Last Chance for Cheap Granola Bars and Fruit Snacks

The extra catalina at Albertsons ends tomorrow. So if you're not a Sunday shopper, today is the last day to take advantage of the extra savings on Natures Valley Granola Bars and Betty Crocker fruit snacks.

Here is how my transaction the other day played out:
5 boxes of Betty Crocker "Fruit Stickerz" snacks for $2 a piece
5 boxes of Natures Valley Granola Bars for $2.50 a piece
Used 5 of these coupons: Betty Crocker Fruit Roll-Ups Fruit Stickerz Fruit Flavored Snacks, any flavor box .50/1 (3-28-09) SS-2/1
and 5 of these coupons: Nature Valley Granola Bars, any flavor/variety box .50/1 (2-28-09) GeneralMillsSS-1/4

for a total of: $22.50 minus -$5.00 coupons

I then received a $10 "catalina" for buying 10 General Mills items, a $3.50 "catalina" for buying 5 fruit snacks, and a $3.50 "catalina" for buying 5 Granola bars.
That comes out to a grand total of $.50 for the 10 items!!!

(I realize that catalinas are not instant savings, but you use them to pay for your next transaction).
