Staples: Charmin Deal...or not?

So, I was super happy to read that Staples has a $5 off your $25 purchase coupon in this week's ad!  It's on the front page.  I was even happier to read on Cuckoo for Coupon Deals that Staples also had the 16 roll packages of Charmin for $5.99!  But, then reality set in and I saw that our local ad does not have the 16 roll packs on sale, turn to the last page.  Total bummer! 

Instead, here in Hopkins County (also in Boston, Houston, and Studio City) you will find the 9-roll, red package for $5.99.  I'm just a little curious to know if there had been a misprint and the online ad has now been altered to show the smaller package?  Cuckoo is also reporting that you can use the $5 off Staples Q and the Charmin Qs from the 1/1 P&G for this deal.  I'm going to say, you might be able to get your cashier to accept both sets of coupons, but you're probably only going to be able to use one or the other.  Either way you look at it, you're going to pay about 53-cents to 55-cents per roll when you purchase 5 packages.  If your cashier says you can't use the manufacturer's coupon, you're still saving $1 per package just by using the Staples coupon with your $25 purchase! 

But, be cautioned, the Cuckoo "stock up price" for TP is 19-24 cents per roll and this sale does not go that low for us!
