This Weekend's Shopping Trip

I didn't really feel like there were awesome sales this week.  Maybe when I get paid again in two weeks they'll be better!






This week I managed to only spend $1.28!  I saved $5.36 or 80%.  I was pretty excited.  :)

Dawn dish soap 10.3 oz. - $0.99 each Walgreens coupon
- $1/1 coupon
Bought two for $0.50 each!

Musketeer Trifle bars
- $0.39 each Walgreens coupon
- B2G1 coupon
Ended up getting three for $0.26 each!








This week at CVS, I spent $12.65 and saved $18.58 or 59%.  I seem to be doing fairly well with savings at the drugstores.  I still need to do a little better at the grocery stores.  More on that in a bit...  Right now, here are the highlights from my CVS trip:

I ended up with 24 items for $20 in the 10/$10 deal.


This week I spent $130.28 in groceries and saved $73.35 for a total savings of 36%. Not bad, but not as good as the last grocery shopping week.  I definitely got some great deals, but overall, I think I could have done better.  We'll try again next time!

That's awesome! It starts to become like a game. Don't forget to look for coupons online! I like www.ppgazette.com because it has all the major coupon places in one spot. :)
