There's another save instantly deal -- Buy $15 worth of participating items and get $5.00 off your order instantly --- 

The deal works on the "shelf price" --- the regular price before sales or coupons --- 

So for instance -- Skippy peanut butter is part of the deal.  Its on sale for $2.00 --- the shelf price is probably about $2.50 (that's what it is at most stores) YOu'll need to check the shelf price and have calculator in hand before you try the deal.  

But if its $2.50 ---- You'd need 6 jars to make the $15.00 (6x2.50 - 15.00_

But 6x$2.00 (sale price) is only $12.00 

Save $5.00 instantly and it comes down to $7.00 or $1.17 a jar (there are no Skippy coupons out there right now ---so that's the best you can do right now -- but still probably better than you're used to doing)

The other item that comes out as a good deal is 

Wishbone Salad dressing $2.00 --- again, shelf price is probably more like $2.50 ish

6 x $2.00 = 12.00

less 4 of these coupons 

use $0.75/1 Wish-Bone Salad Dressing Coupon 

$12.00 - $6.00 

minus the Save $5.00 instantly --- = $1.00 

So $1.00 for 6 bottles of salad dressing 

You can't do this in the same transaction as the Skippy -- it will only take off the $5.00 once per transaction. 

Another Instant Savings Deal: 

purchase 7 products from the list --- and save $3.00 instantly 

Green Giant Valley Fresh Sauce Steamers - $1.66

use $0.50/1 Green Giant Coupon

So -- 7x $1.66 = $11.62

less 4 of the coupons doubled -- = $7.62

less the $3.00 it will take off instantly = $4.62

Final Cost:  $.66 each

The coke deal is one I love (cuz its not just Coke)

Buy $15.00 worth of participating products and get $5.00 back (this is a coupon for $5.00 off your next order that will print at the end of the transaction)

Here's the deals I'm loving: (remember this also works on the shelf price)

Simply Orange Orange Juice ($1.50) - $1.00

So -- 10 of these little bottles of orange juice = the $15.00 you need to qualify

But it will ring up as $10.00 

Pay the $1o.00 and get $5.00 back at the end of the transaction

Final Cost:  $.50 a bottle (they're pretty good for lunches etc) 

If you're wandering around Walgreens and find a copy or several of a freebie magazine called Diabetes and You --- there's a $1.00 coupon in it for Simply Orange Juice (any size)  Use up to 4 of these -- and you could end up paying only $1.00 for the whole lot of 10 bottles.  Sweet (also some people are finding tear pads of $.50 off coupons for this orange juice at convenience stores like Quick Chek (we don't have them, so I don't even know what they are)
