This is actually a little funny.  I couldn’t get half the things on my list this week because my grocery store was out of food!  They had most sections of produce, deli, meat and freezer sections completely empty for a remodel.  So I will likely make another trip tomorrow to a different store.

In the meantime, here is what I got:

COSTCO: $12.17

Large Bag Tortillas $2.79
Hamburger Buns $2.99
Fresh Mozzarella $6.39

CVS $14.41

Transaction #1
Skintimate $3.99- Used $2/1 coupon from Maire Claire magazine
CVS Baby Wipes- used $1 CVS coupon for paper products
Also used .50 ECB- paid $2.31 and got a $3 ECB back

Transaction #2
2 Johnson and Johnson Baby products $2.99- used (2) $1/1 coupons
CVS Brand Baby Wash $1.99- used $1 CVS Brand skin care coupon
Pampers Box $19.99- used $4.50 off Pampers CVS coupon, and used $1.50 manufacturer coupon
Then I used the $3 ECB from above, another $5 ECB and a $1 ECB from my bag tag
Final Price: $12.10 and I got a $10 ECB back!

SAFEWAY: $33.12

4 Sfwy Soda $2.76 + .40 CRV
3 Kraft Philly Cream Cheese Singles $1.49 each- used FREE coupon, $1 off coupon and .55 blinkie
3 Ben and Jerry’s at $2.29- ecoupon for $2 came off
Tote Bag $1.49- free with $40 purchase
Huggies Overnights $7.99- used $3 coupon
Nivea Lip Balm $1
Whole Wheat Bread $1.50
Safeway Chicken Breast $6.68 x 2 bags
Grapes $5- got $1 off with produce coupon

So the grand total was $59.70- I try to spend $50 per week for everything with the exception of diapers and formula. So I didn’t really go over since I bought the Huggies and the Pampers. I will probably head back to Safeway to get the Papaya and a few of the other deals I wasn’t able to purchase tonight.

    It came from the coupon scanner- I didn’t plan to buy them until I got that when I went into the store.
