I went tonight to get more free rice a roni with the $.50 Q's and I used the handheld scanner since I was only getting a few things (not sure if these are in all the stores yet). Anyway I totally didn't realize that when you use the handheld you get deals just for using it that aren't given to the general "public" so to speak. While I was walking it gave me a $.50 off of Pasta Roni, so I used my $.50 Q which is doubled to $1.00 for 3 rice a ronis which were only $.88 each with teh $.50 off!!! This thread has nothing except my stuff, so I'm hoping that I'm helping someone out!!!

i must have missed this.

rice a roni is on sale for how much this week?

[stefani1]

rice a roni is on sale for 10/$10 ($1 each). There is the IP $.50 Q out there and S&S doubles so they would be free. If you want to mix it up, use the handheld and you can get the pasta roni for $.88 and use the Q for overage!

Just great, thanks...I'll get this to donate since we don't eat it. Yes, the handheld has good deals sometimes. In April I got the sargento cheese on sale ($2.50 I think), special handheld promo (another $0.50 off?) and $1/2 q. I was happy. I've also gotten good deals on hood sour cream, chicken thighs, and produce with it.

HTH...

i had no idea s&s even doubled! thanks..

[stefani1]

Yup!! They double everything up to a dollar!! So I find the $.75Q's to be the best ones since they are worth $1.50 after the double!!! YAY!!!!

I haven't even heard of the handheld scanner. I'll have to check it out around here. Thanks.

Is that like self checkout?

[queenbear]

Seriously unfair...My stop and shop stopped taking printables 2 years ago..I'm soo jealous

[_rori]

i only thought price choppers doubled around here.

yay.

the hand held is the self check out right?

[stefani1]

ummmm - the handheld is an actual device that you get when you walk into the store. You scan your items as you walk around the store and bag them in your cart as you shop. When your done shopping you just have to use that handheld device to scan a barcode and all the information goes to the cashiers register and your done. You would then give the cashier the coupons - or you could just go to the self checkout lines and scan the barcode and it would register in that register and you could do your own coupons - I prefer not to do this since the coupons beep and someone usually has to come ovr and help anyway. I hope this explained it better. It's not just the self checkout line that you go on when your done, its an actual device you use to scan your items as you shop. Because you use this, it "dings" as you shop with deals that you can get that aren't advertised in the papers.

This sounds fun. I wish we had one here.
