Got:
One 10 pound bag of potatoes
4 trial sized packets of Airborne – on sale for $2.19, used four $2/1 coupons from the 9/7 Smart Source newspaper inserts. Free plus .31 cents of overage each after doubles.
12 boxes of instant Quaker oatmeal – on sale for $1.57, used 12 $1/1 coupons. .07 cents a box after doubles!
Safeway is running a “48 hour sale” today and tomorrow. The Quaker oatmeal is one of the promotional items, temporarily reduced to $1.57. There are lots of $1 off coupons out there, so here’s a list:
Printables:
$1 off any Quaker instant oatmeal – this has a generous print limit, so you can print 8 per computer! Just hit the back button after each coupon prints. Thanks to Abundant Food Savings for the link!
You can also print two more from the Quaker Oatmeal website. There is another printable here, but I can’t get it to work. Thanks to Hot Coupon World for these links!
Inserts:
A coupon for $1/1 High Fiber Quaker Instant Oatmeal can be found in the 10/19 Red Plum and 9/7 Red Plum newspaper inserts.
A coupon for $1/1 Quaker Simple Harvest Multi-Grain cereal (which is also on sale for $1.57) can be found in the 9/21 Smart Source newspaper inserts.
At .07 cents a box after doubles, this is a great stock-up price. Each box contains at least 8 (and sometimes 10) packets, so that’s less than a penny per serving. That’s a pretty cheap breakfast, and the boxes I bought don’t expire until 2010!
There was lots of oatmeal in stock at my store, but if yours is all out, be sure to get a rain check so that you can take advantage of this deal!
Also of interest to Oregonians – it was mentioned on Hot Coupon World that there is another $10/50 Safeway coupon coming out in Sunday’s Oregonian. I haven’t seen the Sunday paper yet to confirm, but I thought I should give you guys the heads-up! This could come in handy for the “Home For The Holidays” promo.
