  2. Can anyone who reads this post the fresh produce deals in the aldi's circular from today? I didn't get my paper today and I wanted to get out to Aldi's tonight before they closed if there was anything good....

  3. Liz - were you able to use the $3 in ad coupon for the Bayer Low Dose 32 ct? I'd heard stores in other cities were displaying signs saying the coupon was only good on the 100 ct packages and larger, even though it shows the 32 ct.

  4. I was able to use the $3 in ad coupon. The assistant manager agreed that the ad showed the 32 ct so he did a price override and gave me the products for free- then went back and posted a sign.
    Still not a bad deal if you use this product $2.99 (less $1 off coupons) and if you buy 2 you get $3 RR.

  5. Several St. Louis stores have the Bayer aspirin bundled at "get one free"...at some stores it rings up at $2.99 and others $3.19....both work for the $3 RR. Using the $1.50 coupons that are out there, it still comes out FREE!!
