Albertsons deals 7/1 – 7/7 (Northwest Region)

Here are the deals for Albies this week! The big news is that the Mix and Match event is continuing this week! Be sure to read this entire post…there are catalina promotions in conjunction with a few of the sale items this week. And there are rumors of doublers this weekend, 7/5 – 7/7, so you may want to watch your paper! I've also read rumors of some secret "big promotion" coming to Albies really soon…maybe unlimited doublers? Bring back competitor coupons? Let's keep our ears open, fellow couponers!

MIX & MATCH EVENT

For every 10 participating items you buy, you'll save $5 automatically at the register with your Albertsons preferred card.

There are many, many items. Here are some that stood out to me as being good deals. My prices are AFTER the promotional discount has been applied. If you would like more information about how to plan a good Mix & Match shopping trip, please read my post here. And don't forget those doublers for some extra savings!
