Safeway's Sweet AirMiles Deals

[Aatlaantis]

I have 3 FPCs for Vector cereal... so I am hoping there will be Vector with coupons on it AND get the free milk... I can always hope.

OOP would be ZERO.

Thats what I did! Worked fine for me!

I went shopping today to take advantage of the buy $100 get 100 miles, and found out that if coupon savings bring your total down below $100 you will not get the 100 bonus airmiles, regardless of when you scan the airmiles coupon.

I was at $115~ total after clubcard when I scanned the coupon, and my receipt shows that Airmiles coupon #1042 was entered, but doesn't list the 100 airmiles as earned as coupons brought my total down to $98~

Went to CS and bought a $5 item to cover the difference, and had the receipts linked & manually entered in the Airmiles book, but figured I should warn others who thought to use coupons to reach $100

Went today and bought 6 pepsi 6 packs and had two B2G1 coupons so only paid for 4 @ $4each.

For those who think Safeway is over-priced you just have to be a wary shopper Wal-Mart is $4 too while SDM has a special on @$2.50 each if you buy 2.

So 4 at Safeway cost $16 = $18.88 after tax on all 6.

4 at SDM = $10 - $11.80 after tax on all 6.

However, I picked up 100 AMs = $11.40 in AMs

$18.88 - $11.40 = $7.48 vs. $11.40 at SDM

$3.92 better at Safeway than the best price I could find elsewhere.

The B3GMilk on Kellogg's @$4 each continues next week.

30% Off on Vitamins B4G100

Is Tuesday 10% Off as well?

[coley3]

Yes Tuesday is 10% off day. I am going to do the cereal/milk deal again. Hurray. I am glad stores are doing this more frequently. Can't beat free milk especially when the cereal is priced right as well.

[operabob]

OK, I've updated P.1 for June 3 - 9

I've also adjusted the value of an AirMile to $0.11 since AirMiles revalued all gift cards at $0.114/AM this past week.

This reduces the AirMiles advantage by 27% so look closely at the values before you buy.

Yogurt will be a good deal on Tuesday as it brings a tub to effectively $1.37.

The B3GMilk on Kellogg's continues. Watch it though as this weeks flyer indicates specific types and sizes while the coupon itself does not. After 10% the cereal is $3.60/box

Finally, for those who wonder how I got 37% Off on Tuesday on the vitamins instead of 40%:

30% Off leaves 70%. On Tuesday the 10% is applied to the remaining 70% not the original price which reduces the amount another 7%.

30% + 7% = 37%

[coley3]

I plan on buying the Yogurt tubes 2/$5 Buy 5 get 40AM. There are $1 off coupons from gocoupons. You can order 1 each week. I have lots. So I will be getting my yogurt tubes for $12.50 (for 5) - $5 coupons= $7.50 - 15% here in Red Deer + 40 AM's. Not sure on the end cost but I know for yogurt tubes that's a great price and can't be beat.

[operabob]

You can order 1 each week.

Coley,

I think you can order pretty well every day or maybe it's just because I have several different emails I use for Junk purposes.

One good free email is at:

PS: Thanks Coley, I forgot I have a ton of those coupons.

[kanda]

I'm soooo trying to understand all this but my eyes literally start to glaze over when you all get into the math. I can't reach my smart switch!

[marmaduke]

The Irish Spring with the $2 coupons is looking good, especially on Tuesday.

[coley3]

Thanks Bob. I'll check that out. I only have 1 e-mail I use. And I am not on Facebook either. Living in the Dark ages I guess

[BCCouponClipper]

Thanks for the refferal to this thread OB,
I am trying to get to gold status this year,
I currently have 4 sponsors and 518 collected since jan 1.

any tips (that do not include buying cereal or spending $100) to get me over the hill in the next 6 months?
BTW anyone eles ever notice in every flyer if you spend around $25 there is promotion for 100 airmiles?
tp, cereal, pop...etc?

[operabob]

And I am not on Facebook either.

I am but for the life of me I don't understand the big todo about it. I very seldom sign up for any of the promotional offer on FB as they seem to want too much access to your personal info.

Clippy,

any tips (that do not include buying cereal or spending $100) to get me over the hill in the next 6 months?

Many of us are buying the yogurt and soap this week. If I haven't thrown the coupons away I'll be buying the dental floss. When you visit your dentist check to see if they have coupon booklets at the counter, etc. I made a profit in AirMiles donating toothpaste to the foodbank earlier this year.

Also keep your eyes open for any unadvertised specials on housebrands. Last week newfbc noticed this one:

Safeway 'Thirsty' brand 2 roll paper towel. $3/pk.
Buy 2, get 40 Air Miles. @ 0.13/AM = $0.80 for 4 big rolls paper tower. Not bad.

It was an excellent offer. I bought 6 for a quick 120.

[dimigon]

The paper towel was a good deal, I picked up 72 for 1440 miles + base, does anyone know how to identify the housebrand unadvertised deals? The manager explained the only way is to literally walk up and down every aisle, and those deals are weekly - bi-weekly
