Where is the .70/1 Mini wheats IP from? I have a couple good on only the chocolate variety (can't remember where I printed them from, perhaps the kellogg's website) but if yours is good on any mini wheats, that would be better since I really don't want to buy the chocolate ones. TIA!

Sorry to get your hopes up ... it was the chocolate one. Hubby likes that one best, so I had to indulge him. ;)

I did just clip a .65/4 IP that I had gotten from couponnetwork a little while back, so check your stash. Not too shabby! Thanks, OP!
It's working again. They restocked.

I received a special cat offer from Stouffers for Farmers Harvest Entrees. It's tied to the club card unfortunately so this is a heads up in case this offer printed for you in the past or prints in the future. For every 5 I buy either in a single transaction or spread out over multiple transactions, I get a $5 OYNO cat. They are on sale $2.50 ea and marked as an item you can use the Buy $10 Get $5 Frozen cat on. So here's how it'll work for me:

Five entrees: $12.50 - $1/5 MFG cat or $1/4 MFG insert = $11.50 + $5 Stouffers Harvest OYNO + $5 SW Frozen cat. Then roll until I get tired of buying or run out of space, lol.

Sorry, spent all day shopping.

Yes, we get our new ad on Thursdays.

Examples of transactions today:

3 Stouffers 39oz lasagna .67 including tax (total, not each) get $5 OYNO
2 California Pizza kitchen $4.18 plus tax (total, not each) get $5 OYNO and $1 OYNO (national)
4 Eggo + 1 Lucerne ice cream cup (59c) $6.77 with tax (total) get $5 OYNO and $4 free milk
10 Smart Ones (mixed variety) $7.44 with tax (total) get $5 OYNO
10 Lean Cuisines (3.99 shelf price) 5.90 + tax (total) get $5 OYNO

These were all with good J4U pricing + 30% off + manu coupons from inserts.

PS the $5 OYNO rolls however I am not using it 'til tomorrow when I find out what the "new" frozen items are.

Most stores don't close until 10!

Had Eggo for $2.43 on J4U pricing. Needed the other 59c to get up to $10.

The milk catalina is only printing on 10ct Eggo, not the 8ct. The milk catalina I received expires 3/27, so a nice long date.

I bought 4 boxes of the 10 count-eggos; the $5 CAT printed, but not the milk CAT :(
Ended up paying full price for a gallon of milk in my next transaction, because it was like 10 minutes before close and I didn't want to bother them with having to put it back.

If you still have a $5/5 Kellogg's coupon left (I'm saving one of those with a March expiry date for Friday, to make it part of the "buy $75 get $10 back") and are planning to get 4 Mini-wheats (in-ad coupon) an are wondering which cereal to get as the 5th box (limit on the in-ad is 4), you may want to know that there is a 70c coupon for Krave on Savingstar. Krave was $2.50 when I checked today, so $1.80 after you get the 70c from Savingstar even before the $5/5. :)


But they dont do SavingStar at SW?

SavingStar doesnt' but Upromise does, so if you go to your Upromise and load the coupon to your card there first, you can do your scenario;)

yeah i always thought that was weird.. because they're both on the same model - when SS first came out, I asked them tons of questions & they said "we are just like Upromise except.." - so it really is odd that SW doesnt do SS, at least to me. I have Upromise so good idea. :D

I have emailed them a few times too to see if they will add Safeway.
Until then, anytime I see a new coupon on SS I go to Upromise first and if it is there, I load there since 3 stores(for me) participate in Upromise and only 2 stores(same 2 out of 3 as Upromise) do on SS
I learned the hard way the first month that you can load at either/or but not both and since I have not found a way to remove it once loaded, I just make a point to check Upromise first

O organic veggies are 3.39-3.59. buy 3 at 1.99 with in ad q, get $5 cat.

Tried this at my SW in Colorado and did not receive $5 cat. I'm a newbie when it comes to Safeway, so how do sales usually work with the required spending amounts for cats? Is it based off original price, club price, or price with in-ad q? :confused:

O organic veggies were $3.49 regular price at my store, but $2.50 club price, and finally $1.99 with in-ad q.

Sorry, think i was wrong on that scenario because this is a store coupon catalina. I think only the final price on these type of store coupons will count towards the promo. Probably the same with regards to jfu pricing (ie wont get credit for club price when jfu price is lower). Not sure if straight dollar(s) of store coupons will affect it though.

9.50 only got the $3 ore ida cat, got $5 refund at CS

For the last frozen food catalina deal I discovered that doubles count against the minimum (in this case ten dollars). If this was the case for you, your total was $10.46 minus .50 double for a total of $9.96. Manufacture coupons shouldn't count against you.

It's usually the club price that counts. You should be able to get four for $10 counting minus $2.04 for the in-ad Q for a total of $7.96 and get the $5 cat. Though we won't know for sure until we get a confirmation.

People please post scenarios that worked for you! I'll be out later today trying.

I bought two 16oz Ore-Ida Fries @ $1.99 ea, two Ore-Ida Easy Fries @ $1.50 ea, one Stouffer's Farmer's Harvest @ $2.50, and one Jose Ole Chicken Chimichanga @ $1. Total was $10.48, used no coupons. $5 frozen cat printed along with the $3 Ore-Ida OYNO cat.

