Coors Light Fried Chicken Rebate - thru 10-31-11

Coors Light has a new Mail in Rebate out that is a great one for anyone who likes Fried Chicken and lives in Virginia.

You must spend a Minimum of $10.00 on Fried Chicken - between 9-1-11 and 10-31-11 (maybe you already have a receipt saved - that you can submit with this form).  Then take your receipt and this original Mail in Rebate form and send it in and you will get $5.98 back in the form of a check - How easy is that to save 60%..you don't need to buy anything other than Fried Chicken !

If you shop at Martin's in Harrisonburg beginning on Sunday 10-2-11 they will have their Eight Piece Fried Chicken on sale for $6.99.   So you could purchase two of these - making your total $13.98 for 16 pieces of chicken then use that receipt with this Mail in Rebate and get your $5.98 - so your net expense would be $8.00 for the 16 pieces.   A great deal !

If you like Kellogg's - Sign up for great coupons

We all love cereal and it's become very expensive - so make sure you have signed up for all the great savings available at Kellogg's  - follow the link below and registration is easy - new coupons are often available especially the First of the Month.    Kellogg's frequently sponsors great Catalina Deals offering Free Milk Coupons, when you purchase a certain number of their cereal products - so be prepared and have their coupons on hand.


Also be on the look out for those "Blinkie" boxes at your store - I found a Smartsource Blinkie machine at Food Lion with a Kellogg's Cereal Coupon worth $1.00 off any Two Kellogg's cereals, 10 oz or larger, Any Flavor, Mix or match - which is a good coupon since you can buy any Flavor of Kellogg's cereals, unlike alot of the recently published coupons which are flavor specific.


There is also a Blinkie for Free Milk - when you purchase Two Packages of Kellogg's Crunchy Nut Cereals - the maximum value of the discount on the milk is $2.50 - the blinkie expires 10-15-11 - but it is rare.  These have been sited on Ebay and found at some Kroger locations.

Don't throw Away those Cats - and learn how to get more money back at the cash register

We have all gotten those coupons when you pay your bill at the grocery store that come from the little white machine that sits beside the register.  They offer you a certain amount of money off a product or even better yet a amount of money you can spend on anything you buy,  the next time you visit the grocery store.  Sometimes, they are telling you about an upcoming deal at the store and giving the details of what you must buy to get a coupon that is good for a specific dollar amount off anything else you want to buy.   The Coupon that is good for anything is often referred to by us as "OYNO", meaning On Your Next Order.

Well that machine is called a "Catalina", because it comes from Catalina Marketing and you will often hear us couponers call the Coupon itself at "Cat".

Now these coupons come most often as a Manufactures Coupon and you will see that on the top of the coupon along with an expiration date.  If it's telling you about an upcoming deal it will spell out the details of the deal - but it won't be an actual cpn - it's just giving you information, so it's important to be able to identify what you are getting from the Catalina machine.

You can use these great offers to get additional money back on things that you are going to buy, that are already on sale, at a rock bottom price, and that you have clipped or printed coupons for and that is how you really maximize your savings.

The formula is really simple - find a great sale price, use your coupons, buy the quantity needed to satisfy the catalina deal and - get a coupon good for anything else in the store = maximized savings.

Now there are regional and national catalina deals and how you find out about them can be difficult sometimes.
Not all deals run at all stores at the same time - when you click on the links, I will provide below, you can preview and print the deals - you can see a list of the stores that are participating in the deal.   It maybe your favorite store or even a store you don't normally shop at - but if the deal is good enough - you might make a special trip.

I'm going to tell you about several deals that are presently going on or about to start and give you some links to print specific information about the deals and even give you some matching cpns to use when you buy the items.  I always recommend printing the deal information and carrying it with you in your coupon binder - that way if you have a problem when you do the deal - you have proof in hand to take to customer service.

These deals are always time specific and often size specific - so watch those details as you plan to shop. They  require you to purchase the specific quantity in a single shopping trip (ie "transaction", means each time you check out) - so if you want to earn the $2 reward for example in this first deal - you would need to purchase 3 boxes in a single transaction.  When you pay for your order the coupon you have earned will spit out of the catalina machine.  Word of advice here - before you start a transaction where you are expecting to receive at Cat - check to make sure the little green light is on on the machine - sometimes they are turned off or even out of paper - you can even ask the cashier if his/her cat machine is working today.

Remember each of these deals can be done over and over and over - earning the Cat each time.  Sometimes Catalina deals will produce multiple Cats in one transaction, but we don't always know that in advance - so unless you know for sure I would recommend buying the items in single transactions to make sure you will get a OYNO cat each time.

Remember to use your printed or clipped coupons on these items as your purchase them.  Using coupons will not effect the printing of the OYNO Cat, unless the deal states you have to spend a certain amount (Extremely rare)
