For our personal shopping trip we remained under our $25 budget, but did spend right around $20.
We got:
2 Milks Free after two store coupons at Copps
15 Cans of Tuna .50 each after coupons at Target
2 Tide Stain Remover Bottles .99 each after coupons at Copps
6 Tide Single-Loads Free after coupons at Target
4 All 2-Load Detergents Free after coupons at Target
Grapes 1.29 at Copps
6 Back to Nature Mac & Cheeses Free after coupons at Whole Foods
2 Flintstone Vitamins $7 after coupons at Copps
2 Smart Waters Free after Coupons at Copps
in addition our earlier purchases of envelopes and candy at Walgreens came out to .72
All in all, our total came out to just under $20.00 (somewhere between $18.50-20.00)
We are hoping to save some extra money from this week and this coming week to stock up on some staples we are running low on (Vanilla, Flour, Sugar, Powdered Sugar). Since we don't want to dip into future grocery funds (and then end up spending $25 later on anyhow), we want to make sure we are staying a little bit below budget (~$5 for a few weeks) so we can have that money to spend already available.
So, despite my find of 16 copies of ads this week (Found an awesome truck stop at the in-laws) and the great deals at Walgreens, we are limiting ourselves to three transactions with around $18 out of pocket expense with a $10 RR to use next week and we are picking up around $3 of items at Copps--2 Oats and 1 bundle of bananas).
This post is rushed I'll admit, hopefully once Mrs. Deals school year begins we will have more of a structure established so fitting in posts won't be as difficult!
