Thought this would be helpful if when you have successful trips or scenerios that you post them here to make it easier to see.

[Beckysue510]

I just posted in the My Shaw's Trip Today section but here are some scenarios I came up with:

6 Hellman - Shelf $3.29 sale $2.50
6 Knorr sides - Shelf $1.79 sale $1.00

Use: 6 Hellman $.60 q's doubles, 3 knorr sides $.60/2 doubled
Total Shelf: $30.48
Total Sale: $10.20

#2
5 Degree Deod - Shelf $3.10, sale $2.50
6 Wishbone - Shelf $2.79, sale $2.00

Use - 5 .75/1 degree doubled, 6 .75/1 wishbone doubled
Total shelf: $32.69
Total sale: $8.00

[Beckysue510]

Here's another one:

8 Knorr Sides - Shelf $1.79, sale $1.00
2 Degree deod - Shelf $3.19, sale $2.50
4 Suave deod - Shelf $2.00, sale $1.67

Use: 4 .60/2 Knorr, 2 .75/1 Degree, 4 .50/1 Suave deod.
Total Shelf: $30.30
Total Sale: $ 7.87

[stefani1]

These are great!!! I'm hoping to get there later today if DH will watch the kiddos. ( I haven't gone out with both of them yet!!!) Thanks for your scenerios. I'm still waiting on some coupons, so I'm limited to IP's and Mayo right now!

[Vickie_2007]

i've never shopped Shaw's, but am in the area now. Do I not need to spend $30 to do this? I thought the $30 would be the sale price, not the orig. price.

[lmac0918]

I did:

3 Fiber One yogurts (strawberry and vanilla)@ 2.99 ea
2 Yo-Plus yogurts (blueberry and vanilla)@ 2.99 ea
4 Chex Mix bars @ 3.79
Presale price 30.11

-4 coupons for .60 off the Chex Mix bars (they were DND printables and the cashier made sure they didn't double
-5 coupons for $1/1 each of the yogurts
Total after sales and coupons 17.10 (not the greatest) and the $15 in catalinas did print

[Katlady]

I did 3 double transactions today so far:

Transaction 1:
6 All ($5.49 psp)-$3.50 ($1/1 Q)
10 Lipton/Knorr sides ($1.69/$1.79 psp)-$1.00 (.75/2 Q)
5 Chex Mix ($2.69 psp)-$1.67 (.50/1 Q)
Total after Q's-$20.85 Got $30 OYNO cat.Used cats from Dove double dip deal to pay.

Transaction 2:
6 All ($5.49 psp)-$3.50 ($1/1 Q)
4 Breyers ice cream ($4.99 psp)-B1G1 ($1/2 printable)
4 Chex mix ($2.69 psp)-$1.67 (.50/1 Q)
Total after Q's-$25.66 Got $30 OYNO cat.Used cats from previous transaction to pay

Transaction 3:
6 All-see above for total
4 Dove conditioner-$31.96($1/1 Q)
Total after Q's-$42.96 Got $42 OYNO (Dove double dip)

Now to figure out more scenarios...

Now to figure out more scenarios...

Can you do two transactions with this deal and get $30.00 at once? This would be so much better than having to keep breaking up my transactions. So far I only did two transactions but broke them all up!

[rachelhale]

Please someone who has done it successfully confirm that you can do 2 of the scenarios in one transaction and get $30 in cats...THANKS!

[rachelhale]

6 Wishbone Dressings =$12-.75/1 qs = $6
5 Chex Mix $8.35-.50/1 = $3.35
1 Betty Crocker Warm Delights $1.67-$.50/1= .67

Total OOP $10.02

Yes, you can do 2 transactions at the same time. That's what I did all 3 times. Much easier than single.

[stefani1]

I've heard it triples too!!! Less trips if you dare!!! I'm going crazy here not able to get out yet. Good thing is that me waiting around let me wait for my mail to get here and I got all my coupons. Not a HUGE amount, but enough to broaden my deals a bit!!!

[Katlady]

Another transaction:
6 Degree deodorant ($3.19 psp)-$2.50 (.75/1 Q)
2 Chex Mix ($2.69 psp)-$1.67 (.50/1 Q)
1 Lemon Snapple ($6.99 psp) ($1/1 IP)
$11.34 after Q's. Got $15 OYNO. Paid w/cats from previous transaction. Also will send in the Snapple rebate. Thanks jlondon.

I may try to triple it tomorrow.

