I did some early Saturday morning shopping and I wanted to brag about what a great job I did. Crazy thing was I didn't have hardly any coupons. It was mostly due to some really good sales at Safeway. I did combine a couple of sale items with coupons and got an even better deal! Here's a breakdown of what I bought:
10 Nabisco Snak-Paks
6 cans Rosaria refried beans (I loved the flavored ones)
4 containers of Del Monte Fruit Naturals
2 8-cup bags of Lucerne Shredded Mexican Style Cheese (looks like 1 in the picture but there are 2 big bags there)
4 cans Campbell's Select Harvest Coup
2 boxes of Pop Secret Popcorn
5 pounds ground beef
1 4-pack of 60watt bulbs (my only non-sale purchase because a bulb burned out in the bedroom last night)
2 gallons Lucerne milk
The total before coupons and Safeway card savings was $103.66 but I only paid $43.60. That would be a 58% savings. w00t!
Deals worth mentioning? The fruit cups retail for $1.99 each (insane) but I ended up paying $.25 for each. :D They were on sale for 10 for $10 and I had 2 different coupons that were save $1 on two and I got them doubled up to $.50. So it was a savings of $1.50 for 2 or $.75 each. My other awesome deal was the soup. The soup retails for $2.99 a can but Safeway is having a 48 hour sale (Today and tomorrow) where they are $.88 each. I had a Safeway coupon (printed from their website) that was $1 off of 4. I was told that you can't use the Safeway doubler on Safeway coupons, you can only use them on Manufacturer coupons by my checker doubled mine up to $.50 again. So that meant I got $1.50 off of the 4 cans of soup, bringing the price down to $.505 per can. Oh, and Safeway had a coupon that where you got $10 off if you spent $50. That was a good deal too! The Snak-Saks and refried beans are both normally $2.79 each but were on sale 10 for $10.
I do the majority of my shopping at Winco but I'll hit up Albertson's and Safeway for their sales, especially since they take the Internet Printable coupons but Winco won't.

Isn't it fun? I found it really hard to shop at Winco and pay full price I got to the register and was like, awww man, only 4.00 in coupons? LOL... I had so much fun, and Brian was especially impressed with my 10 packs of cottonelle for next to nothing. I learned the lesson too to only use the coupon on a whim if it's pretty much near expiration- you never know when there's a sale too!
