    Getting there.

    Second trip out with coupons and we got approx $40 of groceries for 8 cents.

    Edited to add how I did this:

    It was because I had some FPCs from my cereal and milk deal last week. *buy 3 boxes for 12 bucks, get free 4 litre of milk and FPCs on each box of cereal!)
    I had bought 6 boxes of cereal so had 6 shiny new coupons to use.

    I went for 3 yogurt products.
    (I opted for 2x 650ml Activia at 4.27 each, and 1x 650ml silhouette at 3.57 (the shelf said 4.27).
    Because those coupons have max value of 4.99 on them. Walmart puts them in as 4.00 vendor coupon and the change is overage (on your groceries, or cashed out)
    I had one coupon too for frozen OJ. .93 cents but max value of 1.99 so more overage.
    I had 4 coupons for $5 WUB 3 gillette products. So I bought 4 sets of 3 shaving creams at 1.46 each. That gave me more overage still.
    So I picked up a 4 litre of milk and ended up paying only 8 cents for the lot.



    I don't know enough about SCOP to know if I could have SCOP'd the inaccurate price and got another free. So I left that alone.. lol

    Also this evening, I did the IAMS sample shopping trip.
    30 bags. Value pre-coupons $51.90
    30 coupons at 2.00 off each.
    Walmart paid us $1.87 to bring them all home. (Plus the $3.00 coupons in each bag are a bonus for our furbabies. They don't expire till Sept 2012)

    Our dog, and cats, are super happy!

    The overage covered the taxes, and there is no deposit showing on the receipt. I can't remember if I usually pay deposits on the milk or not. We've moved provinces that much, I lose track.
