Welcome to another edition of Super Savings Saturday.

July already! Can you believe it? I have been having such a wonderful summer so far. Here in New England, it’s a HHH (hazy, hot, and humid) day, but the weather’s been decent overall. The bugs, however, are another story! It’s been an endless battle with ants, flies, and bees.

This week was a good time for shopping. Everything I wanted was in stock and the deals were abundant.

Rite Aid:

8 Glacier Isle water bottles, sale price $0.50. Total: $4.00 plus $4.00 Plenti Points. (As you can see from the pic, they were mislabeled. They rang up just fine, though, proving you can’t rely solely on the tag.)

Shaw’s:

Caramel M&M’s, regular price $1.00. Total: Free with MyMixx coupon.

Chloe’s mango popsicles, regular price $3.49. Total: Free with MyMixx coupon.

1-lb box of strawberries, Total: $0.99 with MyMixx coupon.

1-lb container of deli potato salad, Total: $0.99 with MyMixx coupon. (This was the absolute worst potato salad I have ever eaten—dry, bland, and swimming in mayo! Never again…)

Target:

2 Maybelline Colossal mascaras, sale price $2.98. I used 2 $3.00 manufacturer’s coupons. Total: Free!

3 Seventh Generation laundry detergents, regular price $2.99. Total: $8.97 plus $9.00 Checkout 51 rebate! (There was no restriction, so I bought the trial sized.)

Have you used any coupons lately?

Welcome to another edition of Super Savings Saturday. This week was all about pet food. At two different stores, I stocked up on cheap food for the critters. Other good deals included free food, free lotion, and free first aid supplies.

Rite Aid:

4 packs of Band Aid gauze, regular price $2.79 plus Buy One, Get One 50% off. Total: $8.38 plus $10.00 Plenti Points. (Others mentioned on some deal sites that they received an additional $2.00 Catalina coupon with their purchase. I didn’t, but this price is good enough for me.)

2 Beneful dog food bags, clearance price $4.14. I used two $3.00 manufacturer’s coupons. Total: $1.14 each!

Walmart:

4 Aveeno lotions, regular price $2.97. I used four $3.00 manufacturer’s coupons. Total: Free!

2 Hood plain cottage cheese, regular price $2.89. I used 2 free product coupons (sent to me in a mailer as part of a promo). Total: Free!

Since we’re discussing Walmart, I wanted to mention that my store has discontinued price-matching completely. I always found it annoying and complicated, but I’m kind of sad it’s no longer even an option.

Petco:

Whole Earth Farm cat food, regular price $6.49. I used a free product with any purchase coupon. My paid purchase was a can of Friskies wet food. Total: $0.99!

Welcome to another edition of Super Savings Saturday.

I’ve taken the past two weeks off from shopping due to a lack of good deals and honestly not needing to buy a single thing (this is why I love my stockpile so much!). Of course, I can’t take too big a break from couponing without missing it terribly. Luckily, CVS and Rite Aid had enough goodies to lure me back in.

CVS:

I did multiple transactions to roll.

Transaction #1:  2 Garnier Full & Plush shampoos, sale price $3.50. I used 2 $2.00 manufacturer’s coupons. Total: $3.00 with $3.00 ECB!

Transaction #2: DiGiorno mini cheese pizza, raincheck price $3.00. Total: $3.00 with $3.00 ECB!

Transaction #3: Just the Basics 4-pack toilet paper, regular price $3.49. I used my $3.00 ECB and paid $0.49!

Rite Aid:

I originally went in for a moneymaker on Schick razors. Apparently, everyone else had the same idea because there wasn’t a single pack left in the store. That was crummy, but finding an unadvertised sale on soap made up for it.

2 Q-tips travel packs, sale price$1.27 each. Total: $2.54 with $2.00 Plenti Points! (These are so handy to take on vacation.)

4 Cetaphil Cleansing bar soap, 3-pack, clearance price $3.07. I used 4 $3.00 manufacturer’s coupon. Final Price: $0.07! (I have no idea why this was insanely cheap, but I sure was excited to find it. I prefer liquid to bar, so this will probably be a donation.)

Local Produce Store:

4 cantaloupes, sale price $0.89.

1 green pepper, clearance price $0.19.

Pack of zucchini and summer squash, 5 total, clearance price $0.69!

Have you found any freebies or cheapies lately? I’d love to hear about it!

Welcome to another edition of Super Savings Saturday.

Good deals were abundant this week. Since I was blessed with more time and energy than I usually have, I took full advantage and shopped ’til I dropped at store…after store…after store!

CVS:

4 Ragu pasta sauces, sale price $1.00. I used two $1.25/2 manufacturer’s coupons. Total: $0.38 each!

2 Colgate Sensitive Smart White toothpastes, sale price $3.99. I used two $2.00 manufacturer’s coupons. Total: $3.98 plus $4.00 ECBs! 

Dunkin Donuts:

Free sample of frozen coffee (extremely small size, but the taste was good.)

PetSmart:

Free bag of Nutro dry dog food (These were given out free to the first 100 customers.)

Hannaford:

Chuck steak at $2.49/lb was on my list. I changed my mind when I stumbled onto an unadvertised Manager’s Special on skirt steak at only $1.99/lb! Normally, that type of steak is around $9.99/lb, so it was a huge savings.

6 packs of skirt steak, total: $22.89! (We ate two for dinner and the remainder were marinated and then put into the freezer.)

JC Penney:

Free $10.00 off $10.00 or more purchase coupon. (The store was mobbed, so I’m saving it for later).

Walgreens:

I did 6 separate transactions since you can’t roll Register Rewards for identical items.

6 M&M caramel candies, sale price $1.25. Total: $7.50 plus $7.50 Register Rewards!
