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.
Visit the Meat Department and hunt for the yellow rectangular markdown tags. VG’s routinely offers 50% off soon-to-expire meat; most packages are good cuts of meat with no sign of aging and won’t expire for 2 more days, which allows plenty of time for cooking or freezing.
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!

THANKS Tanya!!!!!
Even better… the Oral-B coupon we got in this area is for $1/2 cavity defese toothbrushes, so they’re FREE! 🙂
I am wondering about the Scott 12 roll t paper for 4.99 less today’s $1 doubled = 2.99 for 12 double rolls not sure if that is a great deal or not, I don’t think I have ever purchased Scott.
Crest 10 for 10 special worked with doubled buy two get $1 off P &G coupon (from end of year?) to result in two free Crest toothpaste. I was told at the S.H. store that the Sargento coupon won’t double. Additionally, Bob Evan sausage special with coupon from today’s paper resulted in final price of $1.50 per item. Please watch your YES program points. I’ve already had multiple occassions where my points are accumulating and no one seems to have answers in-store, I’ve just been advised to save receipts until the program isn’t so “new”.
I have asked a lot of questions about the YES point, my points haven’t shown up and I was told they could be manually entered so definitely keep your receipts.
The Crest toothpaste that’s on sale is 3.5 oz; the Crest coupons I have state 4.0 oz+.
I forgot to mention Daisy Cottage Cheese (from Sunday 1-16 SS) with doubled $.75 coupon is final price of $1,29.
I found a $1/2 Halls 30+ count cough drops coupon in my November ‘All You’ Magazine (p178). So should be able to get 2 for free this week!
Muellers.com has 55 cent off one coupons. You can print as many as you want.
It’s http://www.muellerspasta.com, not Muellers.com
the Kellogg’s nutri-grain bars rang full price (with no adjustment lower on the receipt) last week @ Howell VG’s, despite the shelf tag indicating $2.99 sale price. They gave me back the cash ($.60 each), but it meant another trip to the store to get it…
I am not sure if there is a mathematical equation you can use for t paper sizes/price…someone should write an app for that. Trying to decipher the sizing labels is confusing…
The Scott t paper 12 roll is 656 sq foot for 2.99 after doubled q. I could not get the size on the Charmin because they were out and did not have any in the back room.
Thanks!
The Charmin says 140.9 sq ft.
Oooh, really? Then it’s not a stock up price at all. Wow.
At the risk of sounding dumb, I’m guessing this is for the whole package? I bought 2 packs and when taking the tp out of one, there are 9 rolls that seem very small.
If they’re that small, I’d guess that’s all there is. It’s the way they keep their prices the same – the incredible shrinking product.
If you have the P&G booklet that was sent for buying 50.00 worth of products, I swear that there is a 1.00/1 coupon in there. I haven’t had a chance to look yet. I just noticed it.
nm. I just looked at it. it wouldnt apply.
The spartan challenge items are different for this week. It’s peanut butter and jelly.
Are they week-long deals or month-long deals? The website listed them as monthly, but I haven’t been to the store to check.
There is an in-store correction notice posted for the Quaker/milk deal. The $3.00 comes off INSTANTLY on your milk purchase, so take at least $3 worth to the register. I bought 2 gallons along with 5 participating items, and the full $3 came off.
Stupid question…did you use 5 coupons? They’re the same coupon, so I don’t think all 5 will double, is that right? Either way, I think it’s a decent deal!
I didn’t use 5 Quaker coupons. I used 3, then bought 2 boxes of cereal (we love the Oatmeal Squares!). Since I was buying milk anyway, when taking the $3 off, I only paid $2.50 for all 5 items.
The Mueller’s whole-wheat pasta is included in the $1.00 sale also, so the $0.55/1 coupons (1-2 SS) make it FREE!
Thanks!
The Spartan Challenge is a 3-4 week program, it all depends on the cycle.
Any YES! questions I have had are answered very well at the North Fenton location. The managers Chris and Kevin seem to know their stuff very well. Give that store a call since the program is banner wide with any questions!
Kikkoman Soy Sauce is 1.99 reg. price.
It’s free with the SS printable 1.00 off coupon.
what date was the Kikkoman coupon? thanks!
