This was in reader deals, but let’s pull it out by itself. Most Jewel stores appear not yet to have Hormel Cure 81 half hams — I went to Villa Park and Lombard today with no luck, and Steve F. commented that only 2 out of the 5 Jewels he visited had it in stock. However, I’d suspect more stores will start to stock these as we get closer to the holidays, and we have a couple of weeks here.
- Hormel Cure 81 half hams are $3.99/lb. Look for the smallest hams you can find, running around $12-$14 each. Buy two.
- Use the BOGO store coupon from the booklet in today’s Chicago Tribune; also available in-store.
- Use two $3.00/1 manufacturer coupons from the Winter Feast booklet currently out in stores — the one with the roast on the front.
- Get two half hams for about $6-$8 after stacked coupons!

Saw them today in River Forest where there was just one $11ish and one over $15 so I decided to wait for a better combi
.
Did this in Park Ridge twice! First time got two for $3 and some change and second time around got two for $1.92….they were small hams but I’m excited!
I was just thinking about this deal on the way home tonight. If you have a $5/$25 coupon, this would be an AWESOME deal. Here’s my plan:
Buy 2 hams (about $12 each)
Buy 1 homelife paper towel $1 =$25
Use $5/$25
Use BOGO
Use (2) $3 coupons
Use $1 Homelife coupon =$1 for everything!!! YIPPEE!!!
let me know how it goes thanks
Went GREAT now that my store FINALLY has these in stock. I got 2 large bone-in hams and 4 small boneless & 2 paper towels for $6 total!! Should have been $75 or so!!!
They have them at both Elmhurst Jewels
LOL — I went to south elmhurst around 1015 and all they had left was a couple GIANT hams at over $40 each. Oh well, another day.
You are doing the same thing I did. Those are the bone in spiral hams. Look over in the other meat cooler with the prepackaged meat dishes like the Jack Daniels shredded meat and the smaller 81 cure Hormel boneless hams are there. Good Luck – my Jewel in Lockport had them tonight for the first time all week.
LOL that’s where I was. That’s the only Hormel Cure 81 ham that was in the whole store. Oh well, there’s still time.
The jewel on douglas in Oswego has the hams as well as the Jewel in Naperville on 34 near washington st.
My last two Jewel trips didn’t go well. Yesterday I found the hams ($9.35 and $9.80) in Hickory Hills. I had the B1G1 and two three dollar coupons. The two three dollar coupons were accepted but on the B1G1 only $6.35 of the $9.35 price was reduced. I was told that I could not get the $9.35 because the $3 coupon reduced the price of the ham.
This morning in Countryside my $1 homelife coupon was not accepted for the paper towels. I was told that paper towels were not cleaning products but paper products.
Struck out twice. Did I try to reason – of course. Just tired of the same old battles…..
Call corporate. They are wrong. The manufacturer coupon is a form of payment — they get reimbursed that $3.00 so it’s just like you handing them 3 $1.00 bills to pay for the ham, it does not reduce the price of the ham.
And the page with the cleaning coupon specifically SAYS paper towels on it
Jewel in Woodstock had a ton of the hams today, most were in the $11 or $12 range. Spent $5.50 for 2 and also was able to use the $5/25 in my basket. Got 2 of the free Old Orchard juices, thanks to your heads up with the $2/1 q. Thank you!
I got 2 at River Forest last night. $9.74 and $9.52, so $3.74 for both.
