Shopping Trip for Week of Feb. 15th-28th

Since we were gone, I didn't make it to the store until Feb. 18th. I decided then to purchase all I would need until right before Ben comes home. My cost before coupons and sales would have been over $100 ($88.58 not counting sales). After $27 of coupons, I paid $61.37. I must tell you that it is important to count your sales too because that is part of the savings. I don't like that the commissary doesn't calculate this so I do it myself. The biggest sale of all was GM cereal. The small boxes are $1.99. It has been over 4 months since they have had a sale so I stocked up! The other deal was Valentine's Day candy. I scored big and will use it to make cookies and other goodies. The candy can be cut up and used just like a baking bar. Needless to say, I scored several bags for 15-42 cents! So cheap! I have bought a total of 15 bags!

I hope you are finding sales, maximizing your dollars, and increasing your family's savings trip by trip!
