Keep your eyes open at checkout for a free Wall Calendar coupon from Shutterfly, a $21.99 value! (also received one at Safeway). I don't know what I did to get it, but it's going to make a nice Christmas gift for the in-laws — and it's free! I haven't finished adding all my pictures yet, so I don't know if they charge shipping or if it's guaranteed to arrive before Christmas, but I have my fingers crossed.

**Scroll down to see Circle of Savings Deals:

**There was an extra insert in this week's paper ad geared towards all of our holiday baking needs. We didn't see it on-line and some didn't get in their paper. There are several available inside the store if you didn't get in your ads. One page had an extra surprise giving an instant $5 savings  when you buy any 10 items (on that page). Here are the listed items. (You must buy 10 qualifying items to get the lowest price.  The lowest price assumes you are buying in multiples of 10. It does not state a limit on how many $5 redemptions you can get and you can mix and match.) 

NEW** Although there isn't a limit printed in the ads, I asked a clerk and she said the system only lets you do 3 redemptions in any single transaction. Good to know so that you can match your coupon's # requirements into multiples of 10. The same thing applies to the Circle of Savings deals (buy 8, save $4).

***WATCH YOUR RECEIPTS!***
Michelle had a problem with the $5 coming off, at two different stores.  Maybe one item is not in the system and doesn't trigger the reward??  The shelf tags will show the higher price and $5 should come off, if you buy 10 qualifying items — at the end.  All the items are shown on a page of their weekly ad, if you need to reference it.
