GIANT Score
Posted in: Other // Comments (4)
My wife and I have been trying out this couponing thing for the past few weeks, and this may have been our best trip yet, how did we do?
We live in Lancaster, PA so one of our main stores is GIANT. This week they had numerous specials where you “Buy $$$ of this group of products, receive $$$ amount off instantly”. Using that deal and coupons made for some great stacking. Although, you had to do separate transcations which was challenging for us newbies. To make things worse, we tried to do this all on our own through the self checkout line! Here is what we got:
Knorr Lipton Pasta & Rice Sides were 10 for $10, making them $1 each. Then they had a deal which included these, “buy any 6, save $4 instantly”. Pluse we had the mfg coupon $1 off 3. They ended up being FREE, so we used all of the coupons we had and bought 24 of them at no cost.
Lipton Recipe Secrets – 4/$5.00, buy any 6 save $4.00 instantly, plus $1/2 mfg coupon. They ended up being $.08 each! We had enought coupons for 12 of them.
Ball Park hot dogs were buy one get one free. Reg price $4.49 ea. Plus we used the mfg coupon for $1/2, making them $1.75 each. We ended up getting 6 packs.
Hillshire Farm items were also buy one get one free, reg. price $4.49 ea. Also used the mfg. coupon $1/2, making them $1.75 each. We ended up getting 12 total packs (lil’ smokies, cheder dogs, etc.)
Wishbone salad dressing was 3/$5.00, buy any 6 and get $4.00 off instantly. Plus we used mfg coupone $1.25/2. These ended up being $.37 each. We got 12 of them.
Mrs T’s Perogies were 2/$4.00, used $1 off 2 mfg coupon, final price $1.50 each. We got 4 of them.
Total retail price before savings = $203.71
Total price we paid = $53.11
Savings = $$150.60 (or 74%)

Posted in: Walgreens // Comments Off
Wow! I had a GREAT Walgreens trip today!
In retrospect, I could have organized my purchases better so I wouldn’t end up with so many RR at the end and spent less out of picket, but now I have some RR to save to start off my rolling transaction for next week! The following items are worth $84.50!!
Trip Total’s:
Out of Pocket:$26.50
Ended with $9 RR
Total: $17.50
Seeing how the 4 deodorant’s would typically retail for over $20 – I am considering this trip a success