My next transaction, I purchased four Stoffer's Farmer's Harvest Steam Bag Entrees that were marked to use the $5 frozen cat. Subtotal was $10. I used the $5 frozen cat (which deducted $5 from my total coded as "BASKET $5 Savings $5.00-F"), a $1/4 Stouffers MFG cat and the $3 Ore-Ida OYNO cat. Total was $1. I received the $5 Stouffer's OYNO cat offer that is linked to my club card but did not receive another $5 frozen cat.

Makes me wonder if I had another $5 of frozen, that the $5 frozen cat would have printed, or does using the $5 frozen cat cancel another one from coming out, regardless of your frozen total? Might have to experiment with a few combinations to find the optimal solution. I'm also going to assume that using mfg coupons will not affect the qualifying total.

Even doubles that have nothing to do with the frozen products count against you? SCO cashier just did a generic .50 mfc attached to nothing. If that were the case, then the silk .55 doubling and the .29 yocrunch doubling would also count against it.

Anyway, the choc. chip, blueberry, and strawberry 10ct all work, as well as the 8ct french toast ones for both the frozen and the milk cat deals.

Looking back (http://slickdeals.net/forums/showpost.php?p=48131044&postcount=2284), sounds like no milk cat for either transaction. I also didn't get the milk cat when buying 4 boxes of eggos (did get the $5 though), so I'm thinking maybe it's only working for certain combinations of eggos, like the one Bailey posted.

I ask this not intending to criticize, but I just want to make sure I'm not missing any tricks. I do not understand the obsession with wanting to roll these cats. I understand trying to minimize your OOP, but it seems a better risk/return to take the guaranteed working deal and put the $5 cat in your pocket, as opposed to taking a chance of losing the $5 if it doesn't roll. Whether you spend the $5 cat now or spend it later doesn't seem to make a huge difference in my mind. I can always find something on sale to spend $5 on at Safeway.

Thanks Imm for pushing me over to 2000 :heart:

I didn't see this magazine in the store so I will not be able to "challenge" the CS people. :lol:

I ask this not intending to criticize, but I just want to make sure I'm not missing any tricks. I do not understand the obsession with rolling these cats. Instead of taking the risk of attempted rolling and it doesn't work and you lose the $5, why not take the guaranteed deal, put the cat in your pocket and use it on something else in the future? I can always find something on sale to spend $5 on at Safeway.

I understand what you are saying. This cat is a $5 off next purchase on the new FROZEN items, not a $5 oynp. Also since the frozen items are giving $5 cat wyb $10 so it will make the deal sweeter if they can overlap. To a lot of SDers, taking the risk is fun and couponing is a game. :bounce:

my store has O veggie for 3.19, bought 3 , threw in a 59c ice cream (which I just finished:D) and got the $5 cat. will try to roll it tomorrow with eggo. THere is no signs in the store about buy 4 breakfast items and get free milk so I don't know how to "argue" if it will not print out tomorrow with 4 eggos. :cool:

forgot to mention that I used the 1.99 in-ad q on the O veggies.


qian a few days ago on my blog i posted that it came from sunset mag HTH

So I got a question for the milk cat. I'm going in this morn for my first tranny of the week, and plan to do several transactions. On my very first transaction of Kelloggs, would it work to have the milk in that transaction also and hope the cat will print after the fourth box plus use it on the same tranny? Or do I need to wait to use it until the next transaction?

I haven't done Safeway/Randall's in forever, so I'm trying to do my research before I head out :O

Based on the following comments, it looks like I have to make sure that my total OOP is $10, correct? I get so confused when meeting thresholds and combining with in-ad Qs.

Tried this at my SW in Colorado and did not receive $5 cat. I'm a newbie when it comes to Safeway, so how do sales usually work with the required spending amounts for cats? Is it based off original price, club price, or price with in-ad q? :confused:

O organic veggies were $3.49 regular price at my store, but $2.50 club price, and finally $1.99 with in-ad q.

It's usually the club price that counts. You should be able to get four for $10 counting minus $2.04 for the in-ad Q for a total of $7.96 and get the $5 cat. Though we won't know for sure until we get a confirmation.

People please post scenarios that worked for you! I'll be out later today trying.

So, has anyone tried this specific transaction? I'd love some cheap veggies!

Nice!!! 3.19x3+.59=10.16-1.2inadQx3=6.56 + 5 cat=net 1.56 :)

The ad gives some samples of the qualifying products. I wonder if there's a list somewhere. Should would be nice if it was a $5 OYNP. :girly:

I understand what you are saying. This cat is a $5 off next purchase on the new FROZEN items, not a $5 oynp. Also since the frozen items are giving $5 cat wyb $10 so it will make the deal sweeter if they can overlap. To a lot of SDers, taking the risk is fun and couponing is a game. :bounce:

I'm thinking of combining the frozen products from the Try Me Free Rebate (insert) to lower my total OOP after rebate. Just thought I'd throw it out there in case anyone else out there is a procrastinator like me.... :wave:

And finally, I'm wondering if FREE MQs count against your $10 threshold? I guess this goes back to the $10 min.

I bought two 16oz Ore-Ida Fries @ $1.99 ea, two Ore-Ida Easy Fries @ $1.50 ea, one Stouffer's Farmer's Harvest @ $2.50, and one Jose Ole Chicken Chimichanga @ $1. Total was $10.48, used no coupons. $5 frozen cat printed along with the $3 Ore-Ida OYNO cat.

