Savings Snack: Week of August 24
Posted By Savings Lifestyle: Andrea On August 29, 2008 @ 6:27 pm In Shop + Save,Strategies to Save | 7 Comments
Well, this week was a quiet week at the grocery stores, but I managed to find a few deals worth stockpiling! Take a look at all the deals I laid out on my kitchen floors that are in-process of becoming nice and tiled (for super cheap!):
[1] Total OOP: $4.30
Total Savings: $19.80
Sorry for not unwrapping my toilet paper from the bags. I just didn’t see that as super efficient, so I just made a toilet paper tower with the few other things I picked up! The cottonelle is an everyday price of $.99 at Kroger. Those $.50 coupons in the paper last weekened doubled making it, you got it…FREE!
Meijer
[2] Total OOP: $41.56
Total Savings: $101.40
I finally did the Kellogg’s deal! So, not only did I only pay $5 for that back pack (since you get a $10 credit off a backpack when you purchase $10 in Kellogg’s products) BUT I’ll be sending in my Kellogg’s rebate to get $10 back! And, I’ll also be sending in for the Blueberry Muffin Frosted Mini-Wheats cereal rebate [3] too. Hopefully a copy of my receipt will be acceptable since I forgot to ask for a duplicate. That’s what happens when you shop with a little one :-)
And, there are a few Catalina promotions I got in on too! I received a $1 Catalina to use on my next order for purchasing Pillsbury products. I only purchased 4 Grands! Biscuits so I’m not sure if that’s the trigger for it to print. I’ve read at HCW that others are getting these by making the same purchase. I also received a Catalina for 120 Bonux Box Tops, which is equal to $12 when turned into our school along with our Box Tops. You must purchase 15 box tops products to get this one. SWEET!
Sam’s Club
Total OOP: $57.34
Of course, there’s never savings at Sam’s since it’s a warehouse. I will admit, even my frugalness didn’t get the cheapest deal on paper towels. I could have gone to CVS and acquired 16 rolls for $13 and get $2 ECB’s back. But, ya live and learn…and realize, you can’t always get every deal!
My total OOP was $16.68 for baby formula and some soy milk. Since Andon is allergic to milk, he’s still on formula. I thought I would go ahead and try soy milk to see if he liked it since it’s cheaper. I don’t think Andon likes this experiment so we’ll be keeping him on the formula until his allergy changes :-)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Grand Total: $119.88
Grand Total Savings: $128.18
My total was higher because of our Sam’s purchase. Otherwise, I would have been good and making my budget of $100 this week. Hopefully you were able to stay on your budget this week and still score some super amazing deals!

I always share all my savings around the blogosphere with some other super savin’ ladies: MoneySavingMom [5], BeCentsAble [6] (Show and Tell) and the “Cent”sible Sawyer [7] (CVS Superstars and Drugstore Divas). Be sure to visit their links to see how others made out this shopping week too!! It’s always fun to see other frugalistas doin’ their thing!!!
