New to the coupon thing.. but had a wicked day today :)

(some stuff is missing)



Or so i think i did atleast ..

after reading the post " 6.00 can get you a lot of stuff!" i went out to no frill in search of the boxes with the 10.00 worth of coupons. They only had rice krispies.. oh well I bought 2 anyway and used my WUB2 coupon that was sent to me by a lovely member of this board

So I got ...

No Frills
2 Boxes rice krispies .. 2.99 each = 5.98 - 2.00 WUB2 = 3.98

Walmart

2 packs of Cottonelle - 4.97 x 2 = 9.94 - 2 1.00 off coupons = 7.94
2 boxes nutri grain bars - 1.97 x 2 = 3.94 - 2.00 off coupons from cereal boxes = FREE
2 boxes rice krispie squares - 1.97 x 2 =3.94 - 2.00 off coupons from cereal boxes = FREE
4 x's quaker mini's - 4 x 1.25 = 5.00 - WUB4 coupon = 1.00
Whole wheat gold fish crackers - 1x 1.97 - 1.00 off coupon = .97
Some no tangle hair elastics - was 3.97 , on clearance for 1.00
Dawn Dish soap - 2.47 - .50 off coupon = 1.97

Price Choppers

1 box of raisin bran - 2.99 - 2.00 off coupon from cereal box = .99

Pharma Plus

1 box mini fudgscicles (sp) - 2.96


Total spent $20.70


Oh and I was kicking myself when i went into pharma plus.. they have Dawn dish soap on BOGO and i coulda used my .50 off coupon there.. oh well.. i have some more so will go tomorrow and grab 2 more.

Great job! And if you wanted Rasin Bran for cheaper, PharmaPlus has them for 1.99 so it would be free!

[onlybluemomma]

hmm the pharma plus here had raisin bran but it was 2.99 aswell (i didn't have the coupon with me).. maybe they did not put the sign up?

[kiwis-mom]

Whole wheat gold fish crackers - 1x 1.97 - 1.00 off coupon = .97

Can I ask where you got the coupon for the gold fish crackers? My daughter loves these but I've never seen a coupon for them anywhere....

[onlybluemomma]

A wonderful member of this board sent it to me in an envie full of coupons to help me get started.

[onlybluemomma]

karalin9 is her S/N .. maybe she can tell you where she got the coupon

Don't worry about the Dawn at Pharma Plus, they have them priced at $3.99, so you would have got 2 for $3.49, an ok deal but not the greatest. If you keep an eye out you can probably find Dawn in the future between 99c - $1.49 a bottle after coupon.

Great shopping though, I'm jealous of all the free stuff!

Great shopping. It feels good doesn't it!

Great shopping!!

[rhiannon1891]

ROFL - My husband says I'm a coupon crazy wife, but I'm not so sure he's proud of it! He likes to roll his eyes as I price match at Walmart with coupons

Sometimes I think he'd rather not be seen with me LOL

Coupons can really add up, nice job.
