Albies 11/4

Albertsons has a really great General Mills promo going on this week. Buy $30 in participating products and get back a $15 catalina coupon good on your next shopping order. Essentially this makes all these items 50% off without even having to worry about coupons. Combining this promo with coupons just makes them that much better deals.

Here is what I did:

Transaction #1:

6 boxes of Cheerios 8.9 oz - $1.88 each ($.94 with the promo factored in)
Used six $.55/1 coupons from here or here
(Or there is a $1.00/1 coupon if you haven't already used it here or here)
Using the $.55 coupon makes these each $.39!!

6 boxes of Kleenex Facial Tissue 110 ct $.99 each ($.49 with the promo factored in)
Used six $.50/3 from 11/1 smart source or here
Final price $.34 each when you buy 3

3 Knorr Pasta Or Rice Side Dishes $.99 cents each ($.49 with the promo factored in)
Use one $1.00 off 3 coupon here and here
Final price $.17 each when you buy 3

1 Lipton Dry Soup Mix $.99 cents each ($.49 with the promo factored in)

3 Progresso Rich and hearty Soup & Traditional soup $1.69 each ($.85 with the promo factored in)
Used one $1/3 coupon here , $1.00 off 2 or $1.10 off 3 here
Final price $.35 -$.48 each

2 Kleenex Dinner Napkins 50 ct. $1.99 each ($1 with the promo factored in)

My total OOP on this was $25.12 and I got back three $5 catalina coupons to use on my next order.

Transaction #2:

6 Progresso Rich and hearty Soup & Traditional soup $1.69 each ($.85 with the promo factored in)
Used two $1/3 coupon here , $1.00 off 2 or $1.10 off 3 here
Final price $.35 -$.48 each

1 Lipton Dry Soup Mix $.99 cents each ($.49 with the promo factored in)

4 Viva Bill Roll Paper Towels 115-ct. $1.99 each ($1 with the promo factored in)
Used four $.40/1 coupon from 10/11 smart source or here
Final price .60 cents each

12 Knorr Pasta Or Rice Side Dishes $.99 cents each ($.49 with the promo factored in)
Use one $1.00 off 3 coupon here and here
Final price $.17 each when you buy 3

I used the $15 in cats from my last order to pay for some of this order. My total OOP on this was $9.41 and I got back three more $5 catalina coupons to use on my next order.

So in couponers math :) all this cost me $19.53!! Without coupons and promos this would've cost me $96.09! That's a savings of 80%.
