My Vons Deals 2 Charmin Big Packs- $3.00 Each!!!

 

OK, the major deal I scored was on the Charmin big packs of 24 big rolls!  They are participating in 2 different promotions at the same time but only through TOMORROW 3/2!

 

Here is the scoop:

Buy 2 Charmin big packs
One promotion will make them $9.99 each when you buy 2 AND
They are also a part of the Buy $25, Get $10 Catalina P&G products promotion
The P&G promotion must have calculated my $25 before the other promotion adjusted them to $9.99 each at the end.

Load the $3.00 off ecoupon from P&G esaver AND

Use (2) .25 off from 2/7 P&G
Load .50 Upromise coupon to account
Final Price= $3.00 each!! after coupons and catalina coupon back for my next order

 

**Remember, these promos only overlap through tomorrow 3/2!

There is also a $3.00 off P&G esaver ecoupon, .25 off in the 2/7 P&G and a .50 off UPromise coupon for the Bounty Paper towels that should be a part of both promotions as well.  Thanks for the reminder Bargain Blessings.

 

OK, I thought this picture was hysterical and telling of my girls that my youngest was pulling the strawberries off the table and not even paying attention to the Cheetos or Pop Tarts.  Truth be told, both of them were for me and my girls will probably never even see them.  It was a moment of weakness put at least on sale:)  All told, I got all of the above for only $21 after my $10 to use on my next transaction!
