Kraft Dressing - PRICE CHECK!

[shopnagain26]

I went on Monday and did this deal at two stores. The bottles were $3.55 each. The coupon for Free dressing is up to $3.20 so had to pay .35 for two bottles. Ok, not bad.
I went again yesterday to same store and they were marked $4.09! I had planned on doing the kool aid deal today, but now I'm thinking I'd be better off just getting them at Wal Mart rather than pay almost a buck each!
What are they priced at YOUR store?

[mfaust]

$3.55 for the regular kraft
$3.39 for the Kraft good seasonings

Both were B1G1 today.

But this week with the B1G1 it would make them $0.45 each - how cheap are they at Walmart?

Better come out here to Springville - we're always less w/ SWM across the street!
$2.85 reg kind
$2.95 goodseason (REAL good w/ olive oil!)

Wow, that is quite a difference! And I'm only about 15-20 minutes up the expressway!!!

Is that Tops coupon friendly?

[Giggles]

No REAL problems. An occassional dumb cashier, takes a sec, but it usually ends in my favor.
PLUS, no rediculous lines or NASTY cashiers / mgrs!
They'll try to figure it out & help you - not yell COUPON FRAUD! lol
Once you get the specials at Tops tho, STOP
Go across the street to SWM for everything else.
ie Tops advertised the ChefBoyArDee on sale at 10/$10 - SWM is ALWAYS 90-some cents. If you have a coupon to dble, great, but if you don't, it's better.
Their store brand foods are cheaper & better too.
AND, you can comp any ad price!!! I've driven into the city for store specials only to find the store shelves empty! At SWM, I walk in w/ the ad & they have it.

Compared to the store I take my mom to in OP, literally 90% of the items are LESS.
We even get a "Springville ONLY" ad.
Goes to show what a little competition will do!!!!!!!!!!
When the Heinz vinegar HTs were out, MY store was $1.59, so a .75 c/o made it .09... in OP, they were like $1.67.
That may not seem like a lot, BUT, that's 8-cents on just one item... figure out how many items you buy! The more expensive the item, the bigger the hike. When it was the Nutri-Grain bar special last year, ($3.xx) HERE, I came out paying 9-cents per box, in OP it was .34!!! Same now w/ the dressings - same b1g1 sale, but NOT the same price.

Hamburg has better coupons and a bigger nicer store, but I'll take this one anyday.

TRY IT .... YOU LIKE IT lol
Just don't take all the specials!

The Kraft dressings were $3.55 each at my tops when I did the deal the other day. Last week I got a bottle of the same size at Walmart and it was $1.58! And they are right down the street from each other... crazy!

[mfaust]

Wow - now I don't usually shop at Walmart - maybe I need to check them out. Does anyone know how much kool-aid single packs are there?

[Giggles]

20-cents, everyday

Well, I took your advice and visited the Springville Tops on Saturday. I bought 30 kool aid, 10 dressings, 5 crystal lights, some vive shampoo and a few other misc things (with coupons). The cashier was really nice, but people behind me were NOT. I hate it when they get all huffy and grab their stuff and leave. oh well.
I went to SWM later that evening, what a PITA that was! The cashier whose tab said customer service manager, had to ask another customer service manager if they take IP's in black and white! Then they studied them for several minutes. Finally decided to scan them (went through fine). Then he drops them all over the floor!!! Loses one of my wheat thins frees, the register won't take the $2.50 price so he looks and said oh they were only $1.50. Finally pay and look at the receipt, they were $2.50 like I said! So had to go back to service desk for my $2 I'm owed and two more CSM's can't figure it out, don't know what is going on, what a freakin headache! Now, I never expect too much out of wally world, but this was ridiculous! CSM's didn't even know if they take IP's!
