Saturday I hit Walmart and Publix

I did pretty well at Walmart...I did my first ever price match, it went without a hitch. WD had Breathrite Nasal strips advertised for $9.99, they run $11.99 at Walmart, did my price match and I had a $2 off coupon so I paid $7.99 for those, I got a bunch of Campbells Cream of mushroom soups...they were on sale for .60 each, I ended up at .54 each after my coupons. Meow Mix cat food after coupons was $2.98 per 3 # bag. I'm making bananna pudding for church tomorrow, I didn't have coups for any of that, but all in all I did okay there. Now on the to fun at Publix...

The Marie Callenders Pie deal was my most favorite deal...here's how it went: 3 Marie Callender Pies at $7.29 each and 1 Reddi Whip was $2.00, total for the 4 items was $23.87. I had a publix coup if you bought 2, you got 1 pie free...deduct $7.29, I had a Target coup if you bought 2 of the pies and a reddi whip, you got $1.50 off, I had another Publix coupon if you bought 2 of the pies, you got a free Reddiwhip, minus another $2, I had .25 off Reddi whip, I had $1 off each pie...total at the end was $9.83 for 3 pies and 1 reddi-whip....can you believe that? You can't bake a pie for $3! They are nice BIG pies too, with a ton of different kinds. I got Welchs Grape juices for church, they were bogo AND I had $1 off each of them, then a nice couponer lady gave me 3 WD coupons for $1 off 2 of them, they ended up at .49 each! Carnation Evap milk was bogo for $1.45, I had coups for .50 off 2, making those .47 each, Ziploc storage & freezer bags were $2.50 each, I had coups for $1.00 off 2, making those $2 each, Stouffers family size entrees were $3.99, I had mfg coup for $1 off each, making those $2.99...can you make lasagna for $2.99? I don't think so. Cool Whip was bogo, Benefiber was $11.99, I had a mfg coup for $2 off and a Target coup for $2.00 off, making those $7.99. Pam Cooking Spray was $3.29 for 2 they were bogo, I had coups for .35 off each one making those $1.29 each, Wesson Oil was bogo at $4.39, I had coups off each one .30 off 1, making those $1.89 each, Oscar Mayer bacon was $3.50 each, I had a $1 off coupon making those $2.50, I think that was a Target Coupon. Then...the Vanity Fair deal. Nice one. Vanity Fair napkins were bogo, I had a coupon for $1 off 2 of them, making those .64 each for 2 pkgs of 100 each. The plates I had a coupon for $2 off 2 of those, making those .97 each. I had a real big stack of coupons. I bought some other things also, the little girl that was bagging for me at the end whispered to me....How much did you save? I spent $113.56 and SAVED $118.92! I had a blast! This is too much fun to be legal! All I can say is Thanks be to God....He gets the glory for my learning to do this, Vicki for teaching me and to benefit our church food pantry and others as well. Have a great weekend and Thanksgiving. Get some deals for yourself and let the rest of us know what your best deals are. God Bless and I will be out of pocket next week, so unless I have access to a computer, you will be on your own for Black Friday...make the best of it, and don't forget to always be polite, these cashiers will be stressed to the max, you can bet on that. Spread some fun and holiday cheer and smiles. God Bless and be a Savvy Money Saver always! ...Rg
