Total Spent OOP - $18.73- Total Saved $174.26, PLUS- I still have $28.00 in Register Rewards to spend (but I have learned that ideally it is most beneficial to spend your register rewards on items that you will get register rewards) Now, just as a note, I would NEVER in a MILLION YEARS spend almost $200.00 on all of this, but it gives you a thrill when you realize how much (in theory) you COULD have spent, but didn't :)

Here is my Albertsons Deal for this week, well, it is the end of the Albertsons ad for this week as the new one begins tomorrow, anyway, I got 4 Boxes of Cereal, 2 NutriGrain Bars, 1 Special k Crackers, 2 Keebler Cookies, and 1 Keebler Crackers. Total Spent OOP $7.60, total Saved $33.95. I could have actually spent $2.60 because I have a $5.00 Catalina, but I am going to save that for a deal later this week.

WaLGreEns

Here is part of my deals that I got at Wal-Greens, I am still not done, but the stores were out, so we will have to go back.

Transaction 1: Vaseline Sheer Infusion Lotion, Oral B 1-2-3 Toothbrush 3 filler items .14 each.
Total Spent OOP $1.36, Total Saved $11.42, received $10.00 Register Rewards
Transaction 2: Herbal Essence Conditioner, Gillette Fusion Razor, Oral B 1-2-3 Toothbrush, and 2 Filler Items .09 each,
Total Spent OOP $1.43, Total Saved $18.44, Received $11.00 Register Rewards
Transaction 3: Emergen-C 2 pack, Chapstick, Vaseline Sheer Infusion Lotion, Filler .14 each.
Total Spent OOP $.89, Total Saved $15.45, received $13.50 Register Rewards
Transaction 4: Herbal Essence Shampoo, Oral B Toothbrush, 2 filler items.
Total Spent OOP $1.56, Total Saved $7.74, Received 5.00 Register Rewards.
All in All, I spent $5.24, I saved $53.05, have $20.50 left in Register Rewards.

Key Thing to Remember, if you can use the Register Rewards to get items that you will get Register Rewards for, that gives you the best bang for the money because it is for lack of a better analogy, like a circle where you will always end up with a register reward which you will then spend to get another one.

Week Of 9/20 Deals

Ok, this is my post from last week on my other blog, but I am going to put it on here for some content, and I will add my new deals later tomorrow.

WalGreens


~Total Spent OOP- $1.52 ( I used $10.00 in register rewards from last week) But I got $13.00 in register rewards, Total Saved $39.37- Basically what I paid for was tax, my subtotals on everything was either .01 or .00.



Wal-Mart


~I got 4 AirWick I-Motion Compacts and 3 Airwick I-Motion Scent Oils - Total Spent OOP $8.04, Total Saved $61.89


Albertsons, Smiths, and Rite Aid






~At Albertson's I got the 12 cans of Campbells' soup- Select Harvest and Chunky- Total Spent OOP $7.45, Total Saved 28.88, PLUS I got a $5.00 Catalina coupon for next time.


~At Smiths I got 12 boxes of Jello/ Pudding (these are the BIG boxes) 4 boxes of Kraft Deluxe Mac& Cheese and Velveeta Shells, 4 Boxes of Wheat Thins, 2 Kraft BBQ Sauce, 2 boxes of Golden Grahams, and 2 boxes of Kix- Total Spent OOP $12.90, total Saved $34.29. ( Had I had Golden Grahams coupons, I would have saved more, but aside from those I had a coupon for Every Single item there) PLUS Parker got an adorable cute little stuffed dog that the manager gave him because he was being a little fussy, they lost the box that had them in it, found them, couldn't sell them so she asked if it was ok for Parker to have it and he was a happy boy the rest of the shopping trip :)

Then at Rite Aid- (I will post a real picture when I exchange them) But there was a super good deal going on for the Huggies Diapers, but all the Rite Aids in I swear all of Utah was out, and they weren't going to get any more til a week from Saturday (after the deal and rebate were over) but the Rite Aid off 1600 N. was substituting the Rite Aid Diapers, using the price of the Huggies and when the Huggies came in you would exchange the Rite Aid Diapers for the Huggies. That is the story in a nut shell, but basically the diapers were on sale for 3/$33 for the Jumbo Pure and Natural, but then I had $3.00 off Manufac. coupons, $2.00 off Rite aid coupons, and $5.00/ $20.00 coupon, so I did this transaction twice, 3 packs of Diapers, $9.00 manufac coupon, $6.00 Rite Aid Diaper coupon, but then I had the $5.00 off $20.00 purchase (which is before coupons) so I spent $14.92 for the 3 packs of diapers, but then I get a $10.00 Mail in Rebate back, which makes the diapers $1.64 a PACK! HOLY CRAZY DIAPER DEAL, also on one of the transactions I got 2 Clean and Clear Items, and they paid me .50 for each one :) on sale for $4.50 each had 2 $2.00 Manufac coupons, and 2 $3.00 Rite Aid coupons. PLUS I get to submit my receipts for their Fall Gift of Savings and get a $10.00 Rite Aid Gift Certificate, so they are basically paying me for the stuff. Not too Shabby :) , Oh ya, total saved $74.12 (after figuring in the rebates, but not the gift card)

~So all in all, I spent $58.11, I saved $199.20, plus I got a $5.00 Catalina coupon, $13.00 in Register Rewards, and should be getting a $10.00 Rite Aid Gift Certificate.

It's a Start

Ok, so I have decided to post my deals that I get shopping on here rather than on my personal blog. After getting other people look at my blog, which I don't mind them looking at the deals, I would prefer to keep the two seperate. So, here goes, since apparently I don't have enough things to keep me busy...
