I know some of you were looking for updated HT deals earlier, but I had to hit my local store before all the freebies were gone again.  I was happy with what I walked away with today.  I split 1 glass plus into a separate transaction since they are B1G1.

I really wanted the Gillette Body Wash but I guess I should be happy there were about 6 or so Old Spice left on the shelf.  I choose those fillers to make hubby happy 🙂

Farm Fresh
Don’t judge me with all the ice cream in the picture. I just couldn’t say no and we have plenty of money in the grocery budget. I split the Ice Cream promo (2 lil’ drum, 1 Dibs, and 1 cup) into 2 transactions so I could use the 1st $4 CAT towards the 2nd Ice cream promo. One flavor of lil’ drums rang up wrong so I ended up with 2 free and 1 at the difference (purchased 3 in 2 transactions).
See my matchups HERE
Transaction 1
1 cup=$0.25
1 dibs=$1.99
2 lil’ drums=3.98 (should have been)

1 dibs $1.99
1 ice cream cup=$0.25
2 Crystal Light Pure fitness: $2.89 each-$1/1 printable (gone)=$1.78
Used $4 CAT from transaction 1

Total Paid: $9.93
Total Saved: $40.36-coupons
Still have $4 CAT for next week
Total paid is After $12.67 refund for Lil’ drums ringing up wrong-I’m okay with having to walk back in for that!

    how did you get so much for free I don't get it. I have the coupons for the wac mac and most of that stuff but I don't understand how you got so much for free.

    LOL me either.. I bought the dan-o-nino at FF but it wasn't free.. must be cheaper at Harris Teeter… I only saved $20.20 today.. 🙁 but I needed stuff like yeast (no coupon) and fruit (no coupon). I did use my $2 off pork coupon 🙂

    I had a lot of the coupons from my matchups and for most of them I had multiples. The wacky mac is actually free at Harris Teeter and Farm fresh this week with the coupon. If you have specific questions on anything Cassie-Lyn just leave a comment or shoot me an email. I'm happy to help!

    Yes, Little World, the Dan-o-nino are cheaper at HT beause they are regular price $2.29 and my coupon is for $1.50/1 so I got for free. I love Super Doubles!

    Saving $20 is still good! It's the non-coupon items that we need such as your fruit that mess with an otherwise good savings percentage. You see that in some of my FF trips that I post. Milk, veggies, bread, etc make a free or cheap trip expensive.

    I spent 35 and saved 25 at farm fresh, 45%, and received 3 catalinas. Had to get at least 10$ in essentials (milk, bread, fruit) that I didn't have coupons for, so these things also messed with my percentages. I was happy I got 3 kraft melt downs for free with my $1 coupons I got from a tides games yesterday. 🙂 I also plan to go to harris teeter later on to see what's left.

    I am not sure if this is a valid deal yet. It has been reported elsewhere that people are getting $5 off instantly when they buy 5 boxes of kellogg's cereal. This has caused me to formulate this plan. 5 boxes of cinnabon cereal x 2.49=12.46. In the upcoming rp there is a 1/1 cinnabon q. doubled it takes off 4 making it 8.46. there is also the 1.50/3 q. douled it makes if 5.46. IF the 5 comes off automatically, it makes if .46 for 5 boxes of cereal. I am hoping this works. I don't know if it will or not but I am probably going to try tomorrow. I will post again if it does. Thank you for all your hard work.

    Shane:

    You had a great trip-we were planning on going to the Tides game Tuesday but the kids had attitude. Now, not only did we miss the cheap hotdogs but free cheese as well! Hope you all had a great time!

    Julie,

    That would be a great deal if $5 does come off automatically! The $1.50/3 is from 05/23 RP and there's a $1.25/3 in the 06/27 RP insert. The $1/1 mentioned above from the 06/27 RP insert for those of you searching for the Q's. Thanks for the heads up!

    The cereal deal did and didn't work. They had the signs up but the money didn't come off automatically. I had to go back and get it. They didn't have a problem refunding the money though. When I went to get the cereal it was almost gone! My husband who was with me made the comment, "your people were here." lol

    Err, I bet it's all gone now! I completely forgot when I went up on Friday night. Maybe they'll restock

    I'm down to 10 boxes of cereal, so I'm starting to feel a little panicky. I donated too many awhile ago.
