Shopping Totals: 7/14/12 - 66% Savings (Way Over Due)

I'm sorry I was behind on this totals post. Life has been busy and chaotic lately and I will update more on that later. Anyways. I am still without a car so I am still relying on my husband for transportation. And like I have said before, shopping with him is a NIGHTMARE! LOL. He did do better this time than he has done in the past.

1 Donut House K-Cup 12 ct 2/$12 = $4 (Used $2/1 IP)

4 Del Monte canned fruits $1 = $0.75 each (Used $1/4)

Total after coupons and tax: $35.50
Total Savings: $39.98

I have to say, this Mega Event was very confusing and took a LOT of math since the prices weren't marked because people don't get 10 items and then wonder why they didn't get the price on the label. So I understand why Kroger did it this way, but it was complicated for people like me who are terrible at math. And as you can see I still messed up a little bit. All in all though, I was very proud of this shopping trip.

So how did you do? Leave your link-up below and don't forget to comment! :D
