It's a great week for deals at both Harris Teeter and Lowes Foods, along with more great prices on fruit at Aldi.

At Harris Teeter, you can't beat the 77-cent ice cream, the 49-cent Entenmann's doughnuts and the 67-cent Kashi entrees!

At Lowes Foods, there's a new sheet of in-ad coupons that are good until Sept. 27. These coupons, when paired with insert coupons, Internet print coupons and Lowes Foods digital coupons, will yield some great deals over the course of the month. Be sure to get yourself an extra copy at the store this week because after that, they'll disappear from the stores. Or, you can do as I usually do, and just have the cashier key in the coupon and keep your sheet of coupons intact. I especially like the 10-cent Old El Paso tortillas and the 25-cent cake mixes and frostings.

As always, read on for a store-by-store breakdown of all the deals. And this week, more than ever, please share the deals you find at Lowes Foods. In some cases, the possibilities are endless so I'd love to hear back from you.

The sales and deals are a bit light because of the holiday weekend but whenever stores are giving you chocolate, it's a great deals week in my book! And that's exactly what's going on at CVS this week with Air Delights candy bars.

Other freebies and/or moneymakers include: Carefree pantiliners at CVS and Rite Aid, Crest toothpaste and Renu contact lens solution at Rite Aid, and Mitchum deodorant at Walgreens.

Procter & Gamble has got a new coupon booklet out that it will mail to your home.

This time around, the Home Made Simple booklet has $35 in coupons inside, many of them of higher value than you find in the monthly coupon inserts in the newspaper.

To get the coupons, you must register to be a part of the P&G Everyday Solutions program, which will also make you eligible for occasional product samples. A win-win!

It wouldn't be Friday without a few freebies. So let's get busy.

With Labor Day weekend approaching, this week's grocery deals have a definite picnic theme. There are lots of sales on condiments, hot dogs and hamburgers, buns and other cook-out fixings. BOGO deals dominate the circulars, along with a handful of B2G3 deals tossed into the mix. Lowes Foods has two freebies: KC Masterpiece barbecue sauce and Planters peanut butter. But my favorite Wednesday deal has to be the Cheerios at Harris Teeter, which are just 59 cents a box with a little coupon-stacking magic. Read on for all the details on the Cheerios deal and a store-by-store breakdown of the rest of Wednesday's top deals.

It's time for a little housekeeping in couponland.

With just two days left until the end of the month, here's a handy check list of things to get accomplished if you want to stay on top of the deals:

How does (more) free peanut butter, 15-cent pasta,  97-cent produce deals and milk under $3 a gallon sound to you?

Those are among the best deals I found in this week's grocery circulars. Here's a store-by-store breakdown:

When you can shop for free - or the stores pay you to shop - you know it's a good week for deals. This week, you can pick up a free Schick razor at CVS and free hand sanitizer and free topical pain relievers at Rite Aid. And Walgreens will pay you to buy Colgate Pro-Relief Sensitive toothpaste. At Kroger, you'll pay just 18 cents for Dial soap. Read on for all the best Sunday deals.

The deals are plentiful this week with lots of good sales. But, if I were forced to pick one store to shop at this week, it would have to be Harris Teeter, which has tons of BOGO, B1G2 and B2G3 deals. Many of the bargains have a back-to-school theme with lots of breakfast and easily-packed lunch foods on sale. But there's also a lot of meats and seafoods on sale, too, for you folks who don't like the packaged products.

At the other stores, I especially like the $1.99 butter e-offer at Lowes Foods as well as its 3-day sale over the weekend. And if you have the .55/1 coupon, the Almond Breeze milk is a good deal at $1.40. At Food Lion, chicken leg quarters are 59 cents per pound and store-brand 2-liters of soda are just 73 cents each. And finally, at Aldi, the prices on summer produce continue to be good with peaches, plums and nectarines all under $1 a pound.

Read on for a store-by-store breakdown of good deals. And remember, these are just the deals that caught my eye. Please chime in with the bargains you spotted. Couponing is definitely a team sport!
