Whenever I saw people post the stuff they got at the store for a good deal I thought-who has the time, but I could not resist sharing this for several reasons 1-if you aren't doing this or don't believe it's too good to be true I wanted to show you that you should do it especially if you have kids and that it really is true. So a few weeks ago there were some great deals at Albertson's and I had one of my first successful weeks and saved $250, got $70 worth of FREE meat, 12 bottles of lotion for .25, .50 salad dressing, etc. i was sooo excited! This week was another success. Every week I have saved quite a bit. This week I had to take a picture to prove it and document it for me to remember and to share. It seriously is such a rewarding program. You save tons of money, you can work on food storage, and you get tons of food! So here is my breakdown:
4 jumbo boxes of rice krispie's
5 spices (non-generic)
6 boxes of Keebler cookies
8 boxes of wheat thins
4 boxes of Fiber one muffin mix
5 containers of frosting
4 cookie mixes
ritz crackers
22 boxes of cereal
6 boxes of pop tarts (2 fiber one's)
8 boxes of granola bars (a variety)
apple juice
granny bread
4 cans of tomatoes
carrots
celery
onions
potatoes
3 bags of marshmellows
4 mini warm delights (2 to a container)
4 frozen dinners
fresh parsley
And 2 free movie tickets!!!
Are you ready My grand total: was $105.51
My total savings was: $264.65
The best part of it all is that it is sooooo easy. All I use is Grocerysmarts.com Utah code:
The first step is to order your papers (i order 4 sunday papers-and i think it is plenty, but you could get more and save even more!)
The website does all the work for us. I would highly recommend a paper cutter-you can get one at staples or I love the pampered chef one, because you do cut out quite a few coupons. It took me about 1 hour to research and cut out and then I spent about 1 hr at the store. I had to go to the store anyway. It is a little bit of a rush-everytime I checkout I am nervous, but it has gotten to be so fun and I am figuring out a few tips as I go. You just have to start somewhere and it usually takes a few weeks until you have several papers-just depends on the coupons that week.
It is Amazing!!
