For anyone wondering, just recycling or prepaid gc purchases will not count as a purchase.

@ohsheet I keep getting $15 coupon off your next purchase wyb $60 ProPlan dog food. Coupon will print on receipt (in store) or be emailed.

I don’t have any dogs. I wonder if I only bought dog food if they’d send me deals for cat food.

OT: I opened a can of ProPlan cat food and it wasn’t full. I contacted Purina CS. They sent me coupons for a bunch of Fancy Feast and another supermarket brand. I mailed the q’s back to them saying I don’t feed that stuff and could they send me q’s for ProPlan instead. We’ll see what happens. The last time this happened they sent me >$75 worth of ProPlan q’s so I was disappointed to receive q’s for supermarket food.

@chryslerguy The coupon code was in the ad but there isn’t a coupon to clip. Looks like they messed up.

Any winners today?

How do you get the form to work? No matter what I do the submit button stays disabled.

There is a video you have to watch and 2 boxes you have to check.

Yep doing all the things and putting in my email, and button still not clickable.

Did you watch the video? I had to watch it to make it clickable.

Thanks so much for this. Kids are getting NutriGrain bars for Halloween. Maybe some CheezIts.
There’s been 50¢/1 NutriGrain bars on iBotta. This week the 24/box NutriGrain and CheezIts are $2.97/box at Shaw’s. Found some dented boxes 50% off. Now have 116 treats. Usually get 85 -100 kids depending on weather and if it’s a school night.

Might as well get the Free with purchase kids paint set if you’re buying Sharpies.

They made it very clear that the programs are mutually exclusive when WM cash began. I never linked my WM and iBotta accounts because I prefer iBotta $ to WM cash. There was recently a notice on iBotta that linking to WM was experiencing difficulty and it was taking longer than usual for things to track. So someone could try using a linked account and scanning as well to see what happens.

Shaws got donut again.

@mrvietnam They are not tied to the account that earned them.

@marvomatic said in Amazon Four Flags" Booklet of Forever Stamps 1 sheet of 20 stamps U $15.60 Post Office | $14.91 Apply $2 Cpn $12.91Total ExpUnk:

@my4mainecoons Can you prove, that they are counterfeit? I rest my case! LOL

Have to see them up close. There are markings on genuine ones to distinguish from fakes. The price in itself is an indication.

Using fakes means USPS doesn’t get the money and contributes to the need to increase postage rates.

OTH, if @MrVietnam were the seller I’d trust him 'cuz I know where those stamps come from.😃

@marvomatic That doesn’t mean that he’s not selling counterfeits.

@mrvietnam There’s a list showing the dates that each period runs on one of the pages. Scroll down. The first one ends Aug. 25.

GC offer isn’t in my ad and no kiosk signs. No 10x for Zift cards offer advertised either.
I bought no fee MC gc’s to get the free with purchase Post It notes at Staples using 5% back Chase Ink.
Then used the MC gc at Shaw’s to see what happened if bought $50 Zift.
Received the $10/$10 and 4x points (200 points).

@mtnagel I marked my calendar 😃.

@mrvietnam said in $40 off a $75 Online Grocery Order exp 8/19 (Cof'd Acme, ymmv at other chains):

I can’t find that offer here in SoCal.

It’s targeted.

I didn’t say that the 10% vaccine q wouldn’t stack with J4u. I was pointing out that by law you cannot get a coupon discount on certain products like tobacco, gc, alcohol, lottery tickets, etc.

2 j4u won’t stack. So if Zillions gc are 10x that won’t become 20x on the weekend.

Usually Zillions are part of the $10/$10 coupon wyb $50. That’s not 10x points.
Do you have a different offer such that you earn 10x points and not a $10/$10 q wyb $50?

Do you have a different offer from the other j4u stores? We get 4x the value on gc on Sat & Sun.

They won’t stack to get 20x, but I think you’ll get 12x, as the 2x offer is general to ALL gift cards (not sure if the wording says 'can’t be combined with any other offer) but don’t recall seeing that wording. My guess is you get 12x if no wording on the digital to exclude it.

No. 10x only.

I got $15 yesterday. I haven’t been able to play again since winning. TheT&C says one win per period.
@mtnagel did you win twice on the same account?

Word of caution re: Lowe’s gc which are part of this offer.

1. If you pay for an order through TCB with a Lowe’s gc you will not earn any cb. It’s in the fine print.
2. If you purchase online using a gc and return the item in-store they will issue a gc that can only be used in-store. It cannot be used for an online order.

@yoregano So your stores did have Zift cards? 😁

You will only get one j4u offer: 10x, not 20x, 12x or 14x. No one believes me 😋.

So one can only earn the value of 10x points, 400 as points + $10 q.
Need to do 3 transactions @$50 each to earn a $20/$20.
$142.50 in gc gets you $50 in groceries if you’re using a 5% back cc.

I’d rather receive the non-expiring 100 points (Fresh Pass) instead of the $10 coupon which has an expiration date but oh well.

@yoregano Hard to believe that your store doesn’t carry at least one of them.
All of these have Amazon.

I can’t read the ad. Please list the participating cards. Thanks.