[Beckysue510]

As soon as DH gets home (this is the longest 20 mins ever!) I'm headed out to try the triple. I'll report back soon!

Where did you get the $1/1 Snapple IP? I've seen them for the 12 packs but not the 6 packs....and I have a rule, cannot buy anything unless I have a q, .

[rachelhale]

Okay, just got back and did another 2 scenarios...

6 BC Warm Delight Minis, .50/1 qs
3 Country Crock, .35/1 qs
2 Honey Nut Cheerios, $1/1 qs

OOP after qs $10.57.

3 BC Cookie Mix, .40/1 qs
5 BC Warm Delights Minis, .50/1 qs
2 All Small & Mighty, .40/1 qs

OOP $12.24 afte qs

[Beckysue510]

So the triples did not work for me. The manager came over while my cats were printing and changed the cash drawer. When she did this she pressed a button on the cat machine ....I'm wondering if this stopped the rest of the cats from printing?? So I'm trying this deal again tomorrow at SCO.

I did get the $30 and I came out ahead so it's still good. I'll post the scenario in a few.

I'd love to know though if anyone does the triples successfully.

[missydo1]

a friend of mine went out today and did 2 triples..the first store he bought the lavender all which isnt working so he only got $30 back vs 45 but second store he got all $45 after i told him the lavander wasnt working...so it is working great

It seems to be working on Shelf price - which is how most of them work. The only problem is if it doesn't print sometimes they don't believe you that it should have.


Stefani - thanks for starting this thread. I havent been on much the last couple days and my head is spinning. I need to study what you guys are doing! I'm way behind.

I don't know-I double checked before I used it and it was on the 6 pk. I had a second one I printed, but misplaced it-amazing how much time I'll spend looking for a piece of paper worth $1.

[amesnbella]

I've done this a few times today...

Breyers x 6
which comes to $15 and change...use the $4q/5 brings it to $11...and change..then I've been getting items I need to fill to the $15 cat. Rinse and Repeat...
I have given alot of ice cream away to my neighbors already.

I'm pretty sure I'm down the road from you too ... but we don't need any more!!

[lmac0918]

I just did a double transaction... I got

Suave Shampoo (diff. varieties) @ 1.89 x4
Suave Bodywash (diff. varieties)@ 2.99 x4 (I just realized that one variety of bodywash didn't ring on sale- I think it was "calming lavender" or something. But it did work for the cat deal)
Country Crock (regular) @ 2.69 x2
Chex Mix (diff. varieties... it was seriously picked over- who took all the Chex Mix in plymouth, MA? ;-) ) @ 2.69 x6
Brownie Mix (just got Original)@ 2.89 x2
Lipton Tea 100ct @ 3.49 x2
And a Fiber One yogurt @ 2.99

Total presale 62.99, sale price minus coupons 35.16, after cats and dollar doublers 16.16.

I don't think I'd dare a triple transaction, although I got $6/$80 coupons in the mail yesterday (which I had to fish out of the recycle bin today- I laughed at the idea of spending $80 at Shaw's).. The cashiers seem pretty freaked out when 6 $5 cats spit out of the machine, I'm sure 9 would push them over the edge. That's it for me until my coupons that I ordered come (I hope they come tomorrow!) and then I can stockpile me some granola bars, tea bags, and Chex Mix...

[stefani1]

Did 2 quick runs tonight. Didn't plan anything so I could have probably doubled it together and done better, but I'm happy. I just can't stand when I have to pay oop because I don't get enough to make it to another $5 to use my cats!!!

5 All used $1/1
1 chex mix used $.50/1

Paid with previous $10 cat and $3 something oop got $15 in cats

2nd transaction -
2 hellmans - used $.60/1
2 Breyers - used $1/1
4 Chex mix (I think)- used $.50/1
Gallon of milk (not part of deal)

Used free milk cat
used $5 cat from previous transaction and paid $3 something oop and got back $15.

I know I made money from these, but I still hate that I have to spend oop to get it. I'll try and come up with better scenerios before I go so I can use my cats to get closer to a $0 oop. I usually throw in fruit or meat or something, but I only had half an hour to do what I could do!!

[mgolden]

Let's see how I do with posting scenarios...To sum it up, I started the day with $27 in CAT's from Dove double dip last night (rolled some Cat's for that too) and ended the day with $27 in CAT's, so that was a wash...spent $10.19 OOP, and I believe I got over $400 in groceries...Even met new people today, sister's and husbands of Q'ers I know...Did this in several trips, my hubby was a HUGE help!!
