Albertson sale & Smiths case lot

I haven't hit too many sales lately because I spent WAY too much last month. I'm going to try and control myself better this month, but I'm not off to a very good start =)

I started with Smith's case lot sale yesterday and got cases of:

Flour (8 5lb bags $1.60 each)
Peanut Butter (15 jars .87 each)
Mandarin Oranges (24 11oz cans .33 each)&
Tomato Soup (24 cans .40 each)

Re-stocked my supply of Pillsbury breads ,

and got milk and some other odds and ends.

Retail it was $144.74
I spent $74.63
A savings of $70.11

Today I went to Albertsons.

I got:

6 boxes of cereal ( Cheap cereal that came with a $5 catalina)
4 packs of gum (free)
2 bags of cough drops (free)
3 cases of water ($3/6)
6 bags of Starburst Jellybeans (My FAVORITE candy for $1.17)
1 box of 6 microwave popcorns ($1.49)
20 cans of chicken broth (.49 each)
1 doz eggs (free)
sour cream (just a need)
juice (just a need)
and a reusable grocery bag (I've been trying to buy one every trip)

Retail $116.13
I spent $42.03
& saved $74.10



It was a great chance to build up some food storage for cheap. How's everyone else doing? Does anyone have questions or want me to go over something about couponing? I'm also happy to get together with anyone who wants a one-on-one lesson. Just let me know.

Cafe Rio

I made the Cafe Rio pork & rice recipe's tonight. They were amazing. I broke my no more shopping this month rule again today =( I really wanted to make this recipe and didn't have most of what I needed. So I went to Smith's and took advantage their RX transfer promotion. They loaded $25 on to my Fresh Values card so I only ended up spending about $10. Anyways, I highly recommend the Cafe Rio recipe's. They were fairly simple and turned out wonderful.

My first Smith's sale

I hit my first Smith's sale today and it went pretty well. Not as well as I had hoped, I wasn't as organized as I should have been. I'm still learning, so I'm calling it a learning experience.


This is what I got:





4 pkgs of Dixie plates/bowls
7 btls Classico pasta sauce
11 pkgs American Beauty pasta
5 boxes Kotex liners
5 Colgate toothpastes
5 Colgate toothbrushes
5 bags Tyson chicken nuggets
5 Freschetta frozen pizzas



Retail $163.90
Paid $77.90
Saved $86.oo



The Smith's promo was ** MEGA EVENT Promo: Buy any 10 participating items and get $5 off instantly at checkout. Limit (3) $5 rewards per transaction. ** This is where I messed up a little. Like I said, I wasn't as organized as I should have been and since I was new to Smith's I was also a little flustered. I lost count and should have gotten 3 more items and done 2 separate transactions. The Promo limits (3)$5 rewards per transaction so I only saved $15 when I should have savde $25. Oh well. Like I said, live and learn. I still saved $86.



Another note I wanted to share in relation to this sale is something called Beer Rebates. I know what you're thinking, BEER?!? but it's not what you think. Beer Rebates are mail in rebates sponsored by Beer companies. They require NO beer purchase in the state of Utah. The way it works is on the beer isle or a beer display there are sometimes rebate forms. With these rebate forms, if you spend a specific amount of money on specific items (usually party foods: chips, meat, pizza's, etc.), you mail in your receipts with the rebate form and the beer company sends you a check. No questions asked. I recently found a rebate form for $7.50 back with the purchase of $30 worth of Freschetta frozen pizzas. I almost didn't keep it because it's not a brand I usually buy, but luckily I did. Smith's had them on sale for $4.49. They were part of the $5/10 Promo making them 3.99 and I had $1 off coupons off coupons making my final price $2.99. I also got 5 for my mom in-law to reach $30 for the rebate. So, I paid 31.15 for 10 pizza's, with the $7.50 rebate that makes each pizza $2.37. Not too shabby.
