Starting tomorrow @ Safeway...Crystal Light is $3.99. The promotion is buy 5, save $5 more (Purchase any combination of 5 in a single transaction. Offer valid 9/11/08 to 9/24/08)

So, buy (5) Crystal Light @ $3.99 = 19.95 - 5.00 (Discount) - (5) $3.99 Free Crystal Light wyb (3) kraft coupon. Make a profit of $5.00!!!

Enjoy!

well don't you have to buy kool-aid? so should still either be free or a small profit.

Yes, buy 15 packets of kool aid @ .20cents = $3.00

Use the buy 10 kool aid get 2 free coupon -.40 = $2.60

$5.00 - $2.60 = PROFIT OF $2.40

Still, a monetmaker!

There is another money maker unless I am way off.

TGIF meals are 3/$8 use 3 IP coupons for $3 off and get back $1 per three, buy 6 and you will get $7 overage. I just don't know how safeway works. I don't shop there enough to even know if they will take Ip's and 6 of the same one. It would be worth the drive for me if anyone knows if this would work!

I know they do take ip here in Chicago. I just don't know if 6 would be okay. I'm going to try it today and report back!

I know they will take at least the three. But, yes you would need to do at least 5 to get the deal.

The ad says..."Purchase ANY 5"...so you can do 3 crystal light, 9 kool aid packets, and 2 TGIF and make a profit of $3.88 (approx.)

3 crystal light @ 3.99 = 11.97
9 kool aid packet @ .20 = 1.80
2 TGIF (3/$8 or 2.67each) = 5.34
----------------------------------------------
19.11 - 5.00 discount = 14.11


use:
(3) free cystal light coupon 3.99= 11.97
(1) 2 free kool aid wyb 10 .20 = .40
(2) TGIF IP 3.00 = 6.00
-------------------------------------------------
18.37

Profit of 4.26!

OMG>>>>> thank you for confirming this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Q= you did (2) transaction with these items only?
No problems?

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm confused with your questions. I bought a huge cart load of groceries, these were amoungst my other items. I had no problems at all. The crystal light q's beep, but just because they want the cashier to write the amount on the coupon. My cashier didn't bother to scroll up to see what the price was, the original price is what popped up and the cashier just accepted it. Here is a copy of exactly what I bought today......
