Anyways, there are several good deals at Kroger this week, many of them are carry-overs from last week. Here's what I got:</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">--4 General Mills Cereals $2.49 = 9.96 - $4 GM Promotion - $1/2 coupon, and 2 (.75) coupons = $3.46/4 boxes</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">--4 Green Giant Frozen Vegetables .88 each - .50/1(doubled) - .60/3 -.60/3 ecoupon = $1.32/4 boxes</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">--1 Yoplait Fiber One Yogurt 2.85 (Part of GM promo takes it down to $1.85) - $1 ecoupon -$1coupon = -$.15</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">--6 Pillsbury Cookie dough (I'll be taking these to work for Thanksgiving) $2.49 (GM promo item = $1.49 each) - (2) $1.25/2 coupons and (1) $1/2 coupon - (2) $1/2 ecoupons = $3.44/6 rolls of cookie dough</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">--1 Pillsbury Cinnamon Grands Cinnamon Rolls $2.49 (GM promo = $1.49) - .50/1 coupon (doubled) = $.50</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">--1 Idahoan Potatoes $1 - .40 coupon (doubled) = $.20</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">--Kroger 100% Apple Juice $1.63 - .40 store coupon = $1.23</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">--Big K Soda 12 pk. $1.99 - .50 store coupon = $1.49</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">--Milk $2.68 and NO Coupons!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">--Comforts Diapers on sale for $4.99 - $2 store coupon = $2.99</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">Also had a $3 off next purchase Catalina from last visit</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">Total 21 items for $14.33 + $2.33 tax = $16.66 AND best part is I got another $3 off cat for purchasing 6 or more Pillsbury items. I think I'm going to keep rolling that deal. When you do the math on that I basically got 6 rolls of cookie dough for $.44 and made .15 on the yogurt!</span>Vanessahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00978004142671017876noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523299780908422359.post-5215085947296397012010-11-16T17:30:00.000-08:002010-11-16T17:30:40.318-08:00Publix Trip 11/16/10<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXx1uiXBmdXo57JhQwqFFf8SI0kTaVe0L3cabEUEIptxQ8nWRt0NMvk8jB8mf-Sbjepq5HuRJFrUUd8saqekbN4d5D0LYKdIpgYbmwTODzrSRspPB5OppQ7dJDVh8gPkPkIlzphIlmkNE/s1600/001.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" px="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXx1uiXBmdXo57JhQwqFFf8SI0kTaVe0L3cabEUEIptxQ8nWRt0NMvk8jB8mf-Sbjepq5HuRJFrUUd8saqekbN4d5D0LYKdIpgYbmwTODzrSRspPB5OppQ7dJDVh8gPkPkIlzphIlmkNE/s320/001.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />
<br />

1 can of Tyson chicken breasts -- Paid about $1 at Publix months ago, this is a rather large can<br />
1/2 package of Hormel Pepperoni -- Paid less than $1 for the package, so half would be around $.45<br />
1/2 can of Black Olives -- my 2.5 y/o ate the other 1/2 of the can of olives -- $1.19 Aldi's<br />
1 can of Muir Glen Tomato Sauce FREE at Publix a few months back<br />
1 package of Kroger pizza crust ? I think it was about a $1<br />
1 package of Kraft cheese $.75 on sale and used a coupon<br />
<br />
So for a little more than $4 we had dinner for the family and it was very good!Vanessahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00978004142671017876noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523299780908422359.post-57253679867626514232010-05-21T14:36:00.000-07:002010-05-21T14:36:37.654-07:00Making Dinner Out of my Stockpile!So I decided to cook a pork 2.62 pound pork tenderloin I had in the freezer. It's been in the freezer since last year when I bought it for $5.95. To go with it I'm cooking white potatoes (paid about $1.50), organic carrots ($1 on sale), frozen corn-on-the-cob (Bird's Eye steamers -- used a coupon and got them for about $.20 a bag) and a 4-pack of King's Hawaiian rolls (FREE using peelie from Tyson entree). The total cost for the meal will be about $8.65 for a whole-lot-a food -- I'm sure we'll be eating leftovers for a while!Vanessahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00978004142671017876noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523299780908422359.post-54212001120676422792010-01-27T01:24:00.000-08:002010-01-27T01:29:48.912-08:00Take the Kotex Panty Challenge!

</div>I was in Wal-mart early this morning and they had just rolled out a clearance cart with cases of Pampers baby wipes regularly $12 for an case with 8 packs of sensitive baby wipes. They were marked down to $8, which is $1 per package. I only had one $.50 off pampers coupon but I went ahead and grabbed two cases, which came to $15.50 + tax for 16 packs of baby wipes. Luckily, I had a Wal-mart gift card so my out of pocket was $00.00! Too bad I didn't have more Pampers coupons.Vanessahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00978004142671017876noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523299780908422359.post-44865788791764864252010-01-23T03:16:00.000-08:002010-01-23T03:16:42.844-08:00Eat Better AmericaVisit the <a href="http://eatbetteramerica.com/">Eat Better America</a> website and sign up to get e-mails with great recipes and coupons.<br />

Luckily, Publix also accepts competitor coupons so I can check both stores to see which one has the best deal. Maybe these will go on sale BOGO soon, wouldn't that be great!</div><div> </div><div>Another option, is to use the Publix $2/3 Cascadian Farms frozen vegetable coupon from the Yellow Advantage Flier in combination with 2 of the $1/1 coupon and you'll save $4/3 frozen vegetables. Even better deal if you can get another $1/1 coupon and save $5/3. Most of the Cascadian farms frozen vegetables are priced between $2.50 - $3 at Publix. So they won't be Free, but if you buy a lot of organic foods, this is a great deal.</div>Vanessahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00978004142671017876noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523299780908422359.post-33421477592380687122010-01-22T15:33:00.000-08:002010-01-22T15:38:50.216-08:00Big Lots 20% off CouponVisit <a href="http://www.biglots.com/">Big Lots </a>website and sign up for their BUZZ CLub to get a coupon for 20% off at <a href="http://www.biglots.com/">Big Lots</a>.

I normally buy my bras from either Lane Byrant or JcPenney online and they tend to run $30 - $50 a bra, so I'm always looking for a good deal. <br /><br />Here's what I did to make this deal the best for me:<br /><br />1st<br />I went through <a href="http://www.mypoints.com/">MyPoints</a> so I could earn points in my account towards giftcards. I don't participate in some of the other sites that do the same thing, so there may be a better deal through one of those sites.<br />2nd<br />I visited <a href="http://www.retailmenot.com/">Retail Me Not</a> and found a code for 20% off your entire order, which worked!<br />Code: 000208024<br /><br />So I ended up with 4 bras originally $42/each = $168 - $84 (B2G2 Free discount) - $16.8 (20% off discount) = $67.20 + $4.99 S/H + $6.68 Sales Tax = $78.87<br /><br />I was able to save about 60% off the original price and ended up with 4 bras for less than $20 each, not a bad deal.Vanessahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00978004142671017876noreply@blogger.com0
