Super Savings Saturday 11/15

I went out Saturday night for some last minute deals. I had $26.48 left to spend out of my $35/week goal. I made three stops. Here is how I did:

Target

I specifically went to Target to get the Scrubbing Bubbles deal. They were out of the 1 bottle starter kit that was on sale for $14.99. There were two of the 2 bottle starter kits on the shelf, so I went to scan them and they rang up for $14.99 too! Yea!!! Here is my deal:

2 Scrubbing Bubbles Shower Cleaner kits $14.99 ea
...- 2 $10.00 printable MQ
...-2 $3.00 Target Q ($3.98 for 2 kits!)
4 Muir Glen tomato paste $1.09 ea
...- 4 $1 printable MQ

Total OOP $4.34 plus tax!

Rite Aid

Okay, I know this is a weird transaction, but I am very brand loyal when it comes to ketchup. I have to have Heinz. I rarely see Heinz coupons, but Rite Aid had a sale this week so I zipped in for my ketchup.

2 Heinz ketchup $1.99 ea

Total OOP $4.10

Kroger

I just had to go back to Kroger for the terrific Mega Event deals. The prices I am showing are after the Mega event deduction:

2 Land o Lakes butter $2.00
...- 2 $0.55 MQ ($1.45 ea)
6 Carnation evaporated milk $$0.50 ea
...- 3 $1/2 MQ (FREE)
1 Pam cooking spray $2
... thought I had a cell fire Q :-(
3 Viva paper towels $1.50
...- 3 $1 MQ ($0.50 ea)
3 Betty Crocker potatoes $1 ea
...- 3 $0.80 MQ ($0.20 ea)
2 Deer Park 3L water $0.50 ea
...- 1 $1/2 MQ (FREE)
2 Scotch brite sponges $0.50 ea
...- 1 $1/2 MQ (FREE)
2 Scotch Brite nail saver sponges $1.50 ea

...- 2 $0.70 MQ ($1.30 ea)
2 Toaster Strudel $1.50 ea
..- 2 $1 MQ ($0.50 ea)
1 Kroger light syrup $1.00

Total OOP $17.57 75% savings.

So total OOP for the week $27.77. I went over budget by$1.29. Not too bad.
