Hannaford has a new Hoop Fever contest that started today. If you enter your favorite game day recipe, you will have a chance to win a $250, $150 or $100 gift card, plus you get a $2 off coupon just for entering!
This contest runs through March 24.
CLICK HERE then click on Enter Contest. You may have to allow the ap to open.
Fill in your info then click Continue
Enter your recipe then upload. I always save my text to notepad before hitting upload in case something goes wrong so I don’t have to retype!
Then you can either add your friends or just hit skip. You are done!
The coupon is for $2 off anything with only a $2 minimum purchase! And it’s pdf, so save it to your desktop to print as needed. Pick up something in the store for $2 and get it free!
If you don’t want to enter the contest, you can get the coupon here. But remember, you need to enter if you want to have a chance at winning one of the gift cards!

GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED: Winner picked randomly is Blessy Mathew. Congrats Blessy!
On Wednesday, I had a giveaway and in order to enter, readers had to send me their frugal tips. What a fun giveaway that was! Thank you for all your tips.
See the Frugal Tips from my Readers here
This weekend’s giveaway is a super easy one. All you have to do is share this post on facebook then leave a comment under that post letting me know you shared!
To those of you who entered the giveaway on Wednesday, if you also enter this giveaway, you will get 3 additional entries to win!
This contest runs until midnight eastern on Sunday, March 4.
I will choose one winner randomly from all the entries I receive. The winner will get $20 worth of Hannaford coupons from the coupon booklet that came out last fall, including…
(10) $1 off any Hannaford item
(10) $1 off any My Essential item
***BONUS*** If by any chance your shares get me to 1000 facebook fans (that will be tough to do, especially over the weekend), I will pick 3 lucky winners!
This is the last contest I’ll have with these coupons as a prize… so get in on this one!
The nice thing about these coupons is they do not state a minimum purchase, so you can walk in and buy a $1 item and get it for FREE! Use all the coupons and you’ll get $20 worth of FREE food!
The coupons expire March 16, and since you can only use 1 of each per transaction (it states one per household but they have always allowed using them each time you shop), you will need to do 10 mini trips to use them all.
Good luck!

This is the 5th week in a row (yes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 weeks) that Hannaford does not have a store catalina coupon for us when we scan our Hannaford stickers (2/26 through 3/3). At least not according to their weekly email.
You might be wondering why I keep reporting this non-deal week after week… well, it’s because I know many people know think scanning their Hannaford sticker is a waste of time, but I want to remind everyone that you still need to scan it if you are a SavingStar member.
You might also be wondering why they don’t give us a shiny new store catalina each week. When I called and spoke to Robin (see below) she told me it’s not cost-effective for them to do a coupon every week. Okay. But they are spending lots of money sending us all stickers that most people will stop using because they don’t get anything when scanning it. Does that make sense?
On a good note, some of us were able to score some almost free I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter (me, me, me) and Country Crock (not me) this week. No sticker necessary… lol! The deal might still be going on… see if you can still print the coupons then check your Hannaford!!!
Anyway, you still need to scan your sticker at Hannaford if you are a SavingStar member. I really think the only reason Hannaford even came up with a sticker program is so they could be involved with SavingStar.
Learn about SavingStar here. And check out the SavingStar Quaker deal where you get $5 back for spending $15! There is also a Kellogg’s saving star deal for $5 back if you spend $20. Go to your account and check it out!
If you would like to see a weekly catalina coupon at Hannaford or if you would like Hannaford to change their policy to allow coupon stacking, call 1-800-341-6393, ask for Robin Woodbury’s voice mail and leave a quick message!

I am beyond excited to report that I got a deal at Hannaford… yes, Hannaford! Sure, I get deals at Hannaford using their various $1 off store coupons. But, it’s rare that I use my printed coupons there since they don’t have the good sales Shaw’s has and they don’t double coupons.
Well, tonight was different!
I noticed that facebook fan Danielle posted on Chrystie’s I Love to Gossip facebook page that Hannaford in Gray had I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter on closeout for $1.35. I posted the info on my page, then fan Jennifer said Millinocket also had it on closeout. And guess what? Sanford did too!
After using this $1.25 off any ICBINB product, a two pack of spread was only 10¢ each! I got 4 packs for just 40¢ which works out to only 5¢ per tub of ICBINB! Ain’t life grand?
Sanford still had plenty left, so if you are in Sanford, print this coupon and head to the store!
Country Crock is also on closeout for $1.25, so only 25¢ after this $1/1 Country Crock coupon (try 90210 or 77477). Sanford, however, was wiped out. Maybe your Hannaford has some!
Let’s hear it for Hannaford… hip, hip, hooray!
Oh, and the coupons did not scan (new bar code) but my cashier kindly entered them manually :O)

This is the 4th week in a row that Hannaford does not have a catalina coupon for us when we scan our Hannaford stickers (2/19-2/25). Seems like they need to come up with something on a weekly basis to reward those who take the time to order those little stickers!
However, their weekly email boasts that we can now rate and review their products, so that might be fun! It looks like you have to sign up for the Hannaford sticker to be allowed to rate and review.
Another thing Hannaford keeps promoting on a weekly basis is SavingStar. If you are a SavingStar member, you must scan your Hannaford sticker every time you shop so you can get your SavingStar refunds. Learn about SavingStar here. And check out the SavingStar Quaker deal where you get $5 back for spending $15!
If you would like to see a weekly catalina coupon at Hannaford or if you would like Hannaford to change their policy to allow coupon stacking, call 1-800-341-6393, ask for Robin Woodbury’s voice mail and leave a quick message!
