Giant Eagle Cookie Crisp Cheap

At Giant Eagle, I stopped in because they double most coupons up to .99 cents, yes there was a rumor they were getting rid of the doubling, but because of so many complaints or something, about two weeks after the announcement, they have decided not to go through with it.... so I hear. I do not usually shop at GE but was right next to one so decided to price check with some of my high value coupons, plus a lady had told me about the cookie crisp deal. So some General Mills cereals this week, the ad going right now, are 6 for $10, and when you buy 6 you get, instantly, $3 off at the register, making them 6 for $7. A good deal on its own, BUT, there is a coupon .75 off of 2. So use 3 of these coupons, GE will not double this coupon though because the coupons states "not to be doubled" or something like that. I was not sure if it would double or not, so I decided to get 12 boxes and see what happens at the register. After the coupons, not doubled, made 6 boxes for $4.75.... The kicker?? There is a coupon on the box to get a FREE box of those fruit Stackers snacks.!!! cool! So now for $4.75 you are not only getting 6 boxes of cereal, you are also getting 6 boxes of fruit stackers whenever you want!! So the coupon did not double, so I went back in with 6 boxes to return them, telling them I did not want them because they did not double and they went ahead and doubled the coupon and gave me some money back. So 6 boxes were a total of $2.50!! and my other 6 boxes were $4.75. Not bad, and they do not expire until sept. 2008 so we have plenty of time to use them up. If you are reading this in time, go get 'em!!
