I was afraid it might be you that the cashier was referring to. I just got back from BL Albies and it did work for me.

You may want to call Catalina since I did mine shortly after you and it did print!!!!

I got:

8 Pies (4 pumpkin, 2 apple, 2 dutch apple)
8 Breyers
4 Ragu
(also got some steak & tortillas)

Total OOP: 36.09 got back $15 OYNO (3-$5's compliments of GM, Unilever & KImberly CLark.)

Sounds like my DH, he has to have icecream every night. I may go back tonight and get more, I just don't know what I will do with that many pies!

Not trying to sound weird or anything, but if anyone finds themselves with more pies or ice cream than they have room for, please consider donating to your local food bank. Demand is really up this year, and many of them are getting holiday food 'baskets' together for Thanksgiving. If they have the ability to store frozen foods, I'm sure they'd love to get them! I want to do this cat deal today, but there's no way I can fit that many things in my freezer (I don't know where I'm going to put a turkey, LOL!), so I'm taking in 6 pies & Breyers this afternoon.

I am so psyched about this deal - thanks to all who posted that it's still working today! I haven't been this excited about a deal in a long time. I just hope I can find a store with that many pies & ice creams still available...

I might do the Folgers/Pillsbury/Smuckers $5/$20 deal with ice cream toppings ($1.50) I have assorted TP/booklet Qs, some of which would double I think. And the Crisco Olive Oil ($5) with the $1/1 insert & dispenser Qs.
If we get doubles:
Fleishmann's yeast ($1.29 still) with 50c/1, 40c/1 and 50c OYNO = MM
Zone bars $1.25 (55c/1) = 15c
various Quaker $1.67 & $2.50

I just did the pie/ice cream/ragu deal a few minutes ago. 8 pies, 8 ice creams, and 4 jars of ragu. I used 8 .75/1 coupons and my $15.00 catalina from last week and paid $8.08. Woo hoo! Thanks for posting this deal!

I did the deal this afternoon, too. Good news -- the $15 in cats printed. The bad news? I couldn't use any of my Breyer's coupons, and I forgot one of my Sara Lee's at home (I would have only been able to use 4). But my final price for 8 pies, 8 ice creams and 4 Ragus was $9.08 (I had $15 in cats to use, too).

One thing to note about the Save-a-Lot ips: they do not have unique numbers (a fault of e-centives software - mine were printed from different machines at different times). The cashier almost didn't let me use my Ragu coupons because they all had the same number on them (my Breyer's did, too, but she wasn't letting me use the coupons on free items). She had to ask a mgr for permission, and the mgr wasn't happy, but let me use them. They've been told to look for unique numbers. So, just an FYI that you might run into this when you shop, too.

Another possibility of a freebie with doublers, if your Albies has taken the attitude of doubling coupons that say 'do not double':
Mars candy bars are 2/$1. At the checkouts, there are blinkies for 50c/2 bars. So, 2 free bars w/ doubler & blinkie.

When I tried the deal earlier I didnt have time, so I just returned everything and took off. I just went back and redid it, but got different ice creams. I think that was the problem. Looking at my past reciept, 3 of my icecreams showed up as $3.19??? So if someones isnt working, try different icecream.

Glad you got it to work. Was there still plenty if I go back again tonight?
