Ok. The new Albertsons ad is out today. It doesn't appear that there is much I want to buy on this sale. Not much is FREE or under $1. I decided to go in and get the barbecue sauce, since it's free (I'll show you how), and for the Medicines.
Here's what I bought in 2 Transactions:
Transaction #1
10 Kraft Barbecue Sauce $1 each, -$0.75/1 SS MC 05/03, -$3 wyb 10
Visine Eye Drops $3.99, -$2 here
3 Neosporin Ointment $4.49, -$1/1 SS MC 2/08 (exp 5/31)
2 Tylenol Pain Relief $5.49, -$2/1 SS MC
1 Carefree Pantiliner $3, -$1.50/1 here
= $21.19, received $3 & $10 Catalinas off next purchase
Ok. Here's where it gets good.
I bought 10 BBQ sauce for $10, used 9 MC for $0.75/1 (total $3.25), received $3 off instantly for buying $10 Kraft (total $0.25 for 10), then received a $3 Catalina off my next purchase. This makes an overage of $2.75!
As for the Health Items, I will submit for reimbursement from my Flexible Spending Account for these items as listed on my receipt: $31.44. I'm not sure if they'll pay it all--they may only pay the $23.50 on the bottom of my receipt.
Either way, I received a $13 Catalinas and received all this for no out of pocket!
Transaction #2
2 Neosporin Ointment $4.49, -$2/1 SS MC
4 Tylenol Extra Strenth Pain Relief, -$1/1 coupon here
=$24.80
I will submit this for reimbursement, as well, and received a $10 Catalina of my next purchase.
Not too bad for a day's shopping when I thought there wasn't much I was interested in. I received $23 in catalinas, received lots of product, and basically paid nothing out of my shopping budget for it! My kind of shopping trip!
