Default Re: A scenario that might work for promo

$12.00 - 4 Kraft Cheese Singles
$8.00 - 4 Crystal Light
$5.40 - 4 Kraft Dressings
$4.90 - 2 - $1 +/- produce (to use tearpads wyb 2 kraft dressings) (I added in more produce so my coupons would not produce overage).
$2.90 - 14 Kool Aids

Sub total: $47.80

I'll use the following Q's:

$5/$40 - from a newspaper clipping (-$5)
4 - $1/1 Kraft Mayo with olive oil Q's (-$4)
4 - Publix $1/1 wyb Oscar Meyer and Kraft Singles (-$4)
2 - Free Oscar Meyer wyb 3 (-$7.40)
4 - Free Kraft Singles wyb 3 (-$12.00)
2 - Free Crystal Light wyb 3 (-$8.00)
2 - Free Kraft Dressing wyb 3 (-$5.40)
2 - $1/1 produce wyb 2 Kraft Dressings (-$2)

$47.80 in credits

Out of pocket: $-0-

If you don't have a $5/$40 coupon, you could just get $2 worth of produce and your out of pocket would be under $2.

Now I plan to send in that receipt (I normally break up my transaction so that the coupons total less then $50 which is the point where a supervisor must come over and input their supervisor's code to enter each and every coupon after $50 - management has asked me to break up my orders) plus grocery receipts showing $123.00 more in groceries pre-coupons and I should be set to get the $30 gas cards.


I love buying the little boxes of Cheerios for $.50 and using $.50/1, $1/2 or $1.50/3 coupons on them. Great way to add to your pre-coupon total. Perriar water @ $1 (use $1/1 blinkies) also comes to mind as does Sundown vitamins $6/2 (green flyer coupon), Revlon Beauty tools $2/1 (green flyer coupon).

Here's how I figured the coupons. First my abbreviations:

Mayo - Kraft Mayo
OM = Oscar Meyer hot dogs
CH = Kraft cheese singles
KA = Kool Aid unsweetened pack
CL = Crystal Light
KD = Kraft Dressing

1 OM wyb 3 Mayos
2 OM BOGO sale
3 OM wyb 1 Mayo & 2 KA (kool aid)
4 OM BOGO sale

1 CH wyb 3 OM's
2 CH wyb 1 OM & 2 KA's
3 CH wyb 3 KA's
4 CH wyb 3 CH

1 CL wyb 1 CH & 2 KA's
2 CL BOGO sale
3 CL wyb 3 KA's
4 CL BOGO sale

1 KD wyb 3 CL's
2 KD BOGO sale
3 KD wyb 1 CL & 2 KA's
4 KD BOGO sale


I'm sure there are better scenarios out there - care to share yours?
That's outstanding I did want to mention, I think the kraft singles are on sale for $2 this week, you have them as $3. I won't quite be doing it this way b/c I need other stuff anyway to get to $150. But I will definately be using some of your scnearios in mine. I have a $5/$30 and a $10/$50(w/d) to work with.
