Harris Teeter ~ Good Deal: Quaker True Delights 7 boxes for 5 CENTS Deal Week of 3/3

[momto8kiddos]

Today when I was shopping I noticed that not only are the Quaker True Delights on sale for 2/$4.00 but there is a special deal on them. Buy 7 and get $3 off instantly.

It only works once. So if you buy 14 you won't get $6 off.

My store accepts more than 3 identifical coupons so this is how the math worked out:

$14.00 (7) x $2.00
- $10.05 (7 x $0.75/1 doubled)
= $3.05
- $3.00 off instantly
= $0.05

If you store will only double three as per their policy,

$14.00 (7) x $2.00
- $6 (3) x $0.75/1 doubled
- $3 (4) x $0.75/1 NOT doubled
= $5.00
- $3.00 off instantly
= $2.00 ($0.28ea)

Somebody check my math 'cause it's not my strong suit.

Best price I've seen on granola bar thingies in a long, long time.

Awesome deal and I was thinking of skipping HT this week. Oh well....I'm off to find some q's.

Does anyone know what products are included in the Quaker promo?

The policy says "3 like items" - some stores interpret this to mean 3 like coupons but some shoppers have successfully pointed out to store managers the fact that it is like items not like coupons so you need to make sure not to get more than 3 of one type of granola bars to make sure you stay within the policy and then:

7 boxes x $2 ea = $14.00
minus 7 coupons for .75/1 doubled = $10.50
minus $3 promo
= .50 for 7 boxes

If your store interprets the policy as 3 like coupons and will not budge on their interpretation:

$14.00
minus (3) .75/1 coupons doubled = $4.50
minus (4) .75/1 coupons not doubled = $3
minus $3 promo
= $3.50 for 7 boxes (.50 per box)

Sorry, momto8kiddos, your math was a little off - still a great deal, thanks for sharing!

Thanks for posting...I had missed this one somehow!

Just tried this deal at the HT at Matthews Festival. Didn't show on my receipt. The cashier thought it would print a $3 coupon w/my receipt. It didn't. Had to go to CS and get my $3.

I did this the first day is started and got 3 boxes of instant oatmeal packets and 4 boxes of Quaker squares cereal. Worked out to be about $7 total after the $1 Qs for everything and the $3 off (which the manager had to manually take off). $1/box isn't the best, but good enough for me - that stuff is good and my DH and DS blow through it like water!

LOL, that would NOT be a surprise! But actually, this time it is correct since my store doesn't enforce their rule about how many identical coupons they double. But I'm glad you did the math for stores that don't.
