Kroger, Food Lion and Aldi,,,OH MY!!!

Okay, so Im NOT the most clever person trying to make my great shopping trip this week, sound like a line from "Wizard of Oz", but nontheless, IM SO EXCITED to share w/you what I got!!! :)

Well, for starters, still got some nice (expensive) freebies this week after coupons and sales, but I did something I said I'd NEVER do, and thats go to more than 2 stores for a deal...But I couldnt pass up the deal I got on Pampers Diapers (obviously, cue picture ;)....Anyway, my favorite find of the week was the FREE Tide stain release ($5.99) and Pampers diapers for $3!!!! Heres the list....


FOOD LION:

(6) Pampers diapers (diff sizes-w/a 2 yr old still in Easy ups and another baby on the way, I needed a wide variety ;)

$7.99 on sale
Had (6) Food Lion coupons for $3 off (I also had other coupons I could use, but some stores wont let you "stack" coupons, meaning using a store AND manf. coupon together, but she did for the 1st, making it $3.24!!), the rest of the diapers were $4.99 after coupon, still a good deal though!

Total before : $48

Total after : $28.20!! For 6 Pampers diapers!!


KROGER:

Did pretty good here today, I actually went in w/a specific list to ONLY get the deals I was after, knowing I was headed to ALDI to get the real groceries..

Just to name a few, after sales/coupons:

(4) Totinos pizza rolls (60cents/ea)
(3) Yoplait kids yogurt and Gogurt (99cnts/ea)
(1) Charmin 12 pack tp ($2.49)
(1) Pampers baby wipes tub (7cnts)
(4) Chex mix (50cnts/ea)
(1) Pillsbury pizza crust (55cnts)
(3) Pampers diapers ($5/ea)

And my FREE items were: 12 packs of Butterfinger snackerz
1 Tide stain release (5.99 on sale-used $3 manf coupon and $3 ecoupon)


Total before coupons/sales: $104

Total AFTER: $40.31 !!!!!!!!! I had $63.06 in coupons,thats MORE than what I paid!



ALDI

Last, but not least we went and got our "staple" groceries for the week, nothing too special to mention, but I basically got food for the week, and 4 meals planned...Not bad, I love ALDI!

Total spent: $37


GRAND TOTAL for a weeks worth of groceries, some freebies and 9 PACKS OF PAMPERS DIAPERS!!!! (can u tell Im excited about this :): $105.51 !!!!! (Just so you know the magnitude of how much diapers REALLY are, $50 of that were the diapers alone, and thats w/coupons) So, I had a pretty happy day :)
