Dillons: not much this week 5/4

[irish_molly]

Don't you think that they put the items in their ads that they say are on sale to get the people who don't actually compare or know the prices of items to buy those items? My price book helps me so much in figuring out what really is a deal, but I see so many people walk around and grab all the stuff in the ad. Yea, the "regular price" is definitely not the usual regular price, but is still usually a good deal if your talking about those jacked up BOGOs that can be combined with two coupons (sausage this week). I agree...deceptive..but how they make their money on the uneducated shopper.

Very true on all counts! We know better, so we can recognize that 2/$5 is not a good price at all for a given item, when we know that we not only got it for 10/$10 a few weeks before, but also used coupons, and got it for pennies. It perplexes me to see some poor soul pay $100 for half a cartfull, and they think they got a good "deal," when they could have paid maybe half that with very minimal effort. I feel really bad for someone like that, especially if their family could benefit from shopping the way we do.

Some of the Kellogg's cereal boxes have codes for free stuff online. 3 codes gets you $5 concession cash at the movies, 6 codes for a disney movie pass, and there's some toy story merchandise. I bought 2 boxes of rice krispies 1.97 each - 1.50/2 coupon, 2 apple jacks 1.97 each -$1 on 2 coupon (coupon came out of a kellogg's box awhile back) got a $3 cat, so the cereal was $0.60 each and now I have 4 codes (worth at least $5 at the movies) Planning on going back for more. If you do 2 boxes in each transaction, they are as low as 0.22 each.

There are several items on the proctor & gamble deal that are not advertised in the ad. I didn't have time to make a note of them all though.


cover girl eye shadow (one color each) on sale for 2.24each before P&G deal
cover girl eye pencils w/sharpener 2.09 before P&G deal

buy 4 of these low priced items
-$2.50 on 2 cover girl product coupon
-$1 cover girl coupon
-$4 P&G
-$2 on cosmetics (this e-coupon was on my receipt, but I don't remember loading it and don't know where it came from. I don't know how many you have to buy to get it)

Can possibly get all 4 free.

( I will confirm this deal works after I do it this week.

I just did this on E Sunshine, the price is 2/$7.
They did not even have a space for the Odor Blocker BW, so I asked at the service desk, and was told that the eCoupon should work for the other varieties, and, if not, they would adjust it manually.
I bought 2 - High Endurance 3x Clean pure sport BW (UPC# 37000-39316) & 2 - Ever Clear pure sport ap/deo and the eCoupons took off automatically.
4 x 2/$7 = $14
-$3/2 BW eCoupon
-$3/2 ap/deo eCoupon
-$1/2 from 5/2 P&G
-$3.50 B1G1 5/2 P&G

I also got the Scrubbing Bubbles Extend-A-Clean for $7.99-$5 insert=$2.99, and the $3 cat printed. There were no signs out about this, but it worked a half hour ago. HTH
