Coupon Mastery

November 21, 2008 · Filed Under Albertsons, coupons, the parent bloggers network 

So today I did it. I got all this for 11.80

Total before coupons was 93.77

This is a Turkey, 2 Dr Peppers, 11 pouches of tuna, 4 packages of sausage, four more fresh packages of sausage, 7 cans of baby food 3 packages of pop tarts, and 1 kit kat. Now this is funny. I had to buy the kit kat so that I could use a 5.00 off 50.00 coupon. I was at 49.79 or something like that so she said I had to buy something else to use the coupon. It was worth it.

How did I do this?
Coupons!!!!
Albertsons, takes competitor coupons. My five dollars off 50 was from the Entertainment book.
I had a 15.00 off turkey coupon from The Parent Bloggers Network, I had 2 free coupons for the Dr. Pepper for buying a turkey, I had 11 1.00 off coupons for the tuna (on sale for 10 for 10). The sausage was on sale for 2 for 5 with a coupon machine giving me 1.00 off coupons, so it ends up 2 for 3. Then each sausage had a coupon for one free fresh package of sausage. I went to Albertsons earlier this week and for buying all of this sausage I got a Catalina coupon for three dollars off. So I got all 8 packages of sausage for 3.00. WOW. I did spend more than I planned on because some of the packages of tuna I purchaesd were not on sale, but I wanted them anyways because they looked like a good flavor. Coupons do work!!!

    Congrats! That is absolutely amazing. I just got back from the grocery store and I thought I did good saving $20.

    You did really good! I keep forgetting Albie’s takes competitor coupons. Do you usually do self checkout at Albie’s, or do you go through the regular lanes?

    Wow! Now you just have to find a tuna-stuffed turkey recipe with Dr. Pepper sausage gravy.

    ;)

    Have a great Thanksgiving! Good shopping!
