Hey Local Folks! 5/11 & 5/12

"Hey Cheapo! Don't forget that today is 10% off day at Five Star and tomorrow is Triple Coupon Day!"

Not totally the best sales ever this week for 10% off day - but here are the highlights:
  • Bananas - $.59 per pound (they aren't on sale ANYwhere!)
  • Clearanced Ground Chuck - $1.54 lb. (woo hoo! Couldn't grind it myself for cheaper than that)
  • Chicken Breast - $1.79 lb.
  • Hot Dogs - $.88 each - $1.00 sunday Q = $.76 for two
  • Bread and 2 pks. buns: all 3/$5.00
  • Ok - I didn't plan to get the corn dogs, but I ran into my mom and grandma at the store. Since my mom is going to watch my son tomorrow while I head to another grocery store (for better deals of course), she wanted them for him to eat...so, there it is. Since they were 3/$5.00 too, I didn't mind so much.
Total: $19.20 - $2.92 q's = $16.28

Believe it or not, I'm already prepared for tomorrow's triple coupon day! At first, I wasn't quite sure if it was going to be worth a 2nd trip, but after treasure hunting through my savings stash I found six coupons that would save on top of the sale prices!
Here they are:
  • Betty Crocker Supreme Brownie Mix: 2/$4.00 - $1.50 sunday q = $2.50 for two
  • Ragu: $2.00 - $.90 sunday q = $1.10
  • Betty Crocker Muffin Mix: $2.00 - $1.20 sunday q - $.80
  • 2 Skippy Naturals: 2/$5.00 - $1.20 sunday q & $1.20 printable q = $2.60 for two
  • 3 boxes Kleenex: $2.97 - $1.50 sunday q = $1.47 for three
Total: $15.97 - $7.50 = $8.47

Always be sure to bring your coupons cut from the prior week's Market newspaper.

And please - don't forget your green bags!!
