Here's a transaction I did at Weis this week over and over again.
Weis had Carnation Evaporated Milk on sale for $1 a can. I had a stack of $.50/2 ManuQs, which my store doubled to $1/2(only 4 of the same coupon in a single transaction are doubled). Not only is Evaporated Milk necessary for making pumpkin or sweet potato pie, but it's a great shelf-stable milk product for cooking, baking and cream soup making so a good thing in a stockpile.
Weis also had a 'deal' where if you bought 5 Betty Crocker products you received an automatic $2 off your transaction. I had BC Frosting Manu Qs for .50/1 that doubled(up to 4 in a single transaction), so I did this transaction(either alone or with other items) 4 times over the course of the week....
