Using Up Those Kraft Q's...

A couple weeks back, I bought five copies of the August issue of the All You magazine. This issue had great coupons to buy 3 Kraft products and get one free. They expire on 9/30, so I've been trying to slowly use them up before then. I've bought tons of Kool Aid (qualifies as the 3 Kraft items and is super cheap), which I'll see if my friend wants and if not, they'll go to the local food pantry.
ShopRite - did this over two transactions at two different stores
  • 7 cans Mighty Dog food $0.66 each, used seven freebie coupons from 8/10 SS (thanks TempestMargaret!) = FREE
  • Purina Healthful Life cat food $1.75, used freebie coupon from 6/8 RP (thanks again TempestMargaret!)= FREE
  • 6 boxes Barilla pasta $0.88 each
  • Millions of Kool Aid packages (just kidding, actually bought 36) $0.29 each at one store, $0.25 at the other = $9.72
  • Here are the freebie items I got for using the freebie Q's from the All You magazine: 3 Crystal Lites ($3.99 each), 4 packages Kraft Singles cheese ($3.49 each), 3 Kraft dressings ($2.99 each) and 2 boxes Wheat Thins ($3.29 each) - that's $41.48 worth of food and I only paid $9.72 (price of Kool Aid) - not too shabby!
  • 4 Bic Comfort Advance razors $2.99 each, used $3 coupon (9/14 SS) = FREE
  • 1 Bic Soleil razor $2.99, used $3 coupon (9/14 SS) = FREE *I know I have more of these coupons but they somehow disappeared on me in the store. I left them in my coupon organizer so I'm going to go back tomorrow for more free razors. :)
  • Mission tortillas $2.50 (not on sale but I needed these)
  • Used a $3 catalina and got $0.15 bag discount
  • Total was $15.31

Walgreens

  • 2 tubes Colgate Max Fresh toothpaste $2.99, used $2 coupon from circular (limit 2 of same item, scans twice so took off $4) and two $1 coupons = FREE

Light Sunday

DBF's mom got me these squirrel reusable bags - inn't they cute?!? They reminded her of my favorite commercial and thought I'd get a kick out of them. :) I just had to put them to good use at A&P:

  • Sargento deli cheese $2.19 and used $0.50 coupon (doubled to $1) 6/22 RP = $1.19
  • 9 packages of Kool Aid 3 for $0.99 = $2.97
  • 2 packages of Wheat Thins = FREE w/Kraft coupon from August All You magazine (Issue 8, expires 9/30)
  • Oscar Mayer hot dogs = FREE w/Kraft coupon
  • Total (after bag discount) was $2.80

The only other thing I bought today was 5 papers - this was the lightest hounding Sunday I've had in ages!
