82% Savings at Kroger


I got everything in the picture in 2 transactions for a total of $16.02. I saved $71.44! Is is sad that I grocery shop and then blog about it for some fun after the kids are in bed? Probably, but oh well!

I used a $5/$25 coupon on each transaction. On the 2nd one, I used 2 $4 OYNO coupons that I got from the first transaction. I had a very grumpy cashier, but the nice manager was bagging, so it wasn't too bad.

Here's what I bought with the price breakdowns -

Transaction #1-
3 boxes Lean pockets - $.67 each after $.50/1 coupon that doubled
5 packs Cottonelle toilet paper - Free after 5 $.50/1 coupons that doubled plus $.50 overage from Shortcuts coupon (Don't worry, Dave, I gave some away to Annette today and used up a pack upstairs.)
2 Glade Flameless Candles - $3.99 for 2 after BOGO coupon and $5 coupon, printed 2 $4 OYNO coupons
3 Johnsons Buddy Bars - $.27 for all 3 after $3/3 Johnsons catalina
2 32 oz Powerades - free after coupons from My Coke Rewards

Transaction #2-
6 cans Hunts diced tomatoes - $.18 each after 3 $.40/2 coupons that doubled and $1/5 Shortcuts coupon
4 cans Campbell's soup - $.40 each after $.40/4 coupon that doubled
2 cans Pilsbury Grands biscuits - $.35 each after $.50/2 coupon that doubled and $.30/1 Cellfire coupon
1 bottle Franks Hot Sauce - $.41 overage after $1.50/1 coupon
1 bottle Clorox bleach - $1.39 after $.50/1 Cellfire coupon
1 4-pack fan bulbs - $1.99
1 pack Huggies Supreme diapers - $6.99 after $1.50/1 coupon and $1.50/1 Shortcuts coupon
1 pack bacon - $1.99
1 pack hotdog buns - $.99
1 bag frozen strawberries - $3.49 (Note to self - remember to buy these at Aldi next time. They are much cheaper there, but I am out and don't have time to go to Aldi again this week.)
1 16 pack Frigo Cheese sticks - $1.44 after Manager's Special and $.55/1 coupon
1 pack Yoplait kids yogurt - $.88 after $1.50/1 coupon
1 pack Yo Plus yogurt - $.49 after $1/1 coupon and $1/1 Cellfire coupon
1 pack YoBaby yogurt - $1.49 after Manager's special and $.50/1 coupon that doubled
16 oz ham steaks - $1.99 after manager's special (I diced this a froze it to use next week. It had a use by date of 10/11, so I'm not quite sure why it on Manager's Special already anyway).
