These "bonus" savings deals are typi- cally found at larger-chain super- markets versus smaller grocers or "everyday-low-price" supercenters. Single-product promotions If your grocery store participates in Catalina coupon promotions, you’ve probably seen that compa- ny’s coupon machine at the register. The coupons it delivers vary by cus- tomer, with savings amounts trig- gered not only by a shopper’s past purchase history at the store, but also by items they are purchasing that day. Each month, a variety of manu- facturers offer promotions that gen- erate Catalina coupons good for money off your next shopping trip. These promotions may be adver- tised in your store’s weekly flyer, but more often you’ll find informa- tion about them in the store itself. Look for shelf tags advertising offers like "Buy 2 and receive a $2 checkout coupon for your next shopping order." These offers are also often advertised on Catalinas that print at the register a few weeks before the sale begins. You may also find them listed on Catali- na’s www.couponnetwork.com website under the "Buy & Save Offers" link. The coupons you receive via Catalina promotions function just like cash. A $2 Catalina is just like a $2 bill! You can increase your savings by using coupons to buy the featured items and then receive even more "cash back" at the regis- ter for doing so. Police reports The following informa- tion is compiled from Red Bluff Police Department, Tehama County Sheriff’s Department, Corning Police Department and California Highway Patrol. Arrests • Marie Guadalupe Barragan-Alonso, 44, of Los Molinos was arrested Wednesday in the 25000 block of Third Avenue in Los Molinos. She was charged with perjury and using false documents to conceal true citizenship. Bail was set at $20,000. • Samantha Marie Hughes, 23, of Corning was arrested Wednesday in the 1400 block of Sixth Avenue in Corning. She was charged with posses- sion of a controlled sub- stance without a prescrip- tion, cruelty to a child with the possibility of injury/death and posses- sion of a controlled sub- stance. Bail was set at $2,500. Thefts • A pole saw and a gas can, valued at $600, were reported stolen Wednes- day from near a wood pile on a property in the 7600 block of Woodland Avenue in Gerber. The incident occurred some- time within the past week. • A checkbook was stolen from a green 2000 Toyota truck at Red Bluff Mini Storage, at 395 Kim- ball Road, between 10:15 and 10:30 a.m. Wednes- day. The loss was valued at $25. • A woman’s $10-wal- let containing $800 cash was stolen from an unlocked vehicle while she was getting fuel at AM/PM on South Main Street. Odd • A hit-and-run was reported about 10:23 a.m. Wednesday to a light pole in the parking lot of Sacred Heart Catholic Church. Later in the day, BOOK BARN Used Books Tues-Fri 10-5 Sat 10-2 Serving Tehama County since 1994 619 Oak St., Red Bluff (530) 528-2665 Minimum-purchase promo- tions Another kind of Catalina promotion that your store offers may feature a group or selection of prod- ucts. Shoppers receive a Catalina at the register when they purchase a min- imum quantity or dollar amount of selected items. These offers may state, "Spend $30 on participat- ing products and receive $10 off your next shopping trip," or "Purchase any ten participating products" to generate a Catalina. These sales can be a lot of fun, since you can often use coupons on your items to bring your out-of-pocket total down at the register even more. If your store is running a multi- ple-item Catalina promotion such as this, it will usually be advertised in the store’s flyer. Look for tags in the store, too, to help identify which products are included. Instant-savings promotions Instant-savings sales may be advertised as "Buy any 10 partici- pating products and receive $5 instant savings at the register" or "Buy 10 items, get the 11th free!" Again, with a sale like this, use coupons to first reduce the sale price even more, and then enjoy the additional savings in the checkout lane. Can more than one of these pro- motions be running at the same time on the same products? Absolutely! When a product is involved in more than one savings promotion at the same time buying that one item triggers both sets of at 3:25 p.m., a woman reported to the Red Bluff Police Department that she was the one responsi- ble. • A woman who recent- ly moved into a residence in the 1000 block of Mon- roe Street reported Wednesday that a “tran- sient-looking” man