This week at a local Kroger is triple coupon (up to $.99) week. Now, this doesn't happen very often around here so it was VERY exciting for me. I made two runs to that store today. The first one isn't as impressive so I will start with it:
Total of groceries without sales and coupons: $62.38
Total SAVINGS (with sales and coupons): - $36.07
Total after sales and coupons(before tax): $26.31
Plus Tax: + $3.15
TOTAL PAID: $29.46
PERCENTAGE SAVED: 57%
Well, I thought that was good. After getting home and doing more internet coupon searching, I found some FABULOUS coupons. I couldn't wait to go back, so after Hailey was in bed and Mike was home from work off I went again.....
Here is what I bought and what I paid the second go round:
2 Dial Complete- sale$1.49 ea.; used 2 $.50 coupons(tripled) = +$.02 total
2 Mr. Bubbles- $2.89 ea.; used 2 $.50 coupons (tripled)= -$2.78
2 Sesame Street Bubble Bath- clearance $1.55 ea.; used 2 $.50 coupons(tripled)= - $.05
2 Travel Size Listerine- $1.99 ea.; used $.55 coupon(tripled)= -$.68
1 Kroger Shopping Bag- $.99,
FREEThen I had 2 $.75 off any item coupons (tripled)= +$4.50
So in the end Kroger PAID me $.18!!! To me, that is just FABULOUS! I saved 103%!! This was the first time I have ever gotten paid!! WOO HOO! Check out the receipt below:
My deals today do not stop there.... I also found some great deals at TARGET!!!
Here is what I bought:
2- 100 Nabisco 100 Calorie packs- sale $1.93 ea.; coupons totaling $3= -$.86
4- Pringles (snack size)- $.69 ea.; 4 $.50 coupons= -$.76
4- Dove Bliss Candy Bars- $.99 ea.; 4 $1 coupons= +$.04
3- Quacker Granola Snack Bites- $1 ea.; 4 $1 coupons= ---
TOTAL PAID: $1.22
I think a day well spent at the store! What do you think?
I plan to scour the internet some more tomorrow and see if I can find any more good deals coupons before the triple couple event ends tomorrow!
