I was planning on getting 5 of the 50 oz Tides for under $6.50 each. I wanted to get over $30 for the P&G deal. But when I got to the store, they were $7.54, and there was HEB yellow $2 off coupons. I did a little math quick and figured the larger 100 oz size for $11.97 was actually a better deal per ounce. I did a quick video explaining what I did.

 

Tonight I ran into HEB to test out the P&G $10 catalina deal. The cool thing is that they have HEB yellow coupons “M” that are $2 off Tide, so you don’t have to use your $2 coupons! However the Tide is more than I thought, it was $7.54, maybe it is lower at different HEB’s. But the larger 100 oz was only $11.97. I also wanted to see if it would “roll” which it does!

The deal is that when you purchase $30 in P&G products you get $10 back in the form of a catalina to sue on your next shopping trip.

Total Spent: $79.26

Total Saved: $75.60

This was my first transaction:

Transaction #1
Buy 3 Tide 100oz $11.97
Use 3 $2/1 Tide coupons (either from 10/30 P&G or Yellow HEB store coupons)
Total: $32.38
Get Back: $10 catalina

Price per ounce: $.074

I then went to do it again and see if it “rolled”.

I had a bunch of BOGO and other coupons that expired on 10/30 and 10/31 so I wanted to use them up.

** You only need to buy **4** of the 50 oz Tide if the price is $7.54 at your store.
