Yesterday I went to Kroger to grab some milk really quick because we were out and I always look around the store to check out any deals that they may have not posted in their ads (always happens). And at my Kroger I noticed they had PediaSures on Manager's Special (clearance) for $5.39. So I went home to scour the net for a coupon that wasn't a sidekick one. I also dropped by IHeartKroger.com and found a deal for some protein bars.

So here's what I bought:



2 PediaSure marked down to $5.39 from $10.79 used ! $1.50 off ANY and 1 $1.50 off PediaSure 6-pack
2 dozen Medium eggs 10/$10 - Thought I had used my $0.55/2 dozen last week, comes to find out it was hiding from me! AGH! I hate when that happens...
2 Beech-Nut mini steamie meals - 2 $1 off coupons
2 Luna Protein Bars $0.97 - 2 $0.50 off coupons doubled up = FREE
2 Kraft shredded cheese on sale

Total OOP: $18.25
Saved: $22.12

Of course when I got home I found the $3 off ANY PediaSure product in my email. But it's okay it was still a good deal. My receipt said I saved 39% but they don't included Manager's Special as a sale. So in reality I saved 55%, would have been 63% if I had those other coupons but C'est la vie.

ALSO! I got coupons that printed at the register! That is always exciting!

That's all for today and hopefully until after Thanksgiving. :D

Publix's trip today consisted of things we need to get through Thanksgiving. We don't have it at our house but we do bring stuff. We attend one for my husband's dad's side this Saturday and then just our family at his parent's house on Thanksgiving day. LO's outfit won't be ready by this Saturday but that's another story...any ways here's what I got:

4 Sundown Folic Acid Vitamins $3.79 - 2 $6/2 store coupon and 4 $1/1 off manu (I can either use these for when/if I get pregnant again or can donate them but I'm not turning down an overage! :] )
8 Uncle Ben's rice BOGO $1.99 - 4 $0.75/2
2 Presidente Specialty cheese spreads BOGO $4.59 - 2 $2.50/1 (these are for LO's party and I'm very excited because I thought I would have to drive all the way to Target and pay $0.99 but I got them for free!)
4 Mueller's elbow macaroni BOGO $1.53 (we need these for the macaroni and cheese we are suppose to bring) - 2 $0.55/1(I would have print off more but hubby didn't tell me until after the fact that he needed some too :/ )
2 Pam cooking Spray BOGO $3.19 - (no coupon, just good price and we needed)
2 Breakstone sour creams BOGO $2.25 (freezing to use to cook for when I make enchiladas, YUM!)



This was my first trip I scanned in at the National Consumer Panel. So we'll see if I get any good surveys! :)

So I haven't posted this here but I thought I would because I posted it on cafemom and mom365's couponing groups and it seems to be very popular. I guess because I paid less than the box of diapers and got more than a box of diapers. :)

October 20, 2011:



for OOP $21.11!!!!

Here's how I did it:

Publix -

Skippy Peanut Butter $1.99 - I had 4 $1 store coupons (I stocked up because the price of peanut butter is going up and we eat it ALL the time)

Honey Nut Cheerio $1.99 - I had one $1 off 2 and one $0.75 off one (we eat this ALL the time too)

Pampers Diapers $29.99 (terrible price) - I had a $10 off coupon P&G sent me when I had issues with some diapers and their tabs ripping off, plus a $5 off store coupon

Pampers wipes $6.71 - FREE WYB Pampers Cruisers in store ad coupon

Covergirl Blushes $3.56 - I had 4 $8/2 Covergirl Face products

DiGorno Cheese BOGO at $4.79 - 2 $2 off any DiGorno product from their facebook plus $1 off competitior coupon



Walgreens -

Cotonelle is on sale for $5 they have an $1 off in their new October booklet. I had bought two packs the day before and received a $3 off catalina (I had a $0.75 off and $3 off any Kimberly-Clark product that day). I used the store, catalina, and another $0.75 off coupon so I only paid $0.60 for one. :D

I'm so excited because I can use everything I purchased from P&G to get a $40 valued Bake ware set with a mail-in rebate (that's why I bought the blushes)! :D
