups. It said 4/$10 with an instant $4 off = $6. Can we use the .50 off 2 coupons on these to make it 4/$4? Thanks =]
Jolyn says
Yes, you can use coupons on the fruit snack deal.
Jen says
Is the Muellers Pasta coupon in the 3/27 SS? I can’t find it in mine.
coupon guy says
Was in the Davison VG’s yesterday – the “Great Grains” cereal is not included in the sale and was price around $4.39/box.
Esther a homeschool momma in Mid-Michigan says
The Minute Maid Orange Juice coupon from FB is no longer available 🙁
A says
FYI Target has coupons on an endcap for Newton Thins $1/1 so they would be .88, also there is a $1/2 Cascade coupon makes it $2.99 still not in love with that price 😉 and a $1/1 Downy which may be from a pampers booklet but large size for $3 not bad.
Chris says
The Scott’s EZ seed is on sale for $9.99. Go to http://pages.exacttarget.com/ez_seed_coupon/ makes it $4.99. We just have to wait for the warm weather.
A says
Anyone know if Charmin sensitive toliet paper is included? I don’t even remember if they carry it but I have 2 $1 off 1 coupons I would like to use.
Kris says
On the “Yes Card” website under the “Yes Offers” tab I have 2 targeted coupons one for Spartan mini garlic bread for $.49 and the other for Spartan low soduin lunch meat 16oz – FREE.
Jolyn says
Why am I not getting that? Under the Yes offers tab, this is all I get:
yes Email Item of the Week: Spartan Potato Chips (11oz), Tortilla Chips (12-130z) or Corn Chips (14oz) for $1.47
I’d love some garlic bread, though! I’m logged in – am I looking in the wrong spot?
https://yes.spartanstores.com/offers
Stacey says
Do you get the Sunday YES emails? My “free” offers show up there. Mine for this week were for a ream of copy paper along with the mini garlic bread and the lunchmeat. But good luck finding the items in stock! They have always been sold out. This week, the only item I found in stock was the lunchmeat.
Jolyn says
I’ve received emails, but they haven’t included any free items at all. Others were commenting on the Facebook page, too. And yesterday I earned 50 points, but didn’t get the double bonus points they used to give. Maybe I don’t spend enough?
kathy says
I haven’t received any for about a month and then I received the free lunch meat this week…perhaps you’ll get one next week
Natalie says
I logged onto my Yes Rewards account, clicked Yes Rewards and I copied and pasted what that page says:
Valid 4/3 – 4/9/2011
yes Email Rewards Get Spartan Mini Loaf Garlic Bread for only $.49
Limit 1
1 for 49¢
Valid 4/3 – 4/9/2011
yes Email Rewards FREE Spartan Gallon Water
Limit 1
FREE
So if anyone is an email rewards customer and hasn’t seen or received this offer. I would just try it and see if the register takes off the amount. If it doesn’t just simply take the item off your order. Its worth a try for some free water and cheap garlic bread.
Cathy says
I received the same email as Jolyn: Spartan Tortilla chips for $1.47 and no freebies. Went to the website and clicked on Yes rewards and the Tortilla chips was the only thing listed for me. Maybe it depends on the area .
Chris says
Each week when you recieve your weekly email you may get a special email reward item or items. The item WILL be different with each person. You may get free items and you may get special priced items or both. You can also get special items loaded on your card when you come in to shop. Example this week I got $2 off when I buy 4 Banquet dinners. Great deal when they are a buck this week. The more you shop the more items you can get.
Kris says
Jolyn – you are in the right spot. The “targeted coupons” are right above the Yes Email Item of the week on my page. I don’t get the get the emails though. Last week when the Purex was on sale I didn’t get it for the email price and went to the service desk where they discovered a letter was missing in my email address. Maybe check that?
Stacey says

Aunt Millies Healthy Goodness BRead BOGO @ 3.19. They are allowing you to use 2 (.55) coupon, so 1.10 off each loaf = .99 for 2 loafs. Great price!
Kerry says
