Weekly Totals
July 9, 2010
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.
