I had a good trip to Safeway last night with the Buy 8, Save $4 Promo!  I wanted to see how well I could do using ONLY printable coupons and I’m happy with the result!  Plus, I love when I can buy a hundred dollar+ load of groceries without separating transactions!  Subtotal was about $130, and after coupons (including 4 $2 catalinas from Ziploc) I only paid $23.71, a savings of 83%!  I also received 4 more $2 Catalinas for buying 8 ziplocs.
(Last week I bought 8 ziploc twist top containers for a craft activity at my church.  A group of girls made journal jars- good activity if you need a group craft on a tight budget!)

This promo runs at least through June 15th.  That means you still have plenty of time to print your coupons and head to the stores.  See all of the participating products here.  If you’d like to recreate my transaction, here’s how to do it:
