I think today was one of my best shopping trips in a while. I shopped at Sunflower Market, Rite Aid, King Soopers, and Safeway. Believe it or not…
Total Spent on this week’s groceries: $3.22!!!
Now that is a great start to the month, and it certainly added a lot to my stockpile! Make sure to check out all the great deals this week under the Stores Section on the right!
This week’s dinner menu consists of:
Hot Taco Dip
Steak, Potatoes, and Corn
Chicken Tetrazzini (I never ended up making this last week)
Meatloaf (same as above)
Spaghetti
Update:
Alright, so I’ll take a moment to give you some more details on how I did it.
I do not have my receipts in front of me at the moment so, forgive me I’m going from memory.
I actually shopped at Safeway, and not Walgreens…that was a typo.
King Soopers: All of the items that I purchased at King Soopers are detailed in the King Soopers post HERE. I did the Buy 10 Save $5 promotion 4 times in this transaction. I also had a $2.50 pharmacy credit and I brought my own bags, those both helped to lower my total to just over $8.
Safeway: I actually made money at Safeway and purchased a gas card to cover the overage (this is YMMV, my store doesn’t have any issues with it, but some stores will ask you to purchase more items to cover overage). The money that I made paid for my King Soopers items and also paid for some of my Rite Aid items. I made money through my eCoupons (which I had several of), by using the Free item deals that were in yesterday’s paper to get my pre-coupon total up to $50, using a $10 off $50 purchase which they sent to me in the mail, and I had a $2.50 Catalina. I essentially made around $11.50 on my Safeway shopping. Everything else that I purchased is included in the Safeway post HERE.
Rite Aid: I made .50 on the two boxes Post cereal, by combining the $1.75 sale with $2 coupons. I also purchased shaving cream which will be .99 after SCR, sale, and coupon; and I bought the 4 Oral B toothbrushes for a total of $5 after SCRs and coupons. (These items will also help me to get my total up to $100 for the Go for the Gold Promo, but I didn’t include that in my calculations-if I did though I would have made.) Check out this week’s Rite Aid Deals HERE.
Sunflower: The only two items I got at Sunflower were tomatoes and an organic popsicle thing that my husband likes. I also brought my own bag which saved me .10. My total there was around $1.50. I so wish that it were possible to freeze tomatoes…that is just a awesome deal. Check out my Sunflower post HERE.
So there you have it in a nutshell, that is how I did it! I hope that these See Me Shop Sunday posts help to inspire all of you! I know when I first started couponing, I just didn’t believe that it was possible to save so much…now I know it is, because I do it every week…and I hope these posts help you to see it too!
