My Shopping Trip: Stop & Shop
I headed to Stop & Shop to use up some mailed coupons that I had received and to check on the Oscar Mayer Catalina. It seems that, in addition to the new Oscar Mayer Lunchmeat Catalina Deal I posted earlier, there is also an Oscar Mayer Catalina on select Oscar Mayer products which includes the Oscar Mayer Selects. This additional catalina deal is Buy 3 of select Oscar Mayer products and get a $3 catalina. The offer is over tomorrow 5/17.
Here are the details on that catalina:
Oscar Mayers Products: OM Bacon, Luncables with Fruit, Lunchables 2 pack, Selects, Selects Hot Dogs, Carving Board
5/4 – 5/17
Buy 3 Get a $3 Catalina
Well, with the new Oscar Mayer Lunchmeat Catalina deal that just started, I thought maybe, just maybe, we would have a double dip on the 2 catalinas. I’m sorry to report that it appears the Selects are not included in the new catalina.
But, the good news is, there are Oscar Mayer 2 oz packs that are only $1 each that are working on the new catalina. As a reminder, here is the new catalina deal:
Oscar Mayer Lunchmeats
5/14 – 6/10
Buy 3 Get a $2 Catalina
Buy 4 Get a $3 Catalina
Buy 5 or more Get a $4 Catalina
Here is the deal you can do:
Buy 5 Oscar Mayer 2 oz packs $1.00 each
Pay: $5
Get a $4 Catalina
$0.20 each after catalina
