Rainbow Shopping List 5/17 – 5/23/09

This deal has expired and may no longer be valid.

 free

Wow!  This is a fabulous week at Rainbow with 15 different items free after coupons.  Remember that you can print each coupon twice from a single computer.  The final price per item assumes you shop on Wednesday and have the value of your coupons doubled.  Since these are such great deals, it seems likely to me that some stores will run out of some products.  Be sure to stop at the Customer Service desk and ask for a raincheck if that happens to you; you use the raincheck next week to get the item at this week’s sale price.

This list is organized by section of the grocery store, then by price within each section with the freebies first.  Click here to see a run down of Rainbow’s coupon policies and how to get your coupons doubled in value.

  1. Tabby says:

    When Rainbow was in my town they only let us use 4 coupons to be doubled, where do they let you use more than 4? I live in the west part metro.

    • Carrie Rocha says:

      Tabby – You can only double 5 coupons per transaction. I usually do more than one transaction so more coupons can be doubled. You can see a complete run down of Rainbow’s coupon policies here. Hope that helps! –Carrie

  2. Wendy says:

    I picked up a Kashi coupon book in the natural foods section of Coborn’s (I heard Whole Foods may also have these coupons). In it, there is a $1 off coupon for Kashi Rice Pilaf which is on sale for $2, so after doubling it will be free. There is also a coupon for $1 off Kashi granola which after doubled would make a box $1.

  3. Tammy Wolf says:

    Thanks for all the effort you put into your site.
