Thanks to Lori

at Trying to Save Alot for pointing out this great Nature Valley deal at Kroger. I stopped in at a different Kroger [haven't been here in quite some time] after my trip to Walgreens as it happens to be next door. Oh, and I hate trying to get out of that Walgreens due to the light being right there and my needing to make a left turn. I must say, this Kroger is a very nice store. My regular store is great, too.

I had to go to Walgreens today as my $8.00 in RR were expiring. Two weeks is just not enough time for me. Truth be told, if they took longer to expire it would take longer to motivate me to go and I still would be rushing to try to roll them before they expire. {sigh}

I am not a morning person. I tend to stay up late because I like the quiet of the nighttime. Did you know Fox has Star Trek: The Next Generation on at 11:00 pm every week night? I love this Star Trek! And on the weekends it is Legend of the Seeker. This reminds me of Hercules and Xena: Warrior Princess. I miss those shows. I love Greek mythology.

You may be asking yourself: what does any of this have to do with leaving the house and expiring RR’s? Nothing, really. I just thought I would share.

all I bought was junk

I made my second trip to Kroger. This time I drove to Roanoke, where Walgreens lives, and stopped at one of their Krogers. I was so very excited to find the Edward’s pie singles were part of the ‘buy 10 participating items save $5 instantly at checkout’ deal. Almost made it worth having to get dressed and go out amongst the peoples. Oh, and before you think all I bought was junk, well, I did. My purpose for going was for the Cherry Coke, Cheez-its, and Milk; everything else was just fortuitous.

Eat your heart out Walmart

Kroger had ALL the different Edward’s pie singles. So, not only did I pay LESS at Kroger, I was able to get VARIETY! Woo Hoo! DH loves variety. I bought 7 DIFFERENT kinds of pie! It is a good thing I do not eat pie or else I would have issues.

KROGER:

not pictured: 3 Cherry Coke 12-pks

2 Healthy Choice frozen entrees $2.47

I am traveling backwards

I shopped Walgreens first. Thanks so much to Andrea @ Mommy Snacks. I printed her Walgreens Snack and used that as my guide. And I highly recommend having a calculator with you.

** 87% Savings **

A couple of things to note:

1. Trident Layers coupon states 1 coupon per customer. The site will allow you to print this multiple times, but the coupon states it is fraud to use more than one coupon. Your name prints on the coupon, too.
2. I try my best to list where I find my coupons, but do not always remember where I found something. I highly recommend joining A Full Cup. They have a searchable coupon database.

I am tired.

I have about 2 months worth of coupons (maybe 3) that I have yet to organize in some manner in which I can easily find what I need. It is a wonder I save any money and I have even stopped buying multiple papers. At least until I either see some great coupons demanding multiple purchases or I actually get organized. Sigh. There, I have confessed my sins. I will say my 3 Hail Mary’s and an Act of Contrition. Nanny would be so proud!

I have been dragging my feet in getting to the stores lately. Last week I didn’t get over to CVS until Friday. Friday! What is up with that? This meant I missed the freebie Vaseline lotion, but I really don’t need any more lotion anyway. I did want to take advantage of the Coke/Monsters vs. Aliens deal, though. I redeemed some mycokerewards points for two free 12-packs of Coke, but these are no longer downloads and it appears mine are in process still. I am not sure how I feel about this. So, after waiting all week with no arrival of my coupons I decided I would bite the bullet and use up some ECBs. This turned out okay, since I have Megan’s from when I visited her last and some were getting set to expire.

But I have gotten off track here. I did manage to get to CVS today, but that was due to a $5 off $25 coupon that was expiring. I hate when I let these lapse. I messed up my transaction and will need to return later in the week, but I still did okay.

Now, Kroger was another story. This was the first time I needed to get a filler, not once, but twice! I was a bit stunned, too.

Transaction #1

5 Grands Jr 99¢ each
1 75¢/3 blinkie & 1 30¢/2 IP  (see sidebar) doubled

The Pillsbury catalina did not print for either transaction so I had to go over to customer service. Of course, it was not until I returned home that I realized I told them the incorrect amount for the catalina. But, I never received my catalina for Pillsbury biscuits bought earlier in this deal, so it ended up a wash. Otherwise, I would go back and have this corrected. I ended up with a $6.00 gift card bringing my total to a profit of $1.17 (including tax paid).

I need to make a second trip although I am being lazy and really do not want to leave the house.  Must… get… motivated.  Here is my quick trip yesterday to a [gasp] different Kroger.  Apparently no one wants to be healthy in Franklin County, so I had to check out one of the Krogers in Roanoke.  I forgot about my two $3.50 catalinas from last week and apparently miscounted my granola bars or else this would have been a really cheap trip!
