Couponing ... it's a family event! :-)

The whole family was involved in couponing today --- Jason, Easton & I had several errands to run, so we took advantage of being out in town and picked up several deals. We visited Food Lion, CVS and the Commissary and here's what we got:




24 SOBE waters
16 boxes Marcal tissue
6 10pk Capri Sun
4 panty liners
3 Milky Way Caramels
2 Pasta Sauce
1 Folgers coffee
1 frozen mixed veggies
1 frozen onions
3 lbs of chicken

Retail cost of these items with tax is $101.69 .... we paid $9.79 (that's including tax!!!). That is a savings of 90%!

How did we do this? The SOBE waters came from CVS - they are running a BOGO special on the waters, and I had BOGO coupons. This equals free waters! (just pay tax). CVS is also running a buy 2 CVS panty liners for $1, get $1 ECB back. So free panty liners! They also have their Mars brand candy bars for 50cents this week, and I received 3 50cents off Milky Way Caramels = free chocolate!

The Marcal tissues came from $1 off Marcal coupons found in the Sunday paper coupon inserts. We got these at the commissary, so NO TAX, we only had to pay the surcharge of 63cents for 16 boxes of tissue!

The remaining purchases came from Food Lion .... free frozen onions, 7cents CapriSuns, 47cents pasta sauce and $1 chicken & mixed veggies can be bought with the current FLIP (Food Lion Internet Printable) coupons. The Hershey bar was free with a Food Lion mobile coupon, and the Folgers was also purchased with a mobile coupon. After coupon and MVP sale the coffee was less than $2. Definitely the most expensive purchase of the day, but much cheaper than regular price :-)

It was definitely a fun day - I am looking forward to our next family couponing adventure!!!
