Watermelons will keep about 2 weeks if you keep them in a cool place. We always have lots watermelon in the fall from our garden and we just put them in the basement. We’ve kept them up to a month but after a couple of weeks they start to get grainy.

As far as picking an under ripe watermelon-watermelon don’t continue to ripen after they have been picked. Look for one with a creamy to yellow bottom (which shows it was left on the vine lone enough to ripen) that has a hollow sound when you thump it. The heavier the watermelon for it’s size the higher the water content.

Since the watermelon has a firm outer rind there is no need to keep turning to avoid a soft spot.

Love some of the deals in the new cub booklet mailed out to us. If you printed the bryers ice cream coupons they have a bogo for bryers. Also tuna and I have a coupon that expired a couple of days ago that will make it an even better deal. It is 99 cents a pouch and coupon is $1/2 so it brings it to .50 ea. Be sure to watch your mail box and check out the coupons.

No they won’t accept them, they are Target coupons. Cub would accept them if they were mfg coupons.

Thanks Bernice – Since I know you have a sense of humor, I’ll say that I had a momentary flashback to calculus class or something as I read your post. First this, then that. “Pay attention, Carrie, listen up, you CAN follow this.” :) Thanks for taking time to detail it out in a very easy-to-follow way. I appreciate it A LOT!

one more that works..
5 dressing and 1 mayo/ miracle whip.

There is a double dip running on the Miracle whip/ mayo and salad dressing.

hmm, guess i already posted that?? LOL.
I did it today and works great!

But do make sure to separate the catalina offers or you will sadly not get them all. My sis figured that out the hard way today when she was shorted one $4 cat by mixing 5 wheat thins and the 4 salad dressing/ 2 Mayo.

Buy 6 dressing@ $1.69 (after the $3 instant), use peelies on products 35/1. Pay $8.04
Get $4 from the Kraft catalina
Get $3 from the dressing catalina
Total oop = $1.04
Possible less if you have higher value coupons

OR
Buy 2 Miracle Whip / Mayo, use $1/2 peelies (or two 50/1 peelies)
Buy 4 dressing, use 35/1 peelies
Total after ($3 instantly) $10.74 – coupons = $8.34
Get $4 Kraft cat
Get $3 dressing cat
Total oop after cat = $1.34
Lots of tear pads and other coupons for $1/2 or 55/1 dressing would knock the price down further.

The key is 4 of the **salad dressing to get $3
Total of at least 5 of the Kraft cat items (which includes cheese, hot dogs, bologna/salami, crackers, crystal light, capri sun, * Mayo/ Miracle Whip, **salad dressing) to get $4,
6 featured items total to qualify for the $3 off instantly (bbq sauce, *mayo/miracle whip, **salad dressing, chips ahoy)

Thus these scenarios work to generate the $3 and $4 cats:
4 dressing, 2 mayo
6 dressing
5 dressing and 1 bbq sauce
5 dressing and 1 chips ahoy

Take note the BBQ sauce and Chips Ahoy will NOT generate any catalina coupons, they are NOT included in the buy 5 get $4 Kraft catalina promo.

Happy shopping!
