I did ok with this shopping trip, but I spent more than I usually do. I didn’t go shopping the week before though so this is really 2 weeks worth.
I ended up getting about $225 worth of groceries, but I only spend $89 + tax!
That’s $138 worth of savings!
I was totally out of cereal so with the 50% off sale combined with my coupons I bought 10 boxes. With a family our size it won’t last too long though.
I also have a 4 yr old allergic to milk so I stocked up on the Silk while it was on sale. I also got rice, oatmeal, Milk, lots of sandwich meat, yogurt, cheese, Chicken Nuggets & a few other things.
I really messed up on the Oreos. I got 2 packs & had a coupon for a free pack when you buy 1 pack & a gallon of milk. I didn’t realize it until I was checking out that it had expired! They were already in the bottom of the buggy & my twins were ready to go so I paid $8.00 for 2 packs of Oreos!! UGH!!!
However, My kids & hubby were not as disappointed as I was. In fact, I think they were thrilled about it!
Looks like you did great. I bought Oreo cakesters and forgot to give the coupon. 🙁 it happens. I’ve got about 20 boxes of cereal right now. It was on sale @ my Tom Thumb for $1 and $2 each when you buy 5 (before the coupons) most of the prices after coupons were $1 or less. I think I paid .80 cents for corn pops and .49 cents for Kasha cereal.
Thanks JAmieanne! That reminds me, I had the coupon for free cakesters too with oreos but forgot to pick up the Cakesters:)
That’s my biggest issue. Forgetting the coupon I wanted to use. I did that last week with Borden milk. It was on sale at Sack n save for. $2.49 and I had $1 off coupons. I forgot them and had to go back home to get them.
WOW!! Great trip Holly!
