Copps/PickNSave/Rainbow ~ Special Sale: Copps/PNS 3 Day Ad

[JLL]

SE Wisconsin gets a 3 day ad starting today and a new ad starts Sunday and is supposed to go until Thanksgiving(according to a store manager I spoke with). Sometimes these 3 day ads will carry over some of the sale items into the next week ad, I was really hoping the Kellogg's 4/$10 and 2 free gallons of milk would carry over to next week for Wednesday doubles, since I have many $1/1 q's for the products. Well, the manager showed me the ad that starts Sunday and no Kellogg's deal. Instead, they're doing a deal with GM cereals, nature valley products, etc 4/$10 and get 1 gallon of milk for free. I rarely see $1/1 GMcereal q's so it won't be as good of a deal. I hope the Granola Nut Clusters are included. There are $1/1 q's out there, so that would help...

Thanks for alerting those of us (myself) who don't always remember to check the dates of the sale add. Makes me feel better about missing doubles this week.

I was, and still am, pretty confused about the whole situation with that. How am I supposed to plan my week and trade for the coupons that I am going to need if I don't know what the sales are going to be!!! ARG!!!!

Hello! Newbie here. I was wondering if the 3 day ad is the same up here in NE Wisconsin? I only buy the Sunday paper so i don't think i ever get to see this ad. I know it's not available on their site. Is there anywhere I am able to view this? Maybe it's not the same up here???? Does the ad always come out on Friday? Thanks!

Our 3 day ad was for last week Thursday-Saturday. It came out in our mail on Tuesday, d/t Veterans Day on Wenesday and no mail delivery. PNS
tends to run these short ads around holidays before they bring out their special Sunday-Saturday ads, which usually are extended until the following week's holiday. I'd expect we'll see this around Christmas as well.
The typical PNS ad in SE Wisconsin runs Thursday-Wednesday, and is a week behind the NE Wisconsin ad. Hope that helps!

Just wanted to let you know that the PnS in Kenosha (SE WI) will match other stores Turkey price. You just need to bring in the ad. Wish I would have checked on this instead of hearing about it when I checked out with my turkey. Live and learn

So our ad up here you don't get until the following week? Am I understanding this right? Our ad used to run Th-Weds until a couple years ago. Maybe longer. I think I would have to do some research as to when we would have this type of ad in our paper. I know that Festival does something similar. I'll ask around. Thanx.

Yes, we are a week behind NE Wisconsin with the PNS ad. It's kind of nice, because we get a sneak peek of what's coming, so we can get our coupons in order..

Oh man i miss festival! Pecan encrusted chicken breast and burgandy spoon roast YUM!

I knew nothing about this special ad till i got to pns and got to the register and none of the deals were working cause i had the wrong ad when i was planning. :(. I was in panic mode and just kept checking out. spent like $60 when it should have been like $25! i was sick about it but lots of people spend more than that in a week so that makes me feel better.

that was the first time i went in the store before 10 i might never do that again lol so many people!
