And the winner is……..Acme. That’s where I’m shopping this week.

The 15/30 deal is good–much better than I originally thought. First, on this thread on hotcouponworld you’ll see some discussion on what items have been tried.

I can confirm that I have purchased the Bounty and the Tide, and that both items work on shelf price, not sale price. Tide is shelf price 15.69 and Bounty is 14.99. So I only had to purchase 1 of each to hit my $30 threshhold. Here’s what I did–go to self-checkout, scan the two items first. Then scan any coupons you have. Scan your Acme card last. My final total came to less than $20 for those two items–and I got the $15 back.

Better yet–you can double dip on the baby deal. Buy three Pampers at $10 each to hit your $30. Use any coupons you have, and you’ll get $15 back as part of the Proctor & Gamble deal, and you’ll get another $5 back for the 5/25 baby deal.

And………even better yet……..I rolled them! I bought 3 more Pampers, used my $15 from Tide/Bounty, used the $5 from previous Pampers purchase…….and still got another $20 back.

I did 5 or 6 transactions, and after all was said & done, I ended up spending $3-$5 oop for over $30 worth of Proctor & Gamble products, whether it was Tide, Bounty or Pampers. $1 for a pack of diapers–I’ll take it! And, look for the Pampers that have a Cheerios ad on the front of the pack, there’s a $1.50 Cheerios coupon inside.

Use that coupon for……..Buy 7 boxes of Cheerios. Shelf price-$4.69, sale price $2. Seven boxes will get you to your $30 threshhold, scan boxes first, coupons second, card last. You will actually get paid to walk out the door with the Cheerios.

Thank you Acme–this makes it all worth putting up with your grouchy cashiers.
