I didn’t do very much shopping this week. I really just went out to grab some milk and bread. Of course I ended up with a few other things but still managed to spend less than $9 this week. I desperately need to do a meat stock up so I will probably take my extra money from this week and use it next week to cover the cost of the meat (I don’t have much variety at the moment and I think my family is getting tired of pork 🙂 )
This week I spent $8.82 for $37.42 worth of products. That means I saved 76% this week.

I made one trip to publix and spent $12 on $68 worth of groceries for a savings of 82%!!!!
I had fun at Publix today! I did these three deals so I could send off for two $5 rebates and one $15 rebate:
Rain check on Scrubbing Bubbles B1G1:bought 4 cans, used 2 $2/2 peelies from the cans and 2 $1.50/2 target coupons. Paid .55!
Bought 3 glade candles, used 3 $4/1 Publix coupons and 3 $2/1 MQs from Parade magazine, paid tax only!
Rain check on 2 Regenerist $3 off each plus 2 $1/1 MQs.Paid a total of $3.33.Will get $15 in rebate!
It’s refreshing to see that you take shopping breaks once in a while!
Went today to Publix, had to make 2 transactions to get the $5/$20 CVS coupon, end up paying $21 on $51 worth on groceries…
Again thanks so much for everything.
Dianne when you get a raincheck, do you pay for the item already when you check out?
TIA
Had a good trip to Publix tonight. Grabbed a bunch of good deals saving about $81 between coupons & sales. Found a great deal on Purina beggin strips for the dogs. The smaller bags are 2/5.00 but had a peelie on them for buy 1 get 1 free. I purchased 4 bags for $5.00 and had a coupon that came out during the holidays for $4.00 off 4 bags of Purina dog treats. Total price for the 4 bags of treats–$1.00 ! That works for me & the dogs 🙂 The coupons were also on the Purina canadian bacon cuts too.
Thanks for all you do !
Michelle D, I’m not sure I understand your question. You get a raincheck for the amount the item is on sale for and then when you redeem it,you pay at checkout. Does that answer what you were asking?
I was able to get in on the water deal. It is suppose to be back 1/31 if anyone didnt get a chance to get to Wags this week.
I spent $23.02 for $192.32 worth, saved $169.30 = 88%
I spent $18.56 for $72.85 worth, saved $54.29 = 75%
Is there a reason you’re buying water? It’s so much cheaper to get a water filter and have your own water bottle. Unless you’re storing water because of weather I think it’s wasteful.
My Walgreens has a manufacture tearpad/coupon for $1 off two Sara Lee breads. I got 2 loaves of bread for $3. Not too bad.
One more thing, I’m having trouble trying to figure out my savings percentage. Can someone help me??
I don’t save nearly as much as most to you do, but I am only feeding DH and myself. I’ll keep reading and learning.
To figure percentage: Add what you spent + savings = value. Devide savings by value to get percentage. Example:
Spent = 12.50
Saved = 95.00
————–
Value = 107.50
95.00 devided by 107.50 = 88.7% (or 89% rounded up)
I spent $20.38 for $148.47 worth, saved $128.09 = 86%. This was definitely my best week since I’ve been following this site!
Thanks Jo!! For some reason, I have had the hardest time figuring it out!!!
