GDA: B1G1 Tostitos generating $5 cat

mom_in_me · 06-30-2008, 12:36:11 AM

I've now done this twice (yesterday and today)--first time was a fluke and second was an attempt to see if I could recreate. I bought 4 bags of Tostito chips ($3.79 BOGO) and 2 jars of salsa ($2.50). Got the 2 salsas free with the tearpad Q (there's tons at the store in front of the chips) and then 2 of the chips free because of the bogo. A $5 cat spit out...meaning the net cost was around $2.50 for 4 bags and 2 salsas! Don't know when it ends?? Or when it started?? But it worked today ...

I don't have any qs for free salsa but I wondered will it work if I just purchase the chips?

I have seen a tone of the qs for free salsa taped right on the bags of chips .. take another look or ask the mgr. .. I also notice a display of chips where the soda is in my store and there were the free salsa qs there as well. good luck

Awesome! This worked for me yesterday, and I plan on doing it a couple more times today.

My store had tons of tearpads near all the chips and even a display in the entryway.

Thanks for this!

That's great! I'm so happy to hear it's working for others as well. Can you confirm whether or not it works today (since I never saw anything official, I have no idea when this starts or ends and I keep worrying I've missed my chance)? Of course, 4 bags of chips and 2 salsas for $7.50ish is nothing to cough at, even without the cat...but I'm spoiled

I would think it would work...I would probably get 6 bags of chips just to be safe?? I don't know how many you need to buy to trigger the cat, but I've used 6 products each time (4 chips, 2 salsa).

mom-in-me: I'm going in about an hour and will post if it works when I get back.

I wonder if this is similar to the Stop N Shop Cat from a few weeks back: Frito Lay Catalina

I know that last week it was buy $15 worth of fritos products (including tostitos) and get $5 oyno. Maybe they extended it. But it worked for me last night so I am not complaining.