My next transaction, I purchased four Stoffer's Farmer's Harvest Steam Bag Entrees that were marked to use the $5 frozen cat. Subtotal was $10. I used the $5 frozen cat (which deducted $5 from my total coded as "BASKET $5 Savings $5.00-F"), a $1/4 Stouffers MFG cat and the $3 Ore-Ida OYNO cat. Total was $1. I received the $5 Stouffer's OYNO cat offer that is linked to my club card but did not receive another $5 frozen cat.

Makes me wonder if I had another $5 of frozen, that the $5 frozen cat would have printed, or does using the $5 frozen cat cancel another one from coming out, regardless of your frozen total? Might have to experiment with a few combinations to find the optimal solution. I'm also going to assume that using mfg coupons will not affect the qualifying total.
Do MFG coupons take away from the $10 total since they now come off the price of the item on the receipt? I don't even know how I would explain it to CS since the receipt shows the price of the item minus the MFG coupons.

Reps to TN_Native for posting an Eggo in the printable thread....

Kellogg's Eggo Frozen, 5.3 oz+, $1/3 Print (www.target.com/coupons) E-centive site (will print in middle of page if you only print one) It is an MQ

Not listed on couponnetwork yet. I hate the Target site, but if it helps, it was on page 4 of grocery for me.

Yup, scan the Kelloggs first and the milk cat will print right after the 4th box. Scan your milk and then use the cat from the Kelloggs. :grin:

I ask this not intending to criticize, but I just want to make sure I'm not missing any tricks. I do not understand the obsession with wanting to roll these cats. I understand trying to minimize your OOP, but it seems a better risk/return to take the guaranteed working deal and put the $5 cat in your pocket, as opposed to taking a chance of losing the $5 if it doesn't roll. Whether you spend the $5 cat now or spend it later doesn't seem to make a huge difference in my mind. I can always find something on sale to spend $5 on at Safeway.

Yes the milk and $5 frozen cat roll


I didn't see this magazine in the store so I will not be able to "challenge" the CS people. :lol:

There was a shelf talker on an endcap at my store advertising this so look for those if you are doing the milk deal

Do MFG coupons take away from the $10 total since they now come off the price of the item on the receipt? I don't even know how I would explain it to CS since the receipt shows the price of the item minus the MFG coupons.
After I got the milk cat, I went back and only bought 4 eggos and 1 gallon of milk, use the $5 oynso, $3 oreida, $1/3 eggo and the free milk, paid .44 and got back $5 oynso and another milk cat

Any ideas on where I went wrong?

Could not find the Kashi steam meals anywhere.

I'll probably do the O Organics deal a few more times since the regular price/club price is 3.39 (works out to .97 for 3 bags of veggies).

I have 7 of the pharmacy Qs ($25 off next grocery purchase of $50 or more). I would appreciate suggestions on how to maximize these Qs. I know that I will have to wind up paying $25 OOP after all Qs. Ideally, I'd like to get as many ONYO and rebates as possible. TIA

Looking back (http://slickdeals.net/forums/showpost.php?p=48131044&postcount=2284), sounds like no milk cat for either transaction. I also didn't get the milk cat when buying 4 boxes of eggos (did get the $5 though), so I'm thinking maybe it's only working for certain combinations of eggos, like the one Bailey posted.
What kind of eggos did you get that didnt work for milk cat?


I bought 4 boxes of chocolate chip eggo and a gallon of milk using the free milk wyb 3 breakfast items from fb and received a $5 ONYP of frozen items and a FREE cat milk.

Does anyone know if the buy $75 get a $10 OYNP coupon is before or after coupons?

In the past, it tended to be at least before manufacturer coupons, though I'm not sure about store coupons. One thing to keep in mind is that liquid dairy will not count towards the $75. I am planning my transaction for today and almost included the free milk in it, as part of the $75 I am "spending". I'll be mostly shopping for the items for the GM rebate, plus using my last $5/5 Kellogg's and getting $10 of frozen stuff. Between these three things, I am already almost at $75 and I do need to buy some fruit, too. :D

Does anyone know whether yogurt is considered "liquid dairy"?

You said your club price was 2.50: you need 4 to get to $10. Many areas dont have o organics on sale so club price is same as regular price.

Does anyone know whether yogurt is considered "liquid dairy"?

The last time I didn't account for dairy and was right at $80(had a $5 off 50 I was accounting for) and it would not take. Store pushed it through becasue they thought yogurt was not liquid dairy so I just made sure not to count my yogurt this time around.

It's Waffles 10ct.

I found a .50 peelie on the multi grain waffles. Have not tried to see if they work yet but if they do, would be good to combine with $1/3 coupon. They are 2.99 though but still makes them 1.99 instead of 2.50 since I don't have another coupon to cover that one

Kathy, which of the Eggos counted for the milk Q? I had 4 Eggos and one counted, but I don't think any of mine were 10ct. (scratching my head)


Sorry for the late reply.

All the 10ct Eggo work EXCEPT the New low-fat and "Simply Eggo" type. The 6-ct Thick & Fluffy all work also.

