Went to IN Meijer today - I am presuming that IL will start the sale on Thursday.
They have a deal:
Buy 2 Crystal Light On the Go's - Get a Free 24 Pack of Water.
There are Meijer Mealbox (MBQ) Coupons for $1 off any Crystal Light Purchase that you can stack with the $2 off 2 or the $1 off 1 Man Q that were available now and last month - Prinatable.
It gets even better that when you buy 4 Crystal Light - You get a $2 OYNO Catalina that prints.
And even better yet again - if you bring in those coupons for free Crystal Light Skin Essentials when you buy (1 or 2) Crystal Light Products (there are two different coupons out there).
Just as an FYI - The Crystal Light Skin Essentials triggers the free water; however, it does not produce the $2 Catalina.
So this is what you do:
Buy 4 Crystal Lights On the Go
Buy 2 Crystal Light Skin Essentials
Buy 3 - 24 Packs of Water
All 3 Water Free
Use 4 $1 MBQ Coupons
Use either 2 $2/2 Crystal Light Q's or 4 $1/1 Crystal Light Q's
Use 2 - Buy Crystal Light - Get a Skin Essentials Free
So Crystal Light is priced @ $2.88 or $2.99 (Different @ both Meijers in IN)
2.99 x 6 = 17.94
- $4 in MBQ
- $4 in Man Q
- $5.98 in Free Skin Essentials
Total: $3.96 PLUS $2 CAT OYNO - So total OOP in $1.96
for 6 Boxes Crystal Lights AND 62 bottles of Water.
I have continued to roll this again and again.
LAST DAY!
Last day for this deal, as the Mealbox Crystal Light coupon expires today. If you missed stocking up on water at Dominick's during the Living Well sale, this is your best bet! It is CHEAP!
Meijer Mealbox Coupon Prints
I tried printing the crystal light coupons from the meijer website - can you only print one per computer - I am able to print more however they all have the same UPC. Thanks.
Mealbox
Mealbox coupons all do have the same UPC as they are store coupons. No worries :)
Free Essentials
I know I saw the q for the Free Skin Essentials but cannot locate it. Can anyone tell me where they found these?
Thank you.
Thanks Carli!!! I went
Thanks Carli!!! I went today!
There is a tear pad at the
There is a tear pad at the C.L. Dominicks . The coupon is for $2 off when 1 Nabisco Wheat Thin and 1 Crystal Light Product is purchased.
I did this deal today at Algonquin
and noted the price as $2.88 and that you had to buy the On the Go variety to get a free case of water (B2 get the water). So being in a rush and not having brought this note with me and thinking the box of Skin Essentials not labeled as On The Go I bought six boxes of them and two Skin Essentials so I could get three waters. I did forget to include another $2 Mfg. coupon and an extra Mealbox C (and it didn't help the free sugar coupon didn't come off receipt but she gave it back to me for another time). But was wondering if they consider the Skin Essentials the On the Go variety?
What triggers the catalina?
I have done this deal 3 times today and I only got the $2 catalina once! I am guessing it is the skin essentials type that gets you the catalina, because that was what was different between my orders. Does anyone know??
4 reg crystal light on the go
Another post I read indicated that is the purchase of 4 'regular' crystal light on the go boxes that trigger the catalina. By 'regular' I think that means not Skin Essentials and perhaps any of those varieties.
Not the skin essentials
I did the deal twice today; one time with skin essentials and one time without. Both times I got the $2.00 catalina, so I don't think it's the skin essentials.
:( I didn't get the cat...
I bought 6, I only had one skin q, had 2 $1/1, 1 $2/2, but wanted the 3 water anyway, so bought 6 to gos, (I thought skin e counts since it's in the same type of to go packets). 2 were the new Straw/Banana fiber, 2 sunrise, 1 white grape, 1 pom/lemon (skin e)...NO cat, rats! I thought it was a great deal anyway.
Now if I could print some more q's before they run out of this stuff!!!
MealBox Coupons for Crystal Light
will expire on 6/6/09, tomorrow, which you can stack with the mfg coupons.
Does Meijer roll
Can I roll the cat from this deal to my next order in same trip to store?
I rolled it
Just tonight and it worked great. I did 5 separate transactions, not knowing if it would stack. Only once did I not get the cat and it was my last one, so I brought my recipet to CS and they rescanned my stuff and gave me the cat. One of the nicest deals I have EVER done. I always get hasseled for my coupons and I just want to say THANK YOU!!! For posting this. I need to get to bed but am too high on coupon savings to do it LOL!
