First up: Sunscreen Catalina Deal
Banana Boat and Hawaiian Tropic sunscreens are part of a “Buy $25, Get $10 Catalina” offer this week at Meijer.
My Algonquin Meijer was out of every Hawaiian Tropic product other than the after-sun aloe, so I collected prices for Banana Boat:
Banana Boat Sport 8oz. and 10oz. bonus bottles: $6.79
Banana Boat Kids 8oz. tubes: $7.79
Banana Boat Protect & Hydrate 6oz. bottles: $7.99
Banana Boat Triple Defense Men 6oz. bottles: $7.99
Ibotta has four different $1.25 offers running on these four varieties of Banana Boat. The 6/29 SS has a $1 coupon, and here’s a $1 printable.
With four $1 coupons, you could buy one of each ($30.56.) Use four $1 coupons. Pay $26.56 and get a $10 Catalina. Get $1.25 back for each item from Ibotta. That’s $11.56 for four, or $2.89 each!
Because my store had the 10-ounce bonus-size Sport bottles, I opted to do the deal a different way so I could take home more sunscreen.
I bought three Banana Boat Sport 10oz. bottles and one Banana Boat Kids 8oz. tube. I used four $1 coupons. I paid $24.16 and got a $10 Catalina. I got $2.50 back from Ibotta, so that’s $11.66 for four, or about $2.92 each. For the extra .03 per bottle, I ended up with 38 ounces of sunscreen vs. 30 over the original scenario — almost like getting another free bottle!
Unadvertised Orange Juice Deal
I saw shelf tags near the orange juice advertising a “Buy $10, Get $3 Catalina” offer on Meijer brand juices. I bought five 59-ounce cartons of Meijer OJ for $2 each. I paid $10 and got a $3 Catalina. That’s $7 for five cartons, or $1.40 each!
Unadvertised Bath Tissue Deal
I spotted a “Spend $10, Save $3” ecoupon on Mperks for Meijer bath tissue. I bought one Meijer 6 Mega Roll bath tissue for $6.29 (equivalent to 24 regular rolls – they are some seriously large rolls!). I also bought one Meijer 6 Double Roll bath tissue for $3.99. That’s $10.28 — after the ecoupon, I paid $7.28. If we look at the regular roll equivalencies, this works out to about .20 per regular roll. That’s a good price.
Advertised Deals
I also did the “Buy 8” sale on Keebler products. I bought four $1.69 Keebler Club Crackers and Town House Pretzel Thins. And, I bought four $1.49 Keebler cookies. I used two $1-off-2 cracker coupons from the 6/29 RP, and I used four $1.50 cookie coupons from Kellogg’s Family Rewards. This dropped the crackers to $1.19 per box, and all of the cookies were free.
Lastly, I did a round of “Buy 10 for $10, Get the 11th FREE.” I bought nine Old El Paso taco shells for $1 each. I also bought two bags of Pepperidge Farm Goldfish crackers for $1 each. I used three $1-off-3 printable coupons for the taco shells. I paid $8 for everything — like getting the taco shells for about .66 per box, paying for one $1 Goldfish and getting the next bag free!
Now I’ve got the $10 sunscreen Catalina and the $3 juice Catalina for my next trip to Meijer…
