First I shopped at Target:
I was able to get:
- 1 dozen free eggs
- Four boxes of Wheat Thins/Triscuits each for $0.99 (Didn't end up being that great. For some reason, I was thinking I got them for $0.50 each)
- Two free Kraft string cheese
- 5 six-packs of Musselman's Applesauce for $0.75 each
- 2 lbs red grapes for $0.98
- 1 lb. beef chuck for $1.50
- 2 boxes Healthy Harvest pasta for $0.22 each
- Dole salad for $0.50
I also got Gala apples, but they weren't that great of a deal. However...I'm now relooking at my receipt and I think some of the things I bought weren't discounted like they should have been, darnit! Remember to always watch the register!
But then there was the awesome-ness that happened at Jewel-Osco tonight! So excited!!
Con-Agra (Go Omaha!) is running a deal where if you buy $25 worth of their product, you get $10 back.
So...I got:
- 5 bottles of Wessel vegetable oil for $2.50 ($0.50 per bottle!)
- 14 boxes of Orville Redenbacher popcorn for $4.64 ($0.25/box!)
- 14 Snack Pack puddings for $2.32 ($0.17/pack!)
...and will hopefully go back for some Healthy Choice soup (my store has been out of it since Saturday), along with flour, peanut butter, spaghetti sauce, cake mixes, paper towels, hot chocolate and more! Let's see, there's Jewel by my work, a Jewel by my house, a Jewel on the way to Bible study. I've got a few more places to try!
Obviously we don't need that much oil or popcorn or pudding right now, but for that cheap! I'm sure we'll eat it and if not, we can donate it to the food pantry. I also meant to get free Idahoan potatoes - well, I did buy them, but in the midst of my excitement, I forgot to scan the coupons I had for them! Shoot! Never can I get through a shopping trip without making at least one mistake.
Oh well, even with the mistakes, I'm still excited. However...I didn't pay with cash like I've been meaning to - maybe because I've already gone over my budget for these two weeks. Whoops! Sometimes it's just worth it for the thrill of the deal!
Love it!!
