I ran into Shaw’s Wednesday night to see if I could get some prices on the Muir Glen tomato products to go along with this Muir Glen coupon. Here is what I discovered…
The 11.5 oz cans of Muir Glen tomatoes and Muir Glen tomato sauce were on sale for $1.19 (regular price $1.79). The coupons are for 85¢ off one. Even though Shaw’s written policy is that they don’t allow overages, there are times that a coupon will actually double for the full amount. I was hoping this would be the case with this coupon :O)
I was also running into Shaw’s to pick up 4 more International Delight coffee creamers to go with these new International Delight coupons that I found. I thought I’d take a chance and see if I’d get the overage on the tomatoes to pay for the creamer.
Here’s the scenario:
4 cans Muir Glen tomaotes on sale for $1.19 each = $4.76
4 bottles International Delight on sale for $1.99 each = $7.96
Total price = $12.72
I used (4) $.85/1 Muir Glen coupons that doubled -$6.80
I used (4) $.75/1 International Delight coupons that doubled -$6.00
Total coupons = $12.80
As you can see, after coupons I would have ended up with a negative balance of 8¢. Shaw’s does not give cash back (well, sometimes they do) so I needed to spend another 8¢.
I found 1.5 pounds of potatoes in the reduced produce bin marked down to only 28¢, so picked them up (I forgot to put the spuds in the photo). Then I nervously went to the register with the hopes that the coupons for the tomatoes would double for the full $1.70 off.
And they did!
I got all 4 cans of tomatoes and the coffee creamer for FREE!!! And I ended up paying only 20¢ for 1.5 pounds of potatoes! I love Shaw’s!
I was getting sick while in the store, so I forgot to see how long those cans of Muir Glen were on sale. Even if not on sale, you can get the cans like I got for only 9¢ each with the coupons. Or, you can pick up Muir Glen tomato paste for $1.19 (reg price) and see if you get the overage on that. The big cans of tomatoes were $3.59 to $3.79 so you would need to wait for a sale on those.
Oh, the Muir Glen tomatoes are NOT with the other canned tomatoes. They are in the organic section. I hope you score some tomatoes!
