Target again and a Surprise at Shaws

Yep, I went back to Target. I'm hooked.

They had TONS of stuff on clearance at my local Target and I decided to take advantage.

I got:

• 4 bottles of 100% apple juice (clearance 1.48 for 2)
• a huge box of Quaker oatmeal (clearane 3.48 minus coupon)
• 4 bottles of soft scrub cleaner (2-bottle packs clearance 2.48 minus coupon)
• 1 can of shaving cream (trial size minus coupon = free)
• 2 boxes of tampons (coupons plus generated a free Gift Card)
• 2 bricks of cheddar cheese (Target coupon and Manufacturer coupon)
• 8 pack of Tomato soup (accidentally left it out of the photo...hubby loves. clearance 2.98 minus coupon)

Total before coupons= 35.03

Total after coupons= 24.03

Paid with gift cards received in earlier deals

Received $15 in gift cards back

I was most excited about the soft scrub because I had 2 coupon for $2/1. These were packages of 2 bottles together in jumbo type pack clearanced at 2.48. So I got 2 bottles for .48! That is an awesome deal if I do say so myself. So, I bought another one of course. I was just thinking that I wanted some soft scrub for my new bathroom sinks...perfect timing.

Then I went to Shaws because I had a couple of Catalinas that were expiring today. I haven't been grocery shopping in ages except to pick up milk/bread/veggies because there just haven't been any deals. It's nice having a full pantry.

I got:

• 2 packages of stew meat
• 5 packages of black beans (Old El Paso sides...hubby really likes them)
• 3 boxes of cereal to make sure my total would be over $0.

My total was 2.60. It could have been lower if I'd bought only one box of cereal but I had a coupon for $1/3 and I know they'll get eaten so I bought 3.

BUT

I was surprised when out popped 2 catalina coupons from the register! I got 2 coupons for $1 off your next shopping trip! Bonus!
