My “haul”

Posted by Little Miss Know it All

July 10, 2008 |

It was a VERY good day!  I had a local news camera crew following me around today while I shopped at Kroger and Target.  I had my runs carefully planned out, as always.  And as always, other things came up or they were sold out.  So we improvised.  All in all, I’m very pleased!

We went to Kroger and my first total came to $135, and after coupons it was at $58.  I typed in my Kroger plus card number and the total went down to $13.xx!!  (Plus $8 back in Catalinas)  The manager of the store was great–he was celebrating my success along with everyone else!  It was a lot of fun!

We went to Target where I had a smaller but still successful run.  $51.xx down to $6.xx after coupons.  We scared some poor cashier to death–she wasn’t warned at all we were coming!

After those successes, I decided to swing by Kroger again this evening.  Again, total came to $107, and I paid $17 oop. 

So, for the grand total of $37, I got all these things:

What you can’t see are 10 pkgs of Ball Park Beef Franks, 8 pkgs of Kraft sliced sharp cheddar singles, 4 half gallon Breyers Ice Cream and 3 12 packs of Coke!  All for $37!!!

    Woud love to see a breakdown of this order, it amazes me. I did good at walmart $82 with final cost 12.88. I can not do this with kroger no matter how hard I try. When can we expect to see you on TV and what channel?

    It will be on Channel 5 on July 31st.

    I don’t remember exactly what was in the order, but I’ll try to detail it as best as I can.

    10 Vitamin Waters–10/10 with .50 coupon doubled
    10 Ballpark Franks–BOGO sale and $1 coupon
    10 Cottonelle–.99 each with $1 coupon
    24 packs Kool Aid–.20 each
    3 cans Planters Peanuts–$2.99 each minus $3 q
    5 Kraft 2% singles–$4.39 minus FREE WYB coupon
    8 boxes of GM cereal–$1.88 minus .50 q doubled

    I forget what else…but that in general is the first run. The second run was very similar but also included 4 Breyer’s Ice cream for $2.27 minus $1 q; 4 Rice a Roni minus $1 q; two packs of hamburger and four boxes of Kroger mac n cheese; 3 12 packs of cokes plus 2 big bags of tortilla chips–minus 3 $2 q’s. In each order I had $8 of Catalinas off my order and earned $8 back.
