Wednesday's Shopping

I forgot to post about my day out shopping on Wednesday.

First it was up to Rite-Aid.  I gathered my goodies and then whipped open my purse to get my coupons, wellness card and wallet and here is what I found.....

No wallet!
I never put it back in my purse before leaving the house.
Duh!

So I gave the cashier my goodies for safekeeping and hiked back home to retrieve my wallet, being very careful not to speed since my driver's license was in said wallet at home.
Double Duh!!

Wallet found and back to Rite-Aid to check-out......


2 x Dove Men's Body Wash on sale=$8.00
2 x CeraVe lotion BOGO50% off=$7.93
2 x Gillette Men's Body Wash on clearance=$5.28
SubTotal....$21.21

Coupons Used
2 x $1/1 Dove Men's Body Wash ManuQ=$2.00
2 x $1/1 Dove Men's item VideoValuesQ=$2.00
1 x $7/2 CeraVe ManuQ=$7.00
1 x $1/2 Gillette Deo or Body Wash ManuQ=$1.00
Coupon Total.....$12.00

$21.21-$12.00=$9.21

But here is what happened instead......

Coupons Used
2 x $1/1 Dove Men's Body Wash ManuQ=$2.00
2 x $1/1 Dove Men's item VideoValuesQ=$2.00
1 x $7/2 CeraVe ManuQ=$7.00
1 x $1/2 Gillette Deo or Body Wash ManuQ=$1.00
1 x $1 Load2CardQ(I think it was for the Gillette products?)=$1.00
Coupon Total.....$13.00

$21.21-$13.00=$8.21
I used $8 in +Up Rewards and paid .21¢ OOP.
I received $6 in new +Up Rewards($2 wyb2 Dove, $3 wyb2 CeraVe, $1 wyb2 Gillette).

I hadn't planned on buying the CeraVe but while cruising the aisles I saw a "coupon fairy" had left their $7/2 CeraVe ManQ on the shelf so why not seeing as it was a $2.07 moneymaker and helped cover some of the cost for the other 4 items.  8-))

Then it was off to the local grocery stores-the Shurfine affiliate market and Weis Markets.

I bought a bag o' salad and tomatoes on the vine at Shurfine for $4.58.
I spent a whopping $19.04 at Weis for a box of cornstarch, a bag of frozen chicken strips, a lb. of ground chicken, 1.39 lbs. of ground beef(both meats with discount stickers),  a head of iceberg and leaf lettuces, a clamshell of fancy greens and 8 oz. of sliced mushrooms both with 50% discount stickers.  Savings rate of 45% on the Weis order.
Total this week for grocery spending......$23.62.
Add in my .21¢ spent at Rite-Aid and we are out $23.83 spending for Wednesday.

Sluggy

  2. The end of an era is drawing to a close. I'm going to miss RA.
    And I'm glad that you found said wallet.
