Okay, down to business. I will do this one store at a time. I went to four stores. The first was Albertsons.
They were running a promotion where if you buy 10 participating General Mills products you got $5 off instantly. I did this deal twice in two separate transactions. I also did the deal where if you buy 5 Hamburger Helpers you got a $2 of chicken, beef or tuna catalina. This week was Albertsons double coupon advertisement. You could double 3 coupons per transaction.
Transaction #1:
- 9 Hamburger, chicken and tuna Helpers @ $0.99/ea (after $5 savings) and I had 3 $0.75/3 MQ which doubled 3 times so $1.50/3, 3 times = $0.49 per box x 9 = $4.41 for all 9.
- 1 Old El Paso Taco Seasoning $0.49 (after savings)
- 2 Minute Maid Singles $1 - $0.50 = $0.50/ea = $1 (10/$10 mix and match sale)

- 4 Old El Paso Taco Seasoning @ $0.49/ea = $1.96
- 4 Yoplait Go-Gurts $2.49 (after instant savings) - 2 $0.75/2 and I doubled each so $1.50/2 (x2) = $1.74/ea or $6.96 for all 4
- 2 Chex Mix $1.99 (after savings) - $0.50/2 that I doubled so $1/2 = $1.49/ea or $2.98 for both.

My plan got thrown off a little here so my total was more than I expected. They were running a promotion where if you bought 8 participating products, you got $0.50 off each item. I had read that Ronzoni pasta was a part of this deal and I have a bunch of coupons for it but OF COURSE none of the varieties I had in my coupons were a part of the deal.
- 4 boxes of Ronzoni pasta @ $0.89/ea (price when you buy 8 products) = $3.56
