Free Fruit Snacks at Safeway (Randalls, Tom Thumb)


I got 5 boxes of fruit snacks for free (after catalina) today at Randalls.
The fruit snacks are on sale for .99 each wyb at least 4 in a single transaction.
There is also a catalina deal right now for Betty Crocker fruit snacks:
Buy 3 get $1,
Buy 4 get $2,
or Buy 5 or more get $3

I purchased 5 and used 1 .50/2 insert 1-2 GM (doubled) or $.50/2 IP
and 2 .50/2 cellfire came off my order as well.

So my transaction looked like this:
.99 x 5 = 4.95
-.50 insert doubled
-.50 cellfire
-.50 cellfire
= $2.95 paid at register and got back $3 off catalina.
For those new to couponing, this can be used for anything in the store (excluding tobacco, alcohol, lottery tickets, etc)

Also, for those new, at Randalls, when you load coupons to your card, all like coupons come off once you purchase the minimum requirement of that coupon, BUT you cannot combine ecoupons with paper coupons. The register will cancel out the ecoupons if you use a paper coupon on the same item.  (You will only have access to one of the loadable coupons right now, because they are only available to load for 2 weeks, but are good for a month.  You might want to consider loading them for a future sale though)

In my transaction above, I purhased 5 boxes, using a paper coupon on 2, that leaves 3 boxes that the ecoupons can attach themselves. If I had used another paper coupon for 2 more boxes, the two ecoupons would have voided themselves.

You could also do the transaction above using 1 .50/2 IP and 1 $1/3 IP with the same results.
If you print two of each, you could do the transaction twice.  On the second transaction, you could add a small item like a banana and pay with the first $3 and a little change, and get another $3 oynso!

Don't forget the Chobani Yogurt for 97¢, use the 30¢ IP (http://www.chobani.com/coupons) to get it for 7¢!! This would make a sweet filler to use to roll the catalina as long as they key the cat in as a food item & not a taxable item otherwise you would have overage.

so confused! I bought 5 boxes, used the 1/2 insert and loaded the cellfireQ...the register only took off 1 cellfire. Still a wonderful deal, but did I do something wrong? totally new to Randalls-don't understand any of it. Can you recommend where I can get a tutorial? thank you:)
