Wish there was a store near me!
I need some diapers!!!

Anyone know of any stores near 24012 that would be doing this?
I hunted and only found this store in Illinois.

Id be willing to travel an hour or so for a trunk full of diapers at that price!

[...] I wrote earlier in the week about the catalina promotion Jewel has going on, I was asked by a reader if Albertson’s had the same promotion going on. [...]

I’ve never had a problem with the internet coupons at the stores in the city. Good luck in Niles! Hope it works!

Thanks for the tips! I will try the one in Niles at Dempster & Greenwood. I should have known better about the one in Skokie. Do you ladies know if these stores generally allow printable coupons? Because I have had zero luck getting any of the Jewels around me to accept them. I got the manager of the one at Golf and Milwaukee to accept them *once*, but she hassled me even about the ones I printed off the Jewel website! I mean, really now…

Liz,
I have been to all three of these Jewels for the Pampers deal with no problems whatsoever:
in Niles at Milwaukee & Oakton
in Niles/Lincolnwood(?) Touhy & Central
in Niles at Dempster & Greenwood
Good luck!

Liz – Have you tried the Jewel on Dempster and Greenwood in Niles? That one they have let me do this deal without trouble. I had trouble at the one at Golf & Milwaukee, but the manager eventually let me through.

That’s so frustrating. The one I went to that cheered me on was at Irving Park and Cicero (six corners). It’s not too far from the suburbs you listed if you want to try it!

Try the one in Evanston near McCormick. They are much nicer. I live in Skokie and work in PR and Skokie is one of the worst. Also visit jillcataldo.com for local issues on coupons. They make up rules as they go along. Corporate numbers are great to carry as are the coupon policies of the stores.

Fyi, the jewel’s near me now will not allow you to roll the catalina’s towards more diapers. In fact, they’ve coded their self-checkouts to require verification of ALL coupons used. It won’t let you cash out until a manager comes with a key, takes out the coupons, and looks over every single one. They wouldn’t let me use ANY coupons to get diapers, not even manufacturer’s, saying you can use coupons on a deal that gives you more coupons. I wish I lived near one of these nice stores where the cashiers cheer you on, but in Des Plaines, Skokie, and Park Ridge, Il, they just cop an attitude!
