I did a quick run today to Rite Aid and Raleys.  We went to Whole Foods earlier today since they have a little park for the kiddos and it is gorgeous here!

WHOLE FOODS: $1.97
I got 3 more boxes of Free Kashi Cereal (and in case you wondered, I put them all in ziploc bags to save space in the pantry)
I got 2 more free Blue Diamond Almond Milk
and I got a Ciabaguette for $1.99

Rite Aid $11.16
I bought 3 John Freida and 4 Biore. I used the coupons I told you about HERE with one exception. I bought Frizz Ease for $6.49 and used an extra $1 ad perk coupon. So this wound up being .49 extra after coupon.
Luden’s .99
The total was $8.48 with $2.68 in tax. I will get $5 rebate back from John Freida and $5 back from Biore so my net spent was $1.16 or basically just the cough drops! What a great deal!  (Oh I also used a $5/25 Rite Aid coupon and the Biore had a $2/2 peelie)

Raley’s $8.38
I might go back again tonight because this is really good deal.
I bought 2 Jennie O Turkey Dinners at $2.99. They had .55 peelies on the front that I used PLUS I got 2 Country Crock dinners (valued at $5.99) for free with purchase!
2 Francisco Sandwich Rolls $2.50 each- used .75/1 HERE
PLUS I got a free mocha with the coupon HERE!
*I am also going to submit the rebate HERE for $5 back for buying Jennie O!

    If you bought a John Frieda “Styler” and a shampoo, you should also get back the price of the shampoo (up to $6.99)in a Rebate this month too….front page of Rebate Book. At least that’s what I understood…maybe I’m wrong.

    You are not wrong Farah! I am hoping I can double dip on that rebate later this month.

    the Jenni-o rebate says something about only to the first 25,000 or something, so if I send in my rebate am I taking a chance?

  10. Charlene says

    03/10/2010 at 10:00 AM

    Yes Tina you are not guaranteed to get it.
