UPDATE – Sorry guys. Looks like this Catalina deal is VERY regional, so keep that in mind before doing this deal. 🙁

WooHoo! Reader Zelma let me know that through 4/15, there is a Catalina promotion on Viva paper towels, making for a great deal at Walgreens this week! Check out the details for this Catalina promotion:

Buy 2 Viva 6-pack Towels = Get $4 RR
Buy 3+ Viva 6-pack Towels = Get $5 RR

Check out this great scenario you can do:

Viva paper towels 6 rolls $5.99
Buy 2 Viva 6-packs $5.99
Total = $11.98
Use the $0.50/2 coupon found here
Plus, use the $1/1 Walgreens coupon found in the March coupon booklet (will deduct $2)
Pay $9.48
Get back $4 RR
Final cost $2.74 each – just $0.46 per roll!

(Thanks so much, Zelma!)

Not a bad deal, I may take advantage of this! I have two coupons for 1$ off 2 or more Viva paper towels, so I’m getting two 6 packs so I can use both of them right?

I’m pretty sure only 1 coupon would work for that transaction. $1/2 and you are buying 2 pkgs. In order to use both coupons you would need to buy 4 pkgs.

There is an in-store coupon (from the March savings booklet) for $1 off each package. This is in addition to the manufacturer’s coupon.

Did it today and the 2 coupons I had said good for $.50 off 2 or more, or 1-big 2pack, so both coupons worked.

I did this deal this morning not knowing! only because I still had a $1 of 1 coupon that expires today. When I got the $4 rr. I was very surprised because that made it an even sweeter deal!

Where did you get the $1 coupon from? Thanks!

Thanks so MUCH for this. I am a paper towel snob (thanks to my wonderful Memaw) and I don’t like to use anything but Viva, which is funny considering how frugal I am.

Is this rolling? Anyone know?

It rolled for me once. When I did the transaction the 3rd time it didnt print the $4 RR

Amy March 25, 2012 at 3:43 pm MST

This is a good price! I have a coupon for 0.85 off one or more. When I can find single rolls at Giant Eagle I pay 0.29 a roll since they cost $1.99 and GE double coupons up to 0.99.
I did not see any single rolls for a long time, so I think I will do this deal at wags.

Has anyone done the deal on the Nice trash bags? I was curious if anyone was having problems using an in-ad coupon plus one from the coupon book

Lindsay March 25, 2012 at 4:50 pm MST

I had no trouble this morning, I got 3 with no problems or beepage. I actually really like their trash bags so I was happy about this deal!

Kathie March 25, 2012 at 5:50 pm MST

I didn’t get any RR’s with my purchase. Course I thought it was a good deal anyway. I bought 2 using the $1.00 coupon in the March booklet an then I had 2 coupons for $1.00 each an the coupons was expiring today. I thought 3.99 was good.

Diane March 25, 2012 at 6:02 pm MST

Was the $1 coupon an internet printable? Thanks!

Vanessa March 25, 2012 at 7:54 pm MST

does anyone know if the catalina is printing @ Target? Cos there is a $5 gc when u buy viva sc johnson cleaners, etc..

Katie March 25, 2012 at 8:01 pm MST

Can someone clarify the wording on this coupon? “$0.50 off two or more rolls of Viva Big Rolls or one Big Roll 2-pack” … can you use two coupons for two pacakges? This says to me, $0.50 off two or more rolls of Viva Big Rolls (which would be one package containing two or more rolls). Anyone?

Reply1

Rachel March 25, 2012 at 8:46 pm MST

I was able to use one coupon per package. Since it’s a 6-roll pack, it meets the requirements on the coupon. 🙂

Tricia March 25, 2012 at 8:04 pm MST

Here the 5.99 price is after the coupon in the wags book

I got it to work on Monday at a Columbus store (Kenny Rd). I just called the manager and he rang 2 and it printed the $4 cat. So if you are anywhere near that store… it should work.

Hailey- If you are anywhere near the Henderson/Kenny rd store, I was just on the phone with the manager, he rang through 2 and it printed the $4 cat for him. He said if you bring in the receipt he will help you out. Sorry, hope that helps!

For those not getting it to print, Try this if you want: call Catalina at 1-888-8COUPON or email them at [email protected] with the store name and address, date and time of purchase, what you bought, and transaction ID# from your receipt. Note that your transaction won’t be in their system until the next day.

Seems like it is very glitchy not even printing the same within one city. Odd….
