Did anybody try this with Cocoa Pebbles? Not on the list to qualify but my son likes them best! Just wondering if it will work also...

[tealover]

Played it safe and only got the Fruity Pebbles, when the cat printed it says "Buy Post Cereal (10oz or larger) between 2/26 - 3/21". It didn't specify any particular items. Now I wonder if I should have bought 4 fruit and 1 cocoa to see if I got the $3 or $4 catalina. If anybody tries this let me know!

I bought 2 Fruity Pebbles, 2 Honey Bunches of Oats, and 1 Raisin Bran and only got the $3 catalina. I'm wondering if Raisin Brain isn't a part of this deal since it is a Kellogg's product?

Just wanted to give the heads up of what happened to me for those of you getting ready to do this deal!

Yeah, this catalina is only for Post products, so that would explain why it only credited you for buying 4.

Thanks for the reply, just wondering why Raisin Bran is on the list of participating products then?

For some reasom I'm thinking there are two different kinds and/or brands of Raisin Bran, or maybe its called Raisin . . .:shrug7:

At any rate is this a double dip then? Are these part of the buy 5 save 5 deal? and then get a cat besides? Just like the fruit roll-ups. Mmm, now I got some more plannin to do:giggle2:

[leeannie8]

Server18, you're right - Post does have a Raisin Bran and I totally bought the wrong one. Yes this is a double dip between the buy 5 save $5 and catalina promo. I love it!

I'm lost on the double dip. Would you lay it out for me pretty please. :smile:

[leeannie8]

They are offering a promo of buy 5 get $5 at check out. If you pair this with the cereal listed above, then you can also get a catalina.

My scenario should have been:
Buy 2 Fruity Pebbles = $3.00 after instant discount
Buy 2 Honey Bunches of Oats = $4 after instant discount
Buy 1 POST Raisin Bran = $2 after instant discount

I used a $1/2 fruity pebbles Q, a $1/2 Honey Bunches of Oats Q and a $2/1 printable Raisin Bran Q. Cost OOP = $5, get $4 catalina or like $.20/box after catalina!!!

For some reasom I'm thinking there are two different kinds and/or brands of Raisin Bran, or maybe its called Raisin . .The Kellogg's Raisin Bran is the one that comes under the 5/$5 promo, but the Catalina is Post cereals only. Post also has a Raisin Bran so that is where the confusion is.

On the plus side I found that by going through the shop online feature of the Safeway website there seem to be a lot more qualifying cereals than the ones listed in the ad!

Edit: Actually according to the website the Post Raisin Bran is in the 5/$5 promo also, it's listed as one of the $1.50 items, the Kelloggs is $2.

[tealover]

Correct, they both give a double dip with catalina promos and the store $5/5 promo. They also couple with ecoupons from cellfire/shortcuts/safeway coupon link, this makes for multiple trips and great deals!

The buy 5 get $5 at the register is over - correct? TIA

[server18]

The date in the OP says 3/21 so it should be good to go

The buy 5 get $5 off promo is over but the cat promo is good until 3/21. hth
