Free/cheap 8-16-8-22 UPDATED

My experience is that sometimes both the shortcuts and the cellfire come off, sometimes only one or the other and you have to do a second round for the other. So if you have limited coupons I would do one transaction check if they both came off or only one before proceeding to the next. Also, some items have two sets available on SC so you can do those twice, but in separate orders. These include for me the BC brownies, hamburger helper, fiber one bars, BC cookie mix, Honey nut cheerios.

I am sorry this is so confusing, it is a nightmare to put together. AND remember to factor in buying in units of 10...off for a free tylenol from previous CVS deals......

Can I use Publix, Target, etc..q's at Kroger?

[colleenh28]

Can I use Publix, Target, etc..q's at Kroger?

The coupon for soda was found at publix but it is a manufacture coupon..not a publix coupon. Sorry.I don't think kroger takes competitors coupons.

[PeachySteph]

cheerios were not included in the mega event

From what I saw there were maybe 5 cereals included? Not many were ones my family would eat.
trix was definitely one, but only the small box.

[BigDog]

BC Warm Delights Included. $1.49 -$1(.50/1 doubled) - .50 CF = -.01

REGULAR Cheerios were included (small box).

[kwm537]

The warm delights are also included in this mega event here's the deal I did
1.99 x 10 = 19.90
-$5.00 mega sale = $14.90
-10.00 (.50 q doubled - 8/9 GM) - 4.90
-.50 Cellfire = 4.40
-.50 Shortcuts = 3.90

This comes out to 39 cents per which isn't bad
