Well, today was shopping day and I made quite a few stops throughout the day, but it was well worth it. I was able to "double dip" the sales this weekend as many of the stores had both this past week's and next week's sales active!


My first stop was at Kroger:
I was really glad to get the plastic bags! With coupons and the Mega Sale:
I spent OOP 8.99.
I saved 23.96
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Next stop Dollar Tree:
4 papers and some all natural chicken broth.
I spent OOP 6.00 (but I don't count the papers against my grocery budget)
I saved 5.00 ( Papers normally 1.75 and broth 2.00)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Third stop CVS:
I was able to get both the sale price of the large pack of batteries for $9.99 and get the $15 ECB on a $20 Duracell purchase. I did 4 transactions.
I started with a $25 gift card and ended with $15 in ECB's and paid $10.25 OOP, but I got a ton of batteries and I'm so thankful because we use a lot with the baby swing and I was out!
Spent OOP $10.25
Saved $103.85
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Next stop Walgreens.
Again I benefitted from the 2 sale ad being active! I bought this past week's cereal deal, and some other items and used the $2.oo RR + a $1 mc to get the skippy for free. ( The mayo was b1g1, but there was only 1 left so they sold it to me for 1/2 price- better yet!)
Spent $0 OOP
Spent $19.93 on Walgreens Gift Card
Will receive $16.50 back on monthly rebate
Saved $30
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Next to Target:
I bought 15 small packages of Archer Farms coffee (1.14 ea) and used 15 $1/1 coupons
Spent OOP $2.10
Saved $15.00
For some reason I can't get the photo of this to upload but when I took the coffee out of the package and put it into some Folger's plastic coffee cans that I had saved it filled 2 and I had 2 bags left!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FINALLY Meijer:
I bought 4 Kraft Dressings, found some peelies for $1.00 off produce with 2 Kraft dressings, used a coupon for $1 off 2 Kraft Dressings I found
here and then got a $4 off next order coupon from Kraft. I used that to get most of the canned tomatoes for free. I plan to go back next week for more dressings and produce. (Thanks
Crystal)

If you wonder how I did it? I left my husband and kids in the car happily listening to the Penn State vs. Indiana Football game! That way I could quickly run in and get the things I wanted!
