Fantasic shopping trip


Ah the sweet smell of success. I went across town to Giant Eagle today. They had a wonderful sale and I had wonderful coupons. Some of my freebies or very cheapies were:

Dannon Activia yogurt $2.00 – doubled $1 coupon = free
Friskees Natural Temptations = free
2 Rubbermaid storage containers $2.61 (on sale like 25% off) - $1 coupon doubled = 61 cents
2 Ziploc containers (pack of 4) $2.79 - $1 double coupon = 79 cents
4 Durkee gravy mixes 10/$10 – 50 cents off 2 coupon that doubled = 50 cents each
Daisy Sour Cream $1.50 – 50 cent doubled coupon = 50 cents (perfect for Mexican night tomorrow)
Hormel Completes $2.50 - $1 double coupon = 50 cents
Oven cooking bag $2.79 - $1 doubled coupon = 79 cents
Then my favorite deal (a double deal) 1 box of Fry Magic on sale for $1.99 - $1 doubled coupon = free
THEN on the front of the box $1 coupon on the purchase of chicken with that box and it doubled.
The pack of chicken I picked up was $5.91 – with a $2 store coupon on it and the register took both coupons!!! My chicken was $1.92!!!

Mfg coupon savings $22.20
Bonus coupon savings $20.94
Card discount $33.17
Total savings (57% saved) 76.31

Total after coupons $57.84
I liked my Dad’s comment when I read the results to him – “Well next time I’m sure you’ll do better.”

For once everyone will get to see me in the picture.
