Stop & Shop and General Mills Back-to-School Promotion

UPDATE:  This contest is now closed.  The winner was selected using random.org and is commenter #1 - Sara @ Domestically Challenged.  Congratulations Sara!  I'll be contacting you by email.
General Mills and Stop & Shop are teaming up for a great Back to School promotion, where you can stock up and save on both groceries and gas! This Back-to-School Saving Event is taking place at Stop & Shop stores September 4-10. Our family travels a lot (yeah, really, A LOT!), and when we are in New England, we pick up our groceries from Stop & Shop.
During the Back-to-School event, Stop & Shop is offering great sale pricing on the participating General Mills brands:
Cheerios, Lucky Charms, Reeses Puffs, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Cookie Crisp Sprinkles, Cookie Crisp, Fruit Snacks, Old El Paso Dinner Kits, Pillsbury Strudel, Pillsbury Scrambles, Green Giant Boxed Vegetables, Yoplait Yo-Plus Multi-Pack, Fiber One Yogurt Multi-Pack, Pillsbury Refrigerated Cookies, Pillsbury Crescent Rolls, Pillsbury Sweet Rolls and Yoplait Delights
Cheerios are a huge hit at my house. I can't keep enough of them for my daughter, who refers to them as "doughnut seeds". Anyway, this week, they are on sale...two (8.9 ounce) boxes for $5.
There are also additional savings for you or your school, depending on which Stop & Shop location you visit.
For example, if your Stop & Shop store sells gas and you buy four (4) participating General Mills items, you’ll automatically earn 100 points on your Stop & Shop card. Then, for every 100 points earned, you'll save 10¢ per gallon of gas (Please note: Total discount cannot exceed price per gallon). All you have to do is swipe your Stop & Shop Card at the pump to redeem your Gas Rewards
Now, if your Stop & Shop store doesn’t sell gas, don’t worry – you’re not left out of the savings – if you buy five (5) participating General Mills products, you will receive 20 Bonus Box Tops for your school! How great is that?!?!?
You know what would make this even sweeter? How about a gift card to Stop & Shop? That's right, the folks at MyBlog Spark and General Mills have given me a $10 gift card so I could enjoy this promotion. (That will be four boxes of Cheerios for me.) In addition, they will provide one of you with your very own $10 gift card to Stop & Shop!
Here is how you can enter:

  • Visit the Stop & Shop website and look through the current circular.

  • Leave me a comment and tell me how much money you think you could save shopping at Stop & Shop.

  • Be sure to leave me your contact information, or make sure I can easily find it in your profile.
You can earn extra entries by:

  • Following my blog. Be sure to leave me a separate comment.

  • Tweet about this giveaway and leave a comment with the link.

  • Post on your own blog about this promotion and link back to me. Again, please leave me a separate comment.
This giveaway is open to residents of the United States only. I will accept comments/entries through 11:59 pm (EDT), Thursday, September 10, 2009. The winner of the gift certificate will be randomly drawn from all qualified entries and announced/notified Friday, September 11. The winner will have 48 hours to send me full contact information. After 48 hours, I will select an alternate winner.
*Disclaimer - MyBlogSpark and General Mills provided me with my own $10 gift certificate for blogging about this promotion, and will provide the winner with a $10 gift certificate. The opinions expressed, however, are entirely my own. I am a regular shopper at Stop & Shop, and do participate in their My Stop & Shop program.
