So you guys either I am really, really missing something here or this promotion is a great big stinker to me.
One other deal I noticed:
Buy 2 Ocean Spray Juices 64oz at $2.00 and get a free 4pk of Ocean Spray Sparking Drinks
I am not seeing any coupons for Ocean Spray right now and the 4pks are only $.50 after coupon this week anyway.
See more Safeway Deals for the week here and if you want to hunt around for more coupons, check out the coupon database.
What size are the cereal boxes?
I think it’s because you’re suppose to get $5 when you buy 5 items, not $1.
It has great big stinker all over it! 😉 I think my bulk will be from Raleys this week. 🙂
Melissa, I think the math is the same right? I am a little confused by what you mean. Let’s say I purchased 5 Raisin Bran at $2.79. Then I get $5 off at checkout. Isn’t that the same as paying $1.79 per box when you buy 5 items? I just listed the individual prices per item because I was thinking that people would want to mix and match items and not buy 5 of the same.
Shannon you can check your ad for the sizes on all the different items because I didn’t make notes of those. They are standard boxes- probably 12oz- not family size boxes.
