I actually did a bunch of shopping this week! I went to Publix, Rite Aid, Kmart and even did an online order at Walgreens. I came out pretty good in the end and have a ton of stuff to show for my total this week.
I got bored last Sunday –my husband was working in the basement and for whatever reason I decided I wanted to go check out the Kmart super doubles. Like I expected it was quite a mess. I am not even sure what my actual total was?! They are running a promotion where you get a $10 coupon when you purchase $35 in P&G items. I was well over the total but of course my coupon did not print at the register. So I ended up at customer service and after about 20 minutes and a million returns and attempts to get the coupon to print once we added another shaving cream the coupon finally printed. I am not sure how or where but somehow I ended up with quite a deal as they doubled more than the limit of 5 (at least that is my guess since I only have the last return receipt.)
I also was running low on paper towels so I decided to hit Rite Aid to score cheap diapers and a huge pack of paper towels. They were also offering a P&G promo–so I got a great deal and still have a $5 +UP Reward to use later and will get back a $2 Single Check Rebate! If you guys visit me over on I Heart Saving Money you probably saw the deal I posted last weekend where Walgreens was offering $10 off a $25 purchase. I decided to score more cheap diapers with my monopoly money (PayPal moolah that I get from doing various surveys.) So now I am sitting pretty on a big stash of purchases and scored some great deals!
This week I spent $47.91 for around $167 worth of products (not exactly sure as I don’t have the Kmart receipt) I am a little bit over my typical weekly amount but I am still on budget for the year! That means I saved 72% this week!! Not too bad since that included 4 packs of diapers and 11 boxes of wipes–plus all the food!!
Here is what I scored for $47.91:

I still have not looked into how to add back my grid lines–I will try to figure it out this weekend 😀
How did you do this week?? Leave a comment or link to your weekly totals.
I wish we had a Rite-Aid down here, some of their deals seem pretty great.
HeHe…”fat” fixin country steak… assuming that’s “fast” fixin… but your typo may be more accurate… 🙂
tee hee–yes but they are so good 🙂
Ok, I went to Publix this week and Chinet napkins were not bogo???? I brought them to the checkout to make sure and they both rang up at regular price of $2.16. Confused!
I am in metro Atlanta and they were BOGO here…there may be slight variations in regions–some did not get the BOGO napkins–sorry 🙁
I spent $17.88 for $125.62 worth, saved $107.74 = 86%
I grabbed 36 bottles of Sobe water from CVS for 88 cents.