The date is 02/17/2011
Link to Printable coupon:
http://www.kikkomanusa.com/homecooks/offers/coupons.php
Be careful with the toothbrushes. For some reason my coupon did not double to $2, it doubled to $1.49.
And there are Danimal Coolisions yogurt on sale for $1.67 with $.55 peelies on them that double making them $.57 a box!
Just got back from VG’s and saved a bunch thanks to b2b…here’s a few more good deals I found. Just started weight watchers online so these are healthier and generally more $’s but great deals with doubles.
Earthbound Organic Spring Mix $4.99 – $1/1 = $2.99 (huge container)
Land O Lakes Premium Turkey $3.00 – $1/1 = $1.00
Sabra Hummus $3.00 – $1/1 = $1.00
Polander Sugar Free Preserves $2.99 – $1/1 = .99
(All printables) 🙂
Also picked up the ww pasta, progresso tomato soup etc as shown in “op”
Hope this helps any other weight loss warriors out there!
All regular prices on those, Kathy?
All sale prices 🙂 sent you the link on the coupons I spelled wrong
Where did you find the suger free jelly coupon?
http://www.polanerallfruit.com/polaner/index.html
(sorry, didn’t get to post that one yet!)
The ChiChi flour tortillas are on sale for $2, plus there’s a .50 cent coupon in the 1/16 SS. That brings them down to $1 a pack.
Was anyone successful finding the Kikkoman Soy Sauce and Pringles Super Stacks at the Shelby location?
I found an 8 pack of the Pringles Super Stacks but the regular price is $2.50.
I found the Pringles there Wednesday morning. I thought there were plenty and they were $1.50. I can’t remember if they were signed or not. I just looked at mine and it says super stack on the package pretty small. They were in the chip aisle.
was at Shelby today (my first ever VG trip!) and the only super stakcs that were out were the reduced fat- they had the rest. Only had one flavor on Progresso soups and no t-brushes. I thought the PB was a good deal as the Jif was $2.22 and then the Spartan was free. It was also Smucker’s grape jelly. The people there are nice!! Darn it I forgot about the bags!!
First off, thanks for breakdown, I spent $2.74 and got tons!
Just wanted to point out, that at my store (Marien City) they had colgate toothpaste 50% some. I got colgate total advanced whitening 4. oz for free (after $.75 coupon doubled) and colgate total whitening paste 7.8 oz for $.12 (after $1 doubled). There was a label stating 50% off in front of the item, not all colgate is 50%, just selected items. Not sure if other area stores are doing this or it was just my store.
I spelled the city of where my VG’s is, it is in Marine City, we are very far east. I moved from Warren, I wish I knew about you guys before I moved, you are wonderful!
VG’s (Shelby) is limiting all varieties of the on sale Mueller’s pasta to 3 boxes. No separate transactions, either. I had coupons for whole wheat and regular, had to leave 6 boxes behind. All of my coupons expire 01/31…hopefully someone else throws them on sale before then. I’m sitting in my car debating on if I should be a snot and make a second trip inside.
The VG’s in Sterling Heights, allows you to use the .55c off whole wheat pastas and the $1/2 Q for any mueller’s pasta and the printed off the internet Q .55c off any mueller’s pasta in one transaction. I asked about it and they said since they are not identical coupons than you can have 3 of each one in one transaction. That’s alot of free pasta in one order!
That is how I did it all in one transaction. I had 9 packages of noodles and 3 breadsticks for 2.98
Because they’ve had trouble keeping it in stock, some stoe’s have limited it to 3 total Mueller’s coupons per transaction.
Exactly Jolyn, that’s what they told me. I had 3 of the wheat pasta coupons ($0.55), 3 of the regular pasta ($1 off 2), and had printed 3 $1 off from the Mueller’s site. This cashier didn’t care that it was different varieties/different coupons, she was hardcore, haha! I did end up going back in and got 3 more boxes, and did the self-checkout since they were open now. I drove 20 minutes at 5:40am, I was getting my pasta! Too many pregnant/”just had a baby” friends need meals! I still have a ton left dealing I had bought so many papers. Here’s hoping someone has a sale before the end of the month! Can’t wait for the new matchups:)
