This week I came in at $62.92. Oops! I did have a little extra from last week but I’m still over budget by $4.26. This means I only have $35.74 to spend next week.

I went over because I didn’t plan very well. Usually I estimate prices before I go to the store. I was busy and didn’t do it. Plus Stan needed the pre-coooked chicken breasts for his lunch and sunflower seeds. I should have waited until next week but I threw them in the basket because I didn’t plan in advance. Oh well.

The Clearance Aisle at CVS

Do you check the Clearance aisle at CVS? Apparently it can be a goldmine. Jennifer emailed me about the awesome deal she got. Most things she got are CVS comparables to national brands but if you are not stuck to one brand this would be great.

clearance

Here is what she got:
• 11 bottles of conditioner
• 5 hair gel/spray items
• 2 facial cleansers
• 3 facial moisturizers

All the items were marked down about 90%. The total was $11.43 + tax. If you have Extra Bucks that you need to spend before they expire, using them on clearance items is a great way to get a bang for your buck when other deals aren’t available. Great find Jennifer. Thanks for sharing.

Now go check out your CVS clearance aisle!

Sorry, no picture. I can’t find the cables that connect the camera to the computer.  For Week #3 of spending $40/week, I came in at $48.87. I did go over but I had an extra $12.23 from weeks 1 and 2 so I’m still under budget by $3.36. I went over because I found a really good deal on a pork loin at Randalls that wasn’t on my list but I couldn’t pass up. Plus Stan’s favorite chips were on sale at Walmart and so I threw some of those in the basket too.

 

First Stop CVS

This is two transactions on two separate days.

·         5 Boxes of Soy Joy bars

·         1 Jumbo pack of Cottonelle toilet paper

·         2 Boxes of CVS brand Prilosec

·         2 Boxes of CVS Brand Claritin

Regularly priced this should have cost: $137.65

CVS Sale brought the total down to: $88.49

Then I used my coupons to bring the total down to: $64.99

Then I used my ECBs to bring the total down to: $.07

Finally I put $.07 on my Gift Card

RESULT: Spent $0 Out of Pocket and I earned $54.58 in Extra Bucks!

 

Second Stop Walgreens

I only did one transaction at Walgreens

·         2 Boxes of Garnier Nutrisse Haircolor (on clearance)

·         1 Box of Garnier 100% Color Haircolor (also on clearance)

·         2 Boxes Orville Redenbacher’s Popcorn

·         1 Box candy hearts (filler)

Regularly priced this should have cost: $33.01

Walgreens Coupons and Sale Prices brought the total down to: $13.53

Then I used my coupons to bring the total down to: $.28

Finally I put $.28 on my Gift Card

RESULT: Spent $0 Out of Pocket

 

Third Stop Walmart

I stopped at Walmart to buy some essentials that we were running low on:

·         1 Jar chicken bouillon

·         2 Cans Tomato soup

·         1 Family size bag of Fritos

I didn’t use any coupons

RESULT: Spent $6.50

 

 Fourth Stop Randalls (Safeway)

I stopped at Randalls to buy some things that were on sale:

·         4 Bags Goldfish crackers

Regularly priced this should have cost: $46.35

Randalls Card Sale Prices brought the total down to: $33.84

Then I used my coupons to bring the total down to: $26.96

RESULT: Spent $26.96

 

 Fifth Stop Sun Harvest

I had some extra time on Saturday so I decided to try out a local market my friend, Jan recommended. She told me they have really good prices on produce. Boy was she right! It’s a little out of my way but hopefully I can plan a trip into my weekend activities. Here’s what I got:

·         1 5lb bag of Russet potatoes

·         1 bag of carrots

·         3 yellow onions

·         4 Roma tomatoes

·         1 bunch of green onions

Their receipt doesn’t show how much I saved and I didn’t write anything down in the store (I will next time) so I’m not sure how much I saved. But my total was $4.22 and then they gave me an extra $.05 off for bringing my own bag.

RESULT: Spent $4.17

 

Final Stop HEB

My last stop was at our local grocery store to buy the groceries for the menu I planned for the week. After going to all the other stores, I didn’t have much left to buy!

·         1 Box chicken broth

·         1 can Mexican style stewed tomatos

·         2 packages of lunch meat

·         2 jalapenos

·         1 package of corn tortillas

·         1 bunch of lettuce

·         1 bag of Monterrey Jack cheese

I used $2.10 in coupons

RESULT: Spent $11.24

 

Stay tuned for tomorrow’s post: Menu Monday where I’ll share what we’re eating this week.

RESULT: Spent $4.61

 

Final Stop HEB

My last stop was at our local grocery store to buy the groceries for the menu I planned for the week:

·         Light Sour Cream

·              2 bags sunflower seeds

·              1 bag raw spinach

·              1 yellow onion

·              1 loaf of French bread

·              1 bunch of cilantro

·              1 package of Italian sausage

·              1 package of flour tortillas

I didn’t have any coupons.

RESULT: Spent $14.99

 

Stay tuned for tomorrow’s post: Menu Monday where I’ll share what we’re eating this week.
