Ok so my favorite store to shop at is Hy-Vee! I worked for HV in high school, and won the college scholarship. To recieve the scholarship I went to West Demoines, IA. and got to tour the Hy-Vee museum--guess that is where my facination started! :) My friends make fun of my Hy-Vee obsession. I just have always perferred the helpful smiles in every isle! They just built a cool new Hy-Vee in Liberty that I visit every week. So as an extreme couponer I realize that I do have to buy items that aren't for 67%+ off! But I can still save money on my purchases. Tonight's bargins don't meet my high percentage level, but I don't think I bought a single item at full price!
I applied a total of $14.04 worth of store and MF coupons to my purchase and my total was $72.50. I'm estimating another $25.80 off of normal retail price for the items I purchased. So if it was full price it would have been $112.34 so a savings of $39.84 which is 35.5% savings. Some of my good deals today included:
Oscar Myers Hotdogs-8 pack-bun length, on sale for $0.99 a package (usually over $2), plus I used a MF coupon for $1 off of 2, making each package $0.49...I bought 4 packages.
Oscar Myers Shaved Deli Meat-on sale for $2.49 each, plus store coupon of $0.50 off each, MF coupon of $1 off 2,=$1.50 each
Ritz Crackers, on sale $1.99 a box, minus $0.50 each store coupon, minus MF coupon $1 off 2=$1 each
Kraft Mac N Cheese, 5 pack, on sale for $3.79, plus $0.50 store coupon,=$3.29 or $0.65 a box which is about equal to a generic brand on sale, but I also got an instant coupon on the side of the box that gave me 10 FREE packets of Kool-Aid. So why not I said?
Ragu Spaghetti Sauce, on sale $1.77, minus $1.35 MF coupon off 3=$1.32 each (or kinda like one free)
Pace Salsa, larger bottle, on sale $2.77 (usually at least a dollar more)
Suddenly Salad Pasta Mix, on sale $0.99 each
Wheat Thins, on sale $1.99 (usually over $3), plus store coupon of $0.50=$1.49 a box.
Kraft Shredded Cheese, 8 oz bag, usually $2.89, on sale for $1.99 plus store coupon=$1.49
Those are a few of my finds. I had a kitty litter coupon I was going to use, but the generic brand was like over a $1 cheaper after my coupon and the store markdown so it wasn't worth it.
