O.K. ladies, what we have this week at Randalls/Safeway/Tom Thumb etc. is what is really the PERFECT Storm in couponing! We have a store sale, coupons, and a catalina coming back!
There are SO many things going on in this sale that you need to read this post through CAREFULLY!
I am going to do more scenarios with the catalinas in another post, this one will get too long.
I am going to repost this a few times this week so don’t yell at me if you are a reader that checks a few times a day. A lot of people jump on every other day or so and they miss these great deals like this and I don’t want anyone with a Safeway store to miss it!
I walked in to day with no plan but to check out what was on sale. I had 1 insert with me and that is it! The kind of savings I got is something that I usually see at Kroger.
My total above was $54.42
After coupons and Randalls Card: $18.67
I saved 74%!

Hi, trying to pull all my coupons and you mentioned that you used the following 2 cps ($0.75 off 3 Betty Crocker Fruit Snacks & $0.50 off Cereal Treat Bars) but i only see where you bought 2 Fruit Roll Ups and I didn’t see any cereal bars on your list. Am i missing something ???
I bought Golden Grahams cereal bars, they are the yellow box. I am at work posting this with my kids trying to stay busy and they have already eaten a box of fruit roll ups.
I just give you guys my transactions and scenarios as an example, you don’t need to follow it exactly, I wanted everyone to see what good deals there were.
Quick Question .. for your first transaction — was the $4.00 catalina from the 4 reach tooth brushes? I went yesterday and did not notice the catalina machine was out of paper until it did not print. The cashier loaded the paper and said if I had qualified it would have printed. Just wondering. Thanks!
Yes it is for the Reach toothbrushes. Email catalina company and tell them what happened, have your receipt with you can they can send you your catalina!
Thank you so much! Will do that.
One quick question.. can you stack coupons loaded to your Randalls card with paper coupons ? Just signed up for Just for U and not quite understanding the policy.
No you are not supposed to.
Hi Lynette- I have a Just for U Safeway card. I load everything on my card so unless I am looking for something specific because I know I loaded it….I have no idea what is on my card. The reason I load everything is to make sure I never miss a deal.
For instance I just had this happen this morning. I purchased 2 boxes of the Golden Grahams cereal treats. Reg Price: $5.58 / Card Savings $2.60 / J4U Mfr eCpn 60 cents. However, I gave them a coupon for (1) 60 cents which would have doubled to $1.20. At first I thought they missed my coupon then I noticed it was scanned and at the bottom of my receipt.
I both love and hate the Just4U program. I have to watch my receipt like hawk because the machine will take an automatic Just4U e coupon when my paper coupon is a better deal. In the past I have gone to the customer service and gotten a refund on the coupon difference. On the other hand the Safeway Just4U special prices, especially the personalized special prices that can be loaded on your cards, are awesome! especially when you stack them with a paper coupon. Last week I got 8 bags of Chex Mix free because the low personalized price of Chex mix on my Just4U card and I used 8 paper coupons.
My last piece of Just4U advice is my store allows you to loadsa FREE item monthly. June was free dozen eggs, July was a free chocolate pretzel snack, August has a free breakfast sandwhich, etc. if your store has the free item….remember to take advantage of it 🙂
I am trying to get the reach coupon but the link wont open. Is it no longer available?
Oh shoot I think they are gone!! 🙁
