Everything went smooth as silk for me today at Shaw’s!  I ran in to pick up my Classico.  I planned on doing maybe just one transaction, but it went so well that I did all 6 of my transactions today, plus one for reduced stuff. I went to my car twice to put stuff away then got back in line.  It wasn’t busy, and I don’t think anyone ever got behind me, but just in case someone did, I don’t like doing more than 2 back to back. Also, I get flustered if I do it all at once. And I need all the exercise I can get, so going to the car and back is good for me!

Before I give you my break down, I want to explain that I have 2 separate SavingStar accounts, one in my name and one in my husband’s name, each with their own store cards and Shaw’s tags.  Whenever there is a good SavingStar deal, I get to do it twice!

Here we go…

For the Classico, I did separate transactions using 2 different SavingStar accounts, 12 jars on each tag.

Transaction #1:
(4) Classico Pasta Sauce 24 oz on sale for $1.50 each
(2) Prince Pasta (Shaw’s sale is 1 free pasta for every 2 jars of sauce)
Used $1/3 Classico printable coupon (might be reset again! no longer available)
I paid $5.00 at the register
I got $3.00 OYNO catalina for buying 4 Classico 24 oz

Transactions #2 thru #6
(4) Classico Pasta Sauce 24 oz on sale for $1.50 each
(2) Prince Pasta (Shaw’s sale is 1 free pasta for every 2 jars of sauce)
Used $1/3 Classico printable coupon (might be reset again! no longer available)
Also used $3 cat from previous transaction
I paid $2.00 at the register
I got $3.00 OYNO catalina for buying 4 Classico 24 oz

After those 6 transactions, I ended up with 24 jars of Classico and 12 boxes of Prince and I paid $15.00 out of pocket.  I also had a $3.00 catalina left over.

I also sent through the salt in two separate transactions using my 2 SavingStar accounts.

(1) Diamond Crystal Kosher Salt at $1.15 (reg price in Sanford)
Used (1) $.40/1 Diamond Crystal printable (it was on zip 33133, NLA?)
coupon doubled to $.80 off
I paid $.35 at the register
did this twice… totally need salt to boil all that pasta!

Produce:
7 bananas, 7 plums, 2 oranges, 1 apple, 3 yellow squash, all in reduced
Total $3.37
I used my last $3.00 catalina
I paid $.37 for all my produce

Paid at the register
Classico deal $15
Salt $.70
Produce $.37
Total at register: $16.07

SavingStar refunds (2 accounts)
(2) $5.00 refunds for Classico, $10
(2) $.40 refunds for the salt. $.80
Total SavingStar refunds: $10.80

Final price is only $5.27 for everything you see!

    I just tried this deal at my local Shaw’s but a catalina did not print. Has anyone else had a problem with this?

    • Darlene

      There are always times when the cat does not print. I got lucky and all 6 of mine printed. If after the first transaction it does not print, always go to a different register. If you get a register that works, stick with that register. If you go to customer service, they should refund you.
