Friday Shopping Weis & Rite-Aid

I went to Weis(PMITA)Markets yesterday to get the Friday Freebie and ended up with all this(plus a few other things too)............


1 x Weis bag of veggies=$1.97
3 x Bird's Eye Voila! meals chicken and shrimp ones on sale Friday only=$8.97
2 x Jimmy Dean breakfast sandwiches on sale=$9.00
3 x Shady Brook Farms turkey breast slices=$20.85
SubTotal.........$40.79

Coupons Used
1 x Weis FRIDAY FREEBIE=$1.97
3 x Birds Eye Voila! PeelieQs which doubled to $1 each=$3.00
2 x .75¢/1 Jimmy Dean Bfast sandwiches IPQ which doubled to $1.50 each=$3.00
3 x $3/1 Instant Meat stickers=$9.00
3 x $1.50/1 Shady Brook Farms item(excludes ground turkey)=$4.50
Coupon Total....$21.47

$40.79-$21.47=$19.32 OOP

I also picked up some fresh produce and 90% ground beef on special for the kids and a bottle of tea(which I'll be getting for free since it rang up incorrectly but I need to get to the store to take care of that).
Everything I bought came to $36.24.

The bag of Veggies were free so a no-brainer buying that.
The Bird's Eye Voila! meals were $1.99 each after sale/Qs.
The JD b'fast sammies were $3 a box of 4 or .75¢ each sammie after sale/Qs(and were something EX-CB had requested).
The turkey breast packs were $7.35 total.  Together they came to 3.48 lbs. so $2.11 per lb.

I also went up to Rite-Aid(again!)on Friday and bought this...........


7 x Great Grains cereals on sale $2.50 wyb at least 2=$17.50 paid for with Bonus Cash.
I had a card with BC I wanted to use up.
Every $8 worth of this cereal purchased gave me back $3 in new BC, so I earned $6 BC.
I also applied for .50¢ Ibotta rebates for each box(you can do up to 5 rebates per flavor of cereal)so I got $3.50 back in cash as well.
After BC and cash back these cereals cost me $8 or $1.14+ per box.  A really good price for one of the better quality cereals(not kiddie stuff).
I believe this R-A cereal deal is a month long one(a Limit of 4 Deals)as my receipt doesn't show I maxed out this deal after 2 Deals.
It would have been an even better deal if there were Post Great Grains Qs out there somewhere to use on this but hey!, $1.14+ a box is still a good deal if you eat this stuff.

I also bought 5 more Fig Newton packs..........


With Gold Wellness discount they are .63¢ per pack so $3.15 paid for with BC.
Checkout51 has that .75¢ Fig Newton rebate again this week until Wednesday(limit of 5)so I got $3.75 back in cash rebates there.
Also SavingStar has a .75¢ Fig Newton rebate(limit of 1)now so I spent $3.15 in Bonus Cash and earned back $4.50 in cash rebates, making these a $1.35 moneymaker. 8-)))

Now I've got to get some things/errands done today so we can take this road trip to South Carolina and North Carolina and Virginia.

Last chance to let me know if you live in those states if you want to meet up with Hubs and me.  Just email me and we can set something up.
Would love to meet some readers!!

So what's going on this weekend for you?

Weis Shopping & Future Mayo

I went to Weis(PMITA)Markets on Tuesday to get a few things.
Today is the last day of the sales flyer in which they have assorted items for .88¢ each when you purchase in increments of 8.  I did that deal yesterday and also got a few other deals......


The 9 Barilla pasta boxes, the 4 Knorr noodle bags, the 2 Powerade Zeros and the box of Scotties tissue were all .88¢ ea.
I had $5.25 in coupons of this stuff--3 x $1/3 Barilla, 2 x $1/2 Knorr and a store generated Catalina Q for .25¢ Scotties tissues--so $8.83 for all 16 items.  Most of that pasta and those noodles will be going to the food bank.

I had a $1/2 Pillsbury refrigerated items(coupons dotcom)IPA and those were on sale for $1 each, making the biscuits .50¢ a tube.....with the cost of flour and butter, I can't make biscuits for that cheap! lol
I also found this flavor of G2 Gatorade bottles on clearance for .50¢ each so I picked up 4.


I found a bag of onion rolls 50% in the Bakery Dept. for $1.64 and this package of almost 1 lb. of Angus cube steaks marked down AND with a $2 Instant Discount sticker, making it $2.92. (The beef goes in the freezer awaiting College Boy's return for Spring Break as he loves Chicken Fried Steak.)

I spent $16.65(w/tax) on $41.68 worth of regular retail groceries, giving me a 60% savings rate for these purchases.

Just a note--
This Friday when Weis(PMITA)Markets holds their Friday Sale they are going to have Hellman's mayonnaise on sale for 50% off.  That's a good deal to begin with and if you can combine the $1/2 Hellman's in the 1/3 inserts that would make it $1.50 per jar which is an even better price.

Better still for me, I can combine that sale with a coupon in that Unilever NYE Party booklet I got at Walmart while shopping with my Eldest son down in F'burg at the end of December..........



Reg. price of $3.99, on sale for $1.99, use $1/1 Q=.99¢ mayo.
Sweet!

Of course these Qs say only 2 identical Qs in a shopping trip and I have 5 of them so I'll have to do 3 transactions.  I'll go to the self-checkout registers so this won't be a problem and I wouldn't have to keep getting back in line to get all my mayo.

Mayo for the food bank, here we come!! lolz

Thursday in the new ad at Weis and there is Purex laundry detergent for $1.97 per jug.  I plan to get 8-10 of those and this, along with everything else I bought this month and the toiletries I got for free at Rite-Aid recently will give me a full food bank donation to take in next week.
I'll pile it all together for a photo before I haul it off.  8-)))

And I'll deduct everything I've spent on food bank goodies from my food budget for January as it's not goods we will keep and use.  While this will bring down my food spending total for Jan. it won't get me under budget by a long shot since I wheel and deal to get this stuff for free or very inexpensively, just like the food I buy that we do eat.  ;-)
