Grocery Fun

I'm extremely excited this week. We refund our grocery envelope on the 15th of each month, and for the first time since Elliana was born, we still had $12 left in the envelope when we went to fund it!!!!! I'm usually in the hole $10-15 by the end of the month, so this was way exciting for me. Maybe we can double it by next month!

So here were my deals this week. If any of you buy diapers, you should definitely go to Target this week. If you click here, you will go to the Target coupon generator. There are 3 coupons you can use at the same time to buy diapers this week. There is a coupon for $5 off the purchase of Pampers diapers and wipes (the wipes are on sale for $5 this week). The next coupon is for $3 off the same purchase so now you've already taken $8 off the total purchase. Then there is also a coupon to receive a $5 gift card when you purchase the combo of diapers and wipes.

The first time you make the transaction, you'll pay $7 for the combo of diapers and wipes but you'll still have the $5 gift card which is almost like paying $2 for the diapers and wipes. But the coupon generator lets you print as many coupons as you want so if you go and do the deal a 2nd time, you can you use your $5 gift card, only pay $2 out of pocket, and walk away with another $5 gift card. In essence, you would make $3 off the deal. Pretty fun!!!

At CVS this week, I bought 2 tubes of Colgate toothpaste, a gallon of hormone free milk, and some mascara for $5. Not bad since a gallon of hormone free milk at Wal Mart is $5!!!

I'm loving this money saving game. My goal is to have $24 left in the envelope this month. We'll see how I do!
