UPDATED Wednesday July 1 - I bought 3 boxes of the sale cereal one cocoa puffs / 1 total and 1 cheerios and got my $4.50 off milk coupon Cat AND a $1.50 off 3 GM cereals Catalina. There is no advertising in store on this at all.

HOORAY! I popped into Safeway this morning to pick up some .49 cent Ballpark dogs / Ray's BBQ sauce, Eggo's and Kraft singles and  received this advertisement Catalina with my receipt.

Sorry the printing scanned so faint but it says .......

Purchase Dates:

Buy Big G Cereal between 7/1 & 7/9

Buy (3-5) boxes, get ONE coupon for $4.50 off Milk

Buy (6-8) boxes, get TWO coupon for $4.50 off Milk .. to be used on your next shopping order.

All items mus be purchased in one shopping order. Limited to product in stock. No cash back. Offer expires 7/7/09. --

*notice there is a conflict the buy dates states it ends 7/9. - I called  Catalina Marketing and sent this scan to them I am waiting for a resolution and I am trying to find out if this is a nationwide promotion or limited to my region.

This deal has been reported in Colorado as well so it's looking good.

The Big Question is will it be ANY Big G because if so the deal has HOT potential as there is a 3 for $6 ($2 each) sale thru 7/7. Online prices (NorCal) range from $3.99 to $4.99 for other GM cereals.

These are the $2 cereals.

• Cheerios 8.9 oz.
• Total 10.6 oz.
• Trix 10.7 oz.
• Golden Grahams 12 oz.
• Cocoa puffs 11.8 oz.

If you haven't yet signed up your Safeway Club Card for the Cellfire and Shortcuts e- coupons NOW is a great time to do so becuase you will be able to stack the ecoupons with paper coupons. See the match ups below.

Internet Printables

• Betty Crocker HERE .75 cents off Fiber One / .75 cents of Multi grain Cheerios / .75 cents off Total / .55 cents off Bannana Cheerios
  
• Pillsbury HERE same as above but different link so you can print 2 more per computer
  
• Box tops for Education HERE more of the same but again 2 more per computer of each.
  
• HERE is one final link with these cereal coupons
• Cheerios $1 off 2 HERE - frosted, fruity, apple or yogurt
  

Inserts

• $1 off 3 any GM cereals from 6/28 Smart Source
• $1 off any 3 GM cereal from 5/31 Red Plum

Each of these is seperate links so you'll be able to get a lot of coupons. If you want to maximize this deal buy 6 in a transaction to get two coupons and then purchase 6 in a seperate transaction to get 2 more. Space them out over seperate days to get the longest possible expiration dates on your Catalinas. I will go to the store tomorrow and be the guinea pig for us all and report back.

I have a big question on the coupon and ad. There was a ad at our store in Mt. view that buy any 3 gm cerals and get 1 gallon of milk free. I tried buying the 3 cheerios and did not get any coupon from cat! Now my question is, is the ad wordings are wrong that only 1 gallon free milk or does it change at each place? Anyone from south bay get the cat with 2 gallons free milk? Thanks for any help.

Found a new printable

Just found this printable $1.00/2 coupon for Cocoa Puffs, Golden Grahams, and Trix (and others, but those are the $2 cereals). I bought three Totals today, paid .75 after my printables doubled and the Cellfire .75 came off. Got two gallons of milk and 3 boxes of cereal for $2.23! Thanks, AFS!

Sorry they always update / change coupons at the beginning of the month BUT there are lots of printables still available for this deal in fact the .75 cents off one is a better value than $1/2. I have updated both posts w/ current printable and insert coupons.

No more $1/2

I tried to print the $1/2 GM cereal coupon and it's been removed from all the links you listed

Thanks!

I did call Catalina but they weren't open so I emailed them. I also headed back to the store to return and purchase some other cereals in a second attempt, but the very nice folks at the customer service counter asked what value the coupon was for and simply handed me the $9 cash. And then the refunded my extra Kraft single overcharge without complaint. Thanks for helping me not feel crazy!

Shopped at the Alhambra & J st location, told the guy I was looking for a Cat so he popped open the machine to make sure it was loaded up properly and ready to go but no Cat And it didn't give me anything at all. Not only that BUT the .99 kraft singles states limit two, but it didn't take a discount off both packages of singles... just ended up paying .99 for one package and the full price ($4.49) for the other even though the coupon states LIMIT 2. My husband loves when I head back to the grocery store YET again... even if it's to get $ back

Karen -
Where are you located? And did the Cat machine give you anything ? could be a machine malfuntion. I went to a Self Check Out and watched the customer in front of me so I knew the machine was working .

Didn't work for me
written by Karen L, 01 July, 2009

Ok, I went today to give it a try and it didn't work for me. I purchased 6 of the 3/$6 cheerios and no cat

The above links take me to Multigrain cheerios, Total, Fiber One & Banana Cheerios coupons. I don't see any of the coupons listed above. What am I doing wrong?
