Did some Shopping!!!
>> April 28, 2009
Whew..it has been awhile since I went out to the stores to "coupon" !
I have had family here this month for a few weeks, and then went out of town for a week.
So I really needed this little couponing getaway tonight.. :)
Can I just whine a little to you all..my dear readers.. Whilst in Vancouver last week my purse was stolen! (I left purse in car, they broke window and stole it) Now, I was probably most upset about the coupons,Register Rewards, gift cards and catalinas inside..I had lots of good ones in there. Some Rainchecks too.. (waaaaahhh...) I knew you would all understand my pain....I have the attitude of "Take Anything but the coupons!!!" lol!
Anyhoo...on to my shopping.
Oh thats right..wait. You may not want to see.
I did it again.
Just close your eyes..okay? You never saw this.
I bought that item I am not supposed to buy.
Cereal. My cheap arch enemy. Always beckoning me to buy it. Remember this week and this post? Yeah, the stockpile hasnt really gone down much.
You know I dont have any more room. But I couldnt help myself!
I did it all for the movie tickets. I love the movies! Speaking of which, I just reached $3,000.00 in savings so you all know what that means..giveaway time! So stay tuned. Hmmm..Anyone need cereal?..LOL..just kidding.I purchased 16 boxes Kelloggs cereal -used $1/1 coupons
2 boxes cheez-its - used $1/2 coupons
1 packages keebler cookies - -used $1/2 coupons
6 Vitamin waters -- drank one -used $1/1 coupons
Got BACK 2 Vouchers for 2 movie tickets EACH! So I added the $36 that I will save when I go to the movies to my savings totals!

What Safeway did you get your water at? I've seen posts on this site talking about Tri-Cities wa and just wanted to make sure the water catalina was running at the wa safeways before I went and got some. Thanks.
So sad about your purse getting stolen! Dang thieves!!!
I bought the water at the Richland Washington location. Its the Arrowhead brand for us here!
Buy 2 and get $2 on your next order! Woo hoo!
That is so horrible that your car was broken into and all your valuable coupons were taken! But on a lighter note... that is so hilarious about the cereal. Why is it so easy and tempting to buy them at such ridiculously low prices?! LOL I have so much that I'm starting to feed it to my dog and koi fish as an occasional treat!
Cris you crack me up! Karrie I feel the same way about cereal-you have seen my pantry and poor siena's closet:) it is quite the love hate relationship. i found a few 1.50/1 kelloggs q's dumpster diving-so I will HAVE to get a couple more boxes free from albertsons this week....unless someone knows about any doubler deals coming up that I should save them for:) lol
