Sorry for the confusion!
For those of you that read this post by email or previously, when I made the deal idea post I mixed up before and after Catalina prices. Too much caffeine and not enough sleep I suppose. When I got in the store and realized my mistake I shot out like a bullet because I couldn't wait to get back to make corrections and almost left my husband in the restroom.
Anyway, to those of you that were pulling your hair out, I'm so sorry. The coupon match-up is corrected. You can view it HERE. I've updated the deal idea with correct prices HERE, It's not nearly as impressive, but it works! 32 items for $13.64.

February 19, 2011 at 7:09 amI used 4 $3 off next transaction catalinas in one transaction at the north ogden smith’s with no problem, if you go to the 12th st store in Ogden they will only use one per transaction. Just a heads up 🙂

February 16, 2011 at 8:56 pmThe ad doesn’t say there is a limit. You should take that one up with the manager.

February 16, 2011 at 5:32 pmAre the prices you’re showing before coupons including the $3.00 off ten discount and an additional discount? From what I can see on the Smith’s ads it’s only showing the $3.00 off ten discount when they give the marked down price, but your prices are lower than that. Am I missing something? I’m new to this, so forgive me if I’m a total spaz… 🙂

February 16, 2011 at 8:13 pmCourtney, No…I’m the total spaz this time. Apologies. I’ve updated the post. Hope you can forgive me. Stick with it. Thanks!!

February 16, 2011 at 10:00 pmNo worries! 🙂 Still a pretty great deal though!

February 16, 2011 at 2:13 pmI just got back from Smith’s. I did 3 transactions similar to yours. The catalina’s will roll. But, if you use more than one the register beeps and they have to override. Hope it helps. Thanks for your work 🙂
