(This is my second post for today, scroll down for a new giveaway plus.)
Hey Dolls!
As some of you may recall, I'm a couponer. I don't coupon every week, because it does take a lot of time. A lot of planning. A lot of transactions. And, double coupons are only 1-2x per month - and ain't no sense in couponing without doublers - LOL Typically I wait for the perfect storm of couponing: really good sales, plus coupons, plus doublers...and sometimes there is one of those manufacturer's promos in there too where you spend x and get x back.
I thought I'd share my latest haul with you all. It was a good one. Pretty simple week: good sales, good coupons, plus doublers. And if you don't know what a doubler is - at my grocery store, they will double your coupon up to a dollar so you can potentially save $2 per item.
Here's my take:
(16) bottles of Sweet Baby Ray's barbecue sauce
(16) jars of Weber's grill seasoning
(16) bags of Snyder's pretzels (8 of the big bags and 8 of the small flavored nuggets)
(8) bags of Kraft 100-calorie pack cheeses
(5) 3 Muskateers candy bars (putting these in the pinata for the kids' birthday party)
(4) packs of Bar S hot dogs
(4) packs of Oscar Mayer hot dogs
(4) cans of Lindsey olives (I usually buy the case at Costco, but these were cheap)
(4) big bags of David sunflower seeds (little snacky-snack at the office for me)
(4) cans of Ortega chiles
(4) big bags of peppermint LifeSavers (not pictured, part of a Father's Day gift)
(4) bags of Land o Frost smoked ham
(2) boxes of Crystal Light
(2) boxes of Ritz Crackerfuls (a complete rip-off at full price, but quite tasty)
(2) cans of Underwood deviled ham (great for quick kid sammies)
(2) boxes of Smucker's Uncrustables (these are great for the kids to take geocaching)
(1) can of Las Palmas enchilada sauce
The barbecue sauce and the grill seasoning were totally free. They were on sale for $1 each. and I had coupons for $1 off 2. Doubling them makes it $2 off 2 which means 2 bottles = $0. Same thing with the grill seasoning. The lunch meat was a good deal too - that was on sale for $2.39 and I doubled a dollar coupon making them 39-cents each. Not bad for a $3.99 item.
The savings.
Regular price for all items: $270.33.
Total out of pocket: $35.73.
I saved 87%.
Thanks for stopping in today!

I'd like to stop in...to your house for some of those big Snyder's pretzels and sunflower seeds. :D Any Dr. Pepper left to go w/that? LOL
You are such a coupon queen!
OMG, you totally ROCK on using coupons. I still have no idea what you did or how you did it. LOL. A lot of our stores here have a quantity limit on sales (5 max, etc.). And as usual, your post made me hungry!
So, so so jealous!!!! That is awesome. Makes me wonder if my husband will consider moving where there is Albertson's. LOL!
You blow my mind!
