I have decided to stock up on dry goods when they are on sale and store them on my shelves in Ball canning mason jars (these are 1/2 gallon size).
Hungry Jack premium hashbrowns are on sale this week at Meijer's for $1.25, and I had coupons (expire today) for .50/1. Each day, I stopped at the store and bought two, Meijer's doubled my two coupons, final price was .25 cents each! :)
The yellow popcorn is on sale at our local Spartan brand store this week for $1.79 for a 2 lb bag (cheaper than Walmart!), so I bought lots because we LOVE popcorn in this house.
Green split peas are on sale at Kmart for .99 a lb bag, so I used previously earned gift cards from last week to pay for the peas.
Mahatma rice is also on sale at our local Spartan brand store for $1.49 each and the store doubles .50 cent coupons, limit 3 like coupons. Because of a bonus point promo (for store reward card members) of gettinng 50 bonus points when you buy 2 of the Mahatma rice, I only purchased two bags each time I passed the store. This way, I was able to benefit getting 50 bonus points each time! The rice ended up costing .49 each bag (one pound) with the doubled coupons.
The pinto beans were also on sale at Kmart this week for $1.39 a bag, which is the cheapest price I've been able to find in my area here, so I snagged up some with my gift cards I had earned last week.
The jars ended up averaging $1.87 each after tax, but I'm a huge fan of Ball, and they were made in the USA! :)
