$20 Under Budget!!

I'm so happy to be under budget this week. Especially considering that I had to buy my special shampoo & conditioner because I'm allergic to almost everything - they were $14 - yikes! There were some great items at Target that were free or cheap including mascara, Johnson's body wash, Glade candles & refills, Tide & Chef Michael dog food. I saved $132.90 & paid $2.32 + tax (sorry I didn't get a pic)

Safeway had a great cereal promo. I also got alot of free or cheap items including Barilla pasta, Squirt, Wishbone Dressing, Arm & Hammer toothpaste. I was down to my last 3 boxes of cereal so this worked great to replenish my stockpile. Paid $23.97 and saved over $139 that's 87% - however I will send in my receipt & get a $10 Kellogg's rebate so that's a bonus!







City Market is still having their mega sale but I used my best coupons last week. Still I was thrilled to find No Name Steaks clearanced for $3.99 with $1 peelies on them. Got 6 free Wholly Salsas & Free Yakisoba noodles, Mentos gum & Reeses (very evil). And when I checked out the cashieer was so excited about how much I saved he insisted on high-fiving me. I didn't have the heart to tell him I saved more at Safeway :) Paid $31.28 and saved almost $89 which was 75%

THANK YOU, DOUBLE COUPONS!!!!

Oh, I want to shout it from the rooftops! I LOVE this City Market/Kroger promo. The coupons for Propel & Sobe ended up making me $15 to use toward the rest of my items. I paid about $25 for all this and saved a total of $181. I splurged on the Hummus - paid $4 for it, but you got to have Hummus with Stacy's Pita Chips, yummy!

Rite Aid Clearance

There were gold nugget Snickers clearanced for $.25 at Rite Aid. Using the $1/2 coupon from a couple weeks ago made for a nice moneymaker to help bring down my total on the Freebate items.

Target Deals!!

Right now you can get an overage on some Hasbro games at Target. Cadoo was clearanced for $3.75 use this $5 coupon for a nice overage. The best part is that I used about 10 of these coupons today and not a single one beeped. I paid $24 for these items & that's including an ink cartridge for $29 (I've got to find some cheaper ink).

City Market Doubles!!

Looks like I can't complain any longer. Both my local stores (Safeway & City Market) now double coupons! I am so excited! I can't wait to get all the awesome deals that everyone else brags about.
