Couponing adventure

Sorry I don't have any pictures, because I don't have my camera this week, however I have to let the cyber world know all deals I got at Albertsons tonight.

I think my coupon skills are beginning to advance because I paid a total of $19.27 for $126.97 worth of groceries. That is an 87% discount.

In total I bought:
4 boxes of cheerios
6 boxes multi grain cheerios
3 boxes nature valley granola bars
3 boxes cinn toast crunch
1 box golden grams
9 packs of various pillsbury pop biscuits
4 tubes of cookie dough
4 two packs of pie crust
1 box brownie mix
1 box of betty crocker potatoes
3 bags of dry chocolate chip cookie mix
4 yoplait yogurts
and 2 3-packs of grape juice boxes

If you are new to couponing, you are probably wondering how I did this. Honestly I kind of am too. I usually go to the store several times on separate occasions and that helps me to organize all of it in my mind. However, tonight I decided to try to get it all done at once while I had my sister there and our husbands took the children for a little while. I must say it kind of boggled my mind a little bit.

I must say the feeling of all the groceries and seeing all the savings at once was quite rewarding, however I thinkin since I live right up the street from the abies, I still might opt for smaller trips and more of them, just so that my mind doesn't explode.

And yes, that is a lot of sweets. I guess it looks like lots of baked holiday deliveries!

Labor Day Couponing




Yikes! It has been a long time since I have posted a blog. I had to go to two Albertson's to find the Pillsbury biscuits that were on sale. Luckily, at the second one, even though it didn't look like there were any, there were. When I asked, they had some that had been shipped in, but hadn't been put on the shelf yet.
I got two boxes of multi-grain cheerios, two boxes of nature valley granola bars, 4 pop-biscuits and two bisquick boxes for.......$5.10 and i got a $5.00 catalina in return.
I also took a trip across the street to use my $7.00 in Wal bucks. I got a 3-wick soy candle, two crest toothpastes, and two jelly belly hi-lighters for fillers for $3.30 and I recieved $7.00 more in RR. Yay for clean teeth and fresh smelling air!
