Smiths CaseLot Sale

There are caselot sales going on at AFS (Macey's) right now as well as Smiths. Thanks to UtahDealDiva for THIS post that compares some of the prices. Personally, there wasn't any great deals at Macey's this time around that I wanted to take advantage of. So I went to Smiths today and took advantage of a the case lot sale (2 week sale) for a few things that I was low on.

The one deal that I wanted to highlight is on Skippy Peanut Butter. We go through PB like crazy so I almost always need more. Smiths has a case of 12 Skippy PB's on sale for $15.60. That works out to be $1.30 each. There are also a $.75/2 coupon in the 3/28RP that came in your mail box. This would make them about $.93 each. I actually went onto ebay at the beginning of the week and ordered a batch of 15 higher value coupons, $1/2 for a grand total of $.99. That makes them $.80 each if you buy them in the case. NOW THAT BEING SAID, there has been some discussion on the PYP threads about whether they will allow you to use coupons on a case item as they are often times skewed my the case, not individually. So you will want to ask at the store before you check out to find out if you can use your coupons. Some items at Smiths can be bought individually at the same lower price as they would be in the case and some can not.

Okay so onto the Skippy deal. The individual Skippys are marked at $1.30 each (the caselot price). If you buy 10 of them you will get a catalina that prints out for a free Digital Choice Reward which is you choice of 15 free music downloads, 1 free movie ticket OR 15 free ringtones.

So for me it was worth it to just buy 10 seperate Skippy's instead of a case of 12.

10 Skippys for $1.30 each
Used five $1/2 coupons (from ebay)
Paid $8 for 10 Peanut Butters and one free movie ticket!
