I would love to add more stores to the Grocery Store Round-Up so if you are interested in doing a grocery store swap for a store that I don't already cover, please contact me

Fiesta 10/28 - 11/03/09

My Fiesta does not double/triple coupons and will not take Internet coupons. They do however have their own coupon book (at times) that you can get at the front of the store or at the customer service desk. They have no loyalty card so the deals you see below are good for all. Click here to locate your closest Fiesta.

I try to make as few grocery trips as possible so I take part in Wal-Mart's price matching policy when I can. The number one ad that I price match is Fiesta, they are out of my way and since they don't take IP's (Internet printables) and Wal-Mart does I can normally get better deals. Even though Fiesta doesn't take IP's I will list any match-ups that I find in case you want to price match at Wal-Mart like I do. Keep in mind Wal-Mart will not price match BOGO sales or store brand prices.


Here are the best deals that I see for this week:

* Produce Department *

~ Hass Avocados - 33¢/each

~ Texas Juice Oranges, 10-lb bag - $4.99/each
(that's less than 50¢/lb)

~ Bartlett Pears - 20¢/each

~ Lemons - 17¢/each

~ Russet Potatoes, 5-lb - $1.69/each
(that's 34¢/lb)

~ Baby Carrots - 99¢/each

~ Fresh Coconuts - 88¢/each


* Grocery Department

~ Old Orchard Apple Juice, 64 oz - $1.38
Use <$1.00>/2 (here) = $1.76/2 or 88¢/each

~ Tabasco Pepper Sauce, 2 oz - 59¢ with in-store coupon
Use <$0.50> (here) = 9¢
I am not sure if the in-store coupon is a store or MFGC, ONLY combine if it is a store coupon. You can always price match the 59¢ price at Wal-Mart and then you don't have to hassle with the in-store coupon.


* Health & Beauty *

~ Aveeno Shampoo/Conditioner, 5.2-10.5 oz - $2.88
Use <$1.50> (All You, June '09) = $1.38
Use <$1.00> (09/27 RP) = $1.88
Use <$1.50>/2 (09/27 RP) = $4.26/2 or $2.13/each

~ LA Looks Gel, Mousse & Hairspray, 20 oz - $1.48
Use <$1.00> (08/02 SS, expires 11/02) = 48¢



That's all I have on my shoppin' list for the week but if you are looking for more Fiesta deals head over to Mommy's Wish List and see what Lea Ann has cooked up for ya. Thanks, Lea Ann!

** Don't forget to bring your own bags & remind the cashier to give you 5¢ back on each bag you bring in & use. This doesn't have to be the reusable bags it can be plastic bags from any store. I roll my used plastic bags then store them in empty tissue cubes. I keep a cube full of bags in my car so that if I forget my reusable bags I at least have these plus they are always handy when you have kids. When your plastic bags get holes don't forget to recycle them at Albies!
