My Farm Fresh Trip

in Farm Fresh Weekly Ads, My Shopping Trip

Disclosure: This post may contain an affiliate link.

My total today did end up being rather high, but I was expecting that to a degree.  Some items are for Freezer Cooking day.
I picked up a clearance bottle of Herbal Essence conditioner for $2 used $1/1 coupon=FREE. I remembered that I had a coupon for Herbal Essence Buy 1 shampoo, conditioner or styling products, get 1 styling products free, so I grabbed a bottle of spray gel @ $3.69.  The cashier should have taken off $3.69, but instead he took off $2.  I was bagging groceries and didn’t realize it until I got home. There’s not really anything I can do about it now.
Anyways, see my matchup here
Milk
2 bread
Asparagus
Bananas
Strawberries
1 utz tortilla chips=$2
1 hunts tomato sauce-need for chili=$1.79!!
Herbal essence conditioner
Herbal essence gel
2 I can’t believe it’s not butter $1.99-$1/1 printable (no longer available)=FREE

3 Warm Delights=2 @ $1.88, 1 @ $1.67 (sale?)

    Which one did you go to? I might go look for some clearance Herbal Essences too, since I have the coupon expiring today.

    Didn't do too badly here-an $82.78 trip for $16.55. Only issue I had was the oil. The coupon in the store flier only gave me 50 cents off–not even the $1 listd. I caught it though. It really should only give you $1 off, not $2 like match up websites are reporting–since it begins with a 9, it won't double tdoay. BUT the cust service lady insisted on giving me a full $1.50 back, insisting it should have doubled today. Otherwise, all deals, etc worked just fine.

    Hope you find it at Military Heather!

    Great trip Stace! Glad you caught the oil. Kids and bagging my own groceries doesn't work out well. I just listened and counted the beeps to make sure they didn't miss a coupon.

    I always feel bad when they give me more money back than I was owed. Although it does kind of make up for having to take the time to have the problem corrected. It's nice to know you were given such good customer service!

    I didn't find it, but I did get:

    1 milk
    2 Trop50
    1 free eggs
    2 Maruchan Yakisoba (or whatever they're called)
    1 Birdseye veggie

    and paid $4.80 which was 66% savings.
