This weekend I went first to Albertsons to take advantage of their amazing soda and produce deals! I bought 8 2 litres of Coke, 2 heads of lettuce (1 romaine, 1 iceburg), 1 3 lb bag of onions, 1 1 lb bag of baby carrots, 2 Rootbeer 2 litres, 2 boxes of popcorn and 4 12 packs of 7-up brand sodas. After we rang up these transactions we received a catalina for a FREE pack of albertsons brand diapers so of course we ran back to the diaper aisle and grabbed a bag of diapers, then after we bought those another catalina printed out for $4.00 off the same diapers so we went back and grabbed another pack of diapers. After all that we walked out of Albertsons spending 32.54 and saving 62.44!!
After we went to Albertsons we went to Smiths for their HUGE stock up sale and well you can just look at the picture to see what all we bought for 110.09! We saved $138.98 and walked out with 2 carts full of food and beverages! One trick I use when planning out my buy ten get $5 off transactions is I create an excel spreadsheet where I list the quantity I am buying, the item, the price of the item before the coupon but after the promo and the value of the coupon. This way as I make adjustments to the quantities I want to buy I can make sure I am still buying within groups of ten and it is easier to look at while I am at the store. I still bring the grocerysmarts lists so I can make sure I grab the right items!
So after all is said and done I spent a total of $142.63 and saved $201.42! I spent more than I normally do but I didn't have anything else I needed to spend money on this week so I splurged!
