Kroger trip 5/5




Well this was my 2nd trip to Kroger this day. The first time I tried to run there between shifts at work I FORGOT my coupons! Can you believe that! I thought I had the envelope & list in my purse, but nope. Oh well. I ran again after my 2nd shift that day and of course since it was the night of the last day of the sale there wasn't much. It's not the lowest oop or the greatest trip, because I had to pick up stuff hubby wanted.

Here's what I got:

2 2 packs french bread from bakery .79 ea (managers special - no q)

Cheetos $2.18 (no q)

TGIF Jalapeno Potato Skins $2.15 - $1.50 q = .65

Kroger Potato Chips $1 (no q)

Lays Cheddar Sour Cream chips $2.28 (no q)

2 Country Crock Margarine $1 - (2) .40 q doubled = .20 ea

Kroger Pickles $1.99 (no q)

2 McCormick Grill Mates $1.25 - (2) .50 q doubled = .25 ea (they have the marinades $1 so you could get these free, but I prefer the spices I can use more than once)

2 Tabasco Hot Sauce $1 - .50 q doubled = free

1 Delallo Lemon Juice $1.39 - (2) .50 q doubled = .39

2 Men's Speedstick $1 - (2) .50 q doubled= free

Total = $13.12

Total Savings: $17.53 (57% savings)

Email

I'm not sure if any of you have tried to email me, but I haven't received emails for two days so I went to one of my other accounts and tried to send an email to test it, and I got a message that it is temporarily suspended! I don't know why. That is insane! I am so mad that is where I get all my emails now! :( Hopefully I will get it figured out. For now if you want to email me send it to thedubsstuff@yahoo.com hopefully I will get it figured out!!

COME ON YAHOO I'M GOING THROUGH WITHDRAWALS HERE!!! lol

She saw my binder and introduced herself :) Some of the deals that I had posted we didn't have at our Wal-Mart. I forgot to bring my list of deals with too so that made it a little harder!! I still got a lot of great stuff! AND I got overage for some of my coupons! Love it!
