The deal of the year I do believe

My crazy friend Teri found a HUGE money maker tip last week about a sale at Winn-Dixie this week. So, she planned ahead, and let me in on it as well. She found this deal over at Thrifty Florida Mama

Here's the deal. Glade Plug -ins were Buy One Get One Free (BOGO). There is a BOGO free coupon. This works out to two free Glade Plug-ins. Then, Winn-Dixie added that they would print off a $1.00 coupon from their catalina machine for each plug in. This $1 coupon can be used at any grocery store on your next purchase because it's a "manufacturer coupon". So...here's what I did.

I bought 20 BOGO coupons from Teri (who ordered a crazy amount last week). I was able to purchase 40 Glad plug-ins (BOGO sale and BOGO Q) and pay only tax $.06/each. Then, each plug in gave me $1.00 back. So...I should have bought 40 plug ins for $2.40 and received $40 in catalina coupons. But...the deal gets sweeter.

I found out last night at our Clipper Chicks meeting, that my friend Sky (who also did this deal with Teri) purchased, sort of on a whim, 2 Juicy Juice Immunity boxes because they were on sale and she had coupons. Low and behold...the catalina printed MORE Juicy Juice coupons AND a $1.00 catalina for each juice she bought.

So...using the above knowledge and a coupon for a free package of diapers and a free package of wipes...here's what I bought....



40 Glade Plug-ins (first come first serve...who wants them? I don't, haha)
12 boxes of Juicy Juice Immunity and Brain Booster
1 34 ct. pck of diapers
1 64 ct. pck of wipes.

I did 6 transactions and spent $7.40 and received 36 Catalina $1 coupons back.
Now, my total out of pocket was way to high. I should have only spent $3.40...but I wasn't paying attention at first and paid for my first few transactions with my own cash intead of handing over some of my $1 catalinas. So...that stinks...I wasted $4.00

Oh well.

Here's what my purchase should have cost me
Glad plug ins $79.60
Juicy Juice $35.88
Diapers $7.99
Wipes $3.59
Grand Total (without sales/coupons) $206.66

Total Savings $199.26
PLUS $36 in Coupons to use at any grocery store (here I come Publix!)

Honestly though, I don't care about the plug ins. BUT...the Juicy Juice and diapers/wipes is an amazing deal. I'm happy to have paid $7.40 out of pocket for all that juice, diapers AND wipes.

Thanks Teri on the heads up of the amazing deal.

And Tiffy...I know your going to make fun of having all this glade stuff. Ask Chris if he wants me to bring you half of them *wink* *wink* haha.
