Breakfast at Safeway and other deals


I was in Safeway the other day for something minor and the clerk said she hadn't seen me in awhile. I replied that there were no good deals lately. That has changed!

My trip tonight included two orders of 4 boxes of Quaker Oatmeal Squares and 4 boxes of Quaker Instant Oatmeal. After all coupons and doublers I paid $3.04 for the first order and rolled the cat into the second order and paid $1.04 and still have a $2 cat for later. I could have done 4 orders and made money in cats, but my store has gotten serious about handing over the doubler and they no longer have ads available thanks to a bunch of piglets who took all the ads by Friday of Super Bowl weekend and left the store with no ads Saturday through Tuesday.
