Brawny Paper Towel 6 ct pkg big roll, no insert coupons in database
Quilted Northern Double Roll Bath Tissue 12 ct, no coupons in database

$7.99 ea.

In-ad coupon for additional $1 off, it’s a store coupon so you should be able to stack it with the mfr coupons also available for these items. Store coupon only valid Fri/Sat/Sun. I also heard from a friend who used the store coupon for the macaroni & cheese last week, that 1 coupon deducted the amount from ALL the items, similar to Walgreens. In other words, if you get two Scott items, you should only need 1 store coupon to take $1 off each item. Double check, though!

No coupons? No problem! week of May 9

Sorry I’m a little late with this one this week. My pick of the week is still going to be Giant! I went there this morning and had mixed success.

First, the Hallmark catalina offer is still working. Buy any three cards and get $5 back. The $0.99 cards work and I’ve purchased dozens. But, I did have one transaction this morning not work for me, so choose carefully and be prepared to return them or eat the cost if it doesn’t work. At the Kennett Square store they do have $0.99 Father’s Day cards. I also read online that in Altoona, PA, the store has been instructed to NOT restock any of the $0.99 cards until this deal is over. Pfft! So while this is a great deal, it’s turning into a YMMV (your mileage may vary) deal very quickly.

The Scott deal is also still running through this week. But any three Scott items from different categories, and get $3 back. The three categories are toilet paper, paper towels and wet wipes. The paper towels are $1 and the small TP roll is $0.87, so you can just pay $1.87+ tax and get $2 back. And that $2 will roll onto a second deal, just make sure you have something to eat up the overage. I’ve been using the $0.50 coupon on the wipes, which are $1.89. Once that coupon doubles, I’m paying $0.87 + $0.89 +$1.00 and getting $3 back. Love free TP!

But if you don’t have any coupons, still lots of small freebies to be had at Giant. I am completely stocked in greeting cards now, for the next few years!

Headed back to Giant-Scott & Hallmark deals

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!
