Great Deal on P&G Products at Rainbow Foods on 2/13

As mentioned in my deals list for Rainbow Foods this week, there's a great promotion on P&G products that could earn you a $10.00 prepaid Visa card.

So I went to Rainbow and worked the deal yesterday and it turned out great! I spent $12.22 OOP and I will get the $10.00 Visa back, making my net total $2.22. I spent more than I needed to though! This is what my transaction looked like:


1 Tide Stain Release, 36oz
2 Crest Prohealth Toothpaste
2 Crest Prohealth Mouth Wash
3 Oral-B Satin Floss
1 Nyquil Caplets
1 Dayquil Caplets
1 box of Puffs tissues

Total Before Sales or Coupons: $43.55

These are the coupons I used:
$3.00/1 from 1/10 RP for 36oz Tide Stain Release
**stacked with ad coupon for Rainbow sale price, which took another $2.00 off
$0.75/1 from 2/7 PG for Crest Toothpaste (used 2)
$2.00/1 from 2/7 PG for Crest Prohealth Mouth Wash (used 2)
$2.00/1 from 1/17 PG for Nyquil
$2.00/1 from 1/17 PG for Dayquil
$1.00/1 from 1/17 PG for Oral-B Satin Floss (used 3)
BOGO coupon from 2/7 PG for Puffs wyb two Vicks products (took off $1.35)

After the five coupons that were $1.00 or less were doubled, my total discounts from the sale prices and coupons totaled: $32.64

I had my own shopping bags, so I received another $0.10 off, which made my total OOP with tax $12.22!!



Now looking back, I'm happy with what I purchased, but I could have even made it into a money-maker. Here's my recommended scenario:


1 Tide Stain Release, 36oz (6.99)
2 Crest Prohealth Mouth Wash (5.98)
3 Oral-B Satin Floss (6.00)
1 Nyquil Caplets (4.00)
1 Dayquil Caplets (4.00)
1 box of Puffs tissues - (1.35, but doesn't count towards PG amount)

Total: $26.97


Then use these coupons:

$3.00/1 from 1/10 RP for 36oz Tide Stain Release
**stack with ad coupon for Rainbow sale price, $2.00 off
$2.00/1 from 2/7 PG for Crest Prohealth Mouth Wash (use 2)
$2.00/1 from 1/17 PG for Nyquil
$2.00/1 from 1/17 PG for Dayquil
$1.00/1 from 1/17 PG for Oral-B Satin Floss (use 3)
BOGO coupon from 2/7 PG for Puffs wyb two Vicks products (take off $1.35)

With the three $1.00/1 for the Oral-B Satin Floss doubled, the total off all coupons will be $20.35.

Results:
Total: $26.97
Coupons: -$20.35
Total OOP Expense: $6.62

Submit for $10.00 Visa

$3.38 Money-Maker!!

The only difference in my $2.22 OOP vs. the $3.38 money-maker is the lack of 2 tubes of toothpaste.

Also of note: the only doubled coupons in this scenario are the three $1.00/1 on the floss, so if you couldn't go on Saturday and wanted to do this deal today (Thursday) or Friday, you would still make money! You would only make $0.38 and your OOP expense would be $9.62.

What other good scenarios have you come up with?

Huggies Deal at Walgreens (with rolling RRs!)

UPDATE: The RR are no longer rolling on this deal as of last night. Hope you got a good deal while it was rolling!


Yesterday, Mercedes reported that the Register Rewards on Huggies at Walgreen's were rolling, and today I found that to be true.

I just stocked up on Huggies for $3.00 a pack, which for me equaled $0.11 per diaper (which is a great deal, my kids wear sizes 5 and 6).





Here's how it works:

1 jumbo pack of Huggies: $8.99
Use $2.00/1 Printable manufacturers' coupon
Use $1.00/1 Walgreen's coupon from the Children's Activity Book (thank you Patti!!!)
Total OOP: $5.99, Get $3.00 RR

But it's rolling! So my second-eighth transaction looked like this:

1 jumbo pack of Huggies: $8.99
1 small filler item (I got the pencils for $0.20 with ad coupon)
Use $2.00/1 Printable manufacturers' coupon
Use $1.00/1 Walgreen's coupon from the Children's Activity Book (thank you Patti!!!)
Use $3.00 RR from previous transaction
Total OOP: $3.19, Get $3.00 RR


I might not need to buy diapers for the rest of the year, after last weeks deals at CVS, Rainbow and now today at Walgreen's.

