I went to Target earlier this week and I brought $65 in free Target gift cards with me when I went. One of these was gotten from cashing in some credit card points and the others(in $5 and/or $10 increments)were free incentives from purchasing various items at Target in past trips.
They have a "Spend $50 on food/beverage, Get a $10 Target Gift Card" coupon this week.
There were a few things I needed this week(cream cheese, rolls and eggs for Easter)so I figured I'd do the bulk of my grocery shopping this week at Target because nothing beats shopping for free! lolz
I got--
24 Hawaiian rolls=$5.49
12 Hawaiian rolls=$3.00
1 bag blue tortilla chips=$2.79
1 box Whole Earth sweetener=$3.19
1 tomato=$1.29(needed this for lunch that day)
4 dozen eggs=$2.00
1 bag salad=$1.49*Had a 50¢ sticker which the cashier missed-I'll go back at a later date to get that .50¢ back*
4 boxes cream cheese=$5.96
3 bags Starbucks coffee=$17.97
4 6-packs diet Pepsi bottles=$12.00
Before Qs this subtotaled....$55.18
I had a $1.50/1 ManuQ for the Whole Earth and a $3/2 ManuQ for the Starbucks coffee so $4.50 off makes my total $50.68.
I earned the $10 Target gift card on all this.
I also bought.......
4 boxes of Q-tips on sale $2.99=$11.96 Q-tips is one of the few items we are "brand loyal" about.
Earning the $5 Target gift card for these makes them $1.74 per box. Even without using Qs that's a good price. 8-)
Everything bought--
$55.18 + $11.96 + .12¢ tax=$62.76 OOP.
I paid with $62.76 of Target free gift cards so Zero OOP for all.
I earned back a $10 gift card(for spending $50 on food/beverages)and a $5 gift card(for buying 4 Qtips).
I sent for a free $5 Starbucks e-gift card when I got home HERE(incentive for buying 3 Starbucks coffee bags in one trip). I'll probably give this to the nephew for his upcoming birthday since I don't "do" Starbucks.
I also submitted for a $2 cash rebate for the Whole Earth sweetener and a .25¢ cash rebate for any item you bought on Ibotta.
I also submitted for a .25¢ cash rebate for the Salad on Checkout51.
So I bought home all the above for $62.76 in free gift cards and earned $15 in new free gift cards(plus $5 for Starbucks)and $2.50 in cash rebates so the effective price for everything above was $45.26(if I had paid for the gift cards). *Once I get my .50¢ back for the discount sticker on the salad the effective price for all will be $44.76
I am off now to go get my free turkey breast from Weis(PMITA)Markets since I have 50 gas points. This will go into the freezer for later as I am defrosting the ham I also got for free from Weis with gas points at Christmas time. 8-)
Did you hit Target or some other store and get any good deals on groceries this week?
