September 3: Hen House

Hen House is doing a similar one this week. I just got back from doing it, and this is the first time they wouldn't double more than two like coupons for me, the cashier said it was because of the promotion, but it was still a good deal so I did it anyway. What i got:

I went to hyvee near me and they were all out of tombstone pizza's so i got a raincheck and 1 box of ronzoni

oop: .28
savings: 1.00

Walmart: wanted to price match the pizzas, but when i checked they didn't have the smaller tombstones, but they did have the tropicana 89 ounce for 4.27, much better than the sale price of 4.99 at price chopper so i got it there.

oop: 3.59
savings: 1.00 q

Decided go to OP and check a hyvee for the pizzas, which they had, but they were rather small, by this point i had to get them as ds really wanted pizza for lunch. So i got 5 so i could use the kraft coupon i had. Of course i forgot to use my free oscar mayer hot dog q w/this deal, darn it! We don't eat beef anymore, but those turkey dogs are rather good, especially when free.

    for the movie theatre/concession cash, there was a kellogg's promotion back in may at hyvee, that if you bought 12 select products you could mail in for a rebate for the movie ticket/cc, I payed about 20.00 oop for all the items after coupons and got the movie tickets too.

    for the mcdonald coupons, they were in the parade magazine in the newspaper a couple weeks ago.

    HTH. Just keep reading the boards, that's how i've found most of the good deals!
