Super Savings Saturday – 8/2

a5

Wow, it’s the first August edition of Super Savings Saturday! This week was filled with many wonderful deals. My favorite goodies came from Rite Aid and Shaw’s. Sadly, the Market Basket strike continues. I hope they bring back Arthur T. and resolve this mess soon.

The beautiful purple flower was a gift from Hungry Bear, who slipped it into the front door and surprised me! (How sweet is that?) He was driving by a florist that gives out free flowers daily to different names. Wouldn’t you know it, his name was featured! I felt very lucky and blessed by his thoughtfulness.

Super Savings Saturday – 7/26

It’s time for another edition of Super Savings Saturday!

This week was a bit different than usual, due to the Market Basket strike. It didn’t affect me as much, since I always shop multiple stores, but many others were very upset. My Market Basket had no salad mix, no cucumbers, very little bread and almost no chicken, so I had to buy staples elsewhere and none of the prices were anything special.

Other than Market Basket, I hit my normal round of stores, skipping only Target and Walgreens. Rite Aid and CVS had a few goodies, but Shaw’s was the best!

2 Golden Grahams, on sale $1.99. I used 2 $0.75 Manufacturer’s Coupons (doubled). Total: $0.50 each!  (Another Hungry Bear favorite.)

2 Kozy Shack puddings, $1.00 each. I used 2 $1.00 Manufacturer’s Coupons (No Longer Available). Total: Free!

Super Savings Saturday – 7/19

a1

Welcome to another edition of Super Savings Saturday—a weekly post where I feature my best deals. By shopping only the sales and using coupons whenever possible, I’m able to continuously replenish my stockpile for very little.

This week, I found many necessary items on sale (veggies, fruit, water) and some fun treats like candy bars and ice cream. The only item I couldn’t snag was free Dramamine at Rite Aid. They were completely sold out of most everything, and I left with a rain check.

Local Produce Store:

Bag of apples, on sale $0.99/Lb. Total: $1.78!

Broccoli, on sale $1.09/Lb. Total: $3.41!

Poland Spring Sparkling Water, on sale 6/$1.00. (These can be used to make really good homemade root beer and Citrus Chillers.) Total: $1.00!

Red grapes, on sale $0.99/Lb. Total: $2.03!

Target:

2 Extra Strength Antacids, detail here. Total: $0.22 each!

2 Pure Via, on sale $3.45. I used a $1.00 Manufacturer’s Coupon stacked with a $1.00 Target coupon. Total: $1.45 each!

Walgreens:

4 Nestle candy bars, details here. Total: $0.14 each!

The grapes and apples were eaten as snacks and the broccoli was incorporated into many dinners. The candy bars and ice cream will be used next week for an anniversary sundae. Antacids always come in handy. The Pure Via was a great price and will be used constantly in oatmeal and iced coffees.
