Re: Safeway: Joint Juice MM w/Catalina exp. 10/18 Since the cat is a mfg. cpn and it's requirements are buy 7 get $5 off you shouldn't use addtl. mfg. cpns. Also to maximize this deal I have read that there is an IP out for $1/2. I would start with the lowest amt. which I think is 4 x $1.39 = $5.56, use 2 $1/2 IP pay $3.56 oop get $5/7 and $3 cats. Then buy 7 x $1.39 = $9.73 plus small filler to use 2nd cat, use $5/7 cat and $3 cat pay $1.73 + price of filler and tax, get $5/7 and $10 cats. Then get 7 x $1.39 plus $5.27 in groceries = $15.00, use the $5/7 and $10 cats pay tax. Rinse and repeat. Your oop will be $5.29 plus filler plus tax on each purchase. It will take 4 transactions because of the filler and tax to break even and have a MM.
It would look like this:
1. 4 x $1.39 = $5.56 - 2 x BOGO IP
$2.78 + tax
2. 7 x $1.39 = $9.73
$.25 filler = $9.98 + tax (maybe gum or candy bar or? for filler)
- $5/7 cat = $4.98 - $3 cat
$1.98 plus tax
3. 7 x $1.39 = $9.73 misc. groc. = $5.27
total $15.00
- $5/7 cat = $10.00 - $10 cat
0 + tax
At this point you have paid $4.76 + tax oop but received $5.27 in free groceries. So transaction #4 will be the MM depending on how high your tax is. hth
