Shop 'n Save
The deals were fantastic this week. I shopped on Thursday, so not only did I take advantage of the $10 off $50 Thursday, but used a $5 off $50 coupon from the Entertainment book, and a $5 Catalina from last week's Kraft deal. I had coupons for free 20 oz. Cokes from My Coke Rewards and coupons for free Hormel Bacon bits wyb bagged salad. The best part is I received a $10 Catalina coupon for my Keebler purchase. I got paid to shop!Before sales & coupons: $69.16
Spent: $4.47
Saved: $64.49 for a 94% savings

For those who don't read my blog on a regular basis, my splurge funds are the difference between what I've actually spent and my $50 budget. I use it for those items I never find on sale or that I don't have coupons for.
You Go Girl!!!!!

awesome, looks like a good week!
ReplyDeleteI haven't checked in a while Jeri but your splurge fun is really creeping up there. When are you going to get that freezer?
ReplyDeleteI wish I had bought more of the cinnabon cereal. I bought 1 box to see if my kids liked it first and they ate the whole box in 1 day. I guess i should have monitored that a little better!
ReplyDeleteAnother $1 coupon in this week's Parade magazine so hopefully thye go on sale again this week!
Thanks, ArmyMom
ReplyDeleteHi Lynda - I'm going to get the freeze this weekend. If we can find the time.
Hi Marcella - Cinnabons have been snarfed down at my house too. Thank goodness school starts next week. My teen has been a non-stop eating machine. I hope this growth spurt is up and not out.
I finally got to the grocery today, my first trip in over a week, and I only got a few things. I forgot to use my $5 catalina at Dierbergs but I did get free cat litter and 2 free Sobes teas. The grocery ads havent had much to attract me the past few weeks :(
ReplyDeleteHi CJ - I hate that when I miss using a Cat or RR. It can happen to me when the deals aren't great and I get out of the habit of shopping at a store every week.
