My Harris Teeter & Farm Fresh Shopping Trips 11/02

in Farm Fresh Weekly Ads, Harris Teeter Weekly Ad, My Shopping Trip

Here is my mini Farm Fresh trip.  I do love only paying tax!  Still no word on if we will get $2 Doubles this weekend.

4 Lipton Naturals FREE
2 TGI Fridays for One FREE

Total Paid $0.10
Total Saved $8.00

 

I also went to Harris Teeter for Super Doubles.  They were already sold out of some products I wanted by 7:45am 🙁

My coupons are a mess and I ran out of ink last night, so I was forced to make due with the coupons I had.  I only ended up using 17 – sad, I know.  Even though I spent a bit more than I would have preferred – I got FREE milk.  That made my day!

4 Goldfish $1.20 – $1/2 from Pebble cereal box = $0.78
5 Green giant veggies $2.78
1 Bounce Dryer Bar $0.99
2 Campbell’s Kettle Soup $1.78
1 Grande Tortilla Chips $0.50
2 McCain Purely Potatoes $3.10
1 Coffee-mate creamer $0.67
1 Fruitables $1.50
2 Kettle Chips FREE
2 Revlon nail clippers FREE
3 Smart Balance Milk FREE (score!)

Total Paid $12.99
Total Saved $57.18

How did you do?

    I live by the Hanbury store. I searched & could not find the nail clippers. Where were they located?

      Look on the back side of the displays at the checkout lanes (so you’re facing away from the registers) . I had to checked a few before I found them.

    I went before going to work at 7. I had everything organized and my back-up coupons. I spent $35 and got $90 worth of groceries (but probably worth more because some of them were already on sale.) I felt super proud of myself and even took a picture and posted it on FB.

    I appreciate you so much – your match-ups are a huge blessing. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

    Went for just a few things…they were sold out of milk, butter and next two items., walked out DONE with Harris Teeter. If a store cannot stay stocked and not follow their own rules about number of like items allowed, super doubles isn’t worth it for me! Glad you all had better luck, because I was one cranky gal yesterday! haha

      Some stores seem to do a better job of restocking.

      I went back yesterday and they had the butter and still some milk. I was able to get 2 fat free and that left about 4 but I was reaching all the way into the back.

      Hanbury in Chesapeake did have displays with some of the free stuff. I was happy to find stacks of Wolfgang pasta sauce in the center aisle.

      I agree that it is completely frustrating when they are out of stock of the good deals. You may want to chat with your local store manager to see when their trucks come in and find out how they are planning to keep up with the demand for the items

    This is the second time I went at 6:30 am on the first day. I always left frustrated too. Now I can use the best coupons. After that, I’m not as frustrated when I go back.
