This week was my “make no excuses” week of couponing. I normally go to the stores on Wednesday morning, but I had no time to gather coupons before going out. My purpose is to get unadvertised deals, so I still went but bought nothing. Then I decided while typing all the unadvertised deals up that it was just too good of a week to not shop! So that night I loaded up all 5 girls and we went by ourselves to Publix to Target. This was my first solo trip shopping with everyone and it helped that I was super organized. It also helped that I had bribed them with half priced sonic cones when we done…
For Publix I grabbed the Evolution Juice deal, Special K deal, and a number of other deals. You can see my shopping list here with everything we got.
Publix Totals:
Total Value Purchased: $191.09
Total Spent: $71.43
Total Saved: $119.66 or 63%
Rebates & Apps Submitted for:
$20 Publix Gift Cards (2 Special K deals)
$14.25 various mobile apps and SavingStar
While I don’t count the apps into our budget, it makes me pretty excited to get almost $200 worth of groceries for $37 after those! That’s equal to an 81% savings!! I’ve already submitted everything and gotten emails that my two Publix gift cards are on their way.
Target Totals:
Total Value Purchased: $85.02
Total Spent: $55.73 (only $5.73 out of pocket)
Total Saved: $29.29
Gift Cards Back: $30
I technically paid with $50 in Target gift cards from deals we got a few weeks ago. So from out budget it was only $5.73! I love using past gift cards to pay for this weeks gift card deals.
Tip: If you are heading out this week to Target look for Pumpkins in the fruit/vege section. They have pumpkins on sale for $1.99.
Weekly Totals:
Total Value Purchased: $276.11
Total Spent: $77.16
Rebates Back: $34.25
