Sunday Insert Round Up

Are you enjoying this cooler weather? It’s still inspiring me to invest in some new purchases for fall. Once again, today’s inserts give you plenty of opportunities to save on all things seasonal.

There are coupons from SmartSource up for grabs today, so get ready to start clipping.

Kroger is introducing a new organic brand, Simple Truth, this week, and has many products on sale. Nutrition bars, canned beans, butter, soy milk, broth, chicken, salad, milk and eggs from the brand are all on sale this week.
Select products throughout the store are eligible for $2 in instant savings when you buy two. Some participating products include Pepsi, Tide and Downy.

Kmart still has clearance apparel for the family priced $3.99 and $5.99.
There’s also information about the store’s layaway program in today’s ad. While there are cancellation fees, layaway at Kmart is available with no service fee with an 8-week contract. There will be a $10 service fee on a 12-week contract. This offer is valid on new layaway purchases made Sept. 23 through Sept. 29.
Additionally, Shop Your Way Rewards Members will receive a $25 Kmart gift card with the purchase of a transferred prescription.

As a reminder, when you get your flu shot at CVS you’ll receive a shopping pass for 20% off your next purchase.
You can save $10 on “The Avengers” DVD when you spend $20 on participating products this week. Some of these products include Pepsi, theater box candy, Pop-Secret, DiGiorno and licensed Halloween costumes.
Another reminder: Always remember to scan your Extra Care card at the coupon kiosk in stores! This week, you’ll receive a coupon for $10 off Crest 3D Whitestrips and a coupon for $4 off any $12 cosmetics purchase. You may receive other coupons as well.

There are also tons of freebies and gift cards with purchase this week — too many to list! It should be noted, though, that you can get up to $75 in free gift cards when you buy participating P&G products.
