Finally a Great Sale at Kroger

For the past few months sales at Kroger have just been really blah, maybe a good price on milk or chicken, but nothing super exciting. However, this is the second week of a great mega sale! The mega sale is buy 10 participating items and get $5 off instantly, this also coincides with some great coupons and catalinas (buy a certain number of products and get a coupon for an amount off of your next purchase). I had to do this shopping trip in 3 transactions to get the most out of the catalina offers, but it was worth it. We got all of this for about $40 total. The pup-peroni is for my mom and was a really good deal. They are part of the mega sale for $1.99 and I had a couple of coupons for $1.50 off one and $1.25 off one. Right now if you buy 3 or more you get a catalina for $2 off. This is why I had to break up my items, if I would have bought all 7 in one transaction I still would have only gotten $2, but since I put them in two transactions I got another $2 off coupon. I didn't know it but there is also a catalina when you buy Kraft products and that includes the lunch meat and hot dogs, I was surprised when it printed a $2 off coupon. I was already planning on sending husband back later in the week to get some more stuff, but I was really excited when we got home and found that there is a $1 off of lunch meat coupon available to pair with the sale and catalina, I am already formulating a plan:) Those glade misters were also a good deal, they are $3.45 as part of the mega sale and I had $3 off coupons, plus for every one I bought I got $1 back (also part of why I had to do three transactions, I was only about to get $3 back, but that still makes them free). The Dole smoothie shakers were supposed to print a catalina for 75 cents, but it isn't always a guarantee and I was not going to fight for 75 cents.

And of course, everyday at Publix is a great day! That Mott's applesauce to go stuff is great for husband, he works with the mail, so it is nice to have a snack that you don't have to eat with your hands. They are on sale for $2 each right now and I had $1 off coupons. When we got home we found that they have now also put up a bogo coupon, so we will be getting some more:) There are 4 in a pack, so 25 cents is pretty good for a snack. The grits were also a great buy, quaker products are 50% off this weekend and I had a coupons that made each box about $1 each. I thought I had a coupon for the waffles also, but apparently I dreamed that, but I decided to get them anyway, they were only $1.25 per box. The green giant veggies were a good deal, they are bogo right now and with coupons I got each one for 30 cents each. I am not sure what the Jingos are, I am guessing a new product, they look like snack crackers, with coupon they were only 50 cents for the box, so we will give them a try!
