Fry's: Pick Up The Values Promotion

This Pick Up The Values Promotion that Fry's is running is very different from the usual Mega (Buy 5, Save $5) Promotion in that you have to load an eCoupon to get the additional savings. Normally, you cannot combine an eCoupon with a Manufacturer's coupon, but in this case, you can.

For days, I waffled over whether it was unethical couponing to combine a Manufacturer's coupon with the eCoupon because verbiage on the eCoupon indicates that "Digital coupons and paper coupons may not be combined on the purchase of a single item."

Why I think this promotion is different from typical eCoupons:
  • Normally when you use try to use an eCoupon with a Manufacturer's coupon, the manuf coupon will beep and won't go through. That's not the case with the Pick up the Value eCoupon.

  • This promotion was advertised in the Smart Source booklet that came in the Sunday paper. They mentioned that you could use "additional savings" found in the coupon booklet.

  • Manufacturer eCoupons have come off with the Pick Up the Value eCoupon on one item.
It's up to you whether or not to participate in this promotion.

Important Information:
  • You can head over HERE to load the Pick Up The Values eCoupon.
  • The eCoupon will take $5 off every 5 participating items, up to 25 items in one transaction.
  • Once you use the eCoupon, it will disappear. This means that if you only buy 5 items and use that eCoupon, it won't be available for you to purchase more items on another day.
  • You can mix and match items
  • Fry's makes all coupons $1.00. This is limited to 3 like coupons per transaction, though!
  • In the list below, all underlined items will lead to a site where you can print the coupon.
These are the best deals:

Colgate Total Mouthwash 8.4 oz $2.99

-$1.10 off any Colgate Total or Colgate Optic White (8oz or larger)

Let's assume that I bought three 9/22 Sunday newspapers.
I could purchase (3) packs of Huggies wipes, (2) bottles of Palmolive dish soap, (3) Soft Soap hand soaps, and (2) Speed Stick Deodorants for a total of 10 items. The Pick Up The Values eCoupon would take off $1.00 per item since I bought in increments of 5. My final total (after coupons) would be $0.98 plus tax! Great deal!
