Farm Fresh – deals galore!

Wednesday, August 26th, 2009

Using the matchup list provided at thecouponconsultant.com website, I made my trip to Farm Fresh tonight. I was fortunate to have a ConAgra coupon book in addition to newspaper circulars. (Especially since I don’t get RedPlum!)

My total at the register was $28.63 for all this:

This is a pretty good amount of food -- all for $28.63, but wait...

There is a promo going on: when you buy $25 worth of Kellogg’s products (shown in the newspaper ad) you get $10 off your next shopping trip…

Two $5 catalinas, which I'll use in the next week or so.

Notice, also in the picture, the Kellogg’s rebate form. For purchasing 10 of the items on the list, I get a $10 rebate directly from Kellogg’s. I’ll be sending THAT in tomorrow morning. (I use an exacto knife to cut the UPCs off the boxes.)

So, after the $10 ONYO (on your next order) and the $10 rebate, all of these goodies cost only $8.63! That’s what I call savings!

All this for less than $11!

Even though I don’t love super doubles as much as triple coupon events, I still enjoy getting such good deals. There are a lot of them this week.

My total today was $10.83. That included buying chicken breast (bone in) for dinner tonight (on sale for $0.87/lb.), some pears, and lunch from the deli (two cooked leg-quarters, normally $3.99 marked down by $3, so only 99ยข).

Anyway, enough jabbering… here’s the picture:

$10.83 for all of this! I'll be going back to Harris Teeter at least a few more times this week.

Harris Teeter Super Doubles 8/26 to 9/1

Wednesday, August 26th, 2009

The spreadsheet is up. I’ve verified the prices for the Hanbury store and as many of the coupons as possible. I don’t get the RedPlum inserts — occasionally I get my hands on a copy, but not always (didn’t get ANY in July).

Lots of freebies. I left the negative numbers in the spreadsheet, even though HT doesn’t give overage anymore. At least you can tell where your biggest savings are.

Here’s the link:

Please let me know if you find any mistakes or I’m missing any really good deals.

Coupon Shopping Brag Post

Friday, August 14th, 2009

I *love* triple coupons. I went shopping after Bunko Thursday night — both to Harris Teeter and to take advantage of the double-dollar coupons at Farm Fresh.

Total cost, including the 10 bottles of Diet Pepsi=$13.34

Harris Teeter -- Total cost, including the 10 bottles of Diet Pepsi=$13.34

Farm Fresh -- $15.38, good, but not nearly as impressive as usual.

It took my kids only a few minutes to realize there were frozen pizzas and hot pockets in the freezer. How come they never seem to notice when the trash needs to go out?
