Didn't see this before, but maybe I missed it - can we roll these oyno cats on the same deal?? Like, use the $4 cat to buy 8 more cans of hunts and get another $4 oyno? I want to get the pork loin that goes on sale tomorrow with my $8 in cats from earlier this week, but I also still want 8 more cans of Hunt's. I know sometimes you can, sometimes you can't - has anyone else rolled these?

Thanks!

Feel free to roll those cat. They will roll.

So it is confirmed that you can do more than one of the HN/Hunts cats in one transaction? I have a few of the HN q's to use and I was hoping not to have to do several transactions!

Confirmed! I got 12 popcorn, 8 hunts, 6 manwich plus a bunch of other stuff. Paid $16.52 and got 5 cats! I am so glad someone tested this! I get so burnt out doing multiple transactions!

I had a rather crazy day. It started off trying to get the right amount of cats added with the raincheck on the HN. That didn't go well when I tried to explain everything and reason I should get those because they messed up and didn't fill my order as promised. I then got accused of fraud because I said I should receive a cat for each $10 I spend. I question how it was fraud and she something about limits which no limits were ever mentioned or anything. They gave me $10 gc for my trouble which I didn't even remotely suggest.

Then I pick up the items they did set aside for me and check out with no problem. I did two deals of tomatoes in one transaction and both cats printed. I used those cats on the Manwich transaction which consisted of four deals and those printed no problem. The cashier, which really is customer service was great.

I went straight out to my van and then figured out my next order of business. Different cashier, excited about my savings and used several $4 cats got cats back except I did two Stickerz in one transaction and only one cat printed. I went to the service desk. My first cashier was there and did the refund and rebuy no problem, but said she got "in trouble" for giving me more than one cat and using more than one. So I had her clarify if I should have done multiple transactions and she said no the Asst. Manager said I should only get one cat per day. :sad:

I decided to finish my shopping another 30 miles north because I called earlier and they still had the HN. So I go there and get my HN, plus shelf price was higher, , also picked up some of the other things. Did two transactions, cashier accepted and delivered cats without so much as blinking. Put things in the van then go back in to get a few other things on sale and not on sale. Go to pay with three cats and the cashier says it is one per customer, but then took all three. I said, I would have done separate transactions if I would have know it would be a problem and that seemed to be okay with her. Hmmm Thought I was saving us both the extra trouble, but guess not.

So that was my experience and I'm trying not to envy those of you with multiple friendly stores. I'm also trying to figure out how in the world am I going to fly under the radar next week with all the colgate palmolive products.


I totally apologize if I went about this all wrong. I don't know when to speak up and when to keep quiet. Maybe I should just stick to smaller amounts of the deals and just stock up little by little since GE seems to run the deals often. I guess I just feel an urgency to be prepared.

funnyface= you gonna have one of those moments..ok days! lol
i will have a whole six months pass by..on getting big orders and everything running smoothly..then one day..or week you seem to run into a day that they decided to put anticouponers/antiCheap cashiers/CS people lol

You know how scared i was that was goin to run into a problem with this week because i needed a total of 200cans of manwhich? lol i didn't even have to preorder..the two stores actually had cases staked high of it!
i had to shop for my SIL and my inlaws. tonight i had to pick up the rest of the cans..so i can have some myself lol they didn't bat an eye..

i did go to the howland one first because they have a rep of keeping a lot of stock for sales..i only took one trip in there..i used a free coupon and they had a problem about it being NED coupon. once i have to speak to a manager..i count myself done for the day lol
but when i went back into the truck my DH said he will drive me to the austintown one so i can use up all my coupons.
woohoo! i got all that i planned!!

Thanks for the help everyone! I stopped at the Sleepy Hollow GE last night and was able to get 12 pkgs of HN, 12 boxes of popcorn and 6 bottles of soda for a total of $6

I love impressing the cashiers with my savings!

lifeskills13 200 cans?! LOL See this is what I'm talking about. I get a small fraction of what others get and I get the evil eye. LOL Thank you for sharing your experience is not always hunkydory; it helps. I'm still smiling at 200 cans of Manwich too. Things that amuse me...

Sounds like you have a fabulous hubby!

You said once you have to talk to the manager you consider yourself done for the day. Funny thing is in my gut I knew not to discuss those non-existent hotdogs and cats before I purchased my other items. What was I thinking...
