So, I went today and bought 20 General Mills products in one transaction and only got on $10 CAT. I went to customer service and they said you can only do per transaction. =(

Thanks everyone for the info on freezings the biscuits. I have a coupole of questions.

1) Freeze them in the tube?
2) Freeze them in the tube, in a freezer bag?
3) How long before they unthaw?

Thanks!

I'm interested in how you freeze them too. I went Saturday to get HC soups and Pillsbury products. I'd love to freeze the Pillsbury stuff. I went back today and rolled my cats again to get some Hunts products and more General Mills stuff. What a great week for stock piling!

my aunt combined it last night with 5 fruit snacks, 5 nv bars, some cookie mixes, some pilsbury cookie dough and some warm delights. 20 items.. she got 2 $10 cats 3.50 and 3.50

You can't do these all in the same transaction. So you would have to do one transaction of the 10 general mills products and then do a 2nd seperate transaction with another 10 general mills products. I bought some Cookie Crisp cereal (there are .75 IP) and some cookie mix (can never have too much of it!), some cake mixes, some Toaster strudels, and some GRANDS biscuits.

Too many deals going on at once and my head is spinning and I messed up. I know you can do the Conagra deal and the GM deal together and get two $10.00 Cats because I did it yesterday. Well this morning I went in and wasn't thinking straight and bought 10 cans of HC soup and 17 cans of tomato sauce and only got one $10.00 Cat. Driving home I was trying to figure out what I did wrong and then it hit me that I did two of the same deals together. I am not happy about it. I had all of my transcations planned out and this was just a last minute transaction that I did. So I lost $10.00. The good thing is we will use the 17 cans of sauce so not a total loss.

I just got back and this is how i rolled ! lol

10 boxes of fruit snacks $20.00 - $3.00 in coupons
10- Hc soups $10.00 - 3.00 in coupons

total $24.00 after coupons - paid with $23.50 in cats
oop-.50 cents got back another $23.50 in cats !

I think i will do this one a few more times !
**** Also i got a copy of this coming weeks flyer allready !!***
highlights 10/$25.00 general mills with the $10.00 store coupon.
Purex is BOGO, nothing to great , but i havent gotten a chance to look.
If anyone is interested I can take pics of the flyer and post it let me know !

I ended up breaking my 10 BC fruit snacks down into two 5 BC fruit snacks and 5 Progresso to take advantage of the extra chance at 3.50 in cats. Just couldn't stomach using 10 and losing the extra cash.

We always want to know ahead of time. I didn't get to go out today, but the first chance I get I'll be begging for an ad from a nice manager, lol.

Today I purchased 20 GM items in one transaction, and DID get two $10 cats...I purchased 10 progresso soups, and various betty crocker products(warm delights, cookie mix, brownie mix). Not sure why it's not working for some...that's shaws for you

Good Evening. Today I purchased 11 cans of HC soup (shelf price = $2.50; sale price = $1) and used one $1/3 coupon. The $10 CAT did not print. Did I do something wrong? Also, on a separate note, can you use more than one of the $1/3 coupons in one transaction if you have the required number of items? I thought the fine print said something about one coupon per transaction (or something to that effect).

Yes, you sure can use more than one of those coupons in a purchase as long as you have the required amount of products.

Today, when I did the General mills deal together, I also did the Conagra deal with it and got the $10 for that. Shaws is so unpredictable at times.
