Acme Catalina Awesomeness

We did a few transactions at Acme today in order to roll over our catalinas. The deal is to buy $25 (shelf price) of items and get 2 $5 catlinas back. Lucky for us, the sale price is much lower than the shelf price so we did well!

We got all of this food,  

a total value of: $137 

for $1.30 out of pocket!!!!!  

with $20 back for our next transactions!

Now, we don't even eat Hamburger Helper but it was a money maker so we did this transaction twice and plan to donate our 20 boxes to the NJ Food Pantry!

Transactions 1 and 2:

10 Hamburger Helper $1 sale price ($2.69 ea shelf price)
=$10 ($26.90 shelf price)

-3 .75/3 Hamburger Helper General Mills Insert 10/3
