Week of 1/31 shopping trip



So I spent a little more this week than I planned... but... I am pretty happy with the overall. I considered this to be a "stocking up" trip and then will buy fillers the rest of the month.
Spent 92.52
Saved: 130.99

What I got:
Meijer:
Gerber onesies- . (Meijer had b2g1 and I had coupons from gerber's website... ) so I got 3 5 packs of gerber onesies for $13....saved at least $17 on them. These are presents- so don't really factor in the $50 total but will come out of our gift savings
Chi-chi's salsa-  Free! On sale for $.99  had .50 q that my store doubles
Dove bodywash- free! was on sale for 1.99 and had mperks q for $1 and a man q for $1 yay!
Ragu- .(Meijer) $1 for 2 had man q and mperks q! (kind of spaced here though. I bought 4 thinking I could get 4 for as good a deal... forgot that my mperks q only applies to 2... booo on me=- still a good deal at 2 for $1.76 - not stock up.. but decent... and we eat LOTS of spaghetti)
Orville popcorn: Meijer had BOGO and I had man q for $1 off 2 - ended  up being 1.99 for 2 boxes... so i stocked up.
Pampers and huggies wipes: .99 - on sale for 1.99 and had .50q for each that doubles
Ham: On sale for 1.29lb from 2.99lb so instead of $29 it was $12 and change- this will be good for lunches and meals for this week
Cheese: (3) Kraft singles (pepperjack) on sale for 1.94 each and had (3) .75 manuf q's- again- not a stock up price but good to be used to lunches for Trav MUCH cheaper than deli slices and just as good. 
Cheese: (3) Kraft shredded cheese- on sale for 1.66 each. Had (3) .75 manuf q's but forgot to give them to the cashier, if i had it would have a been a better deal... so... not stock up, but a decent deal when you need cheese. I will freeze it and make sure it gets used well. 
Chi-chi's torillas .88 - - I went to get the tortillas that were on sale for 1.69 but they were sold out (apparently everyone thought snow=fajitas) so i got the 1.88 ones. I had a manuf q for .50 that my store doubled. I will go back later this week and see if I can't get the bigger cheaper package with the rest of my tortilla qs. They freeze well and we eat them often.
Temptations Cat Treats: .95 for 2 packages. On sale for 2 for $3. had a BOGO q and a .55 off q so I got 2 for .95 (I wish I had more q's this is a GREAT price!!!)
Glade oil candles - on sale for 2/$5 - had a manuf q for $1 off 2 and an mperks q for $1 off 2 .. not a  stock up price, but decent 
Skippy- on sale for 2.67 - had .50 manuf q that doubled so 1.67 for peanut butter. eh.. it was ok. cheaper than the off brand :-D
Pringles: on sale for 1.23 each had coupon for $1 off two = .73 each... not bad though I miss the times of $1 pringles in the big cans... *sigh*

Also had a mperks $ off coupon so I got celery, potatoes and carrots for free. It expired 1/31 or i might have bought that stuff next week as it's more for this weekend/next weeks meals (yay chicken soup!)

Kmart:  Is doubling q's up to $2 (First get a Shopyourway Rewards card, then you have to spend $25 before qs to get it... so you have to have high value qs and you only get to double 5 coupons...all other coupons can be used... but anyway ) so I got from them:
 Dove deoderant (2) - .25 each (didn’t double these)
Pampers wipes – free (on sale for 2.5 and had a 1.5 q doubled... )
4 boxes of ritz crackers .88 each (LOVE these and we usually can't afford them!) Onsale for 2.5 had kmart q for 1.88 each and had man q for $1/2 which doubled... so .88 each!!!
Johnson’s baby bodywash 20oz I think- 1.25 – I don’t want to spend $ on this stuff... but we were out
Airwicks plug ins freshners- 5.99 had $2 q that doubled... 1.99 for a double pack..

Kroger: Has a sale if you buy 10 of participating products you get $5 off your purchase. I wouldn't have bought 10 if i wasn't going to use them- but bc i had coupons and/or they were present I did it.
sobes-13.5 (18 of them) Bought my DH’s valentines present... SOBE’s (lol we can’t afford them in out budget but they were .75 each and I have some money saved for v-day. He will appreciate this more than candy and such ... :-D)
(4) Bar-s franks all beef .37 each
(4) hunts tomato sauce-  on sale for .49 - had q so got them for .29 each
(4) hunts diced tomatos -  on sale for .49 - had q so got them for .29 each
(I wish I had more q bc this is a great stock up price) ...bummer...
