$5.32 Kroger Trip
I went to Krogers today to pick up some sweet potatoes for Thanksgiving and decided to snag some of the great deals going on this week. Here are some of the bargains I got. These deals expire today.
To help you follow my paper trail, whenever I used a clipped coupon I put the date of the paper. My Krogers store will double any manufactures coupon up to $0.50
I also get some of my coupons from Cellfire and Shortcuts, where you can load coupons onto your Krogers card. These coupons won’t double but you can combine them with manufacturers coupons.
Here is my shopping trip:
2 4 pk Cottonelles $.99/ea
-.50/Cellfire
-.50/Shortcuts
-.50/.25 manufacturers coupon (11/16) doubled
=$0.24/ea or $0.48
Sweet Potatoes $1.76/6 lbs
Bananas $0.57 (my son ate 2 bananas before I took the picture)
8 oz Kroger cheese $1.67
-$0.45 Shortcuts
=$1.22
Betty Crocker Frosting $1.67
-$0.50 coupon (11/16) doubled
=$0.67
4 boxed green giant vegetables $1.00/ea
-2 ($0.50/two coupons) doubled (10/5 and 11/16)
-3($.50/2 coupons) shortcuts
=.125/ea or $.50/4
Tax=$0.12
Total = $5.32
Note: I had a $.50/off Betty Crocker Shortcuts coupon that didn’t go through. But I got such a great deal on everything else that I wasn’t too sad. If it had gone through my total would have been $4.82!
