I was just gathering up my receipts to do the P&G rebate. Here is the link to the form if you need it. Hitting $50 in P&G products should be no problem now!
Here’s what I did–
Transaction 1:
3 packs of Pampers-shelf price 10.69
Sale price-10.00
Minus three $1 coupons
Paid $27.00, got back $15 for buying $30 worth of P&G, $5 for buying $25 worth of baby stuff
Final-$7 oop for 3 packs of Pampers
Transaction 2:
2 bottles of Tide, shelf price 15.69
Sale Price: 10.99
Scanned two $1 coupons, then my card.
Paid $21.18, got $15 back for buying $30 worth of P&G
OOP: $6.18 for 2 of the BIG bottles of Tide
Transaction 3:
3 packs of Pampers wipes, shelf price 7.99
Sale price: 5.00
1 pack of Pampers diapers, shelf price 10.69
Sale Price: 10.00
Minus: $1 coupon for diapers; three $0.50 coupons (which doubled to $1) for wipes
**Note**I had $1.50 off Pampers wipes on my Avenu savings. This did not show up on the register, but I went to customer service and she gave me $4.50 in cash.
Paid $21, got $20 back–$15 for buying $30 worth of P&G, $5 for buying $25 worth of baby stuff.
OOP: $1 for 3 big packs of wipes and 1 diaper pack.
I did those 3 transactions back to back at self-checkout, then ran the stuff out to my car and went back in.
Transaction 4:
My weekly shopping trip, so it was big. $187 before coupons, $90 after coupons. I did use the $45 I had earned on the previous 3 transactions, and I earned another $15 for buying $30 worth of General Mills products. I am positive there were no P&G products in this transaction, only GM, as I was afraid that if I bought P&G, it wouldn’t roll. I bought 5 Progresso soups ($10 minus Qs), 4 yoplait yogurts ($10 minus Qs) and then $10 worth of the baking products listed, minus coupons of course. Also, my hubby had requested lots of stuff I didn’t have coupons for, so it was a higher bill than usual.
Then I got home, unloaded and realized I forgot lasagne noodles, and that Acme owed me $4.50 for the wipes, so I went back.
Transaction 5:
Another Tide-15.69 shelf price, 10.99 sale price
Huge pack of Bounty-14.99 shelf price, 10.00 sale price
Had $1 off Bounty on my Avenu. Also used $1 Bounty coupon and $1 Tide coupon, and used my $15 from previous transaction.
Paid $3.10 OOP, got $15 back, again for $30 worth of P&G
Transaction 6:
3 more packs of Pampers
Only had one $1 coupon left. Used that, plus the $15 from previous transaction, plus $10 from the previous baby transactions I did. Paid $4 oop, got another $20 back. For P&G and for buying baby stuff.
Whew!
Tomorrow my plan is:
7 boxes of Cheerios, shelf price 4.69.
Sale Price: 2.00
Another shopper on hcw reports that Cheerios are working at shelf price. So the 7 boxes will get me to $30.
Sale Price: $14
Minus: Seven $1.50 coupons that I pulled out of the packs of Pampers.
I should be paying $3.50 and getting $15 back.
Then I’ll have another $15 to work with, for a total of $30 in cats, plus one baby $5 cat.
I think I will do Bounty/Tide again. From there I’m going to check the shelf prices on Cascade and Downy and see what I can do there. I also have many more kids’ Yoplait coupons and Kevin loves that stuff. Depending on the exp dates on it, I may get brave and see if shelf prices work for that as well.
Don’t forget all the GM websites–eatbetteramerica.com, pillsbury.com, bettycrocker.com to get your IPs for the deal too.
