[2010ontest]

I don't post on brag section usualy, but why not today! Without mail we do something else

I manage to do 2 transactions close to 30$ before coupons at IGA to have the free savoura tomato cherries twice This is a printable coupon reported by cbou today.

My total out of pocket was 33.89$
Total before coupon is 64.43$
so I saved 30.54$
This is what I get:

1st transaction:
1X mini-wheat at 2.99$ (have a FPC for banana)
2X mini-wheat little bite 2.99$ (both have a yogourt FPC)
1X cascade enviropack 4.99$ use 1$ coupon (pack have the peellie for free kidd pass at zoo)
Fresh chicken breast w/o bone and w/o skin (2.99$/lb) pack cost 11.19$
1X mushroom 0.99$
1X romaine lettuce 0.99$
1X savoura cherrie tomato 200g 3.79$ (use coupon free with purchase of 30$)

To do my second transaction I cut the FPC from the mini-wheat cereal box and return at IGA to buy:

Hum, maybe to be more sensationnal on SC I needed to put only the 2nd transaction that only cost me 7.06$. lol. But totally no-reflecting the weekly reality of grocery shopping for a family.

Thanks Nathalka

I prefered to do 2 transactions of 30$ at IGA this week to have 2 times the free tomato... instead of having the tomato at 30$ and the freebie of the week at 70$ this is freedo chocolat chipit 100g

Pharmaprix/SDM 20X event:

2X ice cream 6.29$ - coupon 5$ (cereal box, use 2 coupons)
1X eco-sac pharmaprix 0.79$ (to get extra 100 optimum points at each use)
1X sugar 2kg 1.99$
4X butter 2.99$ ea
1X oasis refrigerated juice 1.96$ - coupon 0.75$ = 1.21$
2X oasis shelf juice 1.29$ - coupon 0.75$ = 0.54$ ea
1X milk 4L 2% 5.81$ (minimum by law) (bonus 5X points)
2X milk 4L 3.25% 6.07$ ea (minimum by law) (bonus 5X points)
2X chips lays 1.88$ ea
2X Huggies suprem T4 13.99$ ea (1000pts bonus wub2 and coupon bonus point 1500 pts wus 15$ huggies) - 1X coupon 2$ - 1X coupon 1.50$ = 12.24$ ea

Total = 83.59$
coupon = 15.75$
oop = 67.84$
Base points = 810
bonus point = 3280
20x event point = 15390
Total point = 19480 (I use ratio 475 (200$ special redemption) to convert my points in $, 19480pts = 41.01$)

37.56$ of this bill is for food and associated with 11580 points (24.37$), the other 30.28$ is for diaper and is associated to 7900 points (16.63$).

NB: I try to use Pharmaprix to buy my milk because I don't have other way to reduce my milk cost in Qc. So at least I rack optimum points for my milk and reuse my points to buy grocery and/or electronic.
