Shopping Trip

So here is the last of my shopping for the week.  My original plan was to go nuts with price matching at Walmart but it turns out my Walmart did not have any organic produce at all.  Plus I had this $5/30 coupon I was itching to use.

Sprouts $17.53

Frozen Blueberries $2.50- used 50% off coupon= $1.25
Hubert’s Lemonade- Free with coupon
2 packages chicken tenders $1.88/lb- $7.28
Organic Apples $2.44
Organic Pears $3.01
2 Mushrooms $.99 each
3 Bolder Canyon Chips $1.50- used $1 coupons= $.50
Organic Broccoli $2.00
2 mangoes $.49 each
Organic Carrots $1.50
Hansen’s Soda $2.99- used Free coupon from Sprouts Home Mailer= Free

I had a $5/30 coupon I got in the mail from Sprouts- so just $17!

I did a quick run to Target and here the score:

2 pairs of kids jeans $4.00 each- used $2/1 Target coupon= $2 each
2 Nuby Sippy Cups $1.38 each on clearance
Sharpies $1- used $1 Target coupon= Free
2 Neutrogena lip balm $2.99- used $1 manufacturer coupon and $1 Target coupon= $.99
1 Neutrogena Sunscreen $7.94- used $2 coupon= $5.94- got $5 gift card back = $2.94 for all 3 items after gift card
2 Lipton Recipe Secrets $1.24- used (2) $1 coupons= $.24

Total toward my grocery budget was $3.42- I included the sunscreen and Lipton.

    Is the neutrogena natural lip balm coupon still on target coupons? I could only find a ‘neutrogena cosmetics item’ coupon.

    I got the sprouts coupons too , i think I might try to copy some of your transactions. Have you tried their chicken tenders before ? I have never tried their meat before .

    Annie, I don’t eat chicken myself but I don’t mind their meat. It is fresh so slightly better than the frozen bags I used to buy at Safeway. You just need to use it or freeze it within a few days. We had a package in the fridge for 3 days once and it had to be tossed because it smelled.

    Maria, Did you look all over? I checked the clearance racks and it was a bust but then I found a normal display and they were $4. I still have more coupons that I am holding onto because there are bound to be more sales.
