What I found at the Fred Meyer Founder’s Day sale!

 

Ever have those couponing shopping trips that are just fun? You know, when you get the items you most want and your bill is still ridiculously low?

So I had my Fred Meyer Rewards rebates. What I love about this time is that my rebate was on ONE coupon as opposed to several smaller ones. It inspired me to do a couple transactions.

Transaction one: 4 Kelloggs cereals – used (2) $1/2 printable coupons and some of my Rewards rebates. Paid nothing out of pocket AND I got a $3 Catalina! So yes, it is in fact working at Fred Meyer (although I might just be the slow one of the bunch to catch onto this deal!). You can read about how to do this deal over HERE.

Transaction two: Seventh Generation items 50% off + printable coupons, leanest ground beef + $2 Rewards coupon, all the hot produce deals + $2 Rewards coupon (organic berries, pineapple, mangos, and avocados), more cereal (with more coupons, of course), Hunt’s pasta sauce, Breyer’s ice cream, Treetop Trim (just $0.50 after coupons!)….oh, and one Hot Wheels car for my best shopper helper!

Bottom line? $24.39 for everything AND I got another $3 Catalina coupon in my second transaction for the cereal! Score! Check it out – green cleaning products, produce, lean meat, and diapers!

Granted, I did start with some Rewards coupons, but I still feel like I did a pretty terrific job! I love using those on top of sale items to stretch them further.

Want to get in on some of these deals yourself? See my Fred Meyer deals post, and then my post earlier today on the Kelloggs Catalina.

Happy Shopping!

Look at the 7th Generation products carefully. I found the liquid laundry detergent had a $5 mail in rebate when you buy any 3 products. I also used a Fred Meyer $2 off 7th Generation coupon & they gave me another $2 coupon with my 7th Gen purchase yesterday. Talk about a good deal!

Oh believe me, I looked for that rebate!! That would’ve made 3 of my four items free and paid for part of the diapers. I may email Customer Service and see if there’s a form online somewhere. 50% off is the deepest discount I’ve seen on an advertised sale for these products!

I looked all over for the rebate too! Didn’t find one. I got wipes though, after coupon it made them cheaper than costco! I may go back for diapers. What a super deal! I am loving freddies this week!