BTW, I did not push the water for the free skin essentials. I could have but my USCAN dude was so nice, I did not want to push him too far, KWIM? So I could have done even better...
Should be able to
You should be able to - I've always been able to roll at Meijer :)
Anyone know..
I see alot about IN. Has any one done this in IL yet? Just dont want to wast my time goining out there if not. Thanks ;)
It's in their online ad...
starts today, hope there's some left!!!
Loveyourcoupo...says yes
Scroll down and you'll see another blogger says this is working in IL. Happy shopping!
AWESOME DEAL
Thanks so much for posting this deal... it is AWESOME. I did it this morning along with the Kool-aide deal and have plenty supplies for cool drinks this summer. One more addition to the deal is adding two more Mealbox coupons to use on the Skin Essentials. Technically you are purchasing them even though you have a coupon making them free. Hope this was okay - I asked the self-check assistant and she seemed to think it was.
What Kool-aide
What is the kool aide deal?
This is the deal...
Meijer has Kool-aide packets on sale 10/$1 this week. If you buy 20, you get a catalina for a free 5 lb. bag of sugar on your next visit. There are also internet coupons for 50 cents off when you purchase 10 packets. Use two coupons and get 20 packs of Kool-aide for $1.00 and free sugar! I think you should be able to find coupons on coupons.com and kraftfoods.com (print limit one each).
One more thing re: kool-aide coupons
RE: the kool-aide coupons... when they were scanned at my Meijer they scanned at 20 cents each instead of 50 cents. They required the cashier to adjust the amount. It took a little bit, but in the end I did get the full coupon price.
At the Indiana Meijers that
At the Indiana Meijers that wouldn't work. Got into a five minute discussion with them over this and they wouldn't let me do this in Merrilliville or Highland.
Confused
They wouldn't let you do what?
I guess I may have gotten
I guess I may have gotten lucky here then. The self check cashier was scanning my coupons since I had the two free ones and it was easier for her to do them, so I handed them to her and asked if I could use them and she just scanned them right along with the rest of them. Either way it is an awesome deal. Thanks!!!!
It is awesome
It was an awesome deal anyway you look at it. I have 22 cases of H20 and well over 50 CL for under 10.00!!!!!!!!!!!!! Insane. I had lots of the BOGO skin essentials. My kids think I'm nuts. But they sure are lovin the CL. This was lots of fun!
Rolling Meadows Meijer
Does anyone have the name of a nice and or knowledgable employee at this store? I'd love to do this CL deal, but I still have Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome from my only three experiences at this store.
I have never been treated
I have never been treated kindly there. Honestly I really dislike Meijer too. I don't know what kind of training Meijer customer service people get, but I think it's along the lines of "Talk to the customer rudely right off the bat and be as condesceding as you can".
Call corporate
Call Meijer corporate. I haven't had to call but once on a customer service gal, but after filing my complaint, they had the district manager and the store manager both call me. I ended up with some nice gift cards and the next time I dealt with the same gal, she was very pleasant to me. Complaints are treated differently than they are when you call Dominick's.
I can spell, just typoed....
I can spell, just typoed....
Thats all great but...
Im glad to see it all worked out but what if you have no coupons for the B1G free Skin Essentials? How would a deal work then? Just use all my other$1 and $2/2? Bear with me im totaly new and need extra help!
Yep...
My Meijer was out of the Skin Essentials so therefore I couldn't use the BOGOF. I purchased 4 Crystal Lite On The Go packs and got 2 free water which totals $11.52 if they are $2.88 at your store. Then use 4 $1 off Meijer coupons and $4 worth of Manf. coupons (there at $2/2 and $1/1 out there on coupons.com). Your total will be $3.52 and you'll get the $2 CAT because the Skin Essentials doesn't generate the CAT. Then do it again and again using the $2 CAT on the next order and next order.
out of Skin Essentials
So the Merrillville Meijer is out of Skin Essentials. Had the stock guy looking everywhere including the backroom. But I still got the 4 On the Go, and 2 free cases of water for $3.52 (they were $.88 each). Then the second round I paid $1.52 with the $2 CAT. If I can find some more coupons, I'll be going again.
Coupons
They Coupons were printable and a lot of sites have dropped the skin essentials.
AND - most certainly - If you have 4 Buy 1 Crystal Light get 1 Crystal light Skin Essential Free - you can get more free water and skin essentials all in the same order - that is the ultimate deal and it would work perfectly.
Without the skin essential coupon - you just get 4 Crystal Light and 2 Waters from $1.96 (after the $2 Catalina).
