Anyway, the mega event is going on and there are a handful of things you can get for free or cheap enough to even get me out to the store.
So here goes my list in no particular order of the noteworthy items you want to make sure are on your shopping list.
All prices listed are assuming you are buying in groups of 10(unlike Randalls you can't just buy 10 or more but MUST buy in GROUPS of 10- suggestion, bring reusable bags and put in your shopping cart. Put 10 mega items per bag to make sure you don't get your count off and put your other groceries loosely in your cart).

Are you saying Miracle Whip doesn't work @ Kroger or anywhere? Because I bought some last week @ Wags and my catalina printed.
Be on the lookout for Nestle TollHouse back to School Cookies on clearance, they are participating and there are insert 75¢ coupons.
Also if you still have the $1 off Capri Sun Coupons you can pick those up for 49¢/each.
I think you got most of the same deals I got Stephanie!
I also plan to get some of the Odwalla Juices/Smoothies. They are currently $1.49 after Mega. I ordered a bunch of $1/1 Qs from Recyclebank (50pts each)and will use them to nab these at 50¢ each!
Note that these are mailed Qs, so you need to order them ASAP if you want to use them next week!
The only other additional item I saw (but have not yet bought) was Lunchables with Smoothie/Fruit.
They were priced $2.49 (after Mega) at my store, and ALL of them had $1/2 peelies. There was also a $1/1 SS Q not too long ago. I just wasn't (and still am not) sure if they are part of the Kraft cat deal. Probably not.
I found I had used up all my Chex Mix IPs at Walgreens already, but fortunately there is a Kroger eQ for 50¢/1 available! So I used it, along with my SavingStar offer to essentially get a bag for free.
Also available(through the Promotions tab on the Kroger homepage) is a $1/5 Vitaminwater eQ. Unfortunately there are no Stripes stores in my neck of the woods, so I had to settle for 55¢ Vitaminwaters.
I did manage to do a little better with the Wheat Thins. Earlier this week, there was a Facebook IP available for $1/1 Wheat Thins "any Bold Flavor" varieties (so 49¢ each). Unfortunately, it doesn't look like this IP is still available.
Also, I maxed out the number of free Powerbar Energy Blasts I got by buying in groups of 6 and only using 1 Q per transaction. So with 4 Qs, I rolled the cat to get 24 free packs. And then got a $2/10 Powerbar product cat to use when my store restocks! (I wanted to leave some for others)
Other non-Mega items I looked at were:
Sunny-D @ $1
- 55¢/2 IP
= 73¢ each
Bushes Beans are still on sale 3/$5
- $1/2 IP or Kroger eQ
= $1.16 ea (not bad for the large cans)
Snausages @ $1.99
- $1.50/1 Coupons.com Members IP (no longer available?)
= 49¢
Anon are you talking about the Kraft cat or the separate $2 mayo cat? I have not personally tried but read several people not getting their cats with Miracle Whip
Glenn I bought the Lunchables with smoothie as part of my Catalina purchase, it worked! I did a separate purchase of just 10 Kraft items that were mega items to make sure it would work :-)
I bought the Miracle Whip & received the $10 catalina but not the separate $2 catalina.
Question: I'm new to the SavingStar site. The $5/15 Mac n Cheese says "sold out". So I'm guessing no one else can get that deal? AND... so every time you use a coupon from there it just saves that amount in your account?
One more question - The B2G1 Wheat Thins/Triscuits says "Redeemable at Walmart" on the front of the coupon. Does that mean it can ONLY be redeemed there?
Does anyone know if the Kraft shredded cheese is included in the mega?
@Anon: Yes, the shredded cheese varieties were included at my store. BUT be careful: in order for them to also qualify for the Kraft catalina they have to be 8oz.
Going over my receipts, I also forgot to mention one other item in the Mega that was a decent deal:
Boulder Canyon Chips @ $1.49 (after mega)
- $1/1 facebook IP
= 49¢ each
Sheila the kraft was there when I logged in the second time, first time it told me sold out too
Yes you can use the coupon for the nabisco because it doesn't say redeem ONLY at Walmart :D
