Deal on Pectin at Fred Meyer - free sugar and $2 a package plus Catalina

Pectin and Sugar Deal At Fred Meyer

Here is an email we received from fab FruGal Cathy:

When I was at the Fred Meyer in Meridian this week I noticed they now have store coupons for a free 5 lb. bag of Fred Meyer sugar (shelf price of $2.79) when you buy 4 boxes or bags of pectin. The boxes are currently on sale for $2 each.

Scenario

Buy 4 boxes of Pectin for $2 each = $8
Buy 1 5 lb bag Fred Meyer sugar for $2.79
use (4) $1/1 Sure Jell, Certo, or MCP Product coupon from 5/16 SS (-$4.00)
use the Fred Meyer store coupon for free sugar (-$2.79)
PAY OOP: $4.00 + tax
Receive a $3 catalina

Final Price: $1.00 for 4 boxes of pectin and 5 lbs. of sugar!

This was copied from the Fabulessly Frugal blog (http://fabulesslyfrugal.com/)If you don't have the coupons it's still a good deal if you need pectin as you get the free sugar and the $3 Catalina. A Catalina is a coupon towards your next shopping order, you can buy pretty much anything with it. ~Janay C.
