A Quick Trip into Kroger

Since DH sent me to the bank this morning, I figured I was already half way to Krogers already, so decided to pop in there for a quick stop also. We live 25 minutes from the store, so I try to make the best use of any trips.

Total before Kroger card and coupons $73.17
Total spent $2.74
Total saved $70.43

It's hard to see that there are 3 Reach Flossers to the left, along with 6 Snickers candy bars....and 1 of the butters is behind the other two.

Then to add icing on the cake, after I paid, the catalina machine (coupon machine next to the register) spit out a $1.00 off my next shopping trip coupon and a coupon for $1.00 of another Smart Blend margarine, which will be FREE this week after the coupon is doubled!!!

Here is the bottom of my receipt, showing total spent (for 37 items!!!) and total saved (96%). Don't forget, our Krogers double $1.00 coupons.

So basically, I spent $2.74, but got back $3.00 worth in coupons......like getting paid to shop!! LOL!

Clearance Diapers at Walgreens

Yesterday, I was out and about and remembered that I had a Register Reward (RR) of $5.00 to use by today for Walgreens. So I stopped in to find something to spend it on, as I didn't have any coupons for any of the current sale deals.

Upon wondering around, I spotted the Walgreens Jumbo Pack (56 count!) of diapers, Size 1, on clearance for $2.19 a pack!!! There was 3 of the packs, so I went ahead and bought all 3 of them.

I used my RR of $5.00 and walked out with 168 diapers for only $1.98!!!

I do not have any little babies any more (my oldest is 15! LOL!), BUT I do have a very large family (DH is from a family of 13 himself!) and baby showers are non-stop here.

I plan on using these for baby shower gifts, with the next invitations that come our way! :)
