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 will NOT double, but they could stretch your savings on Spartan brands 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 participating group and submit your receipts. Trinity Lutheran Church in Utica uses the Community Share Program to purchase socks for the homeless. You can leave your receipts at the front desk there if you can’t find another organization.
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!
Shannon says
The sure deordorant coupon says do not double
Amber says
Make sure you watch the registers and the coupons, I went to two stores and at one they had everything marked on the shelves at the price if you buy 5 products which was very helpful, but at the second store they werent marked that way plus the register didnt take my $5 off or ring up my Pantene styler right. The cashier said the first day of the sales they are always working the kinks out.
Amanda says
Ok I am not finding the 50 cent coupons for crest in the p&g this week. Were they in the Detroit free-press and not the journal? Because I don’t have them and I bought four papers.
Jolyn says
No, I need to update the P&G coupon amounts – the database had some of them listed incorrectly. 🙁 Sorry for the inconvenience.
Angie Mullins says
The Howell VG’s doubles coupons even when they say “do not double”. I used the 75 cent sargento coupon there on Saturday and they doubled it even though it says not to on the coupon….pretty flexible store.
Jill says
Angie, The VG’s in Howell is NOT suppose to double coupons that say DO NOT double. You got lucky and had a cashier that screwed up. I shop there all the time and 95 % of the time they are not doubled if stated.
Lorie says
The Howell VG’s doubles all the coupons I have that say do not double, especially if you go through the U Scan. I had a manager tell me that there is no way to override the system (something about some had a 5 & some have a 9 the ones with a 5 will still go through). I had three different coupons that were automatically doubled.
The Sargento Sliced Cheese is still cheaper at Meijer’s this week without doubling the coupon, it’s on sale there. 🙁
Chris says
That has not been my experience at Howell. I quit going through uscan because it ended up taking longer because the cashier had to input the coupons anyway. And there is a way to override it. Has that changed?
coupon guy says
odd that coupon manufacturers care about whether a store doubles or not since the extra discount is coming from the store! anyone have a theory why they should care if the local store wants to further discount an item?
Kori S says
I had a huge problem with the P&G at Owosso VG’s on Sunday. Not all of the items listed here are in the ad as participating items and none of the shelves were marked, so I took up only items in the ad. None of the items were correctly marked on the tags and they didn’t ring up according to the ad either. I was at the customer service desk but only 2 registers with actual cashiers were open so all of a sudden I had 10 people behind me so I asked if there was someone else that could help me because it was incorrect and no one else could, so I asked her to just void it and I would come back later. I told her though that nothing was correctly ringing up according to the sale ad and she said that that sale ad is for many stores but not necessarily correct for their store! She said that they don’t always follow the ad! I said, wait, I got this ad in your store and she continued that yes, it is in their store, but not necessarily reflective of their prices! WHAT!?? So if anyone gets the P&G deal at the Owosso store, please post your scenario because I don’t want to make people wait behind me for 20 minutes while I figure out if it is right since nothing is marked. Thanks! 🙂
Amanda M says
I shop the Owosso store…got 3 Old Spice body wash, 4 Pantene, 1 Always pads, and 2 Bounce dryer sheets. Spent about $8.25 on everything. Hoping they are stocked back up on the Unstoppables today…
Kimmy says
I went on Tues and bought 2 pantene styling product, 2 pantene shampoos, and satin care shave gel for $2. The prices were reflective of the ad!! Sorry you had a bad time=(
Emily says
Does anyone have any idea how much the 3.5 angus roast usually costs? Just curious how good of a deal it is to get those 5 items free! Thanks
Jolyn says
I thought in the past it was around $10-15. The roast isn’t on sale, and it’s not cheap.
Shelley says
Does anyone know if the “limit 2” on the Tide sale is 2 of each item or 2 Tide brand products total? Could I buy 2- 50oz liquids, 2- 36 oz stain release, 2- stain remover pens, & 2- washing machine cleaners? Just curious because I stocked up on this weeks P&G insert for the Tide coupons 🙂
Allie says
Isn’t there a deal on chunky soup this week?
mike says
Chunky soup is buy 5 get 5. The limit on tide is on the liquid detergent
cathy says
i was talking to cashier at kroger she said the store gets paid by manufacture if they double it unless it says do not double on the coupon.
mary kay says
my ad mentions that Wisk is on sale for $4.99, use the $2 coupon and it is $2.99, not free but cheap. I didnt see this mentioned, but maybe it is my store onll.
Sarah says
Corunna Rd. Vg’s had the Ore-Ida potatoes on sale 2/5$ and instead of getting the third free, they took 2.50$ off. I got overly excited and bought 10. There must have been a limit that I overlooked on the sign, because I only got 3 $2.50’s off. Still, GREAT deal. Especially with the Ore-Ida coupons. So with coupons and all discounts, I spent 1.45/bag
Jolyn says
That sounds right to me – you need to buy in groups of 3. Since you bought 1 extra, you don’t get a free one with that set. You should have received 3 free ($-2.50).
coupon guy says
the Spartan Split Chicken Breast – i’m assuming this is has to be “de-boned” manually once you get it home?
Autumn says
Yup!
Janet says
Which stores still double to $1?
Amanda says
I don’t know where you live, but the one in Burton on court st doubles $1.
