Bisquick

I have always debated whether or not if I should write about the great deals I find at the grocery store or not. I finally decided to share one of these great deals. Albertsons is running a sale right now on Bisquick (40 oz. size) 2/$5. That in it's self is NOT a great deal, but along with that, if you buy $10 in Bisquick (and/or other participating items) Albertsons will give you $4 off your final grocery bill. So, if you buy 4 boxes of Bisquick for $10, take $4 off, then you just paid $6 for 4 boxes of Bisquick. OH BUT WAIT! I just found $1 off coupons for the Bisquick on ebay. So now my final price will be $2 for 4 boxes of Bisquick!!! Yup, I will end up paying $0.50 for each box of Bisquick!

OK, so here the one down fall to "buying" coupons off ebay, you don't get to choose the quantity of coupons you want to "buy", the seller does. So, I had to order 20-$1.00 off coupons, and well, I really don't need 20 boxes of Bisquick. So for anyone who is saying right now (and lives or will be in the Spokane area) "I wish I could get that same deal on Bisquick". You can! I am going to go ahead and buy all 20 boxes of Bisquick, and am willing to "sell" (probably) 10 of the boxes for $0.60 ($0.50=cost of Bisquick and $0.10=cost to ship each coupon to my house). If you are interested in buying some of the Bisquick, let me know. You can buy one box or all boxes.

***12/16/08 update**** So I went to Albertson's to cash in on my great deal and they didn't have as many of the Bisquick as I wanted, so I got a rain check and will be going back in, in a few days to get the Bisquick.

Just to give you an idea of how great a deal this is...the 40oz. Bisquick is normally $4.39.

If you take $3.89 (amount saved) divide it by $4.39. Total saved is 88%
