I've never been handed cold hard cash for groceries before. I've heard of such things but it's never personally happened to me. Until today that is! Here's how I did it. (A complete list of Safeway's deals and other promotions can be found at bargainblessings.com; I'm too lazy to write them all down and that's not really what my blog is about). I tried to blow up my receipt the best I could but it got a bit blurry. It says I saved 102% off my purchase.
That's the $.82 they paid me. This makes me happy.
Safeway Promotion #1: Buy 5 qualifying Kelloggs, Post, or Betty Crocker Items; Get $5 instant savings
1. Post Raisin Bran Cereal: $1.50 (-$2 coupon) FREE; I bought 2
2. Kelloggs Fruit Snacks: $1 (I had two different coupons. One, a $1.50 off and one a $1 off) FREE, I bought 2
3. Nature Valley Clusters: $1.50 (-$1 coupon) $.50; I bought 1
Safeway Promotion #2: Buy 5, Save $5 on Marie's Pourable Dressings, Eat Right Salad Mixes, POM Teas, or 8 oz Mushrooms
1. Maries Pourable Dressings: .99 ea (-$1 coupon) FREE I bought 4 as that is all the coupons I could print.
2. Eat Right Spring Mix Salad: .99 ea I bought 1
Safeway Promotion #3: Buy $25 worth of qualifying frozen foods, get a $10 off coupon for your next purchase. I did this on Monday so I already had a $10 off coupon. See my post below.
So far, the 10 items above have cost me $1.50. But keep reading!
The rest of my order included:
1. 2.29 lbs of cabbage at $.29/lb: $.66
2. 3.87lbs of corned beef at $1.29/lb: $5.07
3. 3 Banquet Turkey Potpies at $.69/ea: $2.07
4. Barilla Pasta: .88ea (-$1 coupon): +.12 moneymaker
So: $1.50 + $.66 + $5.07 + $2.07 - $.12 = $9.18
- the $10 off frozen food coupon = $.82!!!!!! Amazing, isn't it :)
