Farm Fresh – deals galore!

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!

Day 21 – AYGC

Wow! Three weeks in already!

I picked up some cookbooks today from a fellow freecycler. Old cookbooks… just the way I love them! A Yankee Cookbook from 1939, an Indian cookbook and a Chinese cookbook (both from the 1970s). Why do I like old cookbooks? Well, it’s usually cheaper to cook with unprocessed ingredients and there weren’t too many around back in the old days. The only drawback is when a recipe calls for something obscure and I can’t find a modern substitute, which isn’t nearly the problem is used to be before wikipedia and answers.com.

Dinner today (prepared by my hubby) was bratwurst baked in sauerkraut, served with real mashed potatoes and a mixture of corn & peas. Yum! Why does dinner always taste better when somebody else cooks it?

No shopping today, so I’m well under my budget for the week. Heading downstairs to make muffin batter for tomorrow morning.
