My Pantry is FULL!

Today was all about food! Here's how it went:

Petsmart

• 6 cans Mighty Dog food (to donate) $0.59 each, used 5 freebie coupons (8/10 SS) = FREE
• Purina cat treats $1.69, used freebie coupon (8/3 RP) = FREE
• Nutro cat food $8.99, used freebie coupon I got in the mail from doing previous rebate = FREE
• The cashier was being a pain and put the Mighty Dog's in as the regular price ($0.62 each) instead of sale price, so he wouldn't take my 6th coupon. Sigh. My total was $1.44 ($1 tax). Not bad for all this pet food!

CVS - bought 6 papers, $12, used $11.58 ECB and paid $0.42 cash

Rite Aid - best score was all those coupon booklets! They had a huge stack in my store so I lightened their load considerably. Now I have oodles of $5 Be Fine coupons to use before the end of the week! I wonder how many I can put to good use...

• Be Fine single pack $1.99, used $5 Be Fine coupon from booklet = $3.01 profit
• Snickers bar $0.85
• 2 Hellmann's mayo $1.99 each, used $1 off 2 coupon (8/17 RP) = $2.98 (counts towards SCR #133, spend $15 on Unilever food, get $5 SCR)
• Total was $1.02

DBF bought:

• Be Fine single pack $1.99, used $5 Be Fine coupon from booklet = $3.01 profit
• 6 Knorr sides $0.99 each, used three $0.75 off 2 coupons (8/17 RP) = $3.69 (counts towards SCR #133, spend $15 on Unilever food, get $5 SCR)
• Total was $0.82

2nd Transaction - putting the Be Fine Q to good use! Went back to above store to do another Be Fine deal and the very same cashier from the morning wouldn't accept the very same Be Fine coupon she accepted in the morning without a problem. Ugh, so off to another store we went:

• Be Fine single pack $1.99, used $5 Be Fine coupon from booklet = $3.01 profit
• Crest toothpaste $2.99, used $1 coupon (8/3 P&G) and will get back $2.99 SCR #75 = $1 profit

DBF bought:

Walgreens - *Note - Pantene Expressions/Restoratives are NOT part of the 2 for $8 sale this week. The sale is for 12.6 oz bottles - these bottles are 13 oz. Darn!
