Kroger -- 88% Savings

I've been to Kroger more this past week than I've ever been before.  The deals, particularly the changing clearance items have been pulling me back in.  Mainly the Sobe water, though!  Jimmy goes through 2-3 a day, and we don't want it to end like the Crystal Light episode.

My out of pocket before tax was $6.02.  And that, my friend, is why I keep going back!

The Dentastix were 2/$5 then I used four $2 off coupons making each bag .50 cents.  The bigger your dogs, the fewer treats in the bag, so the more expensive.

The Stride was clearanced to .60 cents then I used the buy one Stride, get Stride Shift free.

I had been holding on to a Kroger coupon for $5/2 Mirra products for a few months now, so used them for two sponges.

My coupon and Kroger savings was $44.49.

Can you imagine paying $50 for everything pictured above?  I heart coupons! :)

60% Savings at Kroger

I'll be honest, I almost didn't go back to Kroger, but I'm glad I did decide to.  I had dragged Jimmy out to Kroger earlier this week; it was an epic failure.  Okay, perhaps not epic, but they were wiped out of everything.  Today, however, was better.  It was still slim pickings on the Sobe Lifewaters (and I saw a woman with at least 30 in her cart--do they not put customer limits on these things during sales?), but I was able to get 8.

Here's what I did:

I also needed to get some more Smart Ones dinners which were on sale for $1.88 each, and I had a $4 off when you purchase 10 coupon that I got off their website a few weeks ago.

The Tide Stain Release was clearanced to $3.79 and I used the $3 off from the 08/01 P&G making it .79 cents!  That's the right price to pay to try a new product!

I had loaded a .60 cent off coupon from Kroger.com to use off the $1 A&W Root Beer.  I foresee cheap root beer floats in my future. :)

The Crystal Light Pure Fitness was 2/$5 and I used two $2 off coupons from Vocal Point

The pastry shells were clearanced to $3.79 and I have high hopes of making something wonderful with them.

8 Sobe Lifewaters at $1.09 each minus $4 for buying 8 in their sale, used 3 B1G1 free coupons from Sobe.com  (I was supposed to buy 10 to get $2 off from my Kroger coupon, but didn't read my list even though I actually made one.)

2 Gold Peak Teas (yum!) at 1.00 each, and used a Kroger coupon for $1/2

3 Fuze at 1.00 each, Kroger coupon for $1/3

4 Larabars at 4/$5, used .75 cents/3 from Coupons.com

2 Pure Protein bars 1.49 each, Kroger coupon for $1/2

Total Before Tax $30.09, Total Savings $45.14

I actually saved more than I should have as the cashier rang each Sobe coupon as 1.89 off, the maximum value of the coupon than 1.09, but she wasn't interested in listening to what I was saying.

Do I dare point out that I went shopping alone this time and managed to save more money?  Hmmm.
