I was surprised at the lack of Farm Fresh and Harris Teeter shoppers this morning.  Maybe everyone is still recovering from Spring Break.

My first trip was to Farm Fresh.  Everything should be on list 1 and list 2 matchups except for the Jose Ole and Tide Detergent.  I had an old $2/1 Jose Ole printable making each box just $0.99 and a $2/1 Tide mailer coupon giving me $1.99 detergent.  Also, I have the Wholly Guac on my matchups, but I got the salsa free after the same coupon.  We just prefer salsa.

FREE salsa, dog treats, cat treats & Kashi cereal bars.

Total Paid: $15.10
Total Saved: $56.32
80%

My next trip was to Harris Teeter where I only used a few coupons.  Again, all the matchups are on list 1 or list 2.  I’m loving all the coffee sales recently!  FREE butter and Neutrogena.

Total Paid: $10.33
Total Saved: $46.68

How was your shopping trips?

Today was not a good day for shopping.  Well, it was but I was way off my game.  I wasn’t thinking and bought the pop tarts at Harris Teeter instead of Farm Fresh (BIG mistake).  THEN I didn’t find my 2nd Gold Peak Tea coupon until I came home from shopping.  I figure my carelessness cost me about $2.50 today.  On the plus side, my husband has a ton of drinks for work now.  We also refill the empty Powerade bottles, so that should last us awhile.

I just have a picture of my shopping bags from Farm Fresh.  Most of my purchases were staying in the garage, so I didn’t want to unload them onto the table then have to carry everything back to the garage fridge.

1 Gold Peak Tea = FREE
9 Powerade = $9
10 Fuze = FREE
2 Simply Orange Juice = $2
2 Hanover Pretzel = $1
2 Trident Gum = FREE
2 belVita = $1.98

How did you do?

I’ve missed Harris Teeter Triples!  It was so nice to get a little bit extra for our coupons valued at $0.99 or less.  I was unable to get the kids moving fast enough this morning, so I didn’t make it to HT until 7:30 (after my oldest got on the bus).  There were several items already sold out, but I’m hopeful they will restock.  I want to get my hands on a few more of those free and cheap items.

I believe all my purchases are included in the matchups except for the Quaker Oatmeal Cookies and Quaker Stila.  My 03/25/12 RP came in the mail yesterday and included a $0.55 coupon (I think that was the value) for each product.

2 Tasters Choice instant = FREE
2 Franks Hot sauce = FREE
2 Ricola = FREE
2 Margaret Holmes = FREE
2 Silk almondmilk singles = FREE
1 Quaker Stila = FREE

I do plan to go back to Harris Teeter once or twice more to see what has been restocked.  I also need to pick up eVIC butter and bread.  Since I’m under budget for the month, I’m planning a trip to Trader Joe’s this week as well.

How did you do?

My Farm Fresh & Harris Teeter shopping trips aren’t terribly exciting again this week.  I bought veggies, milk, coffee creamer, eggs and a few other odds and ends. I have most of what I need for meals, but I will put to use a few of today’s purchases.

I’ll use the eggs and cheese for quiche one night.  I already have the pie crusts from a Bloom sale and cooked bacon in the freezer.  I’m also making Crock Pot Chicken later this week and will use some of the grapes in Chicken salad.   The asparagus will go with dinner one night this week as well.  Although my trip looks a bit odd, it will provide fillers to help feed us for the next week.

I’m heading out toward Trader Joe’s this weekend, so I’ll get the rest of our fresh fruit for the week there.  Other than that, I’m done shopping.

Farm Fresh:

Milk $3.39 – $1/1 store peelie = $2.39
Silk Protein Milk $2.89 – $1/1 store peelie + $1/1 Silk printable = FREE
