Shopping trips 6/12!

I had some AMAZING trips today! I barely spent anything!! Hope that the following transaction breakdowns help you out when you head out shopping this week:)

Meijer:
OOP: 6.74 Savings of: 25.98

I did this order in 2 transactions. I wanted to use an Of Your Next Order coupon i was going to receive toward my second transaction.

Transaction 1:
Cottonelle ultra 5.99
 -used $2.00 Catalina I had received from a previous purchase at Giant Eagle
Cottonelle with Aloe 5.99
 -used $1.50 Catalina I had received from a previous purchase at Giant Eagle.
2 Huggies wipes 2.39 each
 -used $.50 coupon from the 6/12 Sunday paper (doubled to $1.00)
 -used $.50 coupon from Huggies mailings (doubled to $1.00) - you can sign up to receive Huggies mailings here)

I also used a $5.00 OYNO from a previous transaction

The current promotion is spend $15.00 on Select products (Huggies, Lysol, Cottonelle and more) and receive $4.00 OYNO.

Transaction 2:
Auntie Millies hamburger buns $1.59
 -used $.55 coupon from the Sunday paper...maybe 5/15? (doubled to $1.10)
Schwebels hot dog buns $1.99
2 Finish dish washing detergent $3.00 each
 -used 2 .75 coupons available here (doubled to $1.50 each)
 -used $1.00 off 2 Meijer MPerk

used $4.00 OYNO from the first transaction.

Usually I would not pay $1.99 for hot dog buns. But there was a coupon on it for a FREE ticket to the Columbus Zoo when you purchased an adult ticket...so that made it worth it :)

Kohls
OOP: 4.28 Savings of: 26.80

Big Sister tee - 5.20 (originally 13.00)
Carters tank top - 9.00 (originally 18.00)

used $10.00 in Kohls Cash

 -used $2.00 coupon available here

I also used a $3.00 off $10.00 first aid purchase. This coupon should print when you scan your CVS card at the "red coupon machine"
Lastly, I used 10.97 in Extra Care Bucks from previous purchases

In this transaction I "made" $5.02 in ECB. (I received back more than i spent!)

Walmart
OOP: 1.25 Savings of: 3.40

Frigo string cheese .33
 -used $.40 coupon (no longer available to print)
Pert plus 2n1 shampoo .97
 -used $1.00 coupon from the Sunday paper
Dial Body wash .97
  -used $2.00 coupon from the 6/12 Sunday paper
Gerber yogurt melts 2.38

I originally planned to spend my small overage on a pool for the kids (I returned the one i had purchased at Target a few days ago because it had HORRIBLE reviews) But, Walmart had a terrible pool selection, so I had no clue what to get. I decided since we still had a lot of errands to run, I should be smart and get the kids a little snack :)

Target:
OOP: .13 Savings of: 11.56

2 Lipton Naturals tea $1.00 each
 -used 2 FREE coupons (no longer available to print)
3 Nivea men's Shave gel 2.74 each
 -used 3 coupons (no longer available)
 -used 2 Target coupons
Crayons .69

Office Max
OOP: $0.00 Savings of $2.99

Not a great brag but anyone can get these free this week when you print the coupons available here. Just print out the coupon and take to your local store!

Walgreens:
OOP: .88 Savings of: 18.59 & I received back $9.00 in Register Rewards

Gillette ProGlide razor 9.89
 -used $4.00 coupon from the 6/5 Sunday paper
Colgate toothbrush 2.99
Blistex 2.00

I also used $10.00 in Register Rewards

I didn't want (or need) the toothbrush. But they were out of 2 other items I wanted instead. I only had 1 $10.00 Register Reward, so I had to get my total high enough to be able to use it. I thought instead of wasting the other $2.00 I needed to spend I would get something that would at least give me some RR's back.


Total OOP: $13.30
Total Savings: $117.26
