$7.98

The bulk of the $ was spent on the easy macs ($2 something) & the ritz were .89 a box. But I'm very happy with the total spent. Yay. Having a party? I'll bring the salad! I think I would have spent over $25 for these items, and that's assuming they're on a great sale. Thanks to Deal Seeking Mom's Post about Target Deals.

Snack Time!

Went to Target today to get some deals...here's my favorite one!

Sale price $1.79 each - (4) .50 coupons - $5 gift card when you buy 4

Total price: $.04 each.

Wow!

That's less than 1 cent per snack. I love cheap chocolate snacks.

Target Deals this Week!

In my quest for Family Organization I've been on the hunt for a cheap family calendar. Confession: My sister in law has one on her wall and I'm lovin that her and her family can communicate and always know what's going on----I'm totally doing that! I know a calendar isn't exactly new to the family world----but I'm a little behind... AND I'm so tired of telling my super sweet and loving heath a THOUSAND times about an event---only to have him the night before trying to talk me out of it cause he forgot about it.

Problem solved:

family calendar---$2.48 Target Clearance

Family Organization---priceless.

AND

Its the little things that make me happy----like loosing the blades to my circle cutter---and finding the blades that I need on CLEARANCE for $ .98 WOHOO!

Here's my deals from Target this week. I didn't have the coupons to do all the deals I wanted to, BUT I'm liking my finds this week...


Gillette Body Wash - .04
used $1.50 Target coupon from bottom of receipt on previous purchase
used $2 manuf. coupon
Some Target stores have the gillette items on sale for $2 not me. sad face.


Mott's Apple Sauce 6pack- .69 ea
used 2 - $1 off 1 Target online coupons (had to do 2 transactions)
**deal could have been better if I had the .55 printable coupons---but I'm maxed out on those.

Quaker Products - $8.95 for 10 !!

Used $6.05 of manuf. coupons
Received 2 - $5 gift cards for purchasing 10 (had to do 2 transactions)
I turned around and used the gift cards towards my other purchases...

A trashcan! Yup. I said a trashcan. I've REALLY been on the lookout for a nice stainless steel trashcan for a good price. A little while ago when I was shopping at target for pillows ($4 again this week btw) I received a coupon for $10 off of a $50+ home purchase. Score! So not only was my trashcan of choice on sale at Target but I also had $10 off!! Yay! So happy.

Target Clearance----Yay!

Check out Target for lots of home decor, bedroom, bathroom, ... on clearance! Don't go crazy---but definitely GO!

I bought window treatments for my new place, a rug for my girl's room, a nightstand, trash can, a few hand towels, and some shower rings. 

My goal whenever I shop Home Clearance stuff is NOT to see the deals and want to redecorate everything cause I find something so cute---that's what they want you to do---but instead think of how to accent or add to what you already have as a theme in your home. 

The sheets are cheap if you need new ones. Less than $10 for twin and queen---king and cal king were $14 I think. 

OHHHH...I almost forgot. I bought the CUTEST frames. Ahhhh----I need to post a picture. OK-later I will.

$1 at Target - 20 minutes of Entertainment

I found these at my Target's Dollar Section and Jacob loves them! He played with them in the food court of Target, then when we got home, & now he's on the floor playing with them again! They have the the one pictured above and a pack with girl colors too. Its giant puzzle pieces that you can put multiple pieces inside to make your own design. So cute. Note: Jacob would NOT look at the camera-having way too much fun.

Walgreens

$3.88

I'm just getting started with Walgreens. This deal was a great one if your just getting started too. Jacob REALLY wanted to help set up "daddy's medicine" for the picture.

The 3 Robitussin were a Money Maker of $7. Click HERE for more info. The airborne was buy 2 get one FREE & I had coupons. Click HERE for a sample and to Print the $2 coupon I used for the deal! Thanks to Deal Seeking Mom for the Walgreens Deals.

Stater Bros

$5 + tax

Sorry No Picture - frozen stuff, lots to unload, napping kids, blah blah blah. You get the picture.

The promo this week is buy 10 participating items get $5 off your purchase. I stacked that offer with manuf. coupons and ended up getting 8 bags of Green Giant Steamers for .50ea and 2 boxes of Cake mix for .50ea. (Heath's Birthday cake...Sunday 9/14 he's turning 30!)

Target: My target had Circo Infant/Toddler Socks single pack for $.34 - That's a good deal right? It was 70% off. They were on clearance because the have a new look to the Circo logo. Hmm...Maybe we should keep an eye out for the old Circo stuff going on clearance for SUPER cheap.

That's all for now. Happy shopping! Find any good deals or coupons?

Check out what I scored at Target! I purchased 3 double packs of Ponds Cleansing Cloths (opened one for you to see) I think they were a total of 45 count per double pack. I stacked a Target coupon with a manufacturer coupon and paid $1.24 for each. Saved a total of $9 BUT What makes it such an AMAZING Deal... I also got 3 tickets to the movies! Value of $12 ea for ANY Universal Pictures movie. Yea! Date night - totally!

*Money Saving Tip*

So we'll be able to have a date night more often we only do Dinner OR a Movie.

If we go to the movies we try to only go if we have a free ticket or gift card.

If we go to dinner we definitely use a coupon or split. Sunday paper has coupons.

yup - my kids are sitting on the table!

Jacob really wanted his shoes in the picture. lol

My princess Lexi :)

"Take a picture of SpongeBob Mom!"

My free stuff at Target. Using online and newpaper coupons here's the list of Free stuff I got at Target. Note: I also had overage that I used to help my sis buy Mascara.

2 - 10 ct BandAids
3 - 2 ct razors
1 - gold bond body powder
1 - travel size clean&clear
2 - travel size johnson's shampoo
2 - Johnson's Buddies Soap (love that soap!!!!)

All Free + $5.43 OVERAGE!!!
What's overage? If you have a $2 coupon and the item is only .97 - then thats $1.03 to go towards another item (and tax). Yeah!!! Note: That DOESN'T work at the grocery store, g.store computers are too smart. AND - the store won't pay you the $5.43 so you need to buy more if you don't want the $ to go to waste. BUT>>>> here's a possible loophole>>>>purchase a $10 gift card too...then your total might be a few dollars but your taking home a gift card for more! I haven't tried it - but why wouldn't it work?!

Tomorrow...Walmart deals and the Phoenix Zoo. SOOO excited.

Just needed soda for Heath but it was 5.99 for a 12 pack and buy 2 get 1 free. That's 3 for $12 - terrible price!
