Catching up on Coupon posts!!!!!

Posted by Amber On May - 24 - 2009

One thing I truly love is that Owen is starting to realize the value of money (thanks to some hard learned lesson with his newly implemented allowance!) and he gets SO excited when I bring in a haul. He will run to the car and help me carry in the bags, help me stack the items for a picture and then ask… “mom did you get all this for $10?”… I was SO happy to tell him that the following load cost $3.18 OOP and I got $3 back in a catalina for my next order at Meijer! Meaning I paid $0.18 for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

More great deals were had last week. Its been a busy few weeks for me at Meijer. I am SUPER happy that they take the Walgreen RR as competitors Q’s because that has lowered my grocery budget to nearly NOTHING since the Meter deal happened!!!! YAY!
54 packs of Oscar Meyer Hot Dogs (yes we will eat them all…) -$1.25 (w/raincheck) – ($1/2 IP OR $1/2 from 5/10 SS) – ($1/2 Meijer Mealbox Q) = $0.25 / pack

15 Hunts Ketchups – $1 (w/raincheck) – (5) ($0.20/1 Q from 5/10 SS- *the first two doubled- the rest in the set of 5 did not* ) – ($1/5 Meijer Mealbox Q) = $0.52 each

16 A-1 Sauces – 2/$5 – ($2/1 MFR Q) – ($1/2 Meijer Mealbox Q) = FREE

4 Country Crock – $1.50 – ($0.45/1 IP Q *doubled to $0.90) – ($1/2 Meijer Mealbox) = $0.10 each

Philly Cream Cheese – $1.25 each – ($1/2 IP Q) = $0.75 each

1 Kraft Dressing – (leftover Q!) – $1.58 ($1.50/1 MFR Q) – ($1/1 Meijer Mealbox Q) = $0.92 moneymaker

2 Computer Papers (for printing more Q’s~) on sale for $2.49 (regularly $5.99)

also used: $3 off any $40 or more purchase and $27 in RR from Wags. Brought my GRAND total to $3.18 – and I received a $3 off your next order Cat!!!! Not bad for $0.18 eh? The boy who was checking me out was like … “whoa… $3 for all that???” He was very cordial in scanning my LARGE stack of Q’s and I thanked him amply…

    I have been looking for more coupons (being inspired by you!) and got Kraft salad dressing today – regular Kroger price $1.69 – I had a Kroger coupon for a free one, the $1.50 coupon and 2 $1 coupons….so 4 bottles for $0.39 each!

    Awesome!!! I know that there are couponers out there who will only get things if they are absolutely free or only pennies but for me… I feel like if I get multiples of an item (4 or more) for the same price I would pay for ONE then I have accomplished my goal!

    Hey Amber, what a haul! I had an awesome Target run a couple weeks ago – spent 24, saved 80 and am waiting for my 10 dollar rebate! Wa-hoo! :) Although I have to say I was relieved that there were no coupons to clip this Sunday. I needed a break. Maybe we can get together and you can show me your system, cause I am re-evaluating my system cause it’s taking too much time.
    Oh, and I got your comment re: Caitlyn. A professional photo shoot is not in the budget these days (I wish!), but you are more than welcome to take pics anytime for your own enjoyment or for your portfolio (not that you need help with that, your portfolio is fab already). Anyway, hope things are well – I was glad to hear the news about Kyleigh. We continue to pray for her and all the other babies. *hugs*

    Oh yes… I was ready for the break too! With next week being the first of the month I know there will be a slew! RE: photos… you just need to call me ;)
