Bringing you the best deals from southern Chester county and beyond!
Check out this list on hotcouponworld. And I don’t want to insult anyone’s intelligence, but in case you didn’t know–when looking at a page like that, use “control F” and then type in the store name. Your computer should take you to every time that word is put in, so you’ll know if it’s at your local store.
I love hotcouponworld!
Dear Superfresh, Why did you even bother putting out an ad this week? Isn’t the goal of your ads to entice me into coming to your store, because of your good sales? Where are they? Am I missing pages? Sincerely, me & my readers
Gah! Seriously, the ad is smaller & thinner than usual, and nothing great.
Perdue stuff incl. breasts-50% off, may not be bad if you have the $0.75 coupons that will double (4/10 inserts)
There is however a catalina offer that I’d like to get excited about. It’s Pepsi, Tropicana, Frito Lay, Gatorade and Unilever (Unilever is Ragu, Lipton, Hellmanns, Breyers, Bertolli, Suave, I forget what else). But here’s the thing-“See store for list of participating items!” The ad just has a big picture of some items (and the pic includes some Reese’s items (Hershey product) which is odd.
It’s either get $7 when you spend $25 or get $12 when you spend $40. There were decent Pepsi/Tropicana/Frito Lay coupons last week. It should work on shelf prices like all of their other deals, but we don’t know the sale prices. It’s very difficult to put together decent transactions without having the sale prices in front of you!
If we want to do this deal and try for free stuff, it’s going to require in-store planning, grrr. Do you know how hard that is with a 2-year-old and a 4-year-old? First I was disappointed that SF wasn’t doing the superdoubles, now this. There are some decent loss leaders on the front page, if you use those items. The Perdue. Chips Ahoy for $1.99. Strawberries for $1.99/lb. Smart Ones for 8 for $10. Barilla pasta for $0.88. OS Cranberry for $1.50.
But once you move past the first page, that’s it. I’ll keep my eye on the discussion boards to see if anything good pops up, but we also have to wait until Sunday/Monday for our Unilever coupons. I hope the Acme or Giant ads look better than this. Will keep everyone posted, please leave a comment if you find something good!
Last night I was poking around online and found some more Giant deals at hcw. I think I may go back this week and do some of these.
First, Hallmark has a promo that is buy any three Hallmark cards, get a $5 catalina on your next order (oyno). The $0.99 cards are working. And, Giant automatically deducts 10% from the sticker prices of cards, so you only pay about $2.75, get $5 back. Nice!
The second is a Scott deal. A bit more complicated-you have to buy different categories of Scott products. Buy two and you’ll get $2 oyno, buy three and get $3 oyno. But this is categories, not items. In other words, buy a toilet paper and a tissue, or a toilet paper and a Scott wet wipes. NOT two toilet papers or two tissues.
And, this is a wrench in the works and one of the reasons I don’t like Giant. When you get your $5 Hallmark catalinas, it’s being reported that you can only use one at a time, or one per transaction. So even though this deal stacks (buy 15 cards, get $25 oyno) you wouldn’t be able to use them all at once anyway. It is however, a nice way to get started on the diaper deal I posted yesterday.
Last night while we were eating dinner, I was thinking to myself how many freakin’ napkins we go through at each meal. And I thought about going back to Acme to do a deal on the Bounty napkins. Now I may see if the Scott ones work instead. Hmmm, I don’t usually like Giant, but definitely warming up to them this week!
Giant has two overlapping deals this week. One is a $25 mail-in-rebate offer when you spend $100 on P&G items. The other is a $5 back when you spend $20 on Pampers (a P&G item). Note that the $5 catalina you get back is ONLY good on Pampers items and says so right on it. There are lots of ways you could do this, this is what I did:
$19.99-box of Pampers
$2.69 tub-of Pampers wipes
For the first transaction, I was successfully able to use my $5 catalina that I got at Acme over the weekend. I also have the $0.20/wipes coupons from yesterday’s paper and various Pampers diapers coupons from the paper and home mailers. Anywhere from $1.50 to $3 off. Each transaction cost me about $15.xx for both after coupons & $5 catalina, and for each transaction, $23 worth of P&G credit towards the $100 would show up on my receipt. So I did the box of diapers/wipes transaction four times, which took me to about $92. I did get some Easy Ups and they are included in the promo.
Last transaction, just one jumbo pack ($8.99) and I used the $5 catalina AND a $1.50 coupon. That transaction only cost me $2.48 or something like that.
My final out of pocket was about $66, and I’ll send in the rebate form to get a $25 Visa gift card back.
$41 final total, for four big boxes of diapers, one jumbo pack of diapers and four tubs of wipes.
Of course once all was said & done and I was driving home, I realized I probably could have done better.
Two jumbo packs X 8.99=17.98 plus one tub of wipes at 2.69=20.67
From there, use two diaper coupons instead of one and one wipes coupon doubled- ($1.50+$1.50+$.40)=20.67-3.40-$5 catalina=$12.27 per transaction. But that one you would have to do five times to hit the $100. Final oop would be roughly $61, then $25 back, or $36 final total. You may end up with fewer diapers though. I think a big box has more than two jumbo packs, but you’d have ten jumbo packs & five tubs of wipes for $36 if you did it that way. Still a good deal.
The Kandoo are $1.99 and I have $1 home mailer coupons, but I didn’t try it. Was tempted but wasn’t positive it would generate the catalina so I skipped it. Also, Giant had zero Pampers swim diapers and I was interested in them for my jumbo pack, but oh well.
