I'm not complaining any more on this blog (yeah, right!) so I will just happily post my Walmart shopping trip from tonight. I'll just cheerfully state that I have NEVER seen lines so long. Ever. It was spectacular. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a newspaper article on it or something.
Retails: $18.85
Total Spent: $5.20
Percent Off: 72%
How did I do it?
- compiled my list from Hip2Save
- sales: $1.79
- coupons: $11.00
- free: the Buddie Bar soaps & the lint rollers, the grill seasoning was 8 cents each, the hot dogs were 14 cents each, the tabasco sauce were 23 cents each, the food coloring was on rollback for $1.25.
- I did pay full price for the garlic at $.43/lb, and the tomatoes at 50 cents each as I was running out of both of them. It's hard to beat canned tomatoes at 50 cents each.
Money Left for the Month: $96.03
I can't handle Walmart either. Hey- I'm going to California June 28th- can you do a guest post for me one of the days I am gone? I know you have intermuse now- but if you could write something after that about deal finding or your experience in the last few months becoming a coupon shopper- I would love it. You would be witty and funny, and just great. Let me know! Thanks! Brooke
ReplyDeleteI was at walmart at midnight last night getting some medicine for my baby and I was surprised at how busy it was. I was in line forever.
ReplyDeleteThe lines at my Wal-Mart are ALWAYS ridiculously long. I usually grab a magazine and read it while I'm waiting.
ReplyDeleteYou did a very good job at Wal-Mart on this trip.
