My Farm Fresh Mega Event Shopping Trip 03/11

I made a late trip to Farm Fresh for their Mega Coupon Event this morning.  I was disappointed (but not surprised) to find the Eight o’clock ground coffee gone.  I’m hoping there will be truck in by Tuesday, so I can pick up a couple of bags of cheap coffee.

I was excited this morning to see a $2 off Caribou K-cups coupon in the SmartSource insert.  However, I overlooked that the coupon was DND in my haste to hit the store.  I ended up paying more that I had intended since my coupon didn’t double.

Here is my little haul:

1 FF Burger Buns $1.19
1 FF Hotdog buns $1.19
1 Baby Carrots $1.69
1 Asparagus $1.60
1 Caribou K cups $6.99
2 Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls $0.60
1 Garlic Knots $0.50
2 Alexia Fries $1.98
2 Purina One Beyond FREE
1 Waggin Tail Treats FREE
1 Colgate Toothpaste FREE
2 Goody’s Powder FREE
2 BC Powder FREE
2 Philadelphia Indulgence ($3 – $1.50/1 old printable) FREE
1 Seventh Generation Dish Soap ($2.99-$2/1 from Target event) FREE
1 Seventh Generation Spray ($3.89-$2/1 from Target event) FREE

Total Paid: $16.04 -bit higher than intended due to coupon not doubling plus I bought a few dinner items
Total Saved: $48.58
77% savings

How did you do?

    Dana – amazingly there was still plenty of coffee at Kempsville at 3:30. I was also surprised to get glade and garlic rolls that late. Thanks for the matchups!

      I went to a Target Dr. Seuss event a couple weeks ago. In the kids goodie bags was a manufacture coupon for Seventh Generation.

    I went to FF yesterday afternoon only to pick up some fruit and parmesan cheese. There was a tearpad coupon for $2.00 off Kraft parmesan cheese (costs $3.99) when you buy any Johnsonville italian sausage which costs $3.99, so that was a good unexpeted deal for me!
