I did 2 Transactions.....
Transaction #1
10 Assorted Keebler Cookies @ $2.54ea.=$25.40
4 Milkbone Treats @ $2.99=$11.96
SubTotal=$37.36
Coupons Used
4 $1/1 Keebler Cookies=$4
4 $.55/1 Keebler Cookies=$2.20
4 $2/1 Milkbone Treats Peelies=$8.00
Total=$14.20
$37.36-$14.20=$23.16+$.24 tax=$23.40OOP
And I received 2 $5 Gift Cards. One for each set of 5 packages of Keebler Cookies bought.
My 10 cookies in one transaction qualifies for the $10 Fuel for School Rebate Here.
So I now have $10 in Target money to spend and will get $10 back from Keebler/Kellogg's for my $23.40 purchase, so the cookies & dog treats 'cost' me $11.40
**A quick note.....those Milkbone treats are some new product line-Essentials Plus. Be on the lookout at Target for $2 PEELIES on the boxes &/or bags of soft treats. I just happened to walk by an endcap display of these(it was NOT a main aisle endcap, but a backend cap)& saw the $2 peelies. They are reg. $3.29-$3.49 a bag/box and were on sale for $2.99, so the peelie made them .99¢ each! I just had to grab some at that price for our 3 dogs.
Transaction #2
2 A-1 Steak Sauce @ $2.69ea.=$5.38 **Not pictured**
10 Assorted Kellogg's Cereals @ $1.88ea.=$18.80 **NOT PICTURED**why is explained below
4 Boxes of Milkbone Dog Bones @ $2.99=$11.96
10 Bottles of Sobe LifeWater @ $1.00=$10.00
SubTotal=$46.14
Coupons Used
2 $2/1 A-1 Steak Sauce=$4.00
10 $1/1 Kelloggs Cereal=$10.00
4 $2/1 Milkbone Treats=$8.00
2 BOGO Sobe=$2.00
Used Both of the Keebler Cookie Gift Cards=$10.00
Total=$34.00
$46.14-$34.00=$12.14+$.10tax=$12.24OOP
And I received another $5 Target Gift Card for buying 10 Sobe LifeWaters.
And the 10 Cereals also qualify for the Fuel for School Rebate and I can send for another $10 Rebate for the B-I-L.
Deduct the rebate and I paid $2.24 for transaction #2.
Wait! There's more.....
The reason that the 10 boxes of Cereal are NOT pictured is because I no longer have them.
I sold all 10 boxes at my Yard Sale on Saturday!
After the $1/1 coupons, I paid .88¢ per box and I sold them for $1.50 per box & Kellogg's is giving me back $10 for buying them.
Sooooo, I actually MADE $16.70 on those 10 boxes!!lol
I paid $.88 each x 10=$8.80.
Kellogg's is sending me $10 for buying them.
$8.80-$10=negative $1.20
Then I sold them for $1.50 each=$15.50
$1.20+$15.50=$16.70 back in my pocket!!
Look at it this way.
I spent OOP on 2 transactions a total of $35.64.
I made(after the rebate)$16.70 on the cereal. Subtract that from my OOP. $35.64-$16.70=$18.94
Then I'll get another $10 Rebate for the cookies. $18.94-$10=$8.94.
I'm OOP $8.94 in the end.
I have.....10 Sobes, 2 A-1 Sauces, 8 Milkbone boxes/bags, 10 packages of Cookies($64.70 worth of stuff) AND a $5 Target Gift Card.
It all cost me $8.94.
