YES! I had a problem with the Wanchai kits...I bought the cashew chicken ones and it didn't produce a cat nor did they ring in on sale...for some reason my store had them for 20% off instead of 2/7...and they rang up for $3.83 or something like that. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR...I was doing my first triple and got really irritated when I counted my CATs...oh well, cannot win them all!

For the life of me I can not wrap my head around a deal for suave/degree/dove deal. I've been doing All mostly and got 12 jars of peanut butter tonight.

I bought lots of Dove and Degree. Of course, I got lots of All too. Skipped the peanut butter since I had lots of free Peter Pan and Smart Balance. It's been a fun week. On to Kraft...

I went back today and did a single, a double and a triple!!

In the triple I bought 12-Rice Pilafs (1.69), 6-All 2 Stainfighter (5.49), 8-Cookie Crisp (4.19), and 2-Chex Mix (2.69). Used .75/2 Rices (x6),1/2 Cereal (x4) and .50 mix (x2). Paid with 30 in cats. Got 45 back!!

For those w/o coupons precoupon total was about 42.

[Lestagirl]

Hey thanks for this, I want to go today and try my luck, only have a couple of coupons so if I am right I will spend $42 and get 45 back right? thanks will report back later.

[jessl]

Sounds like it!
I would just double check the shelf price at your store in case it is lower since different areas have different prices. As long as you hit $90 shelf price you should be OK.

[mom1198]

Both my stores are out of the Skippy Naturals PB, so I ended up with just 2 jars of the crunchy.
Anyone know if the Honey roasted or that low fat type is working?

[Katlady]

For anyone needing diapers, found this on sd (Can't remember who posted it!)
Mine was slightly tweaked to accommodate the coupons I had.
4 Honey Kix (Used .75/1 printable)
10 cookie Crisp ($1/2 insert)
1 Fiber One yogurt (Used free Q from psst)
1 Pampers ($1/1 insert)
1 Puffs
Also picked up a gallon of milk because I had a $5/$50 coupons. After all coupons, my total was $1.53. Used $35 in cats and got back $35 in cats. Those diapers will make a nice baby shower gift-since my oldest turns 20 tomorrow, I'm much closer to needing diapers than he is.

I can't thank you all enough for being so helpful.
I'm sort of new at this- I've used coupons here and there on random stuff in the past, but this time I think I did pretty well.

You'll probably laugh, but I never knew you could do more than one CAT deal in the same week- I used to think it was tied into your store card and "Big Brother" wouldn't let more than one per week go through. (I know, paranoid much?)
I'm also the same girl who was convinced that you had to buy 10 of the 10 for $10 products to get the price.

My husband's eyes glazed over when I was explaining how happy I was to him, but I knew you guys would get it.
Thank you all again!!!!!

As I was reading that I thought it was odd you were buying diapers

Awesome! Like winning on a slot machine

Well, it always happens that the day after the cat deal ends I wish i would have done one more run. Oh well - I did great and am very happy. The deal isn't over, but the sale prices aren't on anymore for many things. I didn't get any cereal because i have tons still, but still think I should have gotten some. Oh well, these deals will come around again so I'll stock up next time.

Glad it's somewhat over though - I can try and relax a bit since I'll only be doing probaly 1 Kraft run this week!

[Katlady]

Only 1-I have 4 planned for this morning. Of course, with a new baby, getting out at all can often be a challenge.

[daised]

I tried to resist the sale all week...but then was enticed by the double dip when Unliver mailed me some coupons....I went yesterday finally...didn't do too bad. I did three triple trans b/t two stores. Only one went perfectly though. On he first one, there was a printer issue, it ran out of paper in the middle of the fourth $5. So I only got the $12 and $20. After she put in a new roll, she hit some buttons and nothing came out..so she handed me what did print out. I said there should have been more so a mgr was called over. I couldn't really argue that I should have gotten $45 but considering that only one of three for the second set printed, it was easier to argue that I should have at least gotten two more.

She looked over my receipt and tried to add it up, but eventually claimed that there were two sitting at customer service that I could have so she went and got them. Although in my mind that means that some other customer was jipped out of two. Ah well, I'm still contemplating calling up catalina to see if they could check for a printer error.

Then at my second store I did two trans, the first was good, the second I only got 42 instead of 57...I'll have to do the math to see where I went wrong. In the end with a few other things I bought mixed in, produce, meat, juice, etc....I had $50 OOP, savings $271, $57 in cats left to spend....so I managed to make it out ahead by $5. Would have been better if I got the other $30 in cats, but I can't complain if I end ahead.

Now though, I am wondering if the Dove deal is on til 8/9...and there are still some things on sale...would the gm/unilever carry over to the 9th too? Not sure if I'm brave enough for that.

[stefani1]

Yes, I think the double dip is still good until the 9th. The Unilever/gm is reported until the 14th I think, so that's a go too. It's been confirmed working today already, so shouldn't be a problem. I didn't get any dove or anything, so maybe I'll see if I'm interested in any of that stuff this week.

As far as the kraft goes - I'm really not to interested in the deal. I'll do 1 just to do the rebate once since it's one per household and that's usually all I'll do. I don't have great coupons since I traded most of mine away and still have some cheese and stuff in the freezer. We shall see though - many things change when I think for too long though!

Would love to see your scenerios.... maybe we already have a thread going for this week though.

Awesome thanks!

I have a bunch of good non-insert qs to use for Kraft and I have an obsession with cheese...I'm putting together my trips for the weekend tonight, so I'll try to post in the thread started for the Kraft scenarios.
