If you go to PostNatural.com and register to receive newsletters, they will send you via email a $2.00 of any box of post Shredded whear, grape nuts or raisin bran.  This will go great with the Post sale at Albertsons tomorrow….

• Buy 5 or more, get  back $4.00  catalina towards you next shopping trip

• after you pay get back  a $4.00 catalina

Transaction #2

• buy five boxes of cereal
• total will be $7.95

• total will now be only 3.95
• After you pay get back a $4.00 catalina
• Final price 5 boxes $3.95 or .79 cents a box!!!!!
• You can do this over and over again

Scenario #1 with coupons

• on Feb 28th some areas got coupon for $1.00 off 2 post cereal (we did not get them in our area)
• Buy 5 boxes of cereal = $7.95
• use 2 coupon for $1.00 off 2 = take off $2.00
• Total will be $5.95
• Pay with $4.00 catalina
• Total will now be $1.95
• after you pay get back a $4.00 catalina
• final price 5 boxes for $1.95 or .39 cents a box!!

Scenario #2 with coupons

• Buy 6 boxes cereal = $9.54

Scenario #1 with Double coupons ( yes there are 3 double coupons in this ad)

• use 2 double coupons = takes another 2 off
• Total will be $3.95
• after you pay get back a $4.00 catalina ( plus you did not use the catalina from another deal….so it is makes them FREE)

Scenario #2 with double coupons

• Buy 6 boxes cereal = $9.54
• use 3 coupons for $1.00 off 2 = take off $3.00
• use 3 double coupons = takes another $3.00
• Total will be $3.54
• after you pay you will get back a $4.00 catalina ( plus you did not use the catalina from another deal….so it is makes them a money maker )

With the double scenarios you can ad a cheap filler item to bring your total before tax up $4.00….which would then allow you to pay with a $4.00 catalina, bringing  your total out of pocket down to pretty much just tax….and after you pay another $4.00 catalina will print.  Just a thought…hope it helps

I hope my Math is right……..I am looking forward to my brain coming  back after the baby is born…haa haa haa

I made this a very quick trip, I know there are lots of great deals this week with doubles but I felt it was more important I come home and rest.

Some of you have asked if I did any shopping last week, being that I did not post any photos.  I was on bed rest so I took the whole week off.  So no, I did not do any shopping.  BUT I did send Matt out for 2 gallons of milk, eggs, bread, apples and oranges.  He picked them all up at Costco, we just got back our yearly refund for using their gas card….so we got them all FREE.

We all are disappointed when we go to get a  Thrifty Deal only to find the item out of stock.  Here is what I suggest you do first. Ask to see if they have more, some times they will have another display, or more in the back.  If they are out of the item, ask when the next shipment comes in.  Try to come back before the sale ends, or get a rain check for the sale price.

What is a rain check? An assurance to a customer that an item on sale that is sold out or out of stock may be purchased later at the sale price.

If the item is part of a Catalina promo getting a rain check may not work.  They can not write you a rain check for the catalina only the sale price.  Some catalina run longer than the ad price so it is still worth getting a rain check, and you will just need to pay attention to the end date of the catalina.

If the item is not part of the weekly ad, but on sale you can still get a rain check.  The photo above shows the tag for No Yolk Noodles, normal price $1.99.  These were not in the ad but on sale for $1.29.  If you look at the bottom of the tag you can see the sale price is only good till 3/16.  Being the sale is almost over I got a rain check.  I hope to find this time back in stock next time there are double coupons…and use it with the .75 cent off coupon to get them free.  Many times these tag sales will last a few weeks…so it is important to look at the end date.

To get a rain check you will need to ask Customer Service or some cashiers are able to write them.   Please note that every store does rain checks a little different, it is important to ask your store questions you may have.  But Rain Checks are a great way to get a Thrifty Deal.

Albertsons Rain checks expire 30 days from the date written, while Walgreens do not expire.

I know Albertsons and Walgreens give out rain checks….what stores in your area use them?

You may want to keep you eyes open at McDonalds for their new coupon books  called “Spring Treat Packs.” They are $1 each and include these coupons:

Here is a  printable coupon for $1.00 off of ANY one Freshetta Pizza. Great thing about this coupon is it can be doubled.
