Welcome to another edition of Super Savings Saturday.

Since we’ve had 3 snowstorms in one week, my main focus was on restocking the fridge and freezer. I went into Market Basket for meat, chicken, produce, and milk. Most everything I needed wasn’t on sale, there were no mark downs, and I didn’t use a single coupon. The store was completely mobbed and it was a miserable experience. Total: $72.81. This isn’t how I choose to shop regularly, but life happens, right? 

After I brought the groceries home, I headed out again to search for clearance sales that I’d read about online.

Walgreens:

I didn’t want to buy too much, since it was only 50% off, but there were a few cheapies like these exchange cards for $1.49 that I couldn’t pass up. They’ll go straight into the stockpile for next year. The Ghirardelli chocolate boxes were marked $5.99, but rung up only $4.99 at checkout. A little pricey, yet worth it since the taste is divine.

Barnes & Noble:

Because I know how to buy books for less online, I rarely step inside an actual book store (we’re talking years). I will, however, make an exception for a red dot clearance sale that’s $2.00 per item. The selection was huge and I really enjoyed taking some time to browse at my leisure. I ended up buying 8 books, plus a latte in the coffee bar. Very relaxing way to spend 2 hours for less than $20.00.

Have you found any good deals lately?
