The Great Grocery Challenge

Jewel: OOP $14.20, Saved $58.96!

I don't typically shop at Jewel, but they have had some great deals that I couldn't pass up this week! For a short time, they doubled 5 coupons up to $1. (They don't usually double at all.) PLUS, through next week they are giving University students and employees a 15% discount!

For $14, I was able to get 10 boxes of cereal, Nestle drumsticks, 4 2-liters of Dr. Pepper, and 4 packs of Klondike bars! PLUS, I still have a $4 catalina to use.

Target: OOP $11.39, Saved $21.61!

Meijer: OOP $0.26, Saved $37.86! 

I had $20 in Meijer coupons from a Pantene money-maker a couple weeks ago.

Weekly Totals: OOP $25.85, Saved $118.43! (82% savings!)

I will already say that my shopping next week will probably be over budget...just a guess based on the deals I've seen so far.

The Great Grocery Challenge

 

Walgreens: OOP $20.93, Saved $25.50!

Not my best Walgreens trip, but I got some pretty cheap diapers and wipes which we needed.

Target: OOP $20.64, Saved $18.01!

Pretty nice trip even if I had to pick up a couple things without coupons.

Jewel: OOP $22.10, Saved $41.00!

I don't typically shop at Jewel, but they had a great deal on Jack's pizza. I also ended up getting a coupon for $2/$25 in my email so I picked up quite a few canned vegetables and some sand toys for Drake's first trip to the beach next spring!

Meijer: OOP $40.62, Saved $21.28!

The hubs made a trip to Meijer to pick up a few things for his "boys weekend". :-)

Weekly Totals: OOP $104.29, Saved $105.79!

So, I went quite a bit over my budget this week, but my last few weeks were under.
