I didn't blog about this awesome Shop Rite catalina earlier because I wasn't sure I was going to do it--but I've done my research and you can get A LOT of groceries with this!
Here's the deal!
- Buy$40 of participating products and get $5 in free groceries
- Buy $80 of participating products and get $25 in free groceries
- Buy $120 of participating products and get $50 in free groceries
The big pay off doesn't come unless you spend at least $80 on participating items but the great part is you have 2 weeks to qualify AND there are a TON of items that work! ALL Kraft, Unilever and General Mills items are participating! That is AH-mazing! My personal plan of attack was to look at the flyer and see what coupons I have to match up with this week's sales and spend at least $80 (pre-coupons) so that I could get the $25 catalina to use NEXT week when I buy another $40 of items to qualify for the next $25 catalina! You see, as soon as you hit $40 you get the $5 catalina instantly. When you hit $80 you get that one! All the spending is tracked by your shopper's card. Below I will list what I purchased and below that some other matchups!

Next week I plan to take those catalinas, as well as the fruit snack catalina that printed and use them towards the last $20 of stuff I need to purchase! I spent about $60 oop on all this and got $27 back! It was a lot of sitting and thinking and searching for coupons--but this much food for such a small price? Totally worth it!

Shelly, I love your wording here:
ReplyDelete"It was a lot of sitting and thinking and searching for coupons--but this much food for such a small price? Totally worth it!
You are so right!
I spent probably 2 hours between last night and this morning, searching for coupons, price matching (remember, I don't have all the different stores around me--only Walmart--but they do price match within 50 miles, so I can use all of the ads from the next town OVER to get great sale prices--it's like shopping at 5 stores in one! :)), pulling coupons, organizing and sorting and clipping...
...but I saved over $100 today at the store! It was unbelievable. Seriously!
So glad to have a friend that sees the value in taking the time/making the effort to save big money! You go girl.
I got mine but somehow I did it by only spending $83!!
ReplyDeletei think it's actually based on shelf price which totally helps! i wasn't 100% sure it was going to be! but yay for shelf price!
ReplyDeleteit must have been b/c there is no other explanation! Of course, had I planned on going in there only spending the shelf price, my luck, it probably wouldn't have worked!
