Shaw's Headache This Week


Shaws’s catalina deal this week is giving me a headache – a good kind of headache.  There is so much to work with, so much free product to bring home that it makes my head spin.  Here’s my best attempt at a plan:

Transaction 1: 
            16 rolls of Scott paper towels $.99 a roll sale price
-        4x $1.00/4 from the blinkie machine Shaws has thoughtfully placed right in front of the paper towels.
Final Cost:  $11.82 – get a $15 CAT back
Transaction 2:
            Repeat transaction 1.
            Pay with $10 worth of your CAT (it comes as 3x $5) and $1.85 cash
            Get $15 CAT back

Now you have $20 CAT to work with:
Transaction 3:
            13 cans of Progresso Soup
-        3x $1/4 from 11/8 SS
Cost:  $16.37
Pay with $15 of your CATs – get $15 CAT back
Transactions 4 and 5
            Repeat transaction 3

Transaction 6
            9 boxes of Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal $1.88 a box
            -3x $1/3  11/1 SS
            Cost:  13.92  Add a quick filler to get to $15 --Pay with CATs get $15 CAT back
Transaction 7
            12 jars of Skippy peanut butter $1.99 a jar
-        6x $1/2  10/4 RP
$17.88  Pay with CATs Get $15 CAT back
Transaction 8
            6 Breyers Ice cream $2.99 each
            no coupons for this one
            Pay $17.94 with CATs – get $15 CAT back
And so on…. And so on…… and so on…..
Do you see how I got a headache???
