How to stock up on 'FREE' Ground Beef






Right now Hamburger Helper has a WONDERFUL coupon on it for Save $3 WUB Ground Beef... No limitations, and a long term expiry...

Giant Tiger has Hamburger Helper on for $1.67 a box, but sadly my GT didn't have the specially marked boxes... But you can take that flyer to Walmart (that currently has them on for $1.87) and Price Match!  So for $1.67 I was able to get my Hamburger Helper, and $3 of FREE Hamburger!! 

So this is how I did it... I had coupons leftover from HH's last promo, of but HH and get a free bag of Green Giant Veggies... We took those coupons with us on our first trip, and grabbed 10 boxes of HH.. and 10 bags of GG veggies...

Then we returned home, cut out the coupons and instructions... Put the contents of the box (noodles and seasoning) and the instructions into a Ziploc bag (which we got free at London Drugs last week)... Then headed back to Walmart... Coupons in hand, and grabbed 10 more boxes (with coupons on them) and 10 packs of Hamburger.... I will do this now until the Specially marked boxes are all gone... As $1.67 is much better then $3 for hamburger!

The Medium Ground Beef is $3 a pack at Walmart for 500g and the Lean Ground Beef is $3.25 a pack So this time I got half Medium and Half Lean, so I can determine how much fattier the Medium is... and make my own decision on which is better... (I do like fattier burger for BBQ season, as it adds much more flavour)

For those of you who don't like HH, because it is full of sodium ... Toss the seasoning packs!  Keep the noodles... and get the hamburger for $1.67!  Remember there are always ways to save money, you just have to be SMART about how you shop.
