My Smith's Trip

You know I love to save money and clip coupons, and this week's grocery shopping was so fun! I took Ryan and went to Smith's last night. He was so impressed by my frugality! They're having a huge March Madness sale where if you buy 8 participating items you get $4.00 off! The sale runs through the end of the month. Here's what I got:

The best deal was 32 oz. Powerade's for $0.25 each! (We bought 11)
pasta .49 each (2)
Del Monte Tomatoes .24 each (8)
Kellogg's Cereal $1.24 each (6)
Salad dressing .49 each
64 oz apple juice .99 each (3)
I also bought (10) Pillsbury Grands Biscuits, on sale for .99 each. I used (5) .30 off 2 coupons from Smartsource and online. Plus the cans had .50 off 4 coupons attached, that I used too.
                                When you buy 6 you'll receive a $4 coupon good on your next shopping order!

Here's the breakdown:

I got $20 off the bill from buying the March Madness items.
I saved $18.50 by using MFG coupons
$73.68 in FreshValue savings
Total Savings 58% $92.18
62 items for $66.95

This is why I love Smith's more than Costco..
I contribute my success to all the great bargain blogs I read

wow that was amazing....takes way too much work for bargain shop but I'm thinking of trying it out. I get lazy and just buy whatever if it seems like a good price. THANKS for the bargain blogs!

Way to go!! Thanks for the links. Now that we are moving back it'll be nice to find the help in Utah and I might still keep up with the grocery game I'm doing now. :O)
