Here’s how I’m working the Shaw’s gift card deal to score lots of goodies wicked cheap! Before I start, I want to let you know that this is the first time I do a gift card deal like this. And my awesome Shaw’s helped me learn the ropes! They are absolutely awesome in Sanford! And they don’t pay me to say that! lol
I know some of you shop at certain Shaw’s that are not a willing to show their love for couponers. If you have issues, do your survey that is on the bottom of your receipt and be honest! Not only can you win $100 by doing the survey, but Shaw’s will listen to what you have to say! It might help!
You can see the gift card deal is HERE and it’s going on through 11/28. You can use the MasterCard to purchase another MasterCard. You can’t use the $20 catalina to purchase a gift card, but you can use it toward the activation fee.
I know some are getting the full $2.00 value of the EE bogo coupon even when buying something less than $1.00. That never happened for me. And yes, I did lots of transactions! This was over two nights.
If your store is out of $100 mastercards, ask if they have more! Sanford says they have plenty!
I was going to break down every single transaction, but after a few attempts, I gave up. It would just take too long. Instead, I’ll show you how I did a few to give you an idea of how to do this.
The trick is to get as close to $120 after all other coupons. Then you use your $20 cat and $100 gift card to pay the bill!
I bought a $100 MasterCard and paid $5.95 activation fee
OOP (out of pocket) was $5.95
I’m not out that $100 because I now have it in the form of a mastercard
Got $20 catalina toward my next purchase.
I bought (1) package Sanford Town Trash Bags for $10
I bought (2) EE Food Storage Bags at $2.59 each
I bought (1) Bread in reduced for $1.20
I bought another $100 mastercard plus $5.95 activation fee
Total was $122.35 including tax
I used (1) EE bogo coupon, deducted $2.00
I used $20 cat and $100 gift card
OOP was $.35
I got another $20 catalina
I bought (2) gallons Milk at $3.80 each
I bought (8) Del Monte Canned Mixed Veggies on sale for $1.00 each
I bought (2) Ramen Noodles at $.25 each
I bought another $100 mastercard plus $5.95 activation fee
Total should have been $122.05 but it subtracted $.06 tax?, so $121.99
I used (2) $.50/4 Del Monte coupons (doubled to $1.00 off)
I used $20 cat and $100 gift card
OOP was ZERO (it left a penny on my card! lol)
I got another $20 catalina
I bought a Beef Roast at $17.96
I bought another $100 mastercard plus $5.95 activation fee
Total was $123.91
I used $3.00 off stickie coupon on the meat
I used the penny left on the previous card (yes, I did!)
I used $20 cat and $100 gift card
OOP was $.90
I got another $20 catalina
And I just kept going and going and going.
I got…
5 Sanford Trash Bags (those would normally cost $50 total!!!)
2 EE Nutty Nuggets cereal
2 Glad Cling Wrap
4 EE Ketchup
2 Cains Mayo
2 EE Canned Apricot
2 Beef Pot Roasts (one not in photo, in my belly)
2 EE Vegetable Oil
1 Argo Cornstarch
2 EE Brown Sugar
2 EE Raisin Canister
2 EE Sandwich Bags
2 EE Butter
8 EE Toilet Paper 1000 Sheets 4 Pack
8 Boxes Gelatin
2 McCormick Spices
2 Canola Oil
2 EE Storage Bags
1 Bread
2 Ramen Soup
8 Cans Del Monte Veggies
2 Gallons Milk
The total for the stuff I got (at sale price) is $205.39
After coupons and cats…
I paid $11.27 OOP
And that includes initial $5.95 activation fee, so everything in pic was only $5.32!
And I still have a $20.00 cat left over (and a $100 mastercard)
And guess where I’m going tomorrow!
