Shaw's Catalina Promo Spend $30 Get $15 OYNO -various products 1/2-1/8

[heyaheather]

Sorry for the 3 posts in a row, but this just needed to be added!

BOLO for the Coors MIR for $7.50 off a $30 purchase of Tostitoes etc....and SODA! If you're doing a couple transactions of Coke products, you could spend $10 OOP (I think) and get back $7.50! Now that's a sweet deal!

Could someone please help me as to why the cats did not print? I bought the following:

4 Prog low sod chicken & wild rice Reg price 2.50 ($2 on sale)
2 Golden Grahams 12 oz Reg price 3.29 ($2 on sale)
1 Bisquick Original 40 oz Reg price 3.79 ($2.50 on sale)
1 GM Multigrain Cheerios 9 oz Reg price 3.99 ($2 on sale)
2 Yoplait Kid Drink-Mixed berry 6 pk Reg price 3.29 ($2.50 on sale)

PreSale Total: 30.94
Sale Total: 21.50
Total after cp: 14.30
rcvd no cats: :(

The Manager re-rang the whole thing again but replaced the 2 Golden Grm with
2 Cocoa Puffs and the 3 cats printed. Did anyone buy the Golden Grm? I checked the list and confirmed that Golden Grm should work on this deal. I would like to do a couple of deals with the Golden Grm. I got two boxes of the Golden Grm and my kids really love it. Thanks guys!!

I have gotten golden grahams 3 times so far. Worked for me. maybe something wrang up a few cents less than shelf price?

[heyaheather]

I think you figured out that the Golden Grahams are the thing that are not working @ your store. It's a PITA, but just go to the service desk or talk to a manager/front end supervisor to get them to print. I doubt they'll rework the items @ your store that work/don't work for just tomorrow.

Thanks for all your responses!! You guys are awesome! Happy New Year!

Heather, I went and priced as much as I could last week in prep for the sale. We went on Friday, got our cocoa-puffs at $4.19 shelf price, got our cats, etc. Then boom all of a sudden they are $3.19?! Like I said, I did my little drama thing (to myself, and in my head of course). So for my last trip, I am ready and "go ahead, I dare you to lower them prices, I'm ready". LOL

I just never saw that coming, it really surprised me, so now I am wondering if they are going to raise the prices after the sale?

Shelf prices:
$4.99: Cascadian granola cereal
$3.99: Muir Glen sauces

There are coupons for both in recent papers, as well as on the internet.

I might do 4 cereals & 3 sauces: shelf $31.93, sale price $23.33 minus $7 in coupons.

The OOP expense will be $1.33, but I think it's worth it! Or you could combine it with some Bisquick or muffin mix to make a profit.

I just heard from someone else that the Muir Glens do not seem to be working. Proceed with caution!

[slippies46]

I bought the Muir Glens. I bought 6 of them at the sale price and 2 pantene at the sale price. Total was $30.00. I used 1 $3.00 coupon for the pantene. I used 6 coupons for .75 ($1.50 doubled). My OOP was $18.00. No cat printed. I went to customer service and got my cat..so out of pocket was $3.00, which to me was a good price. 6 Sauces and 2 Pantene.
