Albertsons for 88 Cents!
Last night Timbro threw down the gauntlet and challenged me to do a totally free shopping trip. While I’ve gotten plenty of items for free so far, I’m yet to walk out without paying anything because I have this pesky habit of buying things I actually need when I go shopping.
Today though, I came pretty damn close at Albertsons spending $.88 out of pocket and saving $12.96 or 94%. I could have gotten out totally free, but we actually needed tortillas and they were on sale (with in ad coupon) for $.99, so I had to do it.
I got:
2 loaves of Franz crushed wheat bread (regular $3.39, on sale $1.50- $1 coupon – double, paid FREE!)
2 boxes Ronzoni Garden Delights pasta ( Regular $2.49, on sale $1 – $1/2 coupon- double, paid FREE!)
1 Weber Seasoning packet (regular $1.59, on sale $1.39 -$1 coupon – double, paid free!)
1 package Mission Tortillas, (regular $2.99, on sale $.99 with in ad coupon, plus he must have screwed up and gave me a 10 cent overage on my coupons so paid $.88)
Definitely my most successful haul to date, but wait, there’s more! The guy gave me a bunch of game pieces for the summer sweepstakes and one was in instant winner so I have a free donut coming my way!
