Meijer Deals of the Week 3/11 – 3/17 Meijer Deals of the Week for March 11 -17 are ready! There are quite a few repeats from last week, so if you didn't get a chance to shop last week, you're in luck. Meijer has digital coupons called mPerks. Clip the coupons and shop the items at the same time! (Not all grocery stores offer this, so this is a big PLUS for me.) If you do sign up for an mPerks "card," you will occasionally be mailed personalized coupons based upon your shopping history.

Gear up for St. Patrick's Day with some corned beef, cabbage, and red potatoes! All are on sale at Meijer this week. What else is on sale? Plenty. Take a gander; --> #Wisconsin #Meijer #Groceries #WisconsinConsumer #BargainSleuth #DealsoftheWeek #GrocerySales #GrocerySTores #Discounts #Coupons

National Arbor Day Foundation – Get 10 Trees with $20 Donation! I distinctly remember celebrating Arbor Day at school and bringing home a little 12-inch pine tree. My dad dutifully planted it in the yard, and it grew for a few years. There was also a bigger tree near it that must have come from one of my older brothers and sisters. Now, you, too, can celebrate Arbor Day with 10+ trees from the National Arbor Day Foundation.

Did your school ever celebrate Arbor Day by sending kids home with a teeny tiny tree? Ours did, and now you can help the planet AND get a bunch of trees to plant in your yard. Details --> #Wisconsin #NationalArborDayFdoundation #ArborDay #Donation #Charity #WisconsinConsumer #NorwaySpruce #Lilac

I wanted to point out a deal on Household items that you may want to check out. If you don't know how the 11% rebate works, are you even from the Midwest?

I thought I'd point out a good sale going on right now at Menards. No, not doors and kitchen faucets, although those are on sale, too, but some household products. Details --> #Wisconsin #Menards #WisconsinConsumer #DealsoftheWeek #BargainSleuth #GreenBay #Madison #Milwaukee #Appleton #EauClaire

Festival Foods Deals of the Week 3/4 – 3/10 I really don't shop Festival Foods Grocery Stores anymore, but that may change because I work very close to one. Their meat department is great, and if you go first thing in the morning, you can often find meat marked down in a special section of the department. They offer in-store coupons so grab that flyer at the door - most everything with coupons requires a $5 minimum purchase and a limit of 1 or 2 items per visit.

Aldi Deals of the Week 3/4 – 3/10 I was so misinformed when I was younger. I always thought of Aldi as some scratch-and-dented can store. But when I was on the old blog, I did an article about which grocery store was the cheapest, and Aldi won by a few dollars over Woodmans. (And hey, I'm doing an article about that in the next few weeks!) All the Aldi stores I have been in are really clean and bright.

If you stay out of the Aldi Aisle of Shame, you can really save on groceries. Here's a closer look at some of the deals being offered at Aldi this week. --> #Wisconsin #WisconsinConsumer #BargainSleuth #Aldi #Deals #Groceries #GreenBay #Ashwaubenon #DePere #EauClaire #Appleton #Milwaukee

Hy-Vee Grocery Store – Deals of the Week 3/2 – 3/8 Hy-Vee came to Green Bay with a big bang. While their deals are nothing like they were the first year they came or NE Wisconsin, they still can deliver great savings. Make Sure to get their Perks Plus card so you can earn Fuel Rewards that can be used at area Shell Stations. There is also a Premium membership available for about a $99/year that gives you more perks/fuel savings, but I suggest waiting until around Black Friday, when I was able to get my subscription for 1/2 off.

What's going on at Hy-Vee this week? A closer look at the Deals of the Week, including a focus on Italian foods like pasta and pasta sauce. There's also a seafood sale. Details -> #Wisconsin #WisconsinConsumer #Hyvee #Ashwaubenon #EauClaire #Madison #PerksPlus #FuelSavings #Deals #Groceries

Mamma Mia! – West De Pere High School Feb. 26 – 28, 2026 When I was a broke college student, one of the things I did for fun was attend high school musicals and plays.
