So here's how I did:
Walgreens Trip
Actually this was two seperate transactions. To get the Dr Pepper deal Rewards you could only do two at a time. Since we are having some of the teenagers over on Sunday (superbowl) I thought we should have some cokes for them to drink.
Colgate Toothpaste $2.99
-2.00 Register Rewards
-.75 coupon
= $.49
Sunkist/Dr Pepper/Root Beer (3/$4.00)
-2.00 Register Rewards
=$.67 each
did that one twice
Milk $2.99 (no coupon, just the cheapest price in town)
Wonder bread 2/$4.00
Total before coupons/RR's $18.90
RR's back $6.00
Out of pocket $12.15
RR's used -$10.00
Actual money spent in store: $2.15 (that's a savings of 89%)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Aldi's
Now for the serious shopping...
No coupons or anything here. But there were some good deals (and prices were less than what I would pay other places). Deals worth mentioning:
Chicken Quarters $.79/lb.
Yukon Gold Potatoes, 5 lbs $1.99
Avacado's $.49 each (gotta have guacamole for Super Bowl!!)
The total was $30.69 for everything you see pictured

Teenagers!! Macaroni they can make themselves and it's cheap @ $.35/bx
ReplyDeleteI know that Dillon's is a sister store of Kroger's... I know that Kroger does manager's specials on things and I can usually buy 1 gal of milk for $.99 when I go the morning that they do their markdowns. I didn't know if you knew that, or if Dillon's does the same thing.
ReplyDeleteThanks Miriam.
ReplyDeleteDillon's does do the same thing. I will pick up milk there when they have the special's but they do go fast.
That's actually why I waited to pick up the milk until the second trip at Walgreens on the way home. Just to be sure that I couldn't get a marked down milk at Aldi's or Dillon's.
Gotta LOVE those manager specials! I try to look for those little tags wherever I am in the store!
