When The Student Becomes The Master, Part Two

Back in April, my fiance went on his very first coupon shopping trip, with impressive results: he snagged 20 free Lunchables plus $18 in catalinas. But it gets even better!

Catalinas

You see, I thought it was unusual that it printed out an odd number of catalinas. There’s different types of catalinas, and in my experience, this type usually generates one catalina per item purchased. Since he purchased 20 Lunchables and received 18 catalinas, I had a hunch that perhaps two more should have printed; so I emailed Catalina Marketing to inquire, and sure enough, I was right! I just received this envelope in the mail, containing $2 in catalinas.

Charmin & Bounty Deal

Also, I wanted to update you on the Charmin/Bounty deal from way back in March. I had been told that a representative from Catalina Marketing would call me back the next day, but I never heard back and did not receive anything in the mail; so I sent them a follow-up email to find out what was up. The representative who wrote me back did confirm that the deal ended on March 2nd. I let them know that the item was still tagged in the store on March 3rd, when I made my purchase, and they told me to take it up with Safeway. So at least I finally know what happened!
