Welcome to another edition of Super Savings Saturday!

This week was all about meat. After taking inventory of my freezer, it was obvious I needed to restock (the only things in there were frozen veggies and a pizza!). Luckily, I was able to find lots of Manager’s Specials and mark downs. Because the deals at the drug stores were terrible, I skipped them entirely. (Does anyone really need more Propel water? Not me.)

Hannaford:

I found 2 small packages of beef brisket and 1 truly enormous pack that weighed over 6-lbs. The average price for brisket is 5 or 6 dollars; mine was on sale for only $3.49/lb.

Pack 1: $6.27.

Pack 2: $7.32.

Pack 3: $22.89.

Just as an observation, I prefer the smaller size. The largest pack was untrimmed and had much more fat. Even after cutting all the fat off, there was still a ton of meat, so it’s worth the money, but be prepared for extra prep time.

Shaws:

2 packs of deli turkey, on sale $3.99 with $2.00 coupons. Total: $1.99 each.

2 chicken drumsticks, BOGO sale and $1.00 coupons. Total: $2.67 for both!

2 eye round thin-sliced steaks, with $1.50 coupon and $2.00 coupon. Total: $3.38 and $4.01!

With Thanksgiving coming up soon, I will be looking for deals on whole turkey and turkey breasts, but for now, we’re ok on meat.

Welcome to another edition of Super Savings Saturday! Are you having a Happy Halloween? I sure hope so. Mine has been fun, but lots of activity and I’m exhausted.

This was a terrific week for shopping, both for me and my sister. She was kind enough to provide the picture above of her huge haul at Family Dollar. While I didn’t get anywhere near as much, I did find cheap makeup, boots, and food.

Family Dollar:

Because my sister lives in a metro area in Florida, she has access to many more stores than I do. She heard about unadvertised clearance on Instagram and checked out 4 locations. I don’t have a complete breakdown, but she found tuna, beef jerky, peeps, kid’s clothes, pet treats, Gain dish gloves, a 6-cube organizer, and a ton more! The most amazing part? The total was $28.99!  I am so impressed with her couponing skills.

Target:

4 pairs of boots, 40% off each pair with Cartwheel, price range from $9.99-19.99. (Not pictured because they’re gifts and I don’t want anyone peeking.)

CVS:

Revlon single eye shadow, regular price $3.39. I used a $3.00 in-store coupon. Total: $0.39!

CVS brand panty liner, regular price $1.27. I used a $1.00 in-store coupon. Total: $0.27! 

Shaw’s:

Split chicken breast, on sale $1.29/lb. Total: $6.37.

Spinach, on sale $1.00/bag.

Bob Evans Mac n’ Cheese, sale price $3.99. I used a free product coupon.

Welcome to another edition of Super Savings Saturday!

This week was full of great deals on random food items like spices and snacks. I was hoping to pick up some cheap Schick razors that were advertised at Rite Aid, but my store was cleaned out. In addition to the freebies and cheapies, I shopped at Market Basket for some staples (noting worth posting about). Because CVS and Walgreens had nothing exciting, I skipped them entirely.

Shaw’s:

2 McCormick Grill Mates, BOGO sale price $1.29. I used a $0.50/2 manufacturer’s coupon. (doubled). Total: $0.29!  (I bought Peppercorn Garlic and Island Spice. They are wonderful marinades for steak or chicken.)

2 McCormick vanilla extract, BOGO sale price $3.99. I used 2 $1.00 manufacturer’s coupons. Total: $1.99!

2 Taster’s Choice instant coffee, regular price $1.19. I used 2 $0.50 manufacturer’s coupons. (doubled). Total: $0.19 each! (Good to keep on hand for emergencies or travel, but not an item I’d use daily.)

2 Newman’s Own salad dressings, on sale $1.99. I used 2 $0.75 manufacturer’s coupons. (doubled). Total: $0.49 each!

Rite Aid:

6 bags of combos, on sale $1.00. I used 3 $2.00/2 manufacturer’s coupons. Total: $0.50 each!
