Albertson Catalina

Just a note on the current Catalina deal at Albertsons:

Spend $10-$14.99 - get $2 OYNO
Spend $15-$24.99 - get $5 OYNO
Spend $25 or more - get $10 OYNO

With the doublers out - option number two (spend $15 get $5) is another less complicated way to shop. The percentage of savings is actually a little greater if you use this option (assuming you will use a set of doublers and have $1.00/1 coupons). It is essentially a 54% discount compared to 52%. I know it is minimal but it may be worth it to use a few extra set of doublers or if you only need a few of the GM items.

Doubler Ideas:

Buy:
2 All Small & Mighty 3x = $9.00
2 Breyers ice cream = $6.00

Use:
2 ($1/1) All printable coupons Here
2 ($1/1) Breyers RP-5/17

Total = $15 - $4 (coupons) - $3 (doublers) = $8
- $5 OYNO = $3

or

Buy:
2 All Small & Mighty 3x = $9
1 Breyer Ice Cream = $3
2 I Can't Believe It's Not Butter baking cubes = $4

Use:
2 ($1/1) All printable coupons Here
1 ($1/1) Breyers RP-5/17

2 ($.75/1) I Can't Believe It's Not Butter - RP 3/29

Total = $15 - $4.50 (coupons) - $3 (doublers) = $7.50
- $5 OYNO = $2.50

I just came from Albertson's and was going to post this very same thing! Here's what I got tonight:

3 Dasani 24 pack = 13.5
1 Bertolli = 2.00
=15.50
-$3 in Dasani coupons (peelies from a while ago)
-$3 doublers
-.75 Bertolli coupon, unilever 4/5
= $8.75
factor in $5 catalina = $3.75

I did this transaction twice at the Eagle/McMillan store. FYI, they DO have doublers at customer service (I heard the 10 mile store doesn't), and they were completely OUT of GoGurts.

I don't know if it is like this at all stores but at my Albertsons in Oregon you have to spend $25 AFTER all your coupons to get the $10 catalina to print. So I spent $30 before coupons...ended up being around $20 after coupons and I only got a $5 catalina. Is anyone else having the same problem??

I've never heard of that before. I know that all the Boise and Meridian, ID locations that I have shopped at always print the catalina if you spend $25 BEFORE coupons. I am pretty sure most the Utah stores work this way as well. Sorry to hear that!
