4 Stores…Im shopped out! But I did goooood!!!

DH and I went on a date tonight…with Bobby…to the store…ok to lots of stores.  Sometimes dates have 3 participants and are not so romantic…but, I guess I’ll take what I can get ;)  We went to Aldi, CVS, Walgreens & Pick ‘n Save!   The picture above is of everything I got…I paid a total of $71.38 and saved $104.38!   My retail value was $175.76!!

…Ive been getting quite a few emails lately asking me to list out what I get so that you guys can “work the deals” the same way as me…Im going to TRY to do this the best that I can, but so many things are variable…like if you have ECB’s or RR’s from the previous week & clearance deals…so just keep in mind, you probably wont be able to duplicate every transaction 100%.  And also remember the CVS and Walgreens deals I got end tonight!
