Reader Lynn tried out the P&G catalina deal at Acme this week. Here is what she said:
This is my first year “couponing” and I’d like to say THANKS so much for your website. It has been very helpful and I’ve saved a lot of money since February when I first learned about the wonderful world of couponing!
Here’s my Acme trip from 11/7 (I did the P&G catalina deal). I was nervous it wouldn’t work on shelf price, so I was aiming for sale price. Funny thing is, it must be working on shelf price, because I was 3 cents short of $20 on sale price!
Paid 9.62, got the $5.00 Catalina, so $4.62 for everything! Woohoo!
And here is what Lynn picked up:
