Uncle Ben's arrives at Sobey's West, and now at my house-woohoo! (picture)

Attachment 273131

I have been drooling over the brags that those in the east have been posting about Uncle Ben's rice.
Now I am drooling over all the nice coupons I have (and the rice of course)!
The Sobeys West flyer had the tubs advertised for $5.99. So shopping I did go--

$77.87 13 × Uncle Bens rice tubs @ $5.99

-$11.98 SCOP on 2 buckets of rice as price scanned incorrectly on 2 different purchases :cheesygrin:
-$7.00 X $1 coupons used
-$13.00 worth of airmiles received
-$104. 00 26 X $4 coupons off any chicken :eek:
-$26.00 26 X $1 coupons for Uncle Bens Bistro Express Rice
=credit of $84.11 :top:

As the coupons were on the bottom of the tub, I had to
pour out half of the rice into another container to retrieve them. As such, I am thinking that
the food banks will be unable to take them. My family will be the beneficiary of alot of rice.
Many thanks to the SC community for alerting me to this deal! And thank you to Uncle Ben's
for putting on such a phenomenal deal!!

so glad you found them!!! and so many! great job!

Awesome! Those chicken coupons are awesome!!

Oh yes! You found gold! These chicken coupons are hotcakes for coupon traders. :)

How is that uncle ben's rice? Is it just plain rice packaged in a fancy tub or is it something processed? I would love to get in on this deal if it is just plain rice. :)

Wtg I hope they come to Sobeys here *fingers crossed*

I make the rice in the oven, here is the recipe I use

4 cups water
2cups rice
1/3 cup of soya sauce
1/3 cup of oil
1 10oz can pieces and stem mushrooms including juice
put all into a covered casserole dish
bake 350 for 1hr or little longer if too much liquid, taste that rice is done.
easiest rice dish ever

Thanks for the heads up! I didn't look at the Sobeys flyer this week!

great job! wow those are amazing coupons :) wish I had more money to stock up on those tubs just for the coupons! :)

Wow deal! Love if we get to use both rice and coupons, If there is brown rice I would like to buy them.

I don't understand this concept as you are putting out money for the rice? I know you are getting the chicken free. And that is all really I would use just the chicken coupon. I have five boxes of rice I got for free already. Zehrs had the tubs for I think 5.99. So in reality what would I be paying for the rice and the chicken?

Actually Zehrs has them on for $5.99 plus a 1000 pc points

Yes there is brown rice to. It is a 1.6 kg tub. The original kind is in a 2 kg. tub. Both say cooks in 20 minutes. Both are on special.

Now I have to try that recipe. I really like Uncle Bens rice a lot.

nice deals -hope it comes to sobeys here too