There was a free printable milk coupon WYB 3 breakfast items on Facebook today and they say they will have it again tomorrow https://www.facebook.com/MilkMustache?sk=app_344904202220728 so check back tomorrow. There is also a $1/3 Eggo on coupons.com.

SO:

Buy 4 Eggo @ $2.50 = $10
Buy 1 gallon white milk (up to $4) = free
Use $1/3 Eggo coupon
Use free milk coupon
Use $5 Doms frozen food oyno

Pay $4+ tax, get $5OYNO, get free milk catalina (up to $4)

If you roll this back & forth with Ore-Ida, you will also have a $3 OYNO from the Ore-Ida to put into your Eggo for less money out of pocket.

Have fun!

If you are buying the Lucerne, make sure the coupon comes off correctly. 2 of mine took nothing off and the other two took only .25 each off, weird how that worked, that I caught in the store
The one thing I didn't catch
Kraft Mayo was 3.99 or 1.99 with in ad coupon, nothing came off the olive oil one so it cost 3.99 :O
I had a .35 peelie tripled so with the 1.99 price it would have been good, but NOT what rang up (I don't even like mayo, that was all for dh :( )

Yeah, I think people are trying to roll the $5 CAT on Eggos and try and get the milk CAT...but the "new" Eggos don't work with the milk CAT.


report back on rolling the $5 cat. last night I bought 3 O veggis + 1 ice cream filler and got $5 cat.

today I bought :
Tran 1: 2 blueberry waffles (10ct) + 2 new orignial waffles (10ct)
paid with $5 cat and received $5 cat. no milk cat. but there was a sign by the cereal so I went to CS and showed the girl where the sign was . She offered to give me a raincheck for milk but it's not the sw near me so I told her to give me $4 SW card. she said well the milk doesn't cost $4 and I told her I buy organinc milk (which I really do. ) and i will pay the difference and she did. but she took off the sign from the shelf to avoid future questions I guess.

Tran 2: 3 O veggies+ 1 ice cream filler
used 1.99 in ad q. paid the rest and got the $5 cat. (didn't dare to use the $5 cat from tran. 1)

Hope it helps someone. guess the new Eggo waffles don't work for the milk cat as people said. but I will not even try the regular ones unless there is a sign in the store. :shake:

Even doubles that have nothing to do with the frozen products count against you? SCO cashier just did a generic .50 mfc attached to nothing. If that were the case, then the silk .55 doubling and the .29 yocrunch doubling would also count against it.

I'm not sure about the other doubles. I was going to do the GM TMFree rebate with pizza stuffers and Grands biscuit sandwhiches as part of my frozen deal then I remembered the last frozen food bonanza. I could do identical transactions and with doubles, no cat, without doubles still using coupons I would get the cat. It happened quite a few times. Our doubles are manual, not automatic. I think my coupons and doubles were all for frozen stuff. Our doubles don't 'attach' to anything either.

I thought I would get my missing cats from Catalina (at least five) because I was clearly over the minimum, but I fought with them for months and then gave up. They ended up sending me a $5/15 frozen coupon and they couldn't understand that it is not the same as a $5 OYNO. Then they wanted a scan of that sent in (and I'd already used it, it was going to expire and I couldn't let it go to waste!!) and I said forget it.

Hope that helps.

EDIT: no milk cat wyb 4 Simply 10 count...others just got 3


So, if I get three easy fries I'll get a three dollar cat? I'm in the Pacific NW area. Recently if I go to CouponNetwork and try to look at catalina offers for SW nothing shows up.

has anybody confirmed whether the 88 cent limit 4 Pepsi/7-up 2 liter supercoupon works on 2 liters of crush?

Also, I have 2 of the 88 cent supercoupons loaded onto my card, one expiring tomorrow 03/03, the other expiring tuesday 03/06. Would both come off and work if I bought 8 in one transaction? And if I used a paper supercoupon, would I be able to get 12 in one transaction for the 88 cent price? I'm trying to come up with a list to reach the $75 to get the $10 cat. TIA!

I have not done any of the frozen foods deals this week because my freezer is full. Anyway, at Self-Checkout today, I found a $5 off catalina (someone must have just left it from a prior transaction). The catalina just says $5 off your Next Shopping Trip. Expires 03/31/12.

So is this the catalina from the $10 frozen foods promotion? And if so, is this $5 valid only on the new frozen items? Thanks in advance

It depends on what market you are in. Here in the Chicago area, we have spend $10 get $5 to spend on "new" frozen products. In other areas, they have spend $15 get $5 to spend on any frozen products (not just new ones).

The "new" frozen $5s clearly say they are for the "new" products. If yours doesn't say that you are good to go.

On my first trip to Vons today, I bought 75 dollars in Vons giftcards, but did not get a 10 dollar cat. I did not really expect it, but hey I gotta try. Then I did my shopping. I made very sure I had 75 before coupons, my total before handing over coupons was around 87, I paid with 1 dollar partial payment, my 10 dollar cat popped out and then I handed over my coupons. My final total was 65, then I paid with my giftcards. I know it is a very unconventional way to pay, but I need to make sure the cat will print. I did buy 2 Activia yogurts and 2 Frosted mini-wheats, but the milk cat did NOT print.
There was no signage in the store anywhere, so cust. service nor the checker would help at all. I went home, got my Sunset magazine, went back, spoke to the manager and was refunded 3.09 for my milk. :mad: Then I went on a diatribe about poor customer service when using coupons, bla bla bla and he gave me 5 dollars for my trouble. :D

So I just got back and things did not go as planned. The $5 CAT wouldn't scan at the SCO for the next transaction. Has anyone else had this problem at SCO? It scanned as .01.

