I did a little shopping yesterday.  I planned my trip out to try and get the best bang for my fuel and picked up a few good deals!!

The first stop was CVS to use the $3 off 3 Nabisco coupon that came out a couple weeks ago and pick up an extra newspaper.  My total was less than $2

The next stop was Michaels to pick up some yarn.  I posted a few patterns the other day for handmade washclothes and the yarn I suggested you use is on sale this week for $1 each.  This is the best price you will find it at and it doesn’t come around often anymore so I bought a few skeins for myself.  If you buy this yarn be aware that the variegated skeins are smaller (not as many yards) so you may not get as far with those.  I also picked up the candy tray on clearance for a future project.

Since it is right there I stopped into Walmart and picked up 2 bags of Purina One Beyond Dog food.  This size bag is $6.48 at my stores and after the coupon that was in this weeks paper it makes them $1.48 each which in my opinion is a great price.

Next was a quick stop to Aldi’s I spent about $15 on everything pictured.  We like this wine and it’s $2.69 a bottle so I bought a couple bottles and then I picked up a few things we needed.

My last stop was to Publix where I spent $17.30 and here’s how

• 6 Ritz Crackers $3.79 BOGO  -2 $3 off 3 mq = .90 each
  • I find with the grab and go we waste a lot less crackers so I picked those up instead of the regular boxes that have more in them.  We deal with alot of humidity and those are better for us.
• 2 Quaker Chewy Bars $2.99 BOGO –.75 off 2 mq =$1.12 each
  • this isn’t a fantastic price but we are running low on snacks
• 4 Dannon Activia $2 each  -$1 mq and $2/2 TQ  = FREE
  • As an added bonus Dave really likes these so I’ll be stocking up this week!
• 2 Banquet Chicken Nuggets  $4.99  BOGO
  • No coupon for these but we were out of nuggets and if you’ve ever had a kid in your house you know that you can’t go without nuggets LOL
• 1 Smart Balance Fat Free Milk  $2.50  -$1mq =$1.50
• This milk will be used for my coffee so I can cut out a few extra calories
• 2 7” Mickey Bowls 2 for $2.99
  • These bowls are really cute and will solve a problem with our new dishes and at that price I couldn’t pass them up.  Now we can have spaghetti and salads in these bowls instead of dealing with cereal bowls or plates with no lip.
