Making Money at Krogers

There are two really good deals going on at Kroger right now.

First, We have the Glade Catalinas. Similar to last month but this month they are for the Glade Scented Oil Warmers vs the Gel Warmers from last month.
These are $4.49
So, buy 2 = $8.98
Use B1G1 Q
Pay = $4.49
Get 2 - $4 Catalinas that are good on your next order.
I don’t know if you can roll these yet, but will try it out and report back.

Second, the Febreze Noticeable Starter Kit is a MoneyMaker
If you go to the PGEsaver coupons you can load a $5 off any Febreze Noticables Starter Kit, if you combine this with the $5 off any Febreze Noticables Starter Kit Coupons that came out a week or two ago.
Depending on the price of these at your store you should have about $2.50 - $3 of overage, so be sure to have items to eat up this overage in your cart.

The Albertson's Mega Sale is OVER :(

I love Albertson's Mega Sale, but boy do the wear me out. I had an extremely busy weekend. Once all of my qs finally arrived in the mail, I only had 3 days to use them so I made many many trips tp Albertson's over the last few days, and because I was there anyway I ended up buying all of my groceries both Albertson's list and my general list there, in the end I know this cost me about $25 but I was so tired and need some things.


This is what I ended up getting:
36 BirdsEye Vegetables
24 Red Gold Tomatoes
15 Deja Blue Water 6 packs
10 Wolf Brand Chili
60 Pasta Roni
4 C & H Sugar
24 Nestle Quik Shake
2 Albertson's Milk
2 Hot Dog Buns
1 Sunny Delight
15 lbs Ground Beef
10 lbs Seasoned Chicken Breast
3 - 2lbs packages of Shredded Cheese
40 lbs Chicken Thighs
40 Rice A Roni
10 lbs Russet Potato
2 French Breads
10 Double Papers
17 Boxes GM Cereal
12 Hamburger Helpers
12 Chicken Helpers
2 Prego Spg Sauce
1 Pica Sauce
1 Sour Cream
1 Cans Pinto Beans
8 lbs Cubed Steak
1 pkg Turkey Lunch Meat
1 IceBurg Lettuce
10 Betty Crocker Fruit Snacks

Total Value About $865, Total OOP $146.87
That was a savings of about 85%. I am definitely pleased with this weekends shopping, and can't wait to get better at this.

Organizing Your Shopping Trips

I am constantly asked how I organize my shopping trips. And there is some planning that goes into them. With 5 kids at home I want to get the most out of every trip, so I break up my trips by stores and transactions to accomplish the most on one outing.

I start by making list. I have two kinds of list, my needs list and my store specific lists.
Store Specific: I make a shopping list for each store that I plan on visiting. Each list contains only the items that are on sale for a great price or stockpiling items. That way I know exactly what I need when I go in so I can get in and out very quickly. If I have a lot of qs for an item that is on sale, I will break my trip up into several transactions to ensure that all of my coupons double or triple and I reach the maximum amount of savings.
Needs List: This is a list that I make through out the week with things that we need and that I am going to have to buy somewhere. I take the list with me to all of the specific stores and try to note their prices on these items, I then take my list to Wal-Mart. I generally buy most of the items on my list at Wal-Mart unless it is on sale else where.

I arrange my shopping trip so that I shop at the store with the most cold items last. I keep meaning to bring a cooler with me and the better I get at this the greater the need for the cooler. I will also make my husband or niece do separate transactions if they are shopping with me to allow me to speed my shopping along.

HouseParty.com

Houseparty.com is one of the greatest sites I have found. This site allows you to host a party and sends you great hostess packages for party. I have already hostess a Lip Stick Jungle Maybelline Orvilleredenbocker HouseParty. The hostess package was amazing. I received 15 severing bowls, 15 lipsticks, 15 mascaras, a small makeup collection, 8 or 9 boxes of popcorn along with lots of popcorn coupons including 4 frees. What's better than getting all your girlfriends together than getting all your girlfriends together to try free stuff.
