Isn’t there a cellfire coupon on the Bisquick, too?

Hi there,
I thought you couldn’t combine Cellfire coupons with regular coupons (ie; the cereal deal scenario). Can you confirm that it is possible to use both together?

thanks!

Liza August 3, 2011 at 8:52 pm

I had no trouble combining them.

According to the official coupon policy, it is not allowed. However, it was discovered that it works. So, I asked Lowes Foods on their Facebook page, and was told it was ok.

If you don’t feel comfortable, you could print 3 Cocoa Puffs coupons, and still get them all free!

Thank you! Unfortunately, Lowes didn’t accept ANY of my coupon.com coupons, so I was unable to do this deal :( Not one of the coupons would scan! Such a bummer.

they should type in the scan bar, my coupons don’t scan do to my low dye :) so they always type in and it works, talk to customer service or manager…

It’s in their policy that if an internet/printed coupon won’t scan they can’t type it in. I think some stores will do it, but this one wouldn’t. Oh, well! I’ll just stick to Harris Teeter :)

Indre August 5, 2011 at 10:56 pm

Yes, I also read it too.. i think it means if it beeps they won’t accept it but there’s nothing about typing them in… I also use kroger’s or other competitor coupons like 5 off 25 etc. and they WON’T scan because it is competitor coupon, so they have to manually key in…. I think it depends on the cashier… sorry to hear that…

Woohoo! Just finished my first trip to Lowes. I couldn’t resist the free cereal! I spent $1.21 OOP and got six boxes of cereal, a box of Bisquick, Pantene conditioner, and a box of Beechnut Goodies (I had a couple of free coupons).

The Brownie Crunch did not seem to be included with this deal at my store. I had four of the printables for the regular Cocoa Puffs and two of the $.50/1 Cheerios, so with the Cellfire coupon, I got all six boxes for $.50. I thought that was pretty great!

The clerk refused my Cheez-It coupons due to missing barcode numbers and would not scan the digital barcode at the top, which appears to be the one to scan. She also rang them up several times instead of voiding- now I must a-void her when I go back to try again this week!

Went back today to do the Kellogg’s deal. Including some more free cereal I got using the $.75/1 Cocoa Puffs coupons, I got 16 boxes of cereal for $10.78. After the gas cards I’ll be getting from the Kellogg’s/Cars 2 codes, that is 16 boxes of cereal for $.78! Add that to the total from yesterday, and I paid $1.99, including tax, for 22 boxes of cereal, a box of cookies, a box of Bisquick and a bottle of Pantene. I am so excited!!! My kids had better make this cereal last! I can’t imagine finding a deal this good for a while. Thank you so much for posting these deals! I never would have found them on my own!

how many printers you got lol ? :) if you bought 16 boxes i am assuming you are using 16 of $0.75/1 coupons… did u buy the coupons? or printed? share those amazing secrets ! :)

Liza August 5, 2011 at 11:17 pm

LOL! Only one printer, but two computers. I found the $.75/1 Cocoa Puffs coupons on coupons.com (though I always print mine through swagbucks.com), and on couponnetwork.com. That made 8 total of those, but I only used six. I had 4 of the $.70/1 coupons for the Crunchy Nut boxes I got (found in the RP from 7/10, I believe), and I printed four of the $1/3 Kellogg’s coupons from Kellogg.com, although I later found them in one of my recent RPs. I haven’t scrutinized my receipt yet, but I was expecting to pay about $12, so I’m really not sure how it got so low. Not going to complain!

does anyone know on the cereal deal how many coupons on the same item will they accept ? I read on their policy “With the purchase of two like manufacturer’s products, we accept two internet coupons per day”, so does it mean i can only get 2 cocoa puffs per day ? :( anybody tried 3 cocoa puffs per transaction?

Reply

Liza August 5, 2011 at 11:22 pm

If that is the case, I ignorantly broke the rules. I haven’t looked at the coupon policy yet. The cashier didn’t say anything about it. I hope I haven’t broken any rules. :(

ok so it worked for cereal I bought 2 sets = 6 total and it took off 6 dollars yay !

I did the same thing for the cereal and got 18 boxes and a gallon of milk for $1.58 (that included the taxes). Woo HOO!!! Milk was on sale for $2.77 a gallon and I had a $2 off coupon, making that 77 cents. The cereal was free except for taxes of 5 cents for every three boxes. I did have to make separate transactions but worth it for the price!
