Safeway, Target and Kohls...

Well, I didn't get a picture of all that we bought but I did take one of my receipt.  It's funny that if Tim is with me shopping we always get something extra that I wasn't quite planning on.  He hardly ever goes shopping with because of this reason.  Well and the fact that he doesn't want to be in the store for an hour!  Today it was a necessary evil.  We got all that I had said...we ended up with no grapes but instead got some Breyers Blasts Ice Cream.  I had gotten some two weeks ago because I had some .75 off 1 which doubled on the new blasts for Breyers.  Since it is a new product they had an introductory price of $2.79.   Breyers Ice Cream for $1.49!!  Well Tim loved it and I had two more coupons with me.  He convinced me to get more since he does not get ice cream much but the price was now $4.99 *cringe*.  Even with the $1.50 off it was still $3.49 which is over what I like to pay. I typically wont get ice cream unless it is less than $3.  Oh well it was a special treat.  We did however check the dog food isle because I had  free coupon to try Purina's new Beyond and my Safeway never has it for dogs.  Guess what they did have it here.  Wash will be trying out some new food soon :)

Bottom line

We still ended up saving 67% of our bill and paid $30 for 21 items.  I had to go to the customer service desk because I forgot to give them a coupon.  They are so great about that, no questions asked, just give me back the money.

Target

We stopped at Target because we needed an ink cartridge and I also wanted to check out a pair of sandals on sale.  Since my bridal shower is coming up, I was looking for a cute pair of brown sandals that gave me support.   While Tim was getting the ink, I decided to look in jewelry.  I have been looking for a flower/feather clip for my hair on my wedding day.  Etsy had some amazing, beautiful creations but most were $50-$100.  Not what I had in mind paying.  I was hoping I would find something randomly while shopping before June so I could get something a lot cheaper.  Well!!!!  Today was that day.  Out of the corner of my eye I saw an ivory flower with some feathers on it. It even had a silver jeweled center.  Target price...$7.99.  Much more my speed!  Now I can schedule a hair trial with the actual clip!!!  

Kohls

Tim has been really wanting a sodastream machine.  We had put it on our registry but I wanted to get it for him since I had not gotten him a birthday present.  Well, I was at Kohls on Saturday with a great friend and we saw it there.  She was so generous by sharing her 30% coupon.  Since it was Kohls cash time I figured this would be a great deal. It was on sale for $80. I have never seen it less than $100.  Then I would get 30% off and then $10 in Kohls cash back.  This worked perfectly because the 30% coupon overlapped using the Kohls cash. Tim was so excited about his new toy.  We have already made diet grapefruit soda and he is scheming ways to make crazy carbonated drinks.  Today we went back to Kohls together to get the supplementary two bottle set that was on sale for $14.99 from $17.99.  We also had the coupon and $10 in Kohls cash.  We ended up paying $3.50 for the extra bottles!!  I am sure I will share all the crazy carbonations he comes up with.  Sodastreams are sold at many stores now but I have seen them at Kohls and Bed Bath and Beyond.

I love when shopping goes that smoothly...time to start dinner :)
