Here’s a list of how I did during my 2 shopping trips today…
Kroger
1 Pack Mushroom=$1.50
1 Bag Onions=$1
Prices below reflect $0.50 discount for purchasing 10 participating items 
2 Capri Sun: $1.49 each-$1/2 printable=$1.98
2 Toaster Strudel: $1.49 each-$1/1 printable X2=$0.98
1 Edy’s Ice Cream: $2.49-$1/1 01/31 SS=$1.49
3 Tubs Butter: $0.99 each-$1/1 printable X3=FREE
1 Stick Butter: $0.99-$1/1 printable=FREE
6 Kraft Block Cheese: $0.99 each-$1/2 printable X3=$2.94
8 Kraft Shredded Cheese: $0.99 each-$1/2 printable X2=$5.92 (**see note below**)
3 Can Hunts Tomatoes: $0.49 each-$0.45/3 from insert=$0.57
3 Can Ro-Tel Tomatoes: $0.42 each-$0.30 from insert X3=($0.54)
1 Goldfish: $0.88 (no coupon)
Total Spent $17.31
Total Saved $30.70 (including coupons, $15.70, and $5 off promotion X3)
Factoring in sale prices the receipt says I saved $75.08
Total should have been $15.31
**This is a classic, KNOW YOUR STORES COUPON POLICY !!  I haven’t shopped at Kroger in forever. I went on the assumption that there wasn’t a coupon limit since the ad said “Double coupons everyday unlimited.”  I know I should have asked but with 2 kids I was in a hurry.  There is a limit of 4 Like coupons per transaction!  The total # of coupons is unlimited.  The cashier allowed me to use 5 of the 7 Kraft coupons so I missed out on $2.  I would have done the deal differently had a known ahead of time.    
Farm Fresh
4 Boxes Cheerios: $1.98 each-$1/1 printable=FREE (2 transactions)
2 Double Stuff Oreas: $3.39 each-Free facebook coupon=FREE
1 Smart Taste Pasta: $1.49-$0.75/1 from insert=FREE
1 Ritz Crackerful: $2.99-$1/1 from insert=$0.99
2 All Detergents:$ 3.49 each-$1/1 printable X2=$2.98

I’m happy with that savings 🙂
