San Diego Saver: February 2026

Go Fill up your Gas Tanks before the price of Gas goes up⛽️

Brokers have told the FT that war risk insurers have submitted cancellation notices for policies covering ships moving through the Strait of Hormuz, a key oil chokepoint, with prices set to rise as much as 50% in the coming days https://t.co/GPTUFWCZhC pic.twitter.com/1EsEp5Tax0
— Financial Times (@FT) February 28, 2026

The insurers of oil tankers have cancelled their policies due to the US/Iran war. If the price increase by up 50% that means food prices, essentials, etc. will increase by up to 50% too since they are trucked to the stores.

Smart & Final: Pepsi Products 6pk 16.9oz $2.99 Limit 4

My God, it's already 80 degrees in San Diego and it's only 10:30 a.m...and where I live is considered coastal. I cannot imagine the temperature in the inland and desert areas of San Diego. I ran my air conditioner, yesterday because it got to 88 degrees. Last week, the high was like 50 degrees and we was running our heater, now this week, the weather is trying to kill us off.

Smart & Final has the Pepsi Product 6pk 16.9oz on sale for $2.99, limit 4.

$0.75 Synergy Kombucha 16oz Ibotta offer!!!

If you've recently purchased the Free Synergy Kombucha 16oz (the offer ended 2/23) and you still have your receipt, submit for the $0.75 Synergy Kombucha 16oz Ibotta offer!!!

If you are like me and you've already drunk your kombucha, you can go HERE and use the bar code feature to add your missing rebate by using the Ibotta app scanner. I bought my drink at Ralphs but for whatever reason, Ibotta's app scanner couldn't pick up the drink because the receipt description on showed GTS Kombucha and I used the HERE link to basically search the product name and bring up the product bar code. Back in the day, we would have used Brick Seek before they started charging people to use that website.

San Diegans let your voice be heard about the city budget cuts

The City has begun its next budget process. We have already closed hundreds of millions of dollars of a longstanding structural deficit, but we will have to do more requiring even tougher choices. It’s important for me to hear from you. Give your feedback: https://t.co/KN5IxRfKef pic.twitter.com/6GswUV5KTd
— San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria (@MayorToddGloria) February 26, 2026

Mayor Gloria is asking for feedback because they need to cut $120 million from the city's budget. The survey says it's 5 minutes but it's really a good 10 minutes. Advocate for the services that you want the city to continue. It's tough trying to decide to you want the streets to be swept or cut the library hours. If you are a resident of the city of San Diego...take the survey and let your voice be heard.

You can do both lunchmeat offers on Swagbucks/Mypoints, if you submitted for the $6/2 offer, submit the receipt again and click contact customer support and the ticket will be approved within a few hours about 8 hours. I kept getting the quantity error too.

Use some common sense with rebates

This is the second inquiry post on Reddit about aisle rebates slow to pay out (the inquiry from last week is HERE) and yes, we get fantastic deals like the Free nutpods creamer but you have to use your common sense. The person that made the inquiry had $60 in pending reimbursements...SIXTY DOLLARS!

I have seen a lot of rebate apps collapse and go out of business, therefore, I know not to spend gobs of money without reimbursement.

Personally, my tolerance for reimbursement from rebates is about $20 and I have absolutely no problem returning something, if for some reason the rebate doesn't work out because I don't care if the employee think that I am poor, ghetto or whatever...because I know what we have in our bank accounts.

If you don't have a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of...you definitely should not be extending $60 to a corporation because they can change the terms of condition at any time.

If I am going to blow $60, I'd rather it be at Sephora or Bath & Body Works.

Set boundaries for yourself on rebates because another deal will be just around the corner!

{UPDATE} Walmart: FREE or Cheap Hillshire Ultra Thin Lunchmeat

This is an all around good deal especially since the NCAA March Madness 2026 will begin in a couple of weeks and making your own homemade sub sandwiches is the way to go!

romyysaves on IG posted the Walmart freebie deal shown above! If you don't have the Inboxdollars app but you have Mypoints, there's a 960 points which equals to $5.76 (960 x .006 = $5.76) which makes the price $0.08 for 2 packs of the lunchmeat.

UPDATE: There is a $6 Swagbucks offer.
