My Grocery Expedition

So today was a couponing day! Albertsons had doublers from their sunday paper, Smiths weekly ad made and coupon under a dollar a $1, Walmart had tons of travel items and Stokes will match any ad. So before i left the hosue I knew my shopping trip would be a long one, especially with four stores.

Here's what I got at Wal-Mart:

Shopping trip at Stokes! One of the things I LOVE about Stokes is that they will match any competators ad. So this week where Albertsons was doing their Big Quaker promotion I just had a gut feeling that Albertsons wouldn't have the type of oatmeal that I wanted. So I took it over to Stokes and got 10 boxes of exactly what I wanted.

used 2 $3.00 off 5
Final Price: $1.40 per box ($14.00 total)

Final Price: $0.48 (thats $0.24 per box)
Special K: $2.50 ea. x2 = $5.00
used $1.00 off 2
Final Price: $2.00 ea
Total Spent: $18.48
Total Saved: $8.50(from coupons)
$34.00 (with sale prices) == $42.50

Smiths promotion this week made it so that any coupon below a dollar would ecome the value of a $1. Which is awsome because they also had a lot of items on sale. I used a lot of coupons that I probably would have thrown away because they would have not been worth it.
