I selected the cheapest mascara they had included with the deal, $4.99

2/$2.49, or $1.25 each

TOTAL SPENT: $2.49 (plus tax...I have seemed to misplace my receipt!)

And lastly, Target:

$1.00 coupon

$2.50 coupon here

$6.49

General Mills Cereal Cup: $1.00

$1.00 Target coupon here

No coupon, but this was 10% off and I use this every day, so a deal is a deal!

Ziploc Bags: $1.99

BOGO coupon from 8/30 newspaper

2/$1.99, or $1 each

I did not take advantage of the Speical K deal because the selection at our Target was very lacking-and we truly have enough snacks!

TOTAL: $18.83, I saved $19.92!

Stash:

• 
  
  Different snacks - cookies & chips.  I need to resist the good deals - we are going to end up gaining so much weight!
• 
  
  3 Baby wash (one that I uncovered last night while sorting through a bin-o-stuff, one from previous run!)
• 
  
  2 packs of diapers (plus, we have a slight stockpile previously)
• 
  
  2 mascara
• 
  
  2 soap (one from previous Target run)
• 
  
  4 bags of Skittles.  We are going on vacation tomorrow, I'm bringing a pack on the plane for Henry.  An excellent distraction tool.

$75 a Week Grocery Challenge:

I'm only counting the actual food, so...

• $21.43 left.  I want to hit up Cash Wise tonight before we leave to take advantage of some of the shelf/freezer deals.

Econo Foods Deals

 

At Econo, there are a couple good buys:

• Keebler Fudge Shoppee Cookies: BOGO - $1/2 coupon here = cheap cookies!  Henry will be thrilled! :)
• Pringles (same deal at ShopKo): 2/$3 - $1/2 coupon (from 8/30 newspaper) = $2/2
  

ShopKo Deals

In the ShopKo ad I found at least one goody:

• Covergirl cosmetics: BOGO - $2.50 coupon, I got this coupon a while back and it expires today!
• Bounce Dryer Bar: $3.99 - $1.00 coupon from 8/30 paper = $2.99, this may be cheaper at Target because I also have a $1.50 Target coupon...not sure on the price at Target.
• Tide: $6.99 - $1.00 coupon from 8/30 paper = $5.99, again, there may be a better deal at Target on a larger size on sale for $10.99.  We aren't yet in desperate need of laundry soap, so I just might wait for a better bargain.