came to her door and told her that he had a bagful of recyclables in her shed. He reportedly demanded that she allow him inside to retrieve them and was acting aggressively when she told him “no.” The man was described as a white male adult in his mid-40s. Officers were unable to locate the sus- pect. • A man reportedly in bloody clothing said that he had been robbed near Big 5 Sporting Goods, 545 South Main St., at 7:21 p.m. Wednesday. After emergency medical personnel and police offi- cers arrived, they deter- mined that Christopher Vernon Davis, 26, of Paynes Creek appeared to be under the influence. When witnesses reported that they had seen Davis driving a 1991 GMC truck, he was arrested for DUI and public intoxica- tion. At the scene, Davis told officers that two men had just stolen his truck from Wal-Mart and he had chased after the suspects. Davis told officers the sus- pects abandoned the vehi- cle underneath the train trestle on South Main Street, and he then pushed the vehicle to Big 5 Sport- ing Goods. Officers made a report regarding the vehicle theft and robbery, had the truck towed and transported two dogs to the local animal shelter. • Police officers responded at about 1 p.m. Wednesday to the Caber- net Apartments for a domestic dispute when it was reported that a man had been hit with a golf club by his girlfriend. No savings. Want an example? One of my stores had a great double-dip offer on fruit snacks. They were involved in a "Spend $20, get $7" Catalina at the store, but the snacks themselves also had a second, prod- uct-specific Catalina tied to them. Buying five or more boxes of fruit snacks triggered another $3.50 Catalina. Jill Cataldo Coupon Queen The fruit snacks were on sale for $1.99. Buying 11 boxes cost $21.89. After five coupons good for $1 off purchase of two, the total at the regis- ter was $16.89. After pay- ing, I received a $7 Catalina and a $3.50 Catalina back, effectively reducing the price for 11 boxes to $6.39, or about 58 cents a box! These "bonus" savings promo- tions turn good prices into great deals. Consider that with just my $1 coupons for purchase of two, the fruit snacks would have cost about $1.54 a box. The additional Catali- na promotions helped me shave off an additional 96 cents per box. Shoppers must pay close atten- tion to the terms of these promo- tional offers, since the sale may be restricted to specific sizes, varieties or flavors.

Anderson was cited for possessing more than one ounce of marijuana and released. Crashes •A 17-year-old Cot- tonwood boy was taken to Mercy Medical Center in Redding for moderate injuries following a motorcycle crash at 9:28 a.m. Wednesday. The boy was going west on a 1982 Suzuki RM465 on Cypress Drive, which is a private dirt road, at about 80 mph, approaching Bywood Dr. Due to the high rate of speed, the boy experi- enced a high speed wob- ble and lost control of his vehicle, sliding on his side for about 100 feet. No alcohol is believed to have been involved and he was wearing a helmet. • Three Red Bluff peo- ple were injured in a weather-related rollover crash at 1:50 p.m. Wednesday on Highway 36E, west of Supan Gulch. Thomas Miller, 37, was taken to St. Elizabeth Community Hospital for minor injuries. His pas- sengers, Alana Miller, 45, and Thomas Stevens, 48, were taken to St. Eliza- beth’s for minor to moder- ate injuries. Miller was driving west on 36E when a heavy hail storm caused his vehicle to lose traction as it entered a right hand curve. The vehicle, which received major damage, slid off road and down embankment, where it rolled over. Fire •A flue fire reported at 6 p.m. Wednesday in the 19500 block of Draper Road, off of Bowman Road, in the Cottonwood area did $7,000 structural damage to a residence. There was no loss of con- tents and there was a $300,000 save. The fire was contained at 8:20 p.m. The last unit cleared at 10:14 p.m. Arrest •A 34-year-old Corn- ing man was arrested Thursday morning at the Corning Police Depart- ment. Corning Police had received reports that James Franklin Moore had been physically abusing a 10-year-old boy. Moore was arrested following an investiga- tion at the Corning Police Department and booked into Tehama County Jail on the charge of corporal injury to a child. Bail was set at $25,000. According to a Corning Police press release the boy had scratches and bruises. starting class Seed Sat., Feb. 26th @ 10am COMPLETE AUTO REPAIR All makes and models.
