Whole Foods Shopping Trip

My last stop was Whole Foods to stock up on Mac & Cheese!

This is what I got:

Back to Nature Mac & Cheese - $1.00 (9)

- used (9) $1 coupons from August Whole Deal = 9 boxes FREE

Annie Chun's Teriyaki Noodle Bowl - $2.19

- Used $1 coupon from Whole Deal

- Used $1 coupon from HERE = .19

*we have never tried this product before, but I figured for .19 it was worth trying it and I thought they looked good. My husband took it for lunch the other day and liked it... so we may have to stock up!

My total was $13 something and I paid .19 cents!!!

At my store in Roseville the sale on Back to Nature Mac n' Cheese runs through 9/1/09 - so you have some time to score this deal!

Go HERE to see all the Whole Foods deals

Okay... So now for my Grand Total for grocery shopping this week:

Safeway $24.00 (stocked up on meat & cereal)

Raley's $36.14 (stocked up on bread & jelly and got the essentials)

CVS $ .43 (stocked up on drinks)

Whole Foods $ .19 (stocked up on mac n' cheese)

TOTAL: $60.76

What I got back:

Safeway $2 off cereal catalina

Raley's Will submit rebate for FREE YoPlus Yogurt

CVS $3 ECB

Whole Foods - Grabbed another Whole Deal full of coupons!

Pretty darn good if you ask me!

CVS - Cheap Coca Cola!

My husband LOVES Coca Cola so I knew that I couldn't miss out on this deal!

Coca Cola 12-pks -4/$13

- Used (4) $2 off coupons = $5

YIKES! CRV = $2.40

Snickers (2) - 2/$1

- Used $1/2 coupon = Free

TWIX (4) - 2/$1

- Used (2) $1/2 coupon = Free

Cotton Squares (2) - $2.99

They were packaged together... 100% more Free!

CVS Asprin 3-pk - $5.29

- Used FREE item coupon from CVS = FREE

*actually I noticed just now that they only took $3.96 off, so I need to go back and get $1.33 back!

My Total was $26.68

- Used $5/$25 purchase (from taking an online test at cvs.com about ready fill)

- Used coupons noted above

New total = $6.99 (before tax)

- Used $7.96 ECB from last week!

OOP = .43 (for taxes not covered)

AND I need to go get back $1.33 they didn't take off my receipt!

So after everything was said and done... My Grand Total was $6.09 that I owed!

OH YEAH and I got back $3 ECB for the Coca Cola I bought!

Raley's Shopping Trip

Raley's is where I did most of my shopping this week... here's what I did:

Earth Grains Bread (3)

- Used (3) .55 coupons = $1.95 each

Mary Ellen Jams (3)

- Used (3) .75 coupons - $1.75 each

Fillippo Extra Virgin Olive Oil (2)

- Used (2) $1 coupons from HERE = $2.99 each

Sourdough Baguettes from bakery (2) FREE

Poppy Cellars Wine - $2.99

Activia Yogurt (3)

- Used (3) $1 coupons = $1 each

I will send in the rebate for a FREE YoPlus Yogurt too!

Cantelope (2)

.10/lb = .97 for both!

*this deal ends today

Bananas - .79/lb = $3.88

Iceburg Lettuce - .57

White Onions (2) - .9/lb = $1.49

Jalapeno Pepper (1) - they didnt ring it up... FREE

Ginger (1) - they didn't ring it up... FREE

Red Bell Field Peppers (2) - $2.49/lb = $2.74

*these are a little different than regular bell peppers, but taste good and are cheaper!

My Grand Total after coupons was $36.14

My Grand Total in savings: $40.30 (56%)

*NOT SHOWN*

Reg. $1.59 - Sale: .79 each!

Bush Black Beans (2)

Bush Kidney Beans (2)

I am taking them back today because...

when I was in Safeway I found the MDA pamphlet full of coupons (they were at the register under the little counter where you can write your checks)

I FOUND: $1 off 5 cans of Bush beans, this means I will buy 5 cans at .59 each. I will be saving $1 per can, the Raley's sale is through 8/18.

We eat ALOT of black beans & kidney beans in salads, burritos, chili etc, so finding a good deal is VERY exciting to me!

Safeway Trip

Here is my Safeway shopping trip.... I was so happy that they had a good sale on meats, we needed to re-stock!

Chicken Breasts .99/lb x 10 lbs = $9.90

Pork Roast .99/lb x 7 lbs = $6.93

*these are packaged as one HUGE piece of meat!

TIP: Ask someone in the meat department to cut the meat into smaller portions if you need them that way. I've done this at Safeway and at Raley's I had them cut a bone out of a roast!

Mission Tortilla Chips - $1.88

Cheerios (4) - 4/$6

Will use (4) $1 coupons from HERE to make it 4/$2 (.50 each)

*My Safeway isn't taking internet printable coupons for a week because they have been receiving so many fraudulent coupons! My cashier wrote a note on my receipt that I have coupons for my Cheerios and next week I have to bring in my receipt and coupons and they will reimburse me.

Has anyone else come across this in their stores?

I paid $24 and will get back $4 next week.

The Coupon Exchange

I wanted to introduce you to The Coupon Exchange, a Free online coupon exchange site.

- Do you only use half the coupons in the inserts each week?

- Do you feel bad throwing away all those great coupons you just won't use?

- Do you wish that you could get more of one coupon without having to PAY for them!?

I know that I can say yes to all of the above!

The Coupon Exchange has come up with the solution! After registering you start submitting your coupons, it's that easy.

Once you have your coupons entered, you can start "shopping" the other coupons posted. When you find one you like you comment on it and that Coupon Holder ships it to you!

It's so easy! And the greatest part... it's FREE!

What's the catch? It's an exchange... so if you want coupons you have to share coupons... but hey it's a fair trade.

One of my favorite features is LOOKING FOR.... you can post a coupon that you are looking for and everyone helps you find it!

Check it out for yourself at The Coupon Exchange

Tuesday TIPS!

Okay so I am starting...

Tuesday TIPS!

The whole idea behind Living WithIn the Limits was to share deals and strategies to live, like it says, within, the limits of your time and your money! There is no reason to over spend, go in debt, etc.... I've been there... it's no fun!

So today's TIP:

Clear out unwanted stuff!

Ask every member of your family to pick three to five items they no longer use or needs. Post them for sale on a free local bulletin board like:

- CraigsList.com

- Kijiji.com

- Gazelle.com - good place for electronics

Sports equipment, baby clothing and accessories, furniture and gaming consoles typically sell well.

You can also donate your stuff to a charity and get a tax break; click on "Claim Your Deductions" and then "Valuation Guide for Material Donations" at goodwill.org to see how much you can deduct.

SAVE: $670 *the value of unused itmes in the average household - survey by Kijiji

We have personally have done all of these! We've posted items on CraigsList.com and Amazon.com, because we had a room full of AV equipment we made a couple THOUSAND dollars!!! And we are still making on average $100 a month for items still trickling out!

For more "garage sale" type items we donated them to Salvation Army, and will use that on our tax deductions, every little bit helps! AND we didn't have to sit around all day bartering with people in our front yard doing a garage sale!

It's a great way to keep life simple and uncluttered & pay a bill or two!

*Let me know if you sell anything - How much are you making from the items sitting in your garage?
