    Omg I've been busy! Kids, the holidays, Reno... frack my heads spinning! I can see my couponing will be taking a back seat I think for a month or so... (I say that but who knows I've got the feeevvvvaaaah!)

    So my grandparents asked if I could help their church. They are donating to Salvation Army and we're told they were desperate for formula and diapers. So my poppy says "since you are our designated family couponer can you help?" So I am like I'll try but that stuff is pricy and not something I regularly buy. Luckily I had a couple coupons from when my son was born. So off I go!!

    First stop loblaws. Ok so I way over traded for flamingo coupons 😳😳 so I'm trying to use as many as I can in the next three days.

    4x flamingo nuggets $7.99 ($31.96)
    2x in store promos buy 2 save $10 ($20)
    4x $3 cpns ($12)
    Op +$0.04
    (My store will apply overage usually if I have other product which I did chocolate haha!)

    Then off to Walmart the fun begins! I did three separate transactions to use my checkout accounts and 3 aveeno coupons (didn't realize they said one per person until tonight!)

    3x aveeno body wash $3.99 @pharmasave ($11.97)
    3x $5 coupons ($15)
    OP +$3.03

    6x laughing cow cheese $2 @fresh co ($12)
    (Yay to using almost expired coupons! See triscuits)
    OP $12

    3x triscuits $2.27 ($6.81)
    3x free WUB 2 laughing cow ($6.81)
    3x checkout $1 ($3)
    OP +$3

    Huggies pack $11.99@ longos
    1x $3 cpn
    OP $8.99

    Enfamil $11.98
    1x $15 cpn
    OP +$3.02

    2x pediasure 2/$16 (Walmart multibuy)
    2x $6cheques ($12)
    2x $3 cpns ($6)
    OP +$2

    Similac nursers $9.98
    1x $5 cheque
    1x $5 cpn
    OP +$.02

    Similac bottle? Formula... $9.98
    1x $15 cheque
    OP +$5.02

    Totals!
    Retail (at sale prices) $122.67!!! (Um wow formula is expensive....)
    Instore $20
    Coupons $94.81
    Checkout $3
    OP...... $4.86! Taxes in!!!!

    I'm super happy! I also picked up two samples from a mom friend (in picture as well) so those were free too. All the formula and diapers will go to my grandparents for their donation. I have other samples I have here that will also go and some pull ups. Pediasure is for my tiny little man who needs it (drs orders lol) and the food is for us. The aveeno I'll keep I needed the overage to help but I'll be pulling tons of my stockpile I think and adding it to my grandparents donation. I like the smell of the aveeno haha!

    Anywho thanks for reading. Such a great shop tonight plus I was alone no kidlets lol! Therapy

    Amazing brag. You are really busy with all the shopping. This reminds me I have couple of laughing cow cheese coupons from their game expiring tomorrow and day after. I will try to use them tomorrow. I tried using them on the weekend at Walmart, but they told me I can either price match or use the coupons because the coupons say not to be used with any promotional offer. I tried talking to the supervisor but she had the same comment.

    Gah that's frustrating! Maybe try at fresh co if you have one close?