And I had a problem with an IP coupon so the guy suspends my transaction and takes me to a register to finish up. I told him I didn't want to do that because it might not print the coupons, but it was too late. Sure enough, it didn't print the $5 FF CAT or the $3 Ore-Ida CAT. If I call CATALINA on Monday, will they mail me replacements? Does anyone have the details on the Ore-Ida CAT?

The Eggos did work for the milk CAT, but the milk CAT wouldn't scan at the register, and the guy spent 5 minutes reading it trying to find an excuse not to take it.

Oh, and the $5 CAT I got today expires in just 7 days. So a really short time for redemption if you don't roll it.

Thanks for the reply. I did not purchase any frozen foods. I just found the $5 catalina on the ground at Self checkout.

If this catalina is not from the frozen foods promotion, I wonder what triggers this catalina. It just says $5 on your Next Shopping Trip. Anyone know what triggers this catalina? Thanks.

I used the $5 cat from my purchase of 4 chocolate chip eggos yesterday today on 3 bags of ore-ida $1.99 ones , 2 boxes of hot pocket and a 33 cents burrito. Got back a $5 cat for new frozen items, $2 ore ida and $1/3 hot pocket. I don't recalled the $5 cat used was just a regular $5 off or $5 off of new frozen items but it scanned through.

2nd transaction, I purchased 5 boxes of hot pocket total $10. Used the $5 cat for new items, $2 ore ida and $1/3 mq hot pocket from the earlier transaction as I didn't want to make another trip to the store with gas prices these days. The $5 cat and the $1/3 hot pocket mq did not scanned. Cashier forced them through and OOP was $2. Cat machine spit out only a $1.50/3 hot pocket mq but no $5 cat.

Asked the cashier why the $5 cat did not print since I purchased $10 of any frozen items. He didn't know so called the store supervisor over. He was a total jerk! Said because I used coupons and my oop was only $2. Maybe there's a limit of 1 and the store card tracked, etc.... He can't force the $5 out of the machine and he started to chew the cashier (poor guy) out saying he is not suppose to force coupons through. He then walk away and start telling all the staffs what I was trying to do. I can hear laughters and a female cashier was asking, if it was "that lady". OMG I was so humiliated and embarassed by this whole shopping trip at this store.

What went wrong with my 2nd transaction? I thought the $5 cat roll from what I read earlier this morning.

In the past, it tended to be at least before manufacturer coupons, though I'm not sure about store coupons. One thing to keep in mind is that liquid dairy will not count towards the $75. I am planning my transaction for today and almost included the free milk in it, as part of the $75 I am "spending". I'll be mostly shopping for the items for the GM rebate, plus using my last $5/5 Kellogg's and getting $10 of frozen stuff. Between these three things, I am already almost at $75 and I do need to buy some fruit, too. :D

Does anyone know whether yogurt is considered "liquid dairy"?

Safeway does consider yogurt liquid dairy. Have run into that problem before at checkout.

Were the Hot Pockets tagged as "new" in your 2nd transaction? If not, the $5 CAT should not scan.

For the coupons the cashier forced through, do any show up as store coupons on the receipt? If so, it then brought your total below $10.

Is the O-Organic scenario a rollable cat buying the same thing over again? I'm seeing people mention "new" cat and "cat" so i'm assuming there are two different Frozen cats.

I've read back and people have stated that the eggo's cat is rolling onto itself without issue too. is the Eggo cat a "new" cat or "cat"?

I'm also going to assume that the two are rolling back and forth between O-Organics and Eggos too. I think someone mentioned doing that and it worked without the $.01 issue.

Let us know how you do today in MD. I had no luck at the SCO. I did 4 O veggies (reg. $3 here) and got the $5 cat. Tried to use that cat on 4 Eggos but it scanned .01. Then on the last transaction of 4 Ore-Ida and 1 O veg, my IP yogurt coupon wouldn't scan, and the guy suspended my transaction and took me to the regular register instead of just fixing it. Then neither the $5 cat or the Ore-Ira cat printed, as I mentioned before.

Of course the SCO here never take a MQ above $3 or so without beeping, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised it didn't take the $5 cat. But it did scan it & put up .01 instead of beeping. Strange.

From what I gather (haven't been to the store yet):

Is the O-Organic scenario a rollable cat? Not by itself. You have to buy $5 worth of "new" products along with the O-Organic veggies in your 2nd transaction and afterwards.

The Eggos can product two different CATs. One $5 "new" frozen and one free gallon of milk. You cannot roll to get both*. You need "old" Eggos to get the free milk CAT so you can't use the $5 CAT.

*(People have been successful in buying the 10ct "new" Eggos and going to CS at a store where the free milk CAT promo is displayed, since the promo says 10ct Eggos and the "new" 10ct Eggos don't trigger the CAT).

