today's damage...


i love shaw's. it doesn't love me, but that's another post. today i spent a whopping $1.11 total on the following:

transaction 1:
6 quaker rice quakes in various flavors (retails for 1.99 each, on sale for $1 each)
1 finish quantum 15 pack (retails for 5.29, on sale for 4.39)
2 salsa chips (retails for 2.99 each, on sale for buy one, get one free)

total retail price: 23.21
total sale price: 13.38
total coupons: 13.50
6 x 1.50 for quakes (.75 coupons that doubled)
2 x 1.00 for salsa chips
1 x 2.50 for quantum

total out of pocket: -.12!!!! the quantum coupon reduced the tax owed, so i ended up making 12 cents on this deal!

transaction 2:
6 quaker rice quakes in various flavors (retails for 1.99 each, on sale for $1 each)
1 finish quantum 15 pack (retails for 5.29, on sale for 4.39)
6 thomas pez dispensers (retails for 1.49 each, on sale for .37)
x-mas clearance??

total retail price: 26.17
total sale price: 12.61
total coupons: 13.50
6 x 1.50 for quakes (.75 coupons that doubled)
1 x 2.50 for quantum

total out of pocket: 1.23

so there you have it! my kids love the quakes snacks, and peter even sort of likes the nacho flavored ones since he's on a diet. i think i'll end up eating the salsa chips if emily doesn't beat me to it. i run my dishwasher every day, so we always need the quantums. i'll save the pez dispensers to use as party favors for ryan's birthday.

all in all, i had a great shopping day. now if i can just stay away from the gap and old navy. they are both having a killer sale, but we really don't need any clothes, so even a good deal would be a waste of money.

happy shopping!
