Albertsons NW: ad 1/7/09--1/13/09

[mommycia]

I am confused...this is going on today (with the exception of doubles)? Is this everywhere? Is it the same ad or what? I cant find an ad that says for today except last weeks ad that only has spend $10 save $3 instantly

[mommycia]

Also, what are the totals needing to be spent for the baby products and slimfast cats?

[TheWoman]

How many extra papers are you all getting for extra doublers??? I have gotten five and am wondering if I will regret not having more??

My store always has a stack of extra ads out. I will be grabbing a pile!

Just found another one!!!

6 Slimfast $33.00
- $8.40 cents man. coupons
- $6.00 doublers
- 3.06 Safeway coupon
= $15.54
get back $15.00 in cats
total .54 cents!!

Might be even better with the Safeway Coupon someone mentioned earlier...I at the moment cannot find mine!

Found it.....If I am reading it right...It would take another $3.06 off of all 6 since it is a limitless coupon...I have adjusted the above to reflect it!

Although the Safeway coupon would only work if it was the Optima shakes??

I don't think slimfast is part of the $15/$30. It is buy 3 get $5.

Also, sign up here to get a $2/1 and 2 $3/2 printables good on meal bars and shakes (actually 2x$2/1 and 4x$2/3 when you hit the back button )

Ok this is my first time doing doubles. On the coupon for the Pantene products, for example, it is $3/2. Will they "double" it by giving me any extra $1.00 or will they say sorry that is not doublable (is that a word??) because it is more than $1.00 face value? Does it matter if the coupons say DO NOT DOUBLE on them?

3) Lucky Charms $6.00 -$3.00 peelie on 3 - $1.00 doubler

Is Lucky Charms included? I was assuming it's only the ones pictured...???

This is the first time for all of us with Albies doubles. If they do it the way Safeway does it will just add the extra dollar, but we won't know for sure until people start trying it. If the coupons say DO NOT DOUBLE they probably won't double them.

Aarg! I totally forgot about the "do not double." I typically use IPs and they almost always say that. Must go re-calculate :(.

Transaction 1 for me in the AM

2) Betty Crocker Twice the blueberries $5.00 - 2 x .40 -.80 doubler
3) Honey Nut Cheerios $6.00 -$3.00 peelie on 3 -$1.00 doubler
3) Lucky Charms $6.00 -$3.00 peelie on 3 - $1.00 doubler
1) Downy $10.00 -$1.00 - $1.00 doubler
2) Bisquick $5.00 - $1.20 - .60 doubler ( I'm assuming that I won't be able to use a doubler on both of these since I have already used the 6 allowed per transaction)

Total = $18.60
get back $15.00 cat
grand total of $3.60

Not sure if I am going to add other stuff to make it $50.00 and use the 10 off of 50.00

There is also a Safeway LIMITLESS Super coupon in tomorrow's Safeway ad making Honey Nut Cheerios $1.50 (instead of the $2 that it will be at Albies...that would be another $1.50 savings).

Also, if they won't let you use 3 coupons for the $1 Albertsons doubles, why not just use the Safeway doubler with 2 of the Albertsons. It would work GREAT for your muffins since they are only $.40. Just a though! :)

Yes, the Safeway coupon is ONLY for the Opitma Slim Fast shakes. And another poster explained that the Slim Fast is part of a different deal where you will get $5 cat wyb 3. It's not part of the spend $30 get $15.

I am confused...this is going on today (with the exception of doubles)? Is this everywhere? Is it the same ad or what? I cant find an ad that says for today except last weeks ad that only has spend $10 save $3 instantly

The cat deal where you buy $30 worth of items & get $15 in cats and the baby deal wyb $25 in baby items & get $5 cat is working today. The Pampers sale price this week (ending today) is the same ($10) as the new ad starting tomorrow. That is how you can get 3 packs of Pampers for $30 (without any coupons...use coupons to make the price lower) and get $20 in cats back. The other items that are in this ad preview will be a different price until tomorrow's ad starts.

Looks like the Crest toothpaste & the Oral-B Advantage toothbrushes will be money-makers with the cat + doublers. After the $15 cat their "adjusted cost" is $1.25. There are .75 coupons for the crest, doubled to $1.50, and there are .75 or $1 coupons for the Oral-B, doubled to $1.50 or $2.
