Thrifty Shopper Thursday One Day Late
May
21
This week’s Thrifty Shopper post is pretty bad. I have two pictures out of 3 shopping trips and I lost all my receipts so I can’t completely break down the deals. At least I use my American Express card to buy almost everything (so I can get money back each year!) So I know how much I spent and how much I have left over. I also got $6 in rebates to add to my budget!!!
Smiths Total Spent: $7.83
This was bought on Monday morning when Smiths was doubling coupons. The Flipz, 3 Musketeers, Mentos candy and gum were all free. Nothing better than free snacks for my husband to keep at school so he doesn’t waste money buying snacks at the school bookstore. And he’s not going to gain weight of it either because he has his own method of fat burners. He rides his bike to school!
With coupons the Cherrios were $1 each. Not a fantastic deal but my kids love them. French’s Honey mustard were 49 cents each and the Rosarita refried beans were 67 cents each.
Sunflower Market And Buy Low – Total Spent: $10.45
Sunflower market:
- Grapefruit 6 for $1
- Red Grapes 88 cents a lb
- Natural Chicken Tenders $1.88 a lb
Buy Low:
- Jenni-O Turkey Franks 26 cents each
- Whole Wheat Bread 98 cents each
I also got $10 of fruits and veggies at Buy Low with a WIC voucher. Buy Low’s great produce deals that I took advantage of this week include (some were Wednesday only deals):
- Oranges 4 lbs for $1
- Broccoli 2 lbs for $1
- Cucumber 3 for a $1
- Bell Peppers 3 for $1
- Pineapple 3 lbs for $1 – I wonder if its true that eating a whole pineapple will put you into labour?
- Romaine lettuce 2 for $1
- Carrots 3 lbs for $1
- Avocado 4 for $1
If you live in Utah County check out Buy Low’s produce deals each week.
Fresh Market Total spent: $11.63
This was kind of an emergency shopping trip. I had bad heartburn late at night and I was all out of antacids so I went to Fresh Market where I bought over priced Tums that I didn’t have any coupons for. I also bought 4 jars of Western Spaghetti Sauce @ 98 cents each and 2 bottles of Hidden Valley Salad dressing that were on sale for $1.98 and I used 2 $1 off coupons.
Total Spent this week: $29.91
