How to work this deal:

The best deal here is the 18 double roll Angel Soft toilet paper! On sale for $10.99, that still works out to be 30¢ per regular roll. That can be dropped to just 16¢ per roll with this deal!

Expect to make 2 transactions this trip and do this deal first.

Because you get $10 back on the second transaction, you can figure in that $10 as savings on your purchase. If you buy 2 packages of Angel Soft, that would mean $5 off each package, making the cost only $5.99 each or 16¢ per single roll!*

The two packages of Angel Soft costs $21.98, so you need to use a couple of "filler items" from the participating products for the $3.02 to get to the required $25 purchase.

Hunt's 24oz Ketchup is on the list 4/$5, which is $1.25 each (reg. $1.75) and SmartSource.com has a printable coupon for 25¢/1, which makes the final cost $1 each. (Buy 4) A great stock-up price at 56% off!

Or Wolf's Chili is on sale 3/$3.99, which is $1.33 each (reg. $2.09) and there is a Blinkie machine on the shelf with coupons for 35¢/1, which makes the final cost 98¢ (Buy 4 & use 4 coupons.)

Purchase just the toilet paper and filler items and you will get a $10 off coupon - just like getting handed a $10 bill! Take your items to the car, come back and purchase the rest of your shopping list items and use your $10 catalina coupon to take $10 off of your purchase.

Of course, if you don't want that much toilet paper, you can always just get one package and stock up on the other items.

Here is how I made this deal: 4 Hunt's (with coupons), 3 Wolf's Chili (with coupons), 2 Swiss Miss Hot chocolate (my husband asked me to get him hot chocolate anyhow) and one package of Angel Soft.

The pre-sale/pre-coupon price was $30.54 and this deal was like paying only $10.93 for a 64% savings!

*I always count double rolls as 2 single rolls, so an 18 count double roll package equals a 36 count single roll package. Divide that number into the cost and you get the "cost per single roll."
