Albertsons Trip


I went to Albertsons today to see if I could get some good deals with the double coupons from Sunday's paper. Here's what I got:

6 Skippy Natural Peanut Butter ($2.00 each)
8 Kraft Mac & Cheese ($1.00 each)
2 Knorr Rice Sides ($1.00 each)
1 Thomas' Cinnamon & Sugar Mini Bagels ($2.50)
2 Rice Krispies ($1.99 each)
1 bunch parsley ($0.69)
1 cucumber ($0.79)
2 Fruit Snacks ($0.59 each)
Total Before Coupons: $31.14

Used Albertsons in-store coupon for Skippy Peanut Butter (any kind) $0.99 each (saved $1.01 each)
Used 2 "Buy 3 get 1 free" Kraft Mac & Cheese coupons (saved $1.00 with each coupon)
Used $0.75/2 Knorr Rice Sides coupon from 5/17 RP insert
Used 2 $1/1 Kellogg's coupons from 6/7 RP insert
Used 3 Albertsons doubles ($0.75, $0.99 and $0.99)
Saved $5 for buying 10 items from "Epic Event"
Total Coupons Used: ($20.54)

Total OOP: $11.60
Received 3 $1 catalinas from Skippy Naturals (Buy 2 get $1 off your next purchase)
Received $2 catalina from Kraft (Buy 4 Mac & Cheese, get $1; Buy 5 get $1.50; Buy 6 get $2)
Total: $6.60!

*Note: the Kraft Mac & Cheese coupons I used were IP coupons, not the ones from the 6/28 SS that state "Limit one coupon per customer per transaction". If those are the only ones you have, this transaction will not work for you. (Some Albertsons cashiers will take more than one of the SS coupons, but I do not advocate using coupons in a manner in which they were not intended.)
