I mentioned this deal in my weekly top deals post. It is the deal that is definitely getting me to the store this week. I have been cleaning out my freezer for the last 2 weeks (read we have been eating previously frozen meats or meals and lots of frozen veggies) to have room for the purchase $100 worth of frozen food and earn a $25 off your next order coupon. I was super excited when I read about this deal last week in several coupon forums and crossed my fingers that Richmond would also get the promotion. I have read on-line (in coupon forums) that this deal does work toward the spend $100 deal. If you have not accumulated any frozen food points this is the week to do so and you can save BIG – even without coupons!

Hi, Ann!
Thanks again for all of the awesome matchups!
I've read some of the Giant PA blogs (which are nearly identical to Martin's sales) that there will be another "double dip" opportunity week next with a different selection of items for the $10/$25 and still collect towards your overall $25 catalina!
It also looks as though the points may keep rolling so you may not be limited to only one $25 catalina. (You keep earning points on additional frozen foods after the cat prints.)
I may need to buy another freezer if they keep this up, lol.
I started on this deal last night and got an extra .50 oyno cat for every 4 Dole frozen fruits I bought!
Where are your freezer points displayed? On the bottom of the receipt? I've shopped several times this month and I just wonder if anything previously purchased will count towards this deal.
Also, will the $25 off just print at the register, or is it something the cashier will give you?
Thanks!
I think I was off a little in my previous post~ you get a .50 OYNO cat when you buy 3 Dole frozen fruits, not 4. I bought 12 last night and got 3, so I assumed that it was 1/4~ but I saw a sign today at a different Martins that actually advertised the cat as 1/3. There must be a limit, though, since I only got 3/12.
Thanks for the tip Their Mommy! I just saw a thread about it on Hot Coupon World. It looks like the deal is buy save $5 instantly wyb 6 participating items. The least expensive item listed are Hanover frozen veggies at $1.67 a bag, the most expensive are Bertolli Complete Dinner for Two and Marie callendar's Fruit Pie at $5.99. Here is a link to the post.

Thanks for the tip Lissa! It is almost like they are paying us to take groceries home! :)
Anonymous - yes it shows your freezer points at the bottom of your receipt. It actually shows how many you earned and your new balance. You can also check them on-line by logging into your personal page from the MARTIN'S website, click on "Rewards & Current Promotions" that will take you to a page that displays your Frozen Club points and your fuelperks! (if you are in Richmond I don't know what they call them outside of Richmond).
I haven't earned my $25 coupon yet, so I am not exactly sure how or when it prints. I have read that some people said to tell the cashier if you are close to your 100 points because they have to scan a card. I thought it sounded like a Catalina that would automatically print. If your receipt shows that you just hit 100 points and you didn't get your $25 Catalina I would go to the Service Center and show them your receipt BEFORE you leave the store and have them correct it for you with either a voucher or a giftcard.
Has anyone hit the 100 points and received the $25 Catalina? Did you have any problems?
I reached my $100 total today, and the cash register beeped to alert the cashier that she had to scan a card so the register would print my coupon. We didn't know this at the time, so mine didn't print, but that's what the manager told me later. She said the register would beep again next time I was in and I could just print it then. She also confirmed that you can earn more than one $25 bonus. This was at the John Rolfe store.
Thanks for the info Lissa. It is also good to know that if you have the freezer space that you can do a second spend $100 in frozen foods get $25 off your next purchase. I don't think I have room unless I find a great deal on another deep freeze - or take it to an alternate location. :)
Hi Ann! Me again!
I went to my WV Martin's last night and there is an unadvertised deal - Buy ANY Mrs.Paul's Frozen Fish and get a FREE Bird's Eye Steamfresh Vegetable. I had a(Feb-All You) Coupon for the same deal, so I was able to get 2 free veggies with the Mrs Paul's item. There is a window clingie on the door of the Mrs Paul's section. I believe this deal will go through mid April.
I paid $4.15 for a small box of fish sticks and two bags of steamfresh veggies!
Thanks again for a great tip Their Mommy! There is actually another side to that deal - I saw it advertised in one store, but not in another after praznow shared it on my post last week. If you buy 3 Mrs. Paul's items you get a catalina for a free Mrs. Paul's items. So you get 3 Mrs. Paul's and 3 birdseye vegetables (I think up to 16oz) plus a catalina for a free Mrs. Paul's. Have you started looking for that second freezer yet? :)
