Potential small Money maker at Safeway stores

Silly me went to Randall's and forgot to print the $3 Similac baby formula coupon before I left.  I have been noticing these clearance formula and multiple Randall's I have been and had  I had this coupon with me, it would have been a .50 profit on each one.  Then, on top of that,  I could donate to the women's shelter as they are always in need of formula, diapers, baby food etc.

 I suggest printing this coupon and having it handy for your next Randall's run.  Here is what is should look like rung up.


Will ring up $4.99.
Then cashier will ring up 50% sticker that will take off $2.50
Then your IP will take off $3 (should be beepless because the formula rang up $4.99)
Then, you will have -.51 overage to buy whatever you need or want (per formula you buy)

I am off to print the coupons, then to bed :)

I have shopped that store and have not had a problem. Only problem is when the face value of coupon is more than the initial ring up price of the product.

I actually got overage on mentos at that store this weekend. They had some marked with 50% tag and I used the $1 coupons (just used 1 less coupon that what I bought)
Ex, buy 6 @ .99 each - .50 each for 50% tag - $5 (one less coupon that what I purchased) = 2.06 OVERAGE :)

I dunno then cause i went last night and had bought the same thing just two and the first coupon beeped at me. lol The guy pushed it thru but, ya, always on the mark downs if i have a coupon. I also get told you cant use a coupon with a reduced price item...but I usually get them to do it anyway. Or i just dont get the item. That is the store I always go to...you get around :D The next closest is at aprox memorial and the 8, and they have a self check that you can scan your own coupons! Did you clear out the formula, cause i was gonna go get 2 bottles tonight :)How often do you come up this way? I have some of those science diet cat coupons for you but i been lazy and havent mailed them out...have to look up your address from long ago.

If anyone in the Greenway plaza area wants to donate their Similac I do foster care and I'm always in need of Formula until I can take the kids down to the WIC office. I always need Similar Neo Sure or Just Similac Advanced. I also know a ton of other Foster families in the area I can pass along to.

You can reach me at KHBolander@hotmail.com

Thanks!

lol Denise, yes I get around sometimes :P
I typically hit those stores on the weekends and no I have yet to buy the formula as I didn't have the coupons with me. My picture was taken at a store in Katy, not yours :)
I prefer the second store you listed, much friendlier than the first (one of the cashier's from your first store is a transplant from a store near me that went out of business.)

I had to reformat my harddrive and lost a lot of my contacts, Ill pm you on HCW and find out when your gonna be around and maybe get you the kitty coupons :) Couple other things, I have noticed a few "new" cashiers at this store that seem to be able to deal with coupons a bit better. There is one girl there I really!!!! like!!! but I can never pronounce her name. Second thing is I went to do the similac to help with overage for diapers and they rang up for $8.xx and I was like...hmm, this isnt going to work so we stood there and had a convo with the cashier I REALLY like and she just gave me $4 more bucks off so it eneded up being a little more than 50% savings...I got diapers for a buck after all said and done! woot! they were luvs at that LOL I really havent done much shopping at the "friendly one" down by the kids school, been in there twice I think, so not much experience, I am starting to get out of my Kroger shell and venture out to more store for better deal :D I am so glad I found your blog (almost 4 years ago now) <3

Wow, I'll have to check for this deal! My twins were born prematurely and use Neo Sure. If you are interested in selling your stock of it, let me know :)