HOT OFF THE PRESSES: Roundy's Double Coupon Days

Upon opening my newspaper this morning, check out what I saw on the front page!!!

"Announcing a limited time offer: Saturday is also Double Manufacturers' Coupon Day! Saturday, February 6th through Saturday, April 10th, 2010"

How exciting is this!!! This is in addition to Double Coupon Wednesdays, so for a few months we will have two days each week to go double our coupons at Rainbow Foods.

Of course, the same rules will apply:

• $25.00 minimum purchase
• Up to 5 manufacturer coupons can be doubled per transaction
• Only coupons up to $1.00 in face value can be doubled
• Buy One, Get One Free or Try Me Free coupons are not eligible for doubling. Coupons that state "Do Not Double" are not eligible for doubling

One exciting perk of this promotion is the ability to use the following weeks coupons on the current sales, if there are good match-ups. You can do this by purchasing Early Edition Sunday Papers on Saturday. (This is also a less expensive way of getting the Star Tribune, as the Early Sunday is only $0.50, vs. the actual Sunday at $1.75)

To find good match-ups, I recommend visiting the Sunday Coupon Preview.

So, stay tuned for more details on the weekly shopping lists, I'll try to include these match-ups in and early posting to help folks get the best deals on Saturdays!

Weekend Wrap Up & This Weeks Deals

I can't even begin to express how tired I am right now. I cooked all weekend and we are ready for February to begin. After bagging up the last little big of the world's best ever homemade pizza sauce, here's how my punch list is looking:

Wild Rice Soup x4
Zuppa Tuscana Soup x5
Lasagna x2
Sunshine Chicken x4
Brown Rice x6
Pizza Sauce x5
Chili x2
Spaghetti Sauce x2
Whole Wheat Dinner Rolls x4
Garlic Bread x4
Cornbread Mix x2
Pizza Crust x5

Yes, that's right. All of my cooking is completely finished! Hooray! I decided to leave the few baking items till tomorrow, since my knees are going to buckle if I'm standing upright at the counter for another second. But I'd say that's not bad for one weekend! I did all of my cooking both Saturday and Sunday in the evenings, and that was the main reason it took both days. If I had started in the morning, I should have been able to do it all in one day. Maybe next month.

As I am so exhausted from all this cooking, I'm going to head off to bed now and work on my shopping lists for this week early in the morning. Stay tuned, there should be some good deals this week. A few highlights I've seen already are:


Avocados - $0.39 each at Aldi

Nabisco Crackers - FREE with doubled coupon at Rainbow Foods

Tostitos Chips and Dip - $1.00 each with coupons at Target

Philadelphia Cream Cheese - $0.50 with doubled coupon at Rainbow Foods


Also, don't forget to check all your favorite online coupon spots in the morning, as most of them will be resetting their stock and loading up fresh new coupons! Goodnight all!

(I'm not going to bother with a Saturday Savings Summary this week. I shopped a LOT and I saved a LOT this week. I also cooked for an army, so we'll get back to that next week.)

Cub Foods Deal: Yoplait Cups for $0.20

I just got back from a shopping trip at Cub Foods and I wanted to post up about a pretty good deal on Yoplait yogurt cups.

This week at Cub, Yoplait cups (Original, Whips, Light or Thick & Creamy) are on sale for $0.40 per cup with the ad coupon.

If you buy 20 cups, stack the ad coupon with one $1.00/8 Printable Coupon and two $0.50/6 Printable Coupons found here or here.

Your total out-of-pocket expense will be $6.00 for 20 cups. But wait! There's more....

What is not in the ad, but is posted on the shelves at the store is this: if you buy 20 cups, you will receive a coupon at checkout for $2.00 off your next order. So, factoring in this money off coupon, your net cost for 20 cups of yogurt would be $4.00 or $0.20 each!

FYI: The $2.00 off your next order coupon spits out of the catalina and the catalina's can be very slow at times, so make sure you wait for your coupon to come out.
