Copps/PickNSave/Rainbow ~ Good Deal: Copps/PNS Kelloggs/Keebler $10 off 8 Products thru 7/8/09

[deal05]

I was unable to go on wednesday but many of the frosted flakes boxes I bought included $5 worth of coupons (5 - $1 coupons)

$1/1 Mini-Wheats
$1/2 Nutri-grain Bars
$1/1 Cereal (apple jacks, frosted flakes, etc)
$1/2 Pop Tarts
$1/produce wyb cereal
$1/Milk wyb cereal
$1/1 special k
$1/1 Danactive
$1/1 Danimals
etc.

I noticed there were 3 different coupon books so only 5 coupons in each box but included some of those above.

For those of you who are wondering if Copps/PnS gives overage, I'm here to tell you, they DO. Totally by accident, I meant to add enough stuff to my order to cover the overage from the cereal deal, but in my rush, I guess my math was a little off. Imagine my surprise and the cashier's when the register said my total was $-.95 and out popped the change from the automatic dispenser! Lol, now that's what I call a good shopping trip!

I've had this happen to me once by accident too and it makes me very nervous. I think we are all better off to actually buy things to cover the overage. If everyone started getting actual $$ back, it raises a huge red flag which will cause employees/managers to look into it and it will ultimately end even the overage that is now subtly applied to our other groceries. So always try to buy enough other items to "eat" the overage and not call attention.

Well,
I was able to get 140 boxes Kelloggs cereal, and 80 boxes of the 12 count poptarts all in one order. With coupons it will be $96.00 TOOP, BUT because my coupons didn't arrive in time, I had to buy the stuff w/just the COPPS $10 off each 8. Right now I am $204.00 OOP (received the 6 whatever they are called for a $10 gc, since I paid over $200), BUT they are going to honor my coupons when they come in!!!
YIPPEE!!

ITA. It would be a blast to have money come out every time I shopped at Pick, but if I did that kind of stuff, the cashiers eventually WOULD notice and it would be stopped. Always take enough items to cover your overage. Grab candy bars if you have to.

I'm not sure if this deal is going on @ pns still.. but if it is, instead of buying 8, you can buy 2 more (and not worry about overages :P) AND do this MIR? Buy any 10 kellogg's and their participating brand in single transaction, and receive $10 MIR.

Here's the information page from kellogg's Kellogg Company - Fuel for School

Is this deal still going on?
TIA

No, the deal was done last week. I think Kelloggs is 4/$9 this week so only .25 with double coupons and if you buy 10 boxes you can still do the mail in rebate. I used all my coupons last week, though.
