<\/a><\/p>\nLast 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.<\/p>\n
Today though, I came pretty damn close at Albertsons spending $.88 out of pocket and saving $12.96 or 94%<\/strong>. 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.<\/p>\n I got:<\/p>\n 2 loaves of Franz crushed wheat bread (regular $3.39, on sale $1.50- $1 coupon – double, paid FREE!)<\/p>\n 2 boxes Ronzoni Garden Delights pasta ( Regular $2.49, on sale $1 – $1\/2 coupon- double, paid FREE!)<\/p>\n 1 Weber Seasoning packet (regular $1.59, on sale $1.39 -$1 coupon – double, paid free!)<\/p>\n 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)<\/p>\n 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!<\/p>\n
