Extreme Couponing?? close.....but not really.....

Foods Co (our Kroger equivalent, but they don't honor other Kroger offers) had an awesome sale this week on many different products!  Everything had to be purchased in quanities of 10, but could be mixed and matched.

While I have consistently used coupons for many years, I've not consistently done well with them.  Since my injury, I've been trying harder and am now concentrating on building a stockpile.

So, here's my haul ~

Non-coupon items
10 Capri Sun - 1.48 each = $11.48
10 Kraft BBQ  sauce - 0.48 each = $4.80
15 Powerade - 0.48 each = $7.20
5 Eggo Waffles - 1.48 each = $7.40
10 boxes of Creamette pasta - 0.48 ea = 4.80
Bananas - 0.59/lb = 6.59 lbs = 3.89
3 cucumbers = 0.99
Tomatoes - 0.87/lb = 1.43
Fuji apples - 0.67/lb = 2.82
4 boxes of Post cereal - 1.88 ea = 7.52
3 Flour tortillas (10 count) = 1.00 ea = 3.00
Salad (1 bag) = 1.78
Ho-Hos (for my hubby) - 2.00

Coupon Items
6 Mens Old spice body wash - 2.48 each - used B1G1 Free coupons - 6 for 1.24 each
4 Men's Gillette body wash - 2.48 each - used B1G1 free deodorant (see below)
4 Gillette deodorant - priced at 4.58 each = FREE
3 Always pads - 2.28 each, used $1/1 coupons = 1.28 each
3 Tampax - 2.28 each, used $1/1 coupons = 1.28
4 Old Spice deodorant - 1.78 each, used $1/2 coupons = 1.28 each
2 Kraft singles, 2% - 1.78 each, used printed 0.75 coupons = 1.03 each
2 Country time lemonade powdered mix - 2.50 each, used peelie $2/ 1 when you buy 2 Kraft BBQ sauce = 0.50 each

My register receipt doesn't list the amount I saved, but I got all of this for  $107.46!  I think it is pretty good!

Hubby now has more than a year supply of bodywash and deodorant!
