HT September 12 $2.15 OOP

Finally, HT had some of the Texas Toast in stock - I bought 4 boxes and got 2 more packs of chicken breasts . . .looks like we will be having a lot of chicken dinners this fall!!!!1

Sept 11 CVS great deal on Wisk!!!! $3 OOP

So we were down to our last laundry detergent - SO glad to find this sweet CVS deal on Wisk - thanks, HCW and SS! And thank you, Kristian for hooking me up with the q - you are awesome. Can you believe I got all this for a total of $3? That detergent alone is regularly $9/pc! People, you GOT to use coupons :-)

September 11 HT and Publix combined run $8.39 OOP!

I was SO proud of this run! I got 2 more packs of chicken at HT (I would have bought 3 but the manager told me ONLY 2 IPs per transaction - whatever - i am not sure that is correct but i just went with it b/c I am going back today) for a total of $2.24. That was awesome b/c it was just over 3lbs of breasts, making the chicken about 0.75/lb. I could have had lower OOP if i would have bought the smaller packs, but they were out. ANYWAY . . then I went to PUblix and got the rest of the items . . the mustard and TGIF gave overage, the cat food was on sale, and i also had a q for my creamer which wasn't on sale. Total OOP there $6.15. So, there is a SAD end to this story, unfortunately . . . when i got home with my scores i went to put the groceries on the counter and i dropped the wine bottle and the whole thing broke all over our kitchen floor - glass and wine EVERYWHERE. It was 6pm, i had been working since 4:30am, and all i wanted was that glass of wine and to revel in my savings. Oh well, 20 minutes of cleaning later i went BACK to publix and bought another big gulp at full price. STINGS to pay $13 for it when I just finished using my coupon skills to buy it AND so much other stuff for only $6. oh well . . .

September 9 HT & Publix $20 budget equals . . .

I utilized $39 in coupons in conjunction with sales on chicken breasts, OJ, corn, red bell peppers, and TGIF apps to buy $20 worth of our essentials. The only things we did not need here were the TGIF apps - everything else we were out of. I only bought the TGIFs at Publix to get overage while simultaneously getting my subtotal to $25. I still have to get soymilk, and more of the chicken while it is on sale - I got those packs for $0.50/pc - def stock up prices!! And I am so excited that HT is going to have SUPER DOUBLES starting Wednesday!!!!!

Publix 9/7 $12.50 OOP

I can't believe it is already 1 week into September! This year is flying by! This trip was good - I used $40 in coupons to get by subtotal down to $10. So that was great! I hope my wine goes on sale soon, though - this $11.99/bottle is too expensive. The Kraft $5/5 q is great, especially combined with the $1.00 off chicken wyb Velveeta Shells and Cheese peelie, combined with the Earthfare $1.50 off chicken IP. Love it! Then I had $1 off wyb Duncan HInes cake mix and frosting, combined with $0.35 off frosting (doubles to $0.70).I did a deal this trip, too, to get my subtotal up that wasn't MM like I hoped it would be. I bought the Banana Boat sunscreen, Schick shavegel, and Schick razors for $18.47, minus $12 in coupons, cost me $6.47. This would have been a good thing to do if I was trying to get my subtotal up but I really already had enough other items and we do not need any of the shaving stuff or sunscreen. So basically I wasted what overage I generated this trip on these items. Maybe I will return them . . .

Publix 9/02/10 $6 OOP

The yogurt was $0.25/piece, the Playtex were free with a catalina, the Milkbones were a $0.15 mm, the protein bars were $0.25, and my wine was $10 with my $2 winetag q.

Publix 8/30 $5.26 OOP

This was an awesome trip because the Listerine and Aquafresh sale they had went great with the Wags coupons, MQ's and Publix q's. I got $3.50 on overage for buying those 3 Listerine!! And the Aquafresh Extreme is my favorite toothpaste and I think i got it for $0.50/tube. We love Morningstar products - they were on sale for $2 and I had $1 manufacturer q's combined with $0.75 commisary q's, making them only $0.25 each! I had $1 peelie for the fig newtons, making them $1 - which was great because i have been craving them lately! The advil liqui gels were FREE - yay!!! They were $9, minus the Publix $5 off WYB2, minus (2)$2 peelie Man q's . . such a score. And a great way to get my subtotal up! Total I used $46 in q's!!!
