I know some were posting in the sales ad thread about scenarios for the catalina for next week but thought we could all post here with suggestions or what we ended up doing. Here are the details:



And on the side it says:
When you buy:
4 products= $1.00
6 products = $1.50
8 products= $2.00
10 products= $2.50
20 products= $ 5.00
40 products= $10.00

Now, it does not say 40 DIFFERENT items so not sure if that is what they are expecting or what. Also, it will depend greatly on any FLIPS that come out next week and it also depends on what you might need in your house. I am going to check out FL prices for napkins and such too but here are 31 items at $25 something so far. You could easily add on 9 more biscuits so it would bring the total to $28+ OOP, but then receive $10.00 OYNO catalina. Actually, I would probably get another milk because we go through 2 a week, then have to add on 8 more of something!

9- 3/$1.00 FL Biscuits 3.00
2/$3 Smart Option Sausage- use $1/$3 FLIP 2.00
1 FL Milk 3.09
1 18 ct FL eggs 1.89
2 FL Hot Dog Buns- use $1/2 FLIP 1.00
2 bags FL cornchips- use $2/2 FLIP (1.79 each) 1.60
1 FL Soda- use $1.00 FLIP 1.50
10 FL canned veggies 6.90
2 FL bacons 4.00
1 Home 360 Wipe- use $1.50 FLIP .12


What are some of your thoughts?

Great scenario!! Thanks for posting it!

My first thought after reading it was "Omg, the last thing I need is more biscuits!" LOL! I have TONS of those now after the last two weeks!! Still a great scenario though, I hope someone tries this or another one and lets us know!

I wonder if it rolls? If it does I came up with some stuff.


3 for 1 dollar Biscuits
1 Yougurt .40
Total 1.40 get 1.00

2 Hotdog buns
2 Chex Mix
Total 1.38-1.00=.38 get 1.00

FL Bread
2 Chex Mix
Total 1.13-1.00=.13 get 1.00

FL 12 pack
360 Wipes
2 Hot Dog buns
Total-1.61-1.00=.61 Get 1.00

2 Can's of Veggies
1 FL 12 Pack
360 Wipes
Total 2.00-1.00=1.00 get 1.00

Im sure I could come up with 100 more

I also wonder how many times you can go the deal to get the catalinas.

Tricia, dh has banned me from the biscuits. The entire bottom drawer in the fridge is filled and we have probably 15 or so cans in the freezer.

I didn't know you could freeze biscuits. That is probably a good thing not to know.

I have about 60 FL biscuits in my deep freeze right now! Probably have 20 Pillsbury along side of those!! I just take them out the day before I need them, thaw them out in the fridge and then use them the next day! Works perfectly!

I asked the mgr today if Home 360 and Smart Options were included in this sale and he said no.

I am thinking we might want to test that theory.
