Beer Rebates- The Non-Beer Drinkers' Friend

Be on the lookout for Beer Rebates. A lot look like this:



The are usually on the beer aisle or next to the beer displays. I don't see them too often in my town, but they are *usually* found at Smiths and Albertsons. I have a couple extra of the 2 I posted.

One is for $15 back on your $15 or larger purchase of: Tanning Oil and Lotions, Beach Chairs, Umbrellas, Coolers, Towels, Beach Hats, Sandals, or Sunglasses. So if you bought any of these items from 5/1 until now and have the receipt for 'em, I have a couple extra of these rebate forms. The items can be on different receipts.

The other rebate is for $25 back on your $100 grocery bill. This is little tricker. If you purchased $100 of "food" on 1 day in the month of August then I have a couple extra of this rebate. The food items can be on different receipts, but they have to be dated on the same day.

There are a bunch of other beer rebates circulating these days on purchases of deli items, snacks, chips, meat, etc. Keep your eyes open for them. And for all you nay-sayers out there...I have received 100% of my beer rebates back. Though, the other day I got my first rejection note (I didn't buy a qualifying item). Keep a record of your rebate by making a copy, scanning it, or taking a picture of it. Most rebate forms have a phone number you can call with questions or to check the status.

Last, you don't have to buy beer to use these rebates. They all state "no beer purchase required" or "no beer purchase required in UT." The beer companies just want to pay you for your purchases. They are nice that way. I say, "let 'em" and let's bleed 'em dry.

Fun Deal at Albertsons

I must admit I personally am a hot dog snob. If I'm buying hot dogs that I will be eating they have to be "beef." Sadly, my kids eat whatever I buy which often = cheapie ones.

Anyway, if you don't care about what kind of hotdogs your family eats, then here is a deal for you:

Ball Park Franks are Buy 1 get 2 free at Albertsons through next Tuesday. The first one cost $3.99. So $3.99 for 3 packages of dogs. Now I know your saying, "That's crazy, why don't I go to Macey's and buy the John Morrell kind for .50 a package." This is where it gets fun. There are coupons on the hot dog buns for buy 2 hotdogs get buns free. There are also coupons by the hotdogs for "buy 1 hot dog and 1 bun get a 12 pk of coke free, up to $4.99." Then, there is a deal for buy 2 coke 12 packs get 3 free (the 2 you pay for are $5.99 and the coupon is only good up to 4.99, so you have to pay a $1 for them). So, if you combine all the coupons and promotions you can get this...

6 packages of hotdogs
3 packages of hotdog buns and
6 12 packs of Coke for...
$10.98

Perfect for your Labor day picnic.

****ETA:**** If you do want Beef hotdogs...You can buy 4 Oscar Meyer Beef Franks for $7 (they are 4 for $10 - the $3 kraft promotion)

OR, you could go to Smiths (or price match at Walmart) and get Ballpark BEEF franks for $2.50. If you had the coupons I mentioned you could get 2 pks hotdogs, 1 package of buns, and 2 coke 12pk for $5.00. The coupons needed are found in stores (not in your Sunday inserts) so this only works if your store *happens* to have the coupons (who wants to take that chance?) or if you've gathered the coupons beforehand and held on to 'em waiting for a sale...(if you see a coupon "tearpad" and it is for a product you use definitely take a couple. If the product isn't at a buying point then, save it for later).
