Thanks frugalnurse for that list. The Save On I went to today did not have the coupon and the staff knew little or nothing about it, as usual. The guy at customer service said the problem is with Kraft for not getting the coupons to the stores. He ultimately said that I could buy any 5 Kraft products and get the discount.

The Willoughby store had the coupons at customer service.

Christie crackers on sale this week 5 for $10

Use Buy 3 Christie cracker products and get 1 free coupon, you can get them 1.50 per box when you buy 3.

If you buy Ritz munchables and/or wheat thin stix, you can stack 0.75 off coupons x 3 with buy 3 get 1 free coupon, that works out to be less than 1.00 per box when you buy 3.

So, I ventured out to Metrotown today to try and track down one of the rare and elusive $5 Kraft coupons. I scoured the huge store (which I wanted to do anyway in case there were any other coupons) but no Kraft coupons and not much of anything else. I lined up at customer service and when I finally got to ask the guy there, he knew nothing about it. He studied the flyer and made a couple of phone calls. Several staff converged on the customer service and they all looked at the flyer and discussed it at length and one made another phone call and a couple others ran off to search by the products. I had already told them I couldn't find it anywhere in the store. And then they start looking everywhere around the customer service area, in the cupboards and under piles of papers and everywhere. As I'm watching this I spied a HUGE bundle of coupon pads sitting on a chair in the corner with one of the pads sitting sideways so I could see "SAVE $5" on it. I pointed it out to one of the managers and he undid the bundle and looked carefully at it. He peeled ONE coupon off and handed it to me. I politely asked if I could get one more and he said sternly "One per customer!".

Sometimes it's so easy and other times...

So, here's a look at my one precious copy of the $5 Kraft coupon.






Fine print:

The coupon doesn't even say 'one per customer'! And why did they advertised it if they will just hide those coupons :$

[tink30]

I saw them at the Nordel store today but I was in a hurry and didn't take any. I should have grabbed a couple!

The Fleetwood (Surrey) store is keeping the Kraft coupons at customer service. They are tired of entire tear pads disappearing and want all their customers to have access to them. I couldn't find them in the aisles, so I went and asked where they were. I have no problem at all with them keeping them behind the counter, but it would be nice if they posted this in-store. I scoured the place before asking for them.

I was just at Nordel SOF, Tink, and they had two tearpads out that I saw - both next to the cheese.

What I don't like is the ridiculously short expiry - stores either don't have it, or it's valid for only a week or so. This one expires July 3. Anyways, I took 3. I can get more if anyone is interested. PM me.

I saw a bunch at Madison & Lougheed on Sunday, but didn't look tonight when I was there...

I have some for trade if you can't find them.


BTW, the Maple Leaf Prime chicken breast is on sale (5.99lb I believe). I picked up a $12 pack, and stacked the 3 Maple Leaf coupons ($5 from FB, $2 from FB, and $2 tear pad) and 1 $1.50 Any Chicken from ziploc. WooHoo.

Also I noticed that the 2L Pepsi/Diet Pepsi/GingerAle/Diet GingerAle are 2 for $3. Great deal!!!

SOF at Metrotown does not price match.

I have had a very similar experience at Metrotown. When they advertise those Kraft coupons I now go straight to customer service and I refuse to leave until they hand me the coupon. If they suggest I hunt where the Kraft products are in the store I politely say last time I hunted the store for 20 min and they weren't there but were at customer service (absolutely true) and I am not repeating the process. Last time it took 3 people to find the pads--someone had tucked in a spot beside the cash register. I have managed to get a second one by indicating that I have a friend who started shopping while I tracked down the coupons. That store is the Siberia of SOFs. Presumably SOF will make a greater effort in a couple of years when they are in a new location across the street (sort of) and the location they are currently in is gone to make way for another tower or two. That said, there is one cashier there (her name eludes me at the moment) that is fabulous to work with. And I do think that many on staff are making the best of a difficult situation. I am assuming the company is spending absolutely no money on a store that is going to be destroyed.