I tested to see if you can have less than $5 of "new" frozen items to make the $5 frozen cat work. Purchased three 10ct Blueberry Eggos ($7.50) + two 16oz Ore-Ida fries ($3.98, these are marked to use the cat with). $5 frozen cat only scanned at .01 and did not deduct $5. My cashier did push the cat though and out popped another $5 cat.

Not true. French toast worked fine for me. And the "NEW" item is what you have to buy to SPEND that catalina, not earn it. Did you get the milk catalina? Maybe the machine wasn't working?

If you look at the ad, it reads, "Spend $10 or more on ANY frozen food products and get a coupon for $5 off new items in the freezer section."

Everything worked like I've described in previous posts for me.
4x Activia Harvest yogurt -> got free milk CAT (expires in 24 days)
4x Eggo 10ct (not "new") -> got free milk CAT + $5 CAT (expires in 7 days)
4x $1.99 Ore Ida + $2.04 frozen filler -> Able to roll the $5 CAT

Notes:
- The "new larger size" Eating Right meals don't get discounted with the store Q even though they're within the size restrictions.
- The 20% off Safeway frozen fruit SQ goes by club price and not regular price.
- The Kettle chips SQ worked on the "reduced fat" and regular chips. There's a $1/1 Q for each from RPs.
- I got $10 of Eggos and other non-frozen stuff that I used store doublers on. Got the $5 CAT.
- Acquired some random CAT Qs: $1/1 Naked Juice 15.2oz, $2/1 Sun Drop 12 packs, $1/2 Stouffers Cafe-Inspired products, $20 off $20 at Shutterfly.com code (can't remember which transaction produced this one)

The promos for the free milk were all over the place. I thought about trying out some random 10ct Eggos with "new" written on the box...but CS had a way long line to contest not getting the milk CAT.

Except I still managed to not get a CAT in one of my transactions because of a really weird thing. I found a tearpad for CPK at a different store and used it at Safeway. It's a regular manufacturer Q with the new barcode. For whatever reason, the register accepted it as a "store eCoupon" on the receipt and I think that brought me down to $9.98. *sigh*

I have been successful, except the one store where they told me I could not use my cat except on new items...according to wording it is true. However after I paid I went and pointed out that not ONE "new" item was tagged. So as a customer, how was I supposed to know what was "new"? She replied as an employee, how am I supposed to know? And then she handed me a $5 bill in exchange for the CAT :)


I am wondering though if it is time for a FB protest and the iffyness of this promo

what Try Me Free Rebate are you using?


I'm thinking of combining the frozen products from the Try Me Free Rebate (insert) to lower my total OOP after rebate. Just thought I'd throw it out there in case anyone else out there is a procrastinator like me.... :wave:

And finally, I'm wondering if FREE MQs count against your $10 threshold? I guess this goes back to the $10 min.

I am not sure if someone has mentioned this, but there were $1 off 2 peelies all over my eggo's today. Milk Q printed for the strawberry, blueberry, choco chip, buttermilk. The eggo $5 cat took $5 off the Ore Ida for me (buying 6 Ore Ida at 1.99 each, but not any of the waffle trannys I did. The SCO guy store Qed them each. NOTHING was marked new in my store.

Have jfu price of 1.99 for thomas english muffins (BOGO thru MON)

Has anyone tried for the 75 with club price and then used store coupons to take it under? Wondering if the threshold is determined the same way for all promos. Lucerne sliced cheese is club price 3.99 here and 1.79 after SQ (cheese counts, right?). Annoying that not all these lucerne products have the real CA seal though....



Is the O-Organic scenario a rollable cat? Not by itself. You have to buy $5 worth of "new" products along with the O-Organic veggies in your 2nd transaction and afterwards.


Wanted to see for myself. Coupon did the .01 thing on 3 edamame, but produced a new one just fine.

And the new march newsletter coupons from tonytantillo (not online yet):
.75 of fresh express 9 oz spinach
.50 on 14 oz zico
.25 off 7 oz safeway farms stuffed mushrooms
.25 off fresh gourmet nut and fruit salad toppings.

Wanted to see for myself. Coupon did the .01 thing on 3 edamame, but produced a new one just fine.

.

This O veggi one is really confusing. my friend bought 3 + 1 ice cream filler last night , used the $5 and no new cat came out.

I didn't even try it since it would be hard to argue with the CS with the in-ad coupon and the total being under $10. (well the worst case is to return and get the $5 cat back I guess but it will be a hassle ) Now I have 3 $5 cat and I have no room in the freezer. :(

I did get 4 eggo waffles tonight (regular kind 10ct), used $5 cat and got both $5 cat and free milk cat:D The free milk cat is a mq :woot: I will use it at frys to buy Organic milk since SW's price is crazily wrong! :shake:

Ugh. Bought 5 boxes of Kellog's at $1.99 each to use my last $5/5 coupon and get the free milk cat. The $5 Q wouldn't scan for some reason, the cashier said it was coming up as exceeding the item value, even though 5x1.99 is clearly > 5. On top of that, the milk CAT didn't print. On top of THAT, I noticed after my second trans that the cashier never gave me my change from the first trans, because he was too busy handing me the 10 junk CATs that printed and being annoyed with my coupon usage.

And on top of all of that, no management or customer service people were in to take any of this up with. What a freaking nightmare.

In other news, this is one of the CATs I got instead of my change:

I still haven't found harvest cherry in any stores. But, these things are absolutely delicious, and I've never liked Activia yogurt. Maybe it's because they don't have corn syrup like their regular variety and of course the actual fruit in them.

