Scenarios 3/25/09

[nomadicmommy]

Yes, I am starting to plan early! I plan to buy:

Cascadian Farms $2.50 each, $1/1 coupon doubled
Kashi products 20% off - I received as a RAOK some of the frozen Kashi tearpad coupons

and then I ordered a bunch of the free gum coupons to help my totals reach $25 (my husband chews tons of gum to keep from snacking at night)

What other good deals are there?

[ahockeymom]

any ideas of the prices of kashi at 20% off, is woodmans cheaper? Isn't GM cereal on sale?

[kswanu]

GM cereal is on sale. I think it's buy 6 boxes at regular price, get $10 off your order. I'm hoping Raisin Nut Bran is included in the deal. I believe you also get a free milk catalina.

[kswanu]

OH, if you got the Eat Better America home mailer, there is a coupon in there for $1 off 3 green giant boxed veggies and those are on sale for 89cents each this week, so after doubled 22 cents each!

The only items I looked at last Wednesday were the frozen meals, and they ranged in price from about $3.89-$4.29. I'm not sure what the Woodman's prices are, but unfortunately we don't have a car right now, so Copp's is my only choice :giggle2:

Does anyone know how much the frozen pizzas are?

I am doing the gm cereal deal really only for the milk. I still have a ton of cereal from the last deal, but my kids go through a box of this crap a day, so it won't last forever. Does anyone know if the milk deal stacks? I have a few pringles coupons left over that I will use up too. I saw pork for 1.77# so will find small packs for my hormel coupons

[deal05]

I received the betty crocker and eat better america home mailers along with inserts so I will be doubling a lot of the cereal ($1/1 and $1/3), frosting($1/2 or $0.50/1), cheerios snack mix(0.60/1), cookie pouches ($1/2), brownie mix($1/2), boxed vegetables($1/3). Will receive milk and box tops for purchasing 15 items.

Also GE Energy Smart compact are on sale for $1, using coupon for $1/1 expiring 3/31/09 thse will be free.

Double $1/1 Ken's salad dressing for Free dressing

Double $1/10 dannon yogurts for $0.30 yogurt

If the Kraft cheese includes the 2% I will be purchasing 4 for $8, double 2 $1/2 2% chesse coupons, and should receive $3 OYNO coupon...should be $1 for 4 bags/blocks of 2% cheese.

Also can double $1/1 coke 12pk. $2 after doubles. Not great but decent.

I think the wholly salsa is $2 and we have $1 coupons?

Hi Folks, I'm a little confused. :wavehi: I wasn't able to get the Sunday paper yesterday, so I feel totally lost about planning my grocery shopping this week. But I've noticed from your discussions in this thread that the deals seem to be identical to the ad that I got last week (I did the GM deal, Cascadian farms, Kashi, Green Giant frozen veggies, etc. last Wed.). So I'm wondering, are you guys all a week behind with your ads, or is this week pretty similar to last week's? It will help me a lot with my planning if I can just base it off of last week's ad again. Any help will be greatly appreciated! :smile:

[deal05]

It depends....these discussions are for most of the SE WI area. NE is usually a week ahead of us. The Sunday ad is very similar to the ad received on thursdays with a few other items added.

[CQintraining]

I was at PnS tonight and found a Kashi flyer with 5 coupons in it. (2) $2/1 frozen entree or bake product, $3/1 frozen pizza product, $1/5/1 frozen pocket bread product, $1.50/1 frozen waffle product. Maybe these can help with a deal.

It depends....these discussions are for most of the SE WI area. NE is usually a week ahead of us. The Sunday ad is very similar to the ad received on thursdays with a few other items added.

I'm from Oshkosh...I guess that's considered NE WI? Anyway, I was able to get a flyer from the store today, and yes, it looks like everyone in this discussion is a week behind our store. Last week, I was able to get 24 boxes of cereal, 2 64oz. bottles of TreeTop apple juice, 2 cream cheese packages, and 3 gallons of milk (I mean, the catalina for free milk) for $22! I did the GM deal 3 times, plus I got 4 boxes of Cascadian Farms cereal and 2 boxes of Kashi granola to bring my total to $25 for each transaction. I really am well-stocked on cereal now! :BigHand:

This week, the ad says that selected Kellogg's cereal are 6/$9.96, or $1.66 per box--and that's without any coupons! If the Kellogg's catalina deal is going on as someone posted recently (buy 7 boxes, get 3 coupons for free milk up to $4.xx...can't remember all the details), this could be an AWESOME deal for more stockup and free milk! However, in my store, the only tags I saw for the 6/$9.96 deal were for Hannah Montana cereal, Corn Flakes, Rice Krispies, and Cereal straws, so that kinda puts a damper on things.

