So I just got the best deal eeeevvvvaaaaa!!!!!

Went to Farm Fresh, they had 20pks of Pepsi products 2/$10
Each 20 pk had a $1 off coupon & it's double coupon day!
And if you bought 3, you got a free pass to Busch Gardens!

So here's the damage...
Pepsi / Mt. Dew (6 cases) $30
Less Coupons (2 doubled) $8
Total due $22.70 after tax

And drum roll please.....register spit out 3 - $5 off my next purchase coupons - total $15! And 2 vouchers for Busch Gardens passes (worth $133.98)!!!

Total $31.50 less Total coupons & goodies $156.98 equals Farm Fresh paying me the equivalent to $125.48 to go to Busch Gardens, take 6 - 20pks of soda off their hands and come back later for $15 more in free food!!!

Heck yeah booooooy!!!!

-------------MUST DO 3 PACKS PER TRANSACTION FOR IF YOU DESIRE MULTIPLE TICKETS--------------

Thats awesome!

[awood279]

And anyone can still go to Farm Fresh and get this great deal!!! Well, if you live near Busch Gardens Williamsburg, VA. Even if you go on a non-double day, all you miss out on is $2 off the deal.

And it's HallowScream time!!!! Woooohoooo!!!

[kcelianeil]

how did your $2 coupon double???

[kcelianeil]

sorry, I see it was a $1 coupon....the coupon I saw were $2/2 packs....

At my store they had a mixture of both. I think the $1/1 coupon is an old coupon because the expiration date is 9/30/11. Probably why they had those stacks of them at the front of my store and the other stacks at the back of my store. The ones in back had the $2/2 coupons. Either way, now that double wed. is over, both coupons equal the same discount.

did you do all six soda's in one transaction or did you split them up somehow? I went tonight and bought six (no qs anywhere). Got $5 on next order and 1 BG ticket printed.

[awood279]

Yeah, you have to run through 3 at a time. Wow, I can't believe all the q's were gone. I did notice that a lot of the $2/2 on the ones at the back of the store did appear to be picked off. Bad, bad, bad!!!

[beckster2001]

Wow, that is awesome! Can I ask which store in Suffolk you went to?

[beckster2001]

And one more question...when do the BG passes expire?

[awood279]

Becky, I went to farm fresh in Suffolk. Make sure you run them through 3 at a time on separate transactions. They will each ring up as $5 each. The receipt will have a pass on the bottom that you take to guest services at BG for your pass. I am pretty sure they are good till the 30th of Oct. Don't have it with me right now.

[muslimahmommyrn]

Does anyone know if the Richmond storeis doing this deal?

[awood279]

I just called the one on main st in Richmond and was told no, they aren't running that special. I called the farm fresh on John Tyler Hwy in Williamburg and they said they are. Maybe you could swing by there grab the cases / transactions needed then hit BG. The soda will keep in the car.

[muslimahmommyrn]

Oh how I wish I could. But I don't celebrate halloween, and my kids run for the hallow scream commercials,

[Laurenmeli]

Looks like i know where i'm going shopping tomorrow! Anyone know if this deal is good in va beach?

[awood279]

Not sure but I can't imagine it wouldn't be....I live in Suffolk and that's where my Farm Fresh is. Good Luck!!!

THANKS SO MUCH awood279!!!!

The kids and I have BG passes, but wanted to take my Mom this weekend, so this morning I tried the 21st Street Norfolk Farm Fresh (Market at Ghent), the deal wasn't advertised in the circular, nor did the gal at CS know about it, but I saw the 12 packs for $5 each (no peelies but still worth it), so decided to take a chance the store was participating and sure enough it was!!

Got three 20 packs of Dr. Pepper (alas no Diet 20 packs!!) for $16 and change, received a $5 OYNO cat and the receipt had the BG ticket printed on the bottom

For the price of the sodas, saved us about $50 off admission, plus a $5 cat for this week, this deal is awesome!!!

My mom (a non-couponer!) was VERY impressed too, LOL!

[missmeglea]

We're planning on heading to BG tomorrow...my hubby is active duty military so we get in free once a year, but we're going with cousins of mine who would have to pay full price...sending the Wonder Spouse out to FF tonight to score some free BG passes It's all about paying it forward

[awood279]

Super glad that ya'll are able to use this!! Makes me happy to contribute, !!! We went tonight but it was soooooo stinking packed that we were actual were stuck in Ireland at Castle O'Sullivan for 10 mins. approx.! Literally stuck in a crowd that was not moving and packed so tightly together that we were all pressed up against each other, like a horrible rock concert without the music! Can you say fire hazard? They actually had to open the side doors to the river dance theatre to let people cut through that way. Horrible!! Anyway, we went to guest services and complainted (nicely) and they gave us complimentary tickets to come back another time. That was nice of them!

[nwfrugalista]

We probably just missed you awood279! We were there from about 11:30 this morning until almost 7 pm (with little kids, as soon as it starts getting dark and the fog machines start pumping we are getting out of dodge!!) Couldn't believe how long the line of cars was going in as we left the lot (it was almost backed up the full length of the VERY long exit ramp, before the bridge!)

Glad you'll get to go back and try again--wonder if it would be better/less crowded on a Sunday?

[awood279]

The supervisor that gave us the passes to come back said to come on either Friday night or definitely Sundays. And she said stay away at all costs on the 30th! Tonight they were at 20,000 guests and max. capacity is 32,000. She said they will hit 32,000 on the 30th. Yuck!!! I don't even want to image that many people there! I think we're going to head back next Sunday, plus we've got the Suffolk Peanut Festival next weekend too. Yippee!!!

[nwfrugalista]

I agree with the supervisor--since we have passes, during the summer we always would go during the week (usually Mondays/Tuesdays were pretty manageable for us), so my dd is not used to waiting in line much. Weekends during the summer are even lighter than the fall weekends (b/c of HallowScream as well as the fact that they're no longer open weekdays, so you have to go on the weekend). My general rule of thumb is, if they're using the overflow parking lot (on the opposite side of Route 60 East) then it's TOO crowded for us, LOL!

[missmeglea]

So yesterday we stopped at FF on our way to Busch Gardens (we had already made plans to go since we're active duty military and get in free once a year, but the couple we went with was going to have to pay full price, minus the $12 off coupons I found for them.) Anyway, both hubby and I went in to farm fresh, each got our 3 cases of diet pepsi (that's ALL they had left! Thank goodness we drink diet ) and each got the coupon! We also each got a $5 oyno! GREAT DEAL! The look on my cousins faces when I offered them free tickets instead of $12 off was awesome It was also pretty empty at the park...we barely waited in lines at all for anything! It was a little cold and rainy, so maybe that kept the crowds away...I would definitely recommend going on a sunday if that's part of the reason for the small amount of people. We had a great time and the kids LOVED it...thanks for the heads up on the deal!

[awood279]

Awesome!!! Glad you were able to get them free tickets. The look on their faces was probably the same look my boyfriend gave me when I told him of the deal I had just gotten. He was amazed.
