Yesterday I planned on being a big bum. Dh and I were going to stay home all day, lounge in pjs and just relax. My plan was to read in bed all day. When I woke up Saturday morning I jumped onto my bloglines to see what had been posted. Money saving mom had posted a link to another blog's safeway deals. What a haul! It was too good to ignore, I had to go! I had neglected my coupons for TWO WEEKS. Which meant I spent a large chunk of the day clipping, organizing and planning my attack. I worked at the best deals combined with the coupons I had, making a list for each transaction. We ended up doing two, since I had dh doing his own I put each transaction's shopping list and coupons in its own baggy.
My transaction
Before sales and coupons: $41.21
After sales: $21.50
After $10 off 10 deal: $11.50
After coupons: $5.60
Hubby's transaction
Before sales and coupons: $38.34
After sales: $24.04
After $10 off 10 deal: $14.04
After coupons $10.29
That is $79.55 worth of groceries for $15.89
WOW! I LOVE moneysaving mom! And the new blog is going on my bloglines. I cant tell you how many times reading frugal blogs has saved me money, especially moneysavingmom in particular!
I'm not going to make a list, so here's a picture of the goods.
