Hot Albertsons Cereal/Milk Deal!

So if you didn't get enough cereal last week at Albertsons now is your chance! Starting March 24th Albertsons is having a sale on Kellogg's cereal. Many have said that there will be doublers on Sunday so this deal is best if you wait for them. Here's the scenario.

Kellogg's Cereal is $1.79
Use $1/2 from 3/7 RP
Final Price: $.79 a box after doubler
But you also get a catalina for free milk(any brand up to $4.19) to use on your next order when you buy more.
Buy 3-4 get 1 free gallon of milk
Buy 5-6 get 2 free gallons of milk
Buy 7 or more, get 3 free gallons of milk on your next order.

For the best scenario this is how your first transaction should look.
Buy 7 boxes at $1.79=$12.53
Use 3 $1/2 coupons and 3 doublers=-6
Final Price= $6.53 OOP + tax (this would be a good time to use some of those catalinas up from last weeks deals!)
Get back 3 free milk coupons(4.19 off each)

Each transaction after the first:
7 boxes at $1.79 each=$12.53
Buy 3 gallons of the off brand milk @ $2.29 each=+$6.87
=$19.40 + tax
-6 for 3 coupons and 3 doublers
-12.57 (Use your 3 free milk coupons @ $4.19 off each)
Final Price=$.83 + tax for 7 boxes of cereal and 3 gallons of milk!! Sweet!

For those of you who need more coupons e-bay has a ton right now that will come in time for you to buy cereal next week after doublers come out. And you might think about placing an order if you want to go crazy and get a ton. That way you won't clear the shelf and you'll be sure to get what you want.

Thanks to my sister- in- law, Natricia, for working out these awesome scenarios.

Can we use the $.70 off blinkies that were at Safeway? I have a few of those left?

Tricia said...

You can use any Kellogg's manufacturer coupons for these particular cereals. The only thing with blinkies, is that they usually say "do not double." So you'd have to calculate that in. But since the best way to do it is to buy 7 boxes in each transaction, it'd be great to use 3 of the $1/2 coupons and one of your $.70 coupons (assuming it's off of one.)

Oh, FYI, not all Kellogg's cereals will be priced at $1.79. The ad says "starting at $1.79." But the ones that I know are at that price are 20 oz Raisin Bran, 12 oz Rice Krispies, and I can't remember the size, but: Frosted Flakes, Frosted Mini Wheats, and Fruit Loops. There might be others too!

Nikki said...

Yes, they will!

My Albertsons would not deduct $4.19. The register beeped and the cashier keyed in the amount for the milk...bummer!
