Potatoes @ QFC


Until Sunday (4/18) there is a pretty hot deal on Betty Crocker potatoes at QFC. Buy 3 boxes @$1 ea. and get a $3 catalina = free! Even better if you have coupons from here, here, here or from the 3/28 SS or $1/2 peelies like have been spotted at Albertsons. I did 3 transactions:


Transaction #1:

3 boxes of BC potatoes = $3

-$1.20 in eCoupons from Shortcuts and Cellfire
-$1.40 in paper coupons (one $1/2 and one .40)

=.40 and I got a $3 cat!

Transaction #2:

3 boxes of BC potatoes = $3
5 Mission corn tortillas = $5

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

=.05 and I got another $3 cat!

Transaction #3:

3 BC potatoes = $3
1 Horizon milk box = $1 (gotta make the kids happy)

-.80 in BC Qs (only had two of the .40 ones left)
-$3 cat

=.20 and I got another $3 cat!
In total I got 9 boxes of potatoes, 5 packages of tortillas and 1 organic milk for .65 and I still have a $3 catalina to spend! Woohoo!
Thanks Queen Bee for the heads-up on this deal!
