There is also a magical alignment of the couponing stars known as a DOUBLE DIP catalina. In this occasional freak of nature, you purchase products which actually qualify for TWO different catalina deals -- and you get BOTH!!
This week at Stop and Shop there is a Buy $20 General Mills products and get $7 CAT back There is ALSO a Buy 4, get $4 on Nature Valley Granola Bars and select Betty Crocker Fruit Snacks which are General Mills products that work for the GM CAT.

Final Cost: $0.90 each

There's another save instantly deal -- Buy $15 worth of participating items and get $5.00 off your order instantly ---

The deal works on the "shelf price" --- the regular price before sales or coupons ---

So for instance -- Skippy peanut butter is part of the deal. Its on sale for $2.00 --- the shelf price is probably about $2.50 (that's what it is at most stores) YOu'll need to check the shelf price and have calculator in hand before you try the deal.

But if its $2.50 ---- You'd need 6 jars to make the $15.00 (6x2.50 - 15.00_

But 6x$2.00 (sale price) is only $12.00

Save $5.00 instantly and it comes down to $7.00 or $1.17 a jar (there are no Skippy coupons out there right now ---so that's the best you can do right now -- but still probably better than you're used to doing)

The other item that comes out as a good deal is

Wishbone Salad dressing $2.00 --- again, shelf price is probably more like $2.50 ish

6 x $2.00 = 12.00

less 4 of these coupons

use $0.75/1 Wish-Bone Salad Dressing Coupon

$12.00 - $6.00

minus the Save $5.00 instantly --- = $1.00

So $1.00 for 6 bottles of salad dressing

You can't do this in the same transaction as the Skippy -- it will only take off the $5.00 once per transaction.

Another Instant Savings Deal:

purchase 7 products from the list --- and save $3.00 instantly

Green Giant Valley Fresh Sauce Steamers - $1.66

use $0.50/1 Green Giant Coupon

So -- 7x $1.66 = $11.62

less 4 of the coupons doubled -- = $7.62

less the $3.00 it will take off instantly = $4.62

Final Cost: $.66 each

The coke deal is one I love (cuz its not just Coke)

Buy $15.00 worth of participating products and get $5.00 back (this is a coupon for $5.00 off your next order that will print at the end of the transaction)

Here's the deals I'm loving: (remember this also works on the shelf price)

Simply Orange Orange Juice ($1.50) - $1.00

So -- 10 of these little bottles of orange juice = the $15.00 you need to qualify

But it will ring up as $10.00

Pay the $1o.00 and get $5.00 back at the end of the transaction

Final Cost: $.50 a bottle (they're pretty good for lunches etc)

If you're wandering around Walgreens and find a copy or several of a freebie magazine called Diabetes and You --- there's a $1.00 coupon in it for Simply Orange Juice (any size) Use up to 4 of these -- and you could end up paying only $1.00 for the whole lot of 10 bottles. Sweet (also some people are finding tear pads of $.50 off coupons for this orange juice at convenience stores like Quick Chek (we don't have them, so I don't even know what they are)

If you're actually paying for things, there are some other deals that might be worth your time -- but that's it for me.

Stop and Shop: Week of 3/13

2011-03-13T18:13:00.000-07:00

So here's the frozen food deal that is making everyone's heart go pitter patter:

Spend $25 on participating products March 11-17, get a $10 Catalina coupon OR, spend $15 and get back $5.
The $15/$5 isn't a great deal in most cases --- but the $25/$10 works out nicely for some items. As usual, it works on shelf price (I've listed what I found)

Breyer’s All Natural Ice Cream – 2/$5 (shelf price is $4.39)
Dove Ice Cream Bars or Miniatures (couldn't find these)
Elios 9 Slice Pizza 2/$5.00 (shelf $3.29
Freschetta Natural Rising Pizza – 2/$10 (shelf $6.99) use $1.00/1 Freschetta Printable
Dole Whole Frozen Strawberries – $2.99 (shelf $3.69) there's a tiny double dip on this one. buy 3 and get a $.50 CAT back. Use the $1/2 from 3/6 RP
McCain French Fries – 2/$5 (shelf $2.99)
Aunt Jemima French Toast – 2/$4 (shelf $2.69)
New York Texas Garlic Toast – 2/$4 (shelf $2.59)
Wanchai Ferry Entrees – $5.99 (shelf $7.99) use the $1.50/1 coupon from the 3/6 SS insert

For what its worth: I'm interested in the Breyers:

6 Breyers = $15.00

no coupons

Get at $10 CAT back

Final cost: $.83 each

And the strawberries:

7 Strawberries = $20.93

less 3x $1/2 = $17.93

Get back $10 CAT and 2x $.50 CAT

Final Cost: $.99 each

And possibly:

3 Wanchai Ferry = $17.97

1 New York Texas Toast = $2.00

less 3x $1.50 Wanchai Ferry = $15.47

Get a $10 CAT back

Final cost: $1.83 each (I only calculated the Wanchai ferry stuff -- the other is just filler)

Price Chopper: Week of 3/13

2011-03-13T18:00:00.000-07:00

Price Chopper has two different catalina deals going on this week. The first is the one I'm excited about:

Kraft Catalina: Spend $15 on participating products in one transaction, get $5 off your next shopping order
As usual, the CAT runs on shelf price (which is considerably higher than the sale price in most cases.) This one is worth a reconnaisance trip to Price Chopper to get the actual shelf prices. I'm thinking that the cheese should work out pretty well.

Esther's Maiden Voyage: Stop and Shop

2011-03-13T17:42:00.000-07:00

I'm so proud of Esther (who will probably kill me when she reads this).
Here's what she did tonight at Stop and Shop (no coupons!!!)

7 Stouffer dinners ($3.69 shelf price) $2.00 sale price = $14.00
Get $10 CAT back
Rinse, repeat until you get tired.... (we thought it might accumulate for the $100/$25 frozen food deal, but they keep knocking off the CAT when you use it to pay, so NO GO)

Then
6 Breyers ice cream ($4.39 shelf price) $2.50 sale = $15.00
less the $10 CAT from before
Pay $5.00
Get another $10 CAT

Then we found a $2.00 CAT that someone abandoned --- WOO HOO --- found money on top of pillaging.