Seriously, I'm fed up with SW's inconsistently applied coupon policy on top of their (mostly) coupon-/promo-ignorant staff and general all-around apathy for the customer's time and money. :mad: ¡Viva la Revolución!

from what I'm reading-here and blogs, the Milk CAT seems to print wyb 4 of the same type of item
4 activia OR 4eggo OR 4 cereal, but not, ie, 2 Activia and 2 cereal
this is my own observation but I tend more toward obtuse than observant & my memory sucks so throwing this out there

Immy, here's what I found googling a bit. Wonder if it's tied to Just4U (and therefore no good for those of us Texans) If it's not - then might be an extremely good deal on the Jimmy Dean. Buy 3 of those, throw in a Kool-aid, get both this $5 cat as well as $5 frozen cat? Hmm......

Spend $15 in participating items and receive $5 off* your next shopping order.

*Purchase must be made in a single transaction of $15 or more from 3/1/2012 – 3/14/2012. Coupon print at checkout.”

Then there are eight picture of things with the name above and price below. These 8 items are:

Jimmy Dean (shows box with Croissant on front) $4.99

I got this only on one card-my "HI" one, so presumed tied to card

On my first trip to Vons today, I bought 75 dollars in Vons giftcards, but did not get a 10 dollar cat. I did not really expect it, but hey I gotta try. Then I did my shopping. I made very sure I had 75 before coupons, my total before handing over coupons was around 87, I paid with 1 dollar partial payment, my 10 dollar cat popped out and then I handed over my coupons. My final total was 65, then I paid with my giftcards. I know it is a very unconventional way to pay, but I need to make sure the cat will print. I did buy 2 Activia yogurts and 2 Frosted mini-wheats, but the milk cat did NOT print.
There was no signage in the store anywhere, so cust. service nor the checker would help at all. I went home, got my Sunset magazine, went back, spoke to the manager and was refunded 3.09 for my milk. :mad: Then I went on a diatribe about poor customer service when using coupons, bla bla bla and he gave me 5 dollars for my trouble. :D

Did you scan your club card before or after the $1 partial payment? Did the cashier say anything about you doing it that way? I am planning a trip to SW today (have to plan it as SW is about 30+ miles RT :( ) I just want to make sure I get my $10 CAT also :O

I braved my hatred for SW and tried the Krave and frozen food deal yesterday. Luckily, the cashier was a super-patient college kid who was trying to do 10 things at once and help me at the same time.

The Krave coupons beeped "no item match". He told me this was due to the new barcode not being in their system yet. He entered in all 4 as grocery MQs. The "Free milk wyb 3 breakfast items" coupon went through but needed a price prompt.

I also bought 4 easy fries @ $1.25 and 2 of the Blue Bunny sweet freedom ice cream treats because they had $1 peelies on them. The sign said "Overstock clearance" but the ad said this was a new frozen food item. Anyhow, my total should have been $12 which is clearly enough for the $5 new frozen food cat to print, but only the $3 ore ida came out :dontknow: Cashier dug in the bin and found me a $5 cat.

Milk cat printed as soon as I scanned the last krave cereal.

From what I'm reading, lots of items are not counting when they should be. So I'm guessing it was the caramel Blue Bunny sweet freedom (sugar free) ice cream bars.

Note to self...take clearance items to regular register so that 50% off comes off original price...oh well found 3 kellogg cereal 50off (2 choco rice crispies, 1 special k) and added a krave and milk cat printed (store was tagged about the deal). Also found 50off gluten free annies mac (3.99orig) ...3 gave the $5cat (but wish I gad gone to this store during 60%off). Lastly I splurged for hagen daz ice cream. Buy $10 get $20 red envlp gift website and $5cat printed .didnt try to use a cat.

Safeway should at the very least have tagged their new items on their grocery delivery site. Yeah, maybe it's not an online promotion but at least throw us a bone here.

Some are tagged $3.39, but actually all ring up 2/$6 (not a sale price), so 3 bags plus the $0.59 ice cream didn't work. 4 bags with the $1.99 each in ad Q worked. When I bought 4, I've bought green beans, broccoli, and the broccoli/cauliflower mix.

I am wondering if this is why it works with some people and not others on the veggies... the different sale prices and people not spending enough to trigger the cat?
Thanks for all the nice posts everyone:hug:... Its not the safeway i used to know.. but they are throwing a bone with the cheap veggies and ill bite! :)

Good catch, I just checked my receipt and the ~$3.39 tagged O Organics veggies I got (Cali style) rang up as $3 (then minus the $1.01 SQ).

I'm in SD and the shelf price of 3.39 is what it rang up as. I haven't had a problem with getting 3 O veggies and getting a $5 cat. OOP is 5.97 plus a $5 cat.

I bought 3 O Organics frozen veggies today (mixed veggies, corn, spinach) and did not get a CAT. BTW, how much should the CAT have been? I wonder if I should complain or just chalk it up to experience...

I had a Jedi cashier at sco that just let me keep the cat and kept giving me $5 off each tranny. Milk cat printed fine. .

