Shopping Update

This is kind of a random post. We have gotten some super good deals lately, but just haven't had the time to post them. So here are some of the highlights from the past couple of weeks. Now, where to start? Ah, how about the massive amount of Mountain Dew husband got?
So, that is 36 12-packs of Mountain Dew, which is a Pepsi product. Publix had Pepsi products on sale buy-two-get-two free. For about two days that sale coincided with a yellow flyer coupon for buy two get one free. They were $5.49 each, so buy getting them in multiples of 12 husband was able to do the following:
12 packs @ $5.49 each= $65.88
6 packs are deducted immediately (b2g2)= $32.94
4 packs are deducted by coupon (b2g1)= $10.98
12 packs for $10.98= 92 cents per 12 pack OR 8 cents per can!
That is definitely a stock up price, so stock up we did:) Here is what our soft drink stock pile looked like after we added our Mountain Dew to our Dr. Pepper:
 That should last us a while:) Now, how about some amazingly cheap lunch meat for sandwiches? These 10 containers of lunch meat (9oz each) cost us 77 cents a pack!
They were part of the Kroger mega sale and after mega savings they were $2.77 each. A coupon came out for $1 off each pack and there is also a Catalina deal for buy 10 participating Kraft items and get $10 off you next purchase. In essence we paid $1.77 per pack, but got a $10 coupon back that we used on other items. I am super shocked that Kroger turned right back around and is doing another mega sale with this exact same item, pricing and the Catalina is still valid. We will be eating sandwiches for lunch for quite some time:)
 Finally, this was a Publix trip that husband made today. All of this, including tax, was only $30! That is pretty excellent considering this is going to pretty much make 20 meals for us:) It is hard to see but that is 12 packs of the Kraft Fresh Take, we actually have a few more coupons but are saving those to use on a new variety of Fresh Take- Smokehouse BBQ, which we have only seen at Walmart so far. These were $2 and we had $1 off coupons. We also got 8 of the burrito kits, which are pretty much a whole meal since they come with rice and beans. They were b1g1 $3.19, making them $1.60 each, and we had coupons that doubled to $1, making each kit only 60 cents each! The Magnum ice cream bars were also a great deal. They are really expensive normally, so we only buy them when on sale. Today they were b1g1 $3.99 and we had $1 off coupons, making each box only $1. Now you only get three bars per box, but they are pretty delicious, so 33 cents each is fine by me:)

  1. Why can't you say "MY husband" instead of "so buy getting them in multiples of 12 HUSBAND was able to do the following"? Each time you mention your husband you A) sound like you speak at a 4th grade level or your husband's name IS husband and B) your grammar sucks! Goodbye.

    1. Husband here. My actual given birth name IS Husband Von Matterhorn. So calm it down a little son.

      Also, just the fact that you felt the need to create a Blogger account specifically to come here and snipe this comment at a nearly ten month old post on a couponing blog says a lot more about you than it does about my wife. Your parents must be so proud.

  2. Seriously, you got sand in your vagina over a pronoun? Beyond ignorant indignation, you further took offense by someone using a noun without a possessive? Per this, (a) may hap she does not think of her husband as property, (b) perhaps your grammar is moved by an unequal air pressure ratio in your cranial area, and (c) you are a troll. Sometimes playing in traffic can be a public service Sean.

    P.S. You seem to have sand in your vagina; might I suggest you discharge it in the wetlands to aid in the creation of a storm barrier in anticipation of the coming storm season, Sean.

    1. While your sentiment is appreciated this is not Reddit or 4chan. It's a couponing blog. There is no need to bring into question the inherent sandiness of a person's genitals on this matter. Thanks for the thought, but please do not feed the trolls.
