My Safeway P&G Scenario


So there aren't many other products other than what's listed in the ad that are participating in the P&G promotion. Here's what I came up with for the lowest initial out of pocket on the products I know I need/use.

1 Magic Eraser X-tra power $3.50
1 Dawn Direct Foam 300ml. $2.49 (-$.50 e-saver)
1 Dawn Hand Renewal 19oz. $2.49
1 Duracell AA 8pk. $5.99 (-$1 e-saver)
1 Charmin 24 pk. $12.99 (I had been expecting a $1 e-saver to come off, but it didn't. Maybe because I purchased the Ultra Advanced type?)
Total $27.46

Used:
-$.75 Magic Eraser mfq from Home Made Simple coupon booklet
-$1.50 Dawn DF mfq from Home Made Simple coupon booklet
-$1 mfq Dawn HR mfq from Home Made Simple coupon booklet
-$.50 Duracell mfq (didn't realize the Ultra Advanced type was part, will use the $1.50 mfq next time)
-$.25 Charmin mfq
-$2 DBL
Final Total: $19.96 & get $10 Catalina (basically you're getting all that for $9.96!)


Another scenario: Thanks Doaa!
1 Charmin 24 double rolls $12.99 (-$1 e-saver)
1 Bounty 12 big rolls $12.99 (-$1 e-saver)
Total: $25.98

Use:
-$.25 Charmin mfq
-$.25 Bounty mfq
-$.50 DBL
Final Price: $22.98 & get $10 catalina

I plan on rolling this a couple times to stock up on batteries and TP!

I am kinda exscited about this promotion...yesterday I went in and did it and had a lot of trouble with the catalina printing out...I had to talk to a manager, and then she had to talk to her manager, and then they tried printing a catalina out, and it wouldnt even print for them...so in the end they just gave me A rain check for $10...hopefully next time will be easier...OH, and one of the managers told me that she didnt think I would get a catalina, since my total was less than $25, but that was AFTER coupons...and the other manager said NO, it should work if her products were $25 before coupons...so I guess it helps to talk to the right manager... :) I was nice about it though...I think they get a lot of mean couponers in there...and they were suprised that i just was nice and patient...You definately dont want to make the manager mad!

Hi Jayne,
same thing happened to me yesterday too. There are yellow tags that say Spend $25 Get $10 back and then other tags that say e.g. $6.99, buy 3 & get them for $5.99 ea. So that messed me up. At least the Promo goes until 3/2 and we will have more time to get better scenario's together.

Today was a lot better...I got laundry detergent, dishwasher soap, 3 big packs of batterys, and used coupons, and my $10 from yesterday, and it came to around $12, and I got the $10 cat...so good! I think yesterday there were still some kinks in the system...
