About getting the RP in the mail: I don't know why. I know some parts of the country are getting it in the mail mid-week now. I'm in Milwaukee and I've been getting it in the mail since late last summer. Other than an occasional awesome deal like the one I posted (which totally worked, btw, I was *so* happy), it's usually not so great because, like I said, I can't just go get more if there are a bunch of awesome Q's.
One good thing about getting it a few days early is that when the P&G brandsaver Q's come out, it's usually timed so that the previous month's Q's expire on the Sat. before the Sunday they come out. But getting it a few days early means I sometimes have Q's that piggy back on each other to go along with a good sale (doesn't happen that often, but when it does, it's a perfect storm of coupon + coupon + sale).
For instance, last fall there were Mr. Clean erasers, BOGO and the previous month's were $1/1 and Mr. Clean liquid BOGO and the previous month's were also $1/1 (I hope I'm remembering that right). Anyway, I got my insert on Wednesday, last day of a 2/$4 sale at my Pick n' Save, which is also double coupon day. I called everyone I knew and got as many inserts as I could (can you believe people don't even look at those things? Just throw them out with the garbage?) Doubled the $1/1 Q's and used the BOGO's along with them for a cart full of free Mr. Clean liquid and erasers. |
