AMAZING Deals on Kellogg's/Keebler Products at Albertsons this Week!!

I saw this deal in the Albertsons ad this morning, but before I posted about it I wanted to go up to the store and see how it actually worked. Let me say that this is an AMAZING sale, and includes a lot of stuff that is great to stock up on...products that have a long shelf life and there are a lot of items that are included in this promotion that would make for great back to school treats. Note...the items aren't the healthiest, but everything in moderation, right? :)

The promotion that is being offered this week is buy 10 participating Kellogg's and Keebler products for $30.00 and get $10.00 off instantly...making 10 items for $20.00. PLUS once you check out a catalina for $10.00 will automatically print off. What is a catalina? A coupon good towards your next purchase at Albertsons. This coupon is not for any specific product, but can be used to lower the cost of your next purchase. A lot of times if you use a catalina to help lower the cost of the same deal a second time, an additional catalina will not print out. That is NOT the case at Albertsons this week!! You can do as many of these transactions as you want...pay with your first $10.00 catalina and still receive a second catalina!!

To make this deal even better, there are a LOT of coupons available for this deal. For those of you who are new to coupon shopping and have NO coupons, this is still an amazing deal!! If you have absolutely NO coupons your scenario would look something like this:
Buy 10 participating product $30.00
minus $10.00 (automatically deducted at register)
Final Price: Pay $20.00 and receive a $10.00 catalina
Do this deal a second time
Buy 10 participating products $30.00
minus $10.00 (automatically deducted at register)
minus $10.00 catalina from first transaction
Final Price: Pay $10.00 and receive a $10.00 catalina

You will have bought 20 products and spent $30.00...and still have $10.00 left for your next transaction!!

BUT this deal gets a WHOLE lot BETTER!!! Albertsons has coupons available right at the store that correspond with these deals. I took about 5 minutes to walk around the store and found SEVERAL coupons that work with this promotion!!

Examples:

-coupon for $1.00 off two Keebler Wheatables crackers (found on the cracker aisle by the Wheatables crackers

-coupon for $1.00 off two Kellogg's Fruit Snacks (found on cereal aisle by the Fruit Snacks)

-coupon for $2.00 off two Keebler Chips Deluxe Cookies (found right on the packages...I've also seen these coupons on packages of cookies at Wal-Mart and HEB)

-coupon for $1.00 off milk when you purchase two Mother's Cookies (found on the cookie aisle by the Mother's cookies)

There are also numerous coupons for these products online and in the newspapers:

-coupon for $1.00 off two Pop-Tarts (found in 7/11 RedPlum insert)

-coupon for $1.00 off two Frosted Mini Wheats (found in 7/11 RedPlum insert)

-coupons for $1.00 off two Pop-Tarts (found here this site also has several coupons for various Kellogg's cereals that are part of this promotion)

If you are able to use these coupons you will greatly reduce your out of pocket expenses!!

Pretend Scenario based on coupons available at the store and online (for those of you just starting out and don't already have coupons).

BUY:
2 Keebler Wheatables Crackers
-use coupon for $1.00 off two (found in store)

2 Kellogg's Fruit Snacks
-use coupon for $1.00 off two (found in store)

2 Keebler Chips Deluxe Cookies
-use coupon for $2.00 off two (found on packages at store)

2 Kellogg's Pop-Tarts
-use coupon for $1.00 off two (found here)

2 Kellogg's Frosted Mini Wheats
-use coupon for $1.00 off two (found here)

Your total before coupons and sale promotions will be $30.00. $10.00 will automatically be deducted at the register. $6.00 will be deducted from your coupons. You will end up paying $14.00 AND will receive a $10.00 Catalina. If you decide to do this exact same scenario a second time (using all of the same coupons and your $10.00 catalina from your first transaction) you will only pay $4.00 AND will receive a second $10.00 catalina!! An AWESOME deal!!

Just wanted to give you a heads up on this sale and give you a pretend scenario in case you are just starting out. For those of you who have been using coupons for awhile, you should have a large assortment of coupons that will work GREAT with this sale!! Remember, stock up when you find items at rock bottom prices, break up your shopping trip into different transactions, and use one catalina to lower your out of pocket expenses, and in return, get an additional catalina!! Have fun shopping!!
