Comparison Shop of the Digital Weekly Deals
With inflation being so high, we’ve got to do some online comparison of the weekly grocery ads. I look at the Kroger ad (zip 45140), I logged into my Kroger account using the my same username/password as my Ralphs account (you’ll need to create a Kroger account) and I added the digital coupons to my Ralphs account. If you’ve already clipped the Ralphs offer go back into the app or dotcom UNCLIP the duplicate Ralphs coupon.
Some of the same items shown below are already the lower price at Food 4 Less.
The Comparison Shop is only a snapshot of the Weekly Digital Deals and not analysis of the entire ad. You still need to go through the ad for the best deals for you, your family and loved ones.
Red Baron Pizza or Pizza Singles or Tony's Pizza, 8.8-23.45 oz $2.99 @ Kroger vs $3.99 @ Ralphs

My brother almost got scammed out of $500😵
From the very beginning, I was not a fan of Facebook. For me, there is something nefarious about Facebook that I cannot quite put my finger on and so I pretty much stay away from it. However, my youngest brother and various cousins on both sides of my family love Facebook. My brother is always telling me "Oh, cousin Kathy said this or that on Facebook."
One day, a couple of weeks ago, my brother texts me saying that our cousin, Jackie, had messaged him on Facebook that she knows a way for him to get $10,000 for being a veteran through a federal agency and I was really excited him to get the money.
A few days go by and my brother send me a picture in a text that shows a box. He also says that our cousin, Jackie asked my brother to send her $500 to cover the postage for the paperwork he'd need to fill out for the $10,000.
I IMMEDIATELY KNEW IT WAS A SCAM. Even if it wasn't a scam, I would tell my cousin to go kick rocks.
My brother then proceeds to tell me that on Facebook, someone had messaged him saying that they were his favorite cousin blah, blah, blah and how he could get $10,000 free from the government and that she'd send him a link to sign up but that the next thing he knew is our cousin want to send him a package for $500.
The thing is that I could see in the picture with the box that it had my brother's full government name on box along with his address.
The only reason my brother is not out of $500 is that he decided he needed to run it by me before sending money. Honestly, I am so grateful that he didn't loose any money.
But the reason I am writing this post because late last week there was a viral story about a lady who lost $50,000 to scammers. As soon as an unknown person on the phone tells me not to call my attorney, regardless, if they say that they're from the police department, FBI or Special Forces, I am hanging up the phone in their face and calling my attorney. Supposedly they were telling the lady that she was involved in a legal matter...but she can't call her attorney nor husband?
There's an old saying "Believe half of what you see and none of what you hear." and another old favorite saying that I love "If it doesn't sound right then it's not true."
I get scammer that text me and I just block them. The stuff that they say is so ridiculous and implausible that I cannot deal. Anything that involves money, you have to get a second opinion from someone you trust because you should know that the FBI don't want your $50,000 when the feds can print as much money as they like.
Watch out for the scammers before the scammers get you!

New changes to the Merryfield app
This morning, I received an email from Merryfield app and the most important thing that they had to say was the following:
EARNING EVERYDAY REWARDS
Starting today, every brand on the Merryfield app will offer varying levels of Everyday Rewards, ranging from 1% to 10% back in points. Most brands remain at 5%, and you can see all current percentages by exploring the “See All Brands” page in the app. Since our goal is to continuously expand our brand selection so shoppers like you have more opportunities to get rewarded, we’ve simplified the process for brands to join Merryfield. Part of this process includes creating more flexibility to our Everyday Rewards program, enabling more brands to join at a level that works for their company.
I don't know what Merrfield's original mission statement was but I thought it was something like healthy or food for you foods and because they are now struggling to make ends meet, it appears that they are now wiling to work with any brand including McDonald's!

FTC & 8 States suing to block Kroger-Albertsons supermarket deal
Thank goodness, this Kroger-Albertson acquisition has been stopped dead in it's tracks! Without competition, especially in Southern California, we will get nothing but high prices and excuses about inflation is the reason for the high prices! As far as I am concern, this deal is over.

Vons/Albertsons: FREE or Cheap Robert Mondavi Private Selection Wine🍷🏃🏽♀️🔥
A reader, Denise, says the following: At Vons the Robert Mondavi Private Selection Wine. is $5.56. I have a Fetch offer for this giving me 6,000 points a botlle. There is a limit of 3! I did have to have Fetch correct my points though.
Check your Fetch account for offer amount as all Fetch Rewards offers vary by account because as you see, my offer is 4,000 ($4) which is still an awesome deal especially if you get invited to a get together, a bottle of wine is a great host/hostess gift.
Thanks, Denise!

Walmart: FREE+MM Dove & Dove Men Body Wash⏰
I have been in bed almost all day because I've come down with a cold of some sort but now that I've got a little energy I wanted to post that savingwithsav on Instagram posted the quick Dove Walmart scenario and she says the following:
FREE DOVE AT WALMART - If you don’t use alexa, you can use swagbucks instead! - MAKE SURE you scan one on shopmium and the other on alexa, don’t scan the same item meaning they may vary at your store. These varieties are the cheapest at my location, but look around. Tags don’t look any different! - *After Walmart started the body wash clearance a few weeks back some of the dove prices permanently dropped. They may vary per store, but check which scents are cheapest at your store. Tags will look normal!
If you do not have the Fetch Rewards app, my Fetch Rewards referral code is D4ASD.
👀 Kroger Ad 📰 EARLY Preview 2/28-3/5
The early preview of the Kroger ad gives the Kroger affiliated store shoppers an idea, if we should be buying something from the current ad or wait until the upcoming ad.
Ibotta's New Unique Redemption Offers?🤔
I had saw a YouTuber talk about how Ibotta had changed it's definition of a unique offer this before Ohio Valley Couponer posted his video and she'd confirmed that she'd gotten credit for buying multiples of the same item. However, Ibotta's definition about "unique offers" appears to want people to get excited about nothing. If there is a freebie or Money Maker offer then you may get excited only if the bonus allows for multiple redemptions of the same item to count for the bonus.
In the first sentence of Ibotta' s What are unique offers? it says the following:
Some bonuses will allow multiple redemption offers to count towards progress through 04/30/24. If a bonus allows multiple redemptions, it will be in the bonus details.
I will probably continue to only make multiple redemptions of the same product, in the same transaction, only if it's free and it's something my family wants or needs or if it's a money maker.
