I Looooooooooooooove Product Packaging Coupons/Offers!

[lotsasavings]

My favourite coupons are often the ones I get from product packaging. This week, I hit the jackpot with coupons and deals offered on products:

***************
Food Basics had 4-packs of Dole Fruit Gels and Parfaits on sale for $1.88. On each package is $4.00 worth of Dole coupons, expiring Dec. 31/14. I already had some of these coupons so I bought:

10 x packages of 4 Dole Fruit Gels @ $1.88 each – 10 x $1.00 coupons = $8.80 total or $ .88 each . . .

AND

I now have another $40.00 worth of coupons (10 of each of $1.00 Dole Fruit Gels/Parfaits, $1.00 Dole Squish’ems, $1.00 Dole Fruit ‘n Crisp, $1 Dole Live Right Bites)

***************
Giant Tiger had 650mL tubs of Astro Zero yogurt on sale for $2.00. From previous Astro yogurt product packaging, I had $1.00 Zero coupons so I bought:

8 x Astro Zero yogurt tubs @ $2.00 each – 8 x $1.00 coupons = $8.00 total or $1.00 each . . .

AND

Each tub had a PIN. I entered all 8 PINs and received a code for $75.00 worth of Cory Vines activewear FREE. I ordered 3 x racerback tanks @ $25.00 each. There was no tax and shipping is included so all FREE!

***************
I’ve been stalking the grocery stores for this deal and found what I wanted at Sobeys, Fortinos, No Frills and Wal-mart:

Last fall, specially marked General Mills cereals had PINs with which you could order Free Product Coupons. I was hoping the General Mills promos would overlap and, YES!!!, they did! I “bought” (if you can call redeeming FPCS “buying”):

25 x Honey Nut Cheerios Hearty Oat Crunch cereal @ $4.99 each – 25 x FPCs (expire Jan. 30! . . . phew! . . . so close!) = FREE . . .

AND

Each box has a PIN for a General Admission Free Movie or BOGO (Cineplex) offer so I now have 25 PINs for Free Movie Offers! (And, unlike the Honey Nut Cheerios which has the Child Free Movie Offer, the Honey Nut Hearty Oat Crunch has the General Free Movie Offer!)

In a nutshell:

This week, I spent $8.80 (Dole Gels) + $8.00 (Astro Zero) for a grand total of $16.80 out of pocket and ended up with:

10 x packages of 4 Dole Fruit Gel Cups
PLUS
$40.00 worth of Dole coupons
PLUS
8 x 650mL tubs Blueberry Astro Zero yogurt
PLUS
3 x FREE Cory Vines racerback tanks (no tax, free shipping included)
PLUS
25 x boxes of Honey Nut Hearty Oat Crunch cereal
PLUS
25 x movie ticket PINs

(To the Blueberry Zero yogurt, I add fresh blueberries which I purchased with $1.00 fresh berry coupons from MiniWheats cereal.)

Did I mention I love, love, love product packaging coupons and offers?
