The plan this weekend was to do the promotion again over at Safeway. Unfortunately, I've been feeling less than spectacular. Thanks to an accident in October 08 I have been left with a herniated disc that has not repaired itself like every single doctor I spoke to said it would. Thankfully, I have the best husband ever and he carted me over to Safeway, carried all the heavy stuff and has basically been treating me like a princess for the past, oh month. Don't worry, dear reader(?) I am heading to the doctor post-haste to get this sorted out, hopefully.
Anyway, my husband does not enjoy grocery shopping. He generally dislikes every type of shopping other than one that involves books and/or video games (both is a bonus). But he was very patient with me this trip and to thank him for taking the time to basically be my assistant/maid, I made it quick. So no promotion of adding calculating $3o worth of feel good items and matching coupons. We did a rather quick trip to just get some of what we consider essentials that we were running low on:
We bought:
$6.98 2 boxes of Post trail mix cereal (had 2- $1 off coupons and received $1.50 of CATS for the purchase)
$5.99 Diet Coke 12 pack
$5.99 Fresca 12 pack
$0.00 Fanta 12 pack
$0.00 Ginger Ale 12 pack
$0.00 Dasani water 12 pack
(promotion is buy 2 Coke 12 packs get 2 free and a free Dasani 12 pack free - good deal!)
$4.00 4 bags of various Snyder pretzals (on sale $1 a piece - these are the small ones but still over 50% off - usual retail is $2.49)
- $10 Feel Good Promotion CAT
- $.75 Post trail mix CAT
- $1/1 Post
- $1/1 Post
= $10.57 OOP
Not too shabby (saved 78% or $37.18).
