My Scenario for Albies Doublers

So, I think everybody knows by now that there are going to be doublers at Albies on Sunday! Here's what I will be doing on Sunday to take advantage of 4 different catalina offers and 1 mail-in rebate!!! Woot woot!

My list:

5 Kraft dressings $2.19 ea
1 Kraft BBQ sauce $1.19
4 Shake n Bakes $2 ea
5 Cool Whips $1 ea.
2 Honey Maid graham crackers $2.49 ea.

=$30.12

-$3 (Albies B6/G$3 off promo)
-$2.75 (.55 Kraft dressing Q from here or SS 5/2 x5)
-$3 (.75 Shake n Bake Q from here x4)
-$2 ($1 Honey Maid tearpad Q x2)
-$2.75 (Albies doublers)

=$16.62 oop, but I'll get a $3 cat for the Kraft dressing, $3 cat for the Shake n Bake (ends on Sunday!!!!), $3 cat for the Cool Whip and a $5 cat for the Kraft promo itself. I also have the Kraft rebate from the Facebook freebie that they gave out a while back, so I'll get another $10 back = $7.38 Moneymaker!!!!

If you have a catalina from last week's Conagra promo (like me!) you'll be able to roll that into this deal and have an oop of only $6.62, so a $17 Moneymaker!

-$1.20 in paper Qs for the BC potatoes
-$3.75 in paper Qs for the Mission tortillas (3/7 SS)
