Weis this Week & the P&G Catalina Deal

Remember my previous post about buying multiple newspapers to get multiple coupons HERE? I mentioned that the Sunday coupon inserts from June 28th contained a regional coupon for $10 off a $50 order at Weis Markets.
Weis is also having a Proctor & Gamble OYNO Cat Promo this week. When you buy $35 of select P&G products you get a $10 OYNO Coupon. (This sale ends tonight, so get down to Weis today if you plan on doing this deal.)
Well I just HAD TO pair that $10/50 with this P&G Deal and see what I could do.

2x Olay Body Wash @$2.00=$4.00

Coupon Total....$35.30

$53.10-$35.30=$17.80OOP
Received a $10 OYNO coupon.
I also can send for the Raisin Bran Crunch TRY ME FREE Offer. Not sure from the receipt whether I'll get back $4.39 or $2.00 on that....so ultimately, my OOP is either $14.31 or $15.80 on this order.

I did screw up here though. I have a rebate form for the DiGiorgno Flatbread Melt for a full rebate on the purchase price. But I need the receipt to send for that. I bought the Cereal with a TMF rebate in the same order and the receipt is needed for that too!
Ugh.
So I'll lose out getting back $2 on that one.
It goes to show that even when you write things down and prep fully before going into the store, you can still goof it up! 8-P

Onward to my 2nd Transaction....

1x $10 OYNO Coupon

Coupon Total....$45.05

$51.05-$45.05=$6.00OOP
And I received another $10 OYNO Coupon.
I can also send for the full Refund Price Rebate on the Cereal to my BIL, so that another $2-$4.39 off the OOP.

I just realized that my 2nd order was NOT $50...it was $49.46 before the tax. I had another DiGiorgno FlatBread Melt in this order but had the cashier void it out when I realized I couldn't send for both the cereal and the flatbread melt on the same receipt. She had already used the $10 off $50 coupon but before she rang up the coupon for the Flatbread Melt.
So I was short .54¢ on my order. Oh, I won't lose sleep over it.
Really.
I've spend how much over the years in that store? And how many times have I been overcharged for stuff?
This particular Weis Store will just have to get over this one slip-up on my part.
Serves them right for being about the ONLY STORE on the PLANET that still WON'T ACCEPT INTERNET PRINTED COUPONS!!
Do Ya Hear that WEIS!!??

Yah, I have issues with Weis.....does it show? 8-P

So let's recap today's Adventures in Grocery Shopping.....
2 Orders.
$152.27 in regular retail value groceries
$23.80 spent Out of Pocket
$48.12 in store sales/discounts
$80.35 in coupons
$128.47 in total Savings
A Savings of 85.5%

PLUS a $10 OYNO Coupon for next time.....and Full Refunds on 2 Boxes of Cereal.

Not a bad morning's work....
