Suddenly Saturday,

Yesterday, we went to SAFEWAYS and never made it to the dollar store.  My husband had another stop to make.  I saved 49 percent.  I used coupons, JFU at SAFEWAYS that netted lemons and five dollars off our order.  My husband went for ink for the printer and used a ten dollar off card and got computer paper free Basicly.

I bought just things that were on sale and see coupons whenever possible.  I won't to for coupons where you have to give up your personal information.  It's just not worth it for me.

When you combine coupons with sales and just buy whats on sale you can lower you food costs dramatically.   The staples that are not on sale often, I find the store that typically has the lowest price.  Often, Costco is the cheapest on dairy.  The bread store is cheapest on bread, and in get brown and serve baguettes from Costco wholesale because they are cheaper than busting French bread from the store.  I could make it myself, but we aren't that predictable and when I did a lot went to waste.

Last night we had roast beef a jus sandwiches and green salad.  I had a coupon for salad and found it basically one  plus for free-- .45 each bag.  Tiramisu for desert.  It was valentines day.
I fed the kids chicken and cheese sandwiches because they don't eat pork or beef.

My husband  purchased tomorrows Sunday paper. Did they didn't have any coupons. I have ten dollars in Rite Aid rewards.  . I have been trying to roll over Rite Aid  dollars and see how long I could go. I think that I am at  the end of the rope.
Colgate total advanced or optic white toothpaste is 2/7 with the three dollar up. There should be coupons as well.  That's about it. Getting the paper early gives  me the option not to  rollover but get dollars soup with coupons again plus something else.  Or I can buy TP tomorrow for BOGO.

On to the Sunday ads

Bartells has facial tissue for .79 as well as pasta sauce for .79.
Wallgreens has tomato or chicken noodle soup for .75 and I have coupons.
Colgate max fresh is 2/5.  With 3 rewards makes it 2/2 and there are coupons.
To figure!
