I'm glad to hear that you got your catalinas without any problems. And thanks for the breakdown of what you bought with Q's as well. Now if only the bugs would iron out for the rest of the gals/guys that have had nothing but problems with this deal. How IS everyone else doing with this deal? Better? Worse?

I'm just getting to this deal. Honestly, I was going to skip it until I noticed how low I was on broth when I was putting soup in the crock pot this morning. Mine thankfully went off without a hitch even with my 3 kids in tow. I did go to the Albertson's a little further from my house as it is 2x the size of my closest one. It paid off as they were fully stocked with pallets of stuff in the aisles for this deal and starting to put it out for the next deal starting tomorrow.

(13) Progresso broth @ $1.66 each
(3) Lipton Tea to Go @ 2.50 each

Total: $29.08
Minus $14.75 in manu coupons and one $4 catalina from Glade deal
OOP including tax was 10.33

No problem with the $15 in cats spitting out -- woohoo!!!!

The Lipton I'm sending off for the $5 rebate on 3. What a money maker, and of course I'm set for broth for a while. LOL

Oh, and (1) Treetop Apple Juice 64 oz (coupon from ad this week of free juice with $25 order) --- zero cost

Can never have too much broth! BTW, where did you find the MIR on the Lipton? I can't remember where I saw it and now that I am looking for it, I can't find it. :shrug7:

On a tear pad at Albertson's about a month ago. It was attached to a display of the teas. It is just black and white text, no pictures, and is about 4 x6 I guess size?

I'm glad to hear that your last deal finally worked out for you. Yeah!!! I did one last deal today as well and my new catalinas didn't print. I am thinking it was because they were told to stop forcing the catalinas and to manually put them in no matter what. In the end, they told me that they couldn't give me the $15 that they owed me in catalinas. Instead, ... they gave me $15 cash. Can't beat that! Who doesn't love getting cash in lieu of catalinas. I mentioned that the ongoing catalina problems were not a good thing in that they are running similar catalina promos with the new ad. The cashier agreed and said they don't know what they're going to do. Not good.

I did 2 runs yesterday... all out of all... but figured out the problem was the BC potatoes were not included... they are in the ad, but not tagged at any of my stores.... 1st order was fine (no potaotes), but second one I got 4 boxes potatotes, spent 30.33 BQ including those and no cat....... manager checked and then "forced" the cats at a register using my dove shampoo....

I bought boxed mashed and scalloped potatoes in the deals that I did. It was only the last deal that I had problems getting the catalina. :shrug7: As for the "all" I hear you there. They ran out of stuff that I wanted too and so I had to improvise last minute and substitute other products and coupons. A pain, but so worth it.

grandmajoanne, sure I'll lend you that $15. It's been happily earned and deserves to be recycled into another deal.
