Super Savings Saturday – 2/28/15

a7

Welcome to another edition of Super Savings Saturday!

This week was full of more cold weather, but NO snow! After dealing with a storm almost every weekend for the past 2 months, it sure is a relief. I am literally counting down the days until spring.

On the frugal front, I continue to shop the sales and use coupons. This allows me to build up my stockpile at a very minimal cost, and sometimes it’s even free. I didn’t make a lot of stops, but found many good items like cheap snacks, veggies, and meat!

Shaw’s:

The majority of my deals were found here. The snacks are already gone, yet the veggies remain (amazing how that happens, huh?)

6 Quaker Pop Chips, on sale $1.00. I used 3 $1.00/2 manufacturer’s coupons. Total: $0.50 each!  (I’m really not crazy about these, but my guy loves the sweet chili.)

4 Everyday Essential veggies, on sale $1.00. I used 2 $1.00/2 manufacturer’s coupons. Total: $0.50 each!   (I try to always keep frozen veggies in the freezer for last minute dinners.)

Season chicken legs, on sale $4.08 with a $2.00 mark down coupon. Total: $2.08!

Thin sliced Rib Eye steaks, on sale $9.36 with a $3.00 mark down coupon. Total: $6.36!

Starbucks:

On Wednesday morning, I used a coupon for a free breakfast sandwich. I created my own option with egg and turkey bacon on an English muffin. Everything on the menu was covered in cheese and I definitely didn’t want anything heavy/greasy so early. The sandwich was tasty, and I always love a freebie, but it’s not worth $3.75!

Staples:

Green reusable bag, free with coupon.

Walgreens:

2 butterball turkey bacon, on sale $1.29. I used 2 $0.75 manufacturer’s coupons. Total: $0.54 each!

Super Savings Saturday – 2/21

a3

Welcome to another edition of Super Savings Saturday—a weekly feature where I share my best deals and freebies.

It was a very light week of shopping around here. Due to the endless snow, cold, and wind, I’m limiting my trips for the time being. (It’s so hard to get around right now and the parking is insane!) I stopped into Market Basket for staples—chicken, veggies, fruit, and bread—and make two quick stops at Rite Aid and CVS. In my area, those drugstores are across the street from each other, so it’s super convenient. I skipped the rest of my usual run. Winter doesn’t usually bring me down, but this one has been a nightmare.

CVS:

Cucumber melon softsoap, rain check price $0.88. I used a $0.35 Manufacturer’s coupon. Total: $0.53!  (I prefer foaming pumps, but these are ok as a back up. The scent is delicious.)

Rite Aid:

2 Irish spring body wash, details here. Total: Free!

2 Stayfree maxi pads, on sale $3.00 each. I used 2 $1.00 manufacturer’s coupons. Total: $4.00, plus $4.00 in UP Rewards!

2 Vaseline lotions, on sale $2.99 each. I used 2 $1.00 manufacturer’s coupons. Total: $3.98, plus $4.00 in UP Rewards!

2 Glade scented warmers. I used 2 $1.00 manufacturer’s coupons. Total: Free, plus I submitted a $1.00 rebate for a moneymaker!

Assorted Valentine’s candy, 75% off. Total: $2.64! (Not pictured because a very hungry bear ate it all in the car before I could snap a photo, and no, I didn’t get any…)