Where are q's?
Last week I seemed to have only printed one of the q's for free Skin Essentials. Does anyone know where I can get a few more? And if not how would this deal work?
Coupons reset...
I had printed coupons last week or week before for the $1/1, the $2/2, and the free skin essentials. I was at the max printable. Last night I went on again and was able to print 2 from each computer again. I think they've been reset. They were at coupons.com. Hope this helps.
They did reset!
I thought so...I was pretty sure I was at my print limit on these as well...anyone notice another Kraft BBQ sauce out there ? Thought I was starting to dream up q's, while I was awake, heehee!
Not that I 'need' more bbq sauce, BUT if you did get some of those tearpads for $2 off meat WYB, extras of these could be nice :)
Skin Essentials Q
Why not use 4 of these (if you have them) and get and additional 2 OYNO? Or are they B2G1 Free?
Would cost more
If you wanted to use 4 BOGOF, you would have to take out the $4 in Manf. Q's. Otherwise you would be using to many coupons to items.
When you buy the 4 On the Go and 2 Skin Essentials, (if they're $2.88 each) it'll be $17.28. Take off $5.76 for the free Skin Essentials, use 4 of the $1 off Meijer coupons, and $4 (in some combination of the $1 and $2 coupons). This will make your total $3.52 (with the 3 free cases of water). So the 6 Crystal Lite will be .59 each or if you add in the water it's 9 items at .39 each.
If you use 4 of the BOGOF, (if they're $2.88 each) it'll be $23.04. Take off $11.52 for the free Skin Essentials, use 4 of the $1 off Meijer coupons. This will make your total $7.52 (with 4 free cases of water). So the 8 Crystal Lite will be .94 each or if you add in the water it's 12 items at .63 each.
Why?
I don't understand why you would not be able to use your Manufacturer Q's if you use 2 more Skin Essential Q's.
If you buy
4 Crystal Light on the Go
4 Skin Essentials
4 Water
Can't you use:
4 MB $1/1
4 Manufacturer $1/1 (or 2 $2/2) Q's
4 FREE Skin Essentials When you Buy 1 Crystal Light Product
Wouldn't this work and not be too many coupons? And the additional two Skin Essentials would generate the 4th free water?
Also, does this work in the self checkout? I imagine the Free Skin Essentials Q requires the cashier to input a dollar amount.
I did the same thing
I did the same thing yesterday. It worked with no problem.
They also have a pretty good deal on the Splenda large bags and small bags. There's a manf q from 3/26 I believe for 3/2 and they have 1/1 on their website. Bags cost 4.94 and 1.86 so 6.80-5.00=1.80 for both or 1.86 and 1.86 -3.00= .72 for 2 small bags. ( they would not let me use their internet Q's due to overage.)
It does work
This does work. I did it last night at Meijer in Merrillville. I bought:
4 Crystal Light on the Go's
4 Skin Essentials
4 waters
I then used the 4 MB Q's, 4 Man Q's, and 4 FREE Skin Essential Q's. My total was $3.52!!! :) I then recieved my $2 Cat OYNO! I rolled that Cat into my next order and only paid $1.52! :)
Please note that the SKin Essentials ONLY does not produce a Cat but it will trigger a free water. When combined with the 4 On the Go's you will get the Cat and a bonus free water for the Skin Essentials.
Well...
I think you may be right. I think I confused myself in trying to help you. Wasn't that a bunch of help. lol... It sure sounds like you are right and you could do that. Given the fact that they aren't out of the Skin Essentials! I hope it works, let me know. Sorry for the confusion.
Good Point!
I have never been able to find the Skin Essentials at My Meijer East Bolingbrook Location. I don't know if they simply dont carry them or if I am somehow missing them. thanks for this great post! I can't wait to hit Meijer tomorrow!
Where did you find the Skin Essentials Q??
First of all, this is an AMAZING deal!! Thank you so much for posting!! I hope it starts in IL on Thursday, I have all my coupons ready :)
It is a great deal w/o the Free Skin Essentials, but I would love to include those in my trip, where did you find those q's?
I am new to this wonderful word of SQ and was wondering if this was something that you would roll in the self checkout? Did any of the q's beep? Or any probs w/cat prints?
Thanks!!
AMAZING!!!
I'm glad I didn't buy water today, I was just lamenting that I'm out....LOVED those sport bottles....
Awesome!
I can't wait to head over to Meijer in the A.M. Thanks for the deal!
So...
What's the story, guys? Working in IL today? :)
Yeap!
Yes, it is working in IL. A great deal!