Not in the Shaw’s ad but the offer might not be publicized this week. There’s a $5 off wyb $15 Chobani where the gc offer would usually be placed. In the past there were times when the offer wasn’t in the Safeway ad but people got the Q when they bought the gc.

OAN, Polar beverages are often 10/$10 but this week they’re 88¢ ea here. iBotta has 50¢ back for mixers and 50¢ back on seltzers or sodas. Both offers are L5. I bought 5 mixers, 5 seltzer, 15¢ worth of red grapes (25¢ back) , the free chocolate milk ($5 back, on sale for $3.99) and had a 10¢ for any receipt. Besides the purchase cb I earned 2@$5 in bonuses. One required 10 items, the other 13. $7xx MM.

Doing the same thing this week but instead just buying 3 sets of 5 Polar products to earn another 2@$5 bonuses. Smaller MM but I want the beverages and grapes take more effort, lol. Same 10 and 13 purchase requirements. Our sales week ends on Thursday so I purchased earlier in the week and held onto the receipts to start submitting them today, Thursday when the new bonuses come out.

@sonofzeus I don’t think you’ll get 10x and 2x, just 10x. Don’t think the 10% off will work on g.c. Check the T&C. Usually excludes liquor, tobacco, postage stamps, gc, liquid dairy and I can’t recall what else.

@sonofzeus said in Free Starry or Starry Zero 20 oz up to $3.99 with online rebate (requires Mobile Wallet):

Stopped at rarely visited Jewel to look for Zift Zillions cards that include Amazon. The relevant peg was empty.
I did find the one bottle of Starry Zero on the bottom shelf of the cooler. Submitted receipt. Venmo payment received in minutes.

Is there a new Zillions offer? Our ad won’t be out until midnight tonight. I need more Ace cards.

@Marvomatic Did you receive your P&G gc?

@briarycliffs It didn’t even let me get that far. It must have had the shipping address. I used a different email.

@briarycliffs TYVM! I tried but wasn’t able to use the QVC new member code.

@my4mainecoons said in Staples freebie 2 Sharpie pens 8/3-8/9/25:

these.

Can I get the freebie if I spend rewards plus a $1on a single order in store for home delivery?

I always end up with some oop when paying with Rewards because they can only be redeemed in whole dollar amounts. I would think that oop would be enough to count as “any purchase”.

I think they’re these.

The following week 8/10-8/16 is a pack of Post It notes. That’s the last freebie.

I need advice please.
I’ve purchased 2 Tracfones each with a year of service but didn’t activate the service in time on either of them.
I use cell phones with wifi for ibotta.
Now rebates and sites are requiring 2 factor verification with a text so I need something to receive texts. Texts and a way to call 911 if my car breaks down. Google phone won’t do.
The battery on the first one is going. It’s probably 8-9 yrs old. I like its size.
I can’t find the 2nd phone at all. It’s got to be here but I can’t find it. I didn’t like it anyway. It’s too heavy.
The one that hasn’t been used at all that’s too heavy is a moto e5 from HSN purchased in 2020.
I’d like a year of service and lightweight.

Does this one look ok?

@kimi said in Staples: Free Flash Drive with Purchase while supply lasts:

Picked up the free flash drive this AM. At my store, they are not in retail packaging. They are in little plastic bags, kept at the checkout counter. There is no item # on the bag.

Did you BOPUS or just find it at the store?

@mistercheap is there a way to check inventory?

PNY Attaché 3 16GB USB 2.0 Type A Flash Drive, Black (P-FD16GATT3-BG)
Coupon Code 96942

Only available online for me.

The first of the free school supply every week for 4 weeks.
It says any purchase so I might get a $200 Visa gc which has no activation fee this week.
Recycling gets rung up as a transaction. I wonder if that will work.

We got Celsius at Shaw’s last weekend. Don’t expect our next freebie until early August.

@yoregano I keep a few hundred in prepaid VC/MC on hand to pay for everything possible. I basically use Chase Ink for prepaids and Discover’s 5% categories. You can’t use prepaids online to buy 3rd party gc but they work on 3rd party cards B&M. There’s very little that I buy without at least 5% back.

@marvomatic I print the email receipt from Amazon from Gmail.

@yoregano I pay my electric bill with no fee prepaid Visa gc (Staples, Chase Ink). We get one free cc transaction per month.
You can buy gas (or any other) gc at a gas station and get 5% back from Discover as its a gas station purchase.
Chase Ink gives 5% back on phone & Internet year round so I have those on autopay.

I wanted the big bottles of Dawn, $12.94 each.
Limit of 3 per order. I need 4 to reach $50.
There’s a 2 pack for $25.98, 10¢ more than buying 2@$12.94.
2@$12.94 + 1@$25.98 = $51.86

@marvomatic It’s super easy. I print the Amazon receipt to PDF then use the Adobe Reader “pen” to circle the products. Save that then just upload it where it asks for the receipt. You need the UPC numbers from the products. When you start to enter them the P&G site will populate the product name.

Spend $50 on P&G products, get back $15 rebate and $15 Amazon credit.

I doubt that Dove (a Unilever product) works for the P&G rebate. P&G is Olay.

I haven’t seen Russ post for awhile so he may not know about it. I messaged him when the site was down recently but didn’t mention the 503 error.

Thanks @mtnagel.
It says Tillamook and Talenti are included but not Breyer?
