Where can we find the tearpads?
Renae @ Madame Deals
Allison,
I saw them in the dairy section at my Kroger. Even without the coupons it is still a great deal!
WR
Don’t you have to buy 10 with the Mega Sale
Renae @ Madame Deals
WR,
Yes you have to buy (10) items with the Mega Event. But for the Kraft catalina you only need to buy 5. They are two different promotions. So buy 5 Kraft cheese plus 5 other participating items to make for the best deal.
WR
Thank you kindly!
Have an idea of what the best deal would be with the other 5 items?
Just curious.
Amy
Just something that I did, I bought the 49 cent quaker quakes, because they are to die for! Plus, they have breyer’s ice cream on a terrific sale again with the buy 10 items sale…less than 2 bucks is a steal for that, as Foodland charges almost $5 for it.
Renae @ Madame Deals
WR,
There are many options with several items at $0.49 after the discount. Gatorade and the Quaker Quakes that Amy mentioned are a good option. Look over the list of Mega Event items and see what your family needs. Good luck!
Deb
I’ve been getting a bunch of the Boulders organic chips FREE with the Mega deal-you can also get the FREE sponges.
Tombstone pizzas are about 50 cents—this all depends on you using Q’s of course :)
Lacey
It doesn’t show the Kraft Singles as part of the mega event in my Kroger ad. It shows shredded cheese or bar cheese…Is it working for the singles too?
Renae @ Madame Deals
Hi Lacy,
The mid-Atlantic ad shows the singles are included. There will be signs in the store!
Jennifer
I did this deal yesterday and bought 2 shredded cheese and 3 cream cheese and i did not recieve a catalina is there anything i can do now to get it?
Tara Kuczykowski
Jennifer, I’d recommend that you return the items and wait to purchase until the promotion starts on the 19th. This was posted as a heads up so that people can start hunting down the tearpad coupons.
Crystal
It’s not really fair (or ethical IMHO) to return the cheese since they will have to throw it away and lose money on it (it’s perishable and they have no way of knowing if you stored it correctly). Just get more for free and freeze it :)
Tara Kuczykowski
She could return it and rebuy it immediately though.
Kerry
Hi, does anyone know whether you can do this twice and get 2 OYNO catalinas?
Renae @ Madame Deals
Kerry,
You will only get one catalina per transaction. If you want two you will have to do two transactions.
JoAnn Walthour
What are tearpad coupons?
Renae @ Madame Deals
JoAnn,
Tearpad coupons are found in the store next to the products. It is a little pad of coupons and you just tear one off!

I have to say that I’m very disappointed in this deal. I shopped at two different Krogers – purchased the cheese at both and did not receive the deal at either one of them. Is this offer in all regions? Has anyone else experienced this in Georgia?
Renae @ Madame Deals
Hi Karen,
The catalina company number is 1-888-8coupon. I have been successful at getting a credit from them when the catalina did not print. Sometimes the cashier forgets to hand it to you. The Kraft catalina is widespread and is being offered at other chain stores such as Harris Teeter too.
Lori
Sometimes I have trouble receiving current catalinas at Kroger. It seems to me that there was once a post on your blog for a phone number to call if a catalina doesn’t print. Do you remember, Kara?
For example: I purchased 4 GM cereals & was supposed to get $5 off my next order, but it didn’t print. I did the deal separately from my other grocery order.
Thanks!
Lori
I’m sorry, Tara, I put a K on your name instead of T…….crazy day. But, I’m very curious to find this out. This catalina thing has been happening at my local Kroger for months. Usually, I don’t notice it til I get home. This past time, the customer service ctr was closed because I was shopping late at night.

Thanks for the info about not being able to get 2 coupons! I went to kroger last night and didn’t know this. It was late at night so customer service was closed. I am going back today to return and buy back 5 of the products and see if that works! If not I guess I need to call the catalina company. I am wondering if it will work for a couple of items I bought though, on the sign at my kroger it listed the sour cream, velveeta, and kraft singles, but I noticed by each of the price tags it wasn’t listed. We will see. This was a kroger in marietta, ga. I saw above someone had trouble in atlanta. Will let you know.
Lucy
I went to kroger last night and bought 6 Philly Cream and 1 Kraft Singles and I did not get a catalina to print out : – ( .I used the self check out and the Cat machine did not have any lights on… customer service was closed and the cashier running self check out was flustered with lines of people, I just started using coupons and I am sort of iffy about calling the catalina company.