Milk cats beep like crazy. The short barcode is coded for Kelloggs, so that's most likely the reason. If you've used mqs for the Kelloggs items in your order, then the milk cat will beep because there's no more Kelloggs for it to attach to. Just my theory, of course. ;)

I'm as confused as you are.....except for the veggies, that's the one deal I dared to try yesterday!:lmao: The O Organics brand of frozen veggies are part of the frozen deal catalina (buy $10 worth of any frozen items, get a $5 cat off your next order of 'new' frozen items). Some stores have the O Organics veggies on sale (not marked) and others have them for regular price which (for me here in NoVA, is $3.29 on most, but a couple were $3.39). To make it more confusing, there is an in-ad coupon that makes the veggies $1.99 each, limit 4!

Apparently, it is the sale price of the veggies (if your store has them on sale, otherwise it's the reg. price) that counts towards the $10 for the frozen cat, NOT the $1.99 price with the in-ad coupon. So, for example, I did this last night at my store:
3 O Organics veggies ($3.29 shelf price, no sale tag)
1 Eating Right frozen entree ($1.79 with in-ad coupon)
..................................
Total of frozen items: $11.66 which triggered the $5 cat

When she rang up the veggies, I noticed on the screen that they rang up $3 on sale and not at the shelf price and I started to panic, but then realized I still had over $10 worth even with the sale (3 x $3 veggies + $1.79 ER entree). Used the $1.99 in-ad coupon which made them $5.97 (but doesn't affect the cat printing).

So, if your veggies ring up $3 on sale, make sure to add a frozen item that is $1 or more .....

Clear as mud? :lol:

The next thing I need to figure out is what 'new' frozen items the cat works on (nothing tagged at my store) !

Yup. I tried one transaction where I was getting the Birds Eye that are a sale price when you buy 3. Previously it used to work that the full price would count towards a frozen deal. This time was a no-go. No cat printed as I was under 10 after the WYB 3 price. Oh well, I tried!

Also, I got this response from Safeway on Facebook when I asked if there was a full list of new items:

The Kashi "Steam meals" were marked as NEW at my store. I'm guessing I will have to pick items that are tagged, because if my $5 doesn't scan, they aren't going to accept it. For the milk CAT, the CS person walked down the aisle to read the tag instead of actually believing me when I said it stated "any kelloggs cereal"

I bought
2 Eggos lowfat
1 Eggos new Simply line
1 Kellogs crunchy nut cereal
did not get milk CAT.

Did get all other CATs excpected so machine was on.

Two days back I bought 3 O veggies and didn't notice sale price was 2/$6 (because there were not tagged at my store) and didn't get the $5 CAT, today I bought 4 O veggies and get $5 CAT. Bought 4 Eggos chocolate chips and 1 Gallon milk and used free milk facebook coupon and got all expected CATs but $5 CATs didn't scanned.Went to customer service and she told me $5 off CAT only for new frozen product so you can exchange with the newer one if the price is same.

Did you scan your club card before or after the $1 partial payment? Did the cashier say anything about you doing it that way? I am planning a trip to SW today (have to plan it as SW is about 30+ miles RT :( ) I just want to make sure I get my $10 CAT also :O
TIA

[I[/I]
I gave my club card first, then just handed over 1.00. I have done this is the past and the cashier had balked about it, but I just explain, due to my "budget system", this is the way I have to do it;). Then they seem to be ok with that and do it. You could just pay the change portion of your bill with change. I hope it goes well for you lmk.

I did a "C" run which took me from 5:30 -7:30 (missed posting of Kraft CAT!), came home feeling like I'd been wrung out even tho had gone to friendly store.
I did SCO, and the penny trick worked for kicking out FF CAT but not 10/75.
Continue to be confused by FF posts, but I didn't buy new items for my initial FF run ($15 here). I have awesome 1.11 JFU price for SW OJ & just got a few items we like.
So glad JFU prices worked since I couldn't print my list.

Next chance to shop is Tues nite. I'll have the new ad by then to decide if I'll wait, & maybe by then get our list of new items or they'll be tagged.
Hit RA b4 SW and even they seem less confusing by comparison:crazy:
I just tried to go to Von just 4 u website and it says it is down for "maintenance".
I got on twice since the "update" & while loading personalized prices it went down for maintenance, then when I paged back I got "bad request" and couldn't access the site at all. For days.
I've seen some FB posts about it. SW says to clear cookies and close browser. PITA when you've got 15 tabs open! But I did try another browser, was able to access JFU site to see "down for maintenance".
But all that I was able to load did work yesterday-I think since I wasn't able to print a list:mad:

Ok, neighbor, here's an easy use for one of those $5 cats:

Buy 4 of the Ore Ida Golden Crinkle fries that are 1.99. They are a new product. Spend $2.04 on one other frozen product (not meat, seafood or bakery).

Your total cost will be $10, use the $5 beep free at a regular cashier. You'll pay $5 and get back another $5 plus a $3 cat. So you've paid $2 for 4 bags of fries and one other frozen item.

Note that in our local ad, there is one page on which they have advertised the 'new' products. Obviously not all 200 of them, but at least 10.

Now, if only I had freezer space left!

To get the $5 cat, at my store you only have to buy $10 of any frozen products. I only recommended the 4 Ore Ida's I did because a) you get a $3 cat wyb 4 of them and b) the ones I recommended are new products, which means you can use the $5 cat on them.
