Great Deals at Meijer

The picture you see above was the end result of an epic quest. The great Meijer Mealbox coupon quest. It really was almost like the Holy Grail. I’ve never worked so hard for Oscar Meyer in all my life.

So last week, Lunchables were on sale. (Yes, I know, I didn’t tell you. I was going to tell you, but then there was a quest…. And I promise they’re still a good deal.)

So, like I said, Lunchables Subs were on sale last week for $1.25 each. (They’re normally $1.50.) I went to Meijer, naively thinking I would be able to use my $.75 printable and my $1/2 Meijer Mealbox coupon. Well, boy, was I in for a surprise. I got to the checkout, and the cashier said I couldn’t use both. So I asked her to check with someone else. And whoever that magical person was also said that I couldn’t use both coupons. So I very politely asked to speak with a manager, certain that I would straighten everything out. And then Mr. Grumpy Shorts showed up. Wow. Someone peed in his Cheerios that morning, and I was the recipient of his unfortunate mood. He told me in no uncertain terms that he knew the policies, and he didn’t care what the Meijer website said, I couldn’t use both coupons. Well, it was then that I told the cashier to please void my order and I left. This was the store on Prospect, and I got a call from some high up person at the store this Monday who said that there wouldn’t be a problem using my manufacturer coupons and mealbox coupons together. So I ended up at the Urbana Meijer extremely late Saturday, and they took my coupons no problem.

Ok, now, on to the deal. The epic quest story was only for your amusement. Here’s how it went:

8 Oscar Meyer Lunchables Subs – $1.25
Used $.75 printable and a $1/2 Meijer Mealbox coupon so they were free, but normally they’d still only be $.25.

1 Clorox Toilet Wand – $9.99
Use the $5 printable and I’m planning to send in for this $5 rebate. And I’ve tried the wand, and it is AMAZING!

I also used a $1 off $10 purchase coupon, so this was a great deal.

Total Cost: $20.84
Coupons: $16
GC: $4.84

And may I also say, the Lunchables Subs make for an amazing lunch?
