General Mills Promo $5.00 catalina will print when you spend $15.00 or more on these participating products.

Remember that your total must equal $15.00 before taxes and coupons to get the catalina to print.  This sale is tricky because there are no even dollar amounts.  Remember that you want to be as close to $15.00 without going under as possible to get the best price.  Use the $.69 Green Giant Vegetables as fillers instead of spending more then you need to.

Example: Buy 6 boxes of cereal at $2.49 each = $14.94 so you are $.06 short.  Add a $.69 item or a $1.00 item that you have a coupon for to make up the difference.

CSI Magic Mud Show

Just want to let you all know that in the Student Union Building at CSI in Twin Falls they are having the annual Magic Mud show which is a fundraiser for the Art Dept.  They have about 20 different artists selling their wares including pottery, jewelry, silk scarves and some paintings.  I am one of the potter's so this is kind of self serving but it is for a good cause and there are some fabulous pieces, many of which are underpriced making it a great deal for you!  Help the Arts and get some great gifts!  Hours are Friday 9-6 and Saturday 10-4.

How to figure the percentage that you are saving!

I have been teaching people that if I do not save at least 60% on the item then I do not think it is a good enough deal to stock up on.  I have had a few people ask how I figure out what percent I am saving so I will try to explain.  When you are looking at the item in the store and it is normally priced $4.00 then after the sale and coupon that you are using, the item would need to be $1.60 or less.  To get this you take $4.00 x 40% which equals $1.60.  You times it by 40% so that tells you what the price needs to be to save at least 60%.  If the price after sales and coupons is higher then $1.60 then you are not saving 60%.  If it is lower then you are saving more then 60%.

Now this is how you figure it out for your whole bill.  

It is your total savings divided by TOTAL spent before savings.

Total Out of Pocket including taxes 19.12

Total Saved 266.26 (found at the bottom of Albertson's receipt or for Smith's you have to add them up: it says you saved a percent but it doesn't include all the savings)

Here's how I did it

266.26 saved + 19.12 oop Total spent=285.35

226.26 (saved) divided by 285.38 (total spent)=.079

You saved 79%
