My Slammin deal today at Safeway!!!

TOTAL: $1.96


So...I went to Safeway today because the Betty Crocker Fruit by the Foot, Fruit roll ups and such are all on sale 4/$4 when you buy 4 in a transaction...great deal I know...but to make the deal even sweeter, when you buy 4 you get a catalina print out for $2.50 off your next order(this expires Jan 24)! You can find printable coupons for these items on sites such as http://www.bettycrocker.com/ and http://www.smartsource.com/. Don't forget to go to http://www.shortcuts.com/ and http://www.cellfire.com/ to load coupons on your card, coupons for these items are available at both. Also, there were coupons for .50/2 in the newspaper from 1/10...Remember Safeway has a deal right now that all coupons are worth $1.00! They are also having the sale on cereal as noted in my previous post Safeway Cereal sale 1/20-1/26. Also, Hershey's candy bars are on sale buy 3 get 3 free...this matched up to some great coupons of buy 1 get 1 free from the newspaper of 1/10. If you buy 6 or more in a transaction and use 3 of those coupons for every six that you buy....they are FREE! Yes...FREE!



I did a total of 4 transactions so that I could use the $2.50 catalina from the previous transaction for the following transaction and so on and so on....if you want a complete breakdown....email me and I will email you scans of my receipts so you can see the breakdown of how it worked.
