I haven't been keeping an eye on the sales so much lately, but had to share this one...
This week at Shaw's they have a spend $30 get back $15 in coupons for your next order. I know I've mentioned this before, but most people don't realize that these deals are on the pre-sale prices, so you don't REALLY have to spend $30 to get the $15 back. I haven't been clipping coupons for awhile, so all of the deals I'm going to post are without coupons.
Scott Paper Towels
pre-sale price = $2.09/roll
sale price = $0.99
Buy 15 rolls for $14.85
It gets even better... the store I went to yesterday had a blinky coupon machine on the shelf for $1 off 4, so I grabbed 4 coupons & bought 16 rolls instead of 15 - paid $11.85 and got $15 back for my next shopping trip. Nothing like getting paid to take home 16 rolls of paper towels, so keep an eye out for the coupon machine. :-)
Breyers Ice Cream
pre-sale price = $5.29
sale price = $2.99
Buy 6 cartons of ice cream for $17.94 - use the $15 in coupons from the paper towels, pay $2.94 and you will get another round of $15 in coupons for your next trip.
There are lots of different items that are included in the spend $30, get $15 deal - just check the back page of the weekly circular for what's included. Rumor has it that the Old El Paso products aren't working for the deal - maybe they were skipped in the system programming - so I'd stay away from those, but mix & match... get what you need & stock up on stuff that you will use... One last tip - you CAN double or triple the deal - meaning that you could buy BOTH the paper towels & ice cream in one transaction and you'd get back $30 in coupons.
I collected a few pre-sale & sale prices on the items that I'm interested in, so here are a few to consider if you want to make a plan before you shop...
I've listed the pre-sale price, the sale price, & quantity needed if that is the ONLY thing you were to buy to get the deal. The end price is assuming, you've already done a deal & already have $15 in coupons. So, for example, you'd only pay $1.83 for 17 pasta sides. Not too shabby!! If you have coupons for any of these items - USE EM because it will only bring down the amount that you pay.
Item
Knorr Pasta Sides Pre-sale = $1.79; Sale = $0.99
(buy 17, so $16.83 minus $15 = 1.83)
Knorr Rice Sides Pre-sale = $1.69; Sale = $0.99
(buy 18, so $17.82 minus $15 = $2.82)
Lipton Soup Mix Pre-sale = $1.69; Sale = $0.99
(buy 18, so $17.82 minus $15 = $2.82)
Progresso Broth Pre-sale = $2.69; Sale = $1.49
(buy 12, so $17.88 minus $15 = $2.88)
Progresso Soup Pre-sale = $2.50; Sale = $1.49
(buy 12, so $17.88 minus $15 = $2.88)
Skippy Peanut Butter Pre-sale = $2.29; Sale = $1.99
(buy 14, so $27.86 minus $15 = $12.86 - not a GREAT deal, but not too bad if you mix these in with other items, but less than $1/jar of PB is not THAT bad either & we use TONS of PB here)
Klondike Bars Pre-sale = $3.99; Sale = $2.99
(buy 8, so $23.92 minus $15 = $8.92)
Hellman's Mayo Pre-sale = $3.99; Sale = $2.99
(buy 8, so $23.92 minus $15 = $8.92)
Ragu Pasta Sauce Pre-sale = $2.50; Sale = $1.99
(buy 12, so $23.88 minus $15 = $8.88)
Shedd's Country Crock Spread Pre-sale = $4.99; Sale = $3.39
(buy 7, so $23.73 minus $15 = $8.73 - for this one, IF you want to stock up, I'd buy 6 + one 99 cent item - like a soup mix, because 6 is VERY close to the $30 needed)
Q-tips Pre-sale = $2.99; Sale = $2.50
Again.. mix these in with something else if you really need 'em... not worth it to buy $30 worth of Q tips unless your family goes through hundreds/month...
Happy Shopping!!