Anyway, hope this is a help to someone!

[Deja Vu]

I was planning on doing Kellogg's but I may wait, and take a look at next weeks ad online jik, thanks for the heads up CherryBlossom. If I do Kelloggs I may do a couple of orders. I have quite a few 1/1's and .70 on ones Kellogg's and my head math took me down to about $8 bucks for 7 boxes of cereal/ get three milk.

I have Frees, and 3/1 Flowers winetags and am wishing to have Hyacinth.

I am doubeling 1/1 toaster strudle ip's, looks like minor overage.
Ziplock 1/1 Fresh Shield, expandable bottom if they are included in the 2/5- have multiples of this one.
Sweet Baby Rays 1/1
$1/6 Dannon cups blinkies w/ the buy 6 get one free blinkie for yogurt 7/$1.00-have multiples of this one.

My Pick N Save has Lysol products for B1G1 Free. I've got coupons for wipes for $1/1 , and $.75/1 toilet bowl cleaner, and $.50 off lysol all purpose cleaner. Then there's the lysol rebate for get $3.00 back on 3 different lysol products purchased, so I'll do that. That's a decent deal. I wish there were less restrictions on the double coupons(ie:have to purchase $25.00 after P&S card deductions, only double 5 coupons,etc). However, it's better than not having it at all.

I have a catalina for buy 3 boxes get 1 free milk Q, buy 5 get 2 milk, buy 7 get 3 milks---

I went and bought 7 boxes of Kelloggs and no milk Q's. I checked catalina and the sizes must be 12 oz or larger! These are the 9 oz boxes that were 6/9.96. I doubled all my 70 cent Q to make them 26 cents and used my $1 Q for the other two for 66 cents/box. Not bad, but I really wanted the milk freebie too.

Going back later..........

[GJohnson39]

I also found:

Red Gold Diced Tomatoes on sale for $1.05 each. With $1/2 Q doubled, = $.10/2.
Prego Pasta Sauce on sale for $1.69 each. With $.75 Cat doubled = $.19/1.
Nature Valley/Curves Granola Bars $2.25 each. With a $.75/1 and $.5/1 Q Dbld= $2/2.
Land o Lakes Buttery Spread - $1.50 each. With $.55 Q doubled = $.40/1.

Food Club shredded cheese was only $1.49 per 8 oz bag at Piggly Wiggly. I haven't seen a price this good at PNS without Q's.

[lilymyasmom]

Is anyone doing the dog treats deal? They are 2/6 pupperoni and milkbone. If you buy $15 worth you get $5 off next shopping trip. I have 5 $1 Q's so free treats for my dog this week!

I'm doing 4 transactions this week. 2 cereal, 1 dog treats, and 1 misc.

Good stock up week for me.

[kimfn]

had my best double days ever!

first trip- 6 boxes GM cereal and 2 bottle of Ken's dressing. Used the 3 $1/1 q's from eat better america and 2 $1/1 Ken's, plus 3 additional $.75/1 Chex from 3/15 ss. .05 discount for using a cloth bag... total was 3.30 and got a 3.50 milk cat!

Second trip

milk (3.29) took off the full 3.50 (SO buy a cheaper milk if can! I had it figured to the penny to get to $25 though, so the .20 overage was great!)
2 ken's dressing (minus 2- $1/1 doubled)
2 cascadian farms cereal (minus 2 $1/1 doubled)
2 Tree top apple juice 2/$4 minus $1/2 doubled)
Pack of gum (.99 minus 'free gum' from inserts)
bottle of triple sec 8.29

total pre q was $25.56. after q's -- 11.10!

[Cherryblossum7]

I'm tickled pink and giddy as a school girl! If you were able to print the $2/2 Naked Juice IP a month or two ago, PnS has the 10oz. bottles of Naked on sale 4/$5 this week. With 2 coupons, that makes them 4/$1, or $.25 each! :BigHand: These things are so expensive normally, so I'm just thrilled that I was able to get them for that cheap. I just wish I had had more than 2 coupons.

[joskypay]

Coke products were 3/10.98 (or 10.96 I forget so I will just say 10.98 for the sake of arguement) so I bought 3, doubled a 1 dollar coupon for my coke rewards making it 3/8.98, I wasnt sure if I could use my other coke rewards coupons and I was rushing, otherwise if I could have it would have been 3/4.98, good price for a 12 pack if it could work that way!
