Super Savings Round-Up

It feels great to be back on the couponing bandwagon! Here are the deals I've been able to score this week:

Target:

Purchased:

(3) Cheerios @ $2.44

(2) Honey Nut Cheerios @ $2.64

(1) Multigrain Cheerios @ $3.44

(4) Johnson's Buddies @ $.97

(5) Tide travel packs @ $1.12

(10) Market Pantry cheese sticks @ $.40

(8) Gerber BPA free baby bottles @ $.99

(5) Edy's Ice Cream @ $2.50

Coupons used:

(3) $1/2 Cheerios manuf. Q

(6) $1/1 General Mills cereal Target Q

(4) $1/1 Johnson's Baby toiletry Target Q

(5) $1/1 any Tide manuf. Q

(5) $1/2 Market Pantry Cheese Products Target Q

(7) $1/1 Gerber feeding item

(5) $1/1 Edy's Ice Cream Target Q

Total retail before Qs: $51.03

Total spent out of pocket after Qs: $17.06

PLUS, I got a $5 gift card back on the ice cream.

So, final cost: $12.06

Awesome! This was my best Target trip in a while. I got restocked on cereal, which we were needing, got really cheap ice cream to start stocking my freezer for our Thanksgiving hosting this fall, got free cheese sticks and lots of other great freebies, too! If you have Edy's man. Qs, and if you buy only the small boxes of regular Cheerios, you can do even better! I didn't have any of those $1/1 Edy's man. Qs, but still decided that $.50 per carton of ice cream was a stock up price for me. And I also made the decision to get some of the more expensive Multi Grain Cheerios, just because I like them. All in all, a good Target trip!

Walgreens:

My local Walgreens was pretty sparse on their stock this week, so this is all I was able to get:

Purchased:

(4) Cans Campbell's soup @ $.69

(1) Rembrandt Toothpaste

Qs Used:

(2) $1/2 Campbell's printable

(1) $5 RR from last week

Final Cost out of pocket: $.90 including tax, plus rolled my RR and got a new $5 back as well.

I was really thankful to get the soups, because there's a soup recipe I've been wanting to make that uses tomato soup... and with this crazy cool weather we've been having, soup is starting to sound pretty nice!

How about you guys? Any great deals to report?

Thomas DVD + bonus trains for only $1 after rebate!

Right now at Walmart.com, you can get the Thomas & Friends: Milkshake Muddle (DVD) with Free Toy Train for only $6. Select site-to-store shipping to get free shipping, too! That's a pretty sweet deal on its own.

But here's where the deal gets sweeter. If you haven't ever signed up for Ebates, you can do so now and then find Walmart under the list of stores on the Ebates site. When you shop and make your first purchase through Ebates, you'll get a $5 sign-up bonus, plus 1% back on all purchases from Walmart.com! That means that after you get your Ebates check (it may take awhile, because you have to earn $10 of rebates from online purchases before they issue the check), you'll end up paying only $1 for this Thomas DVD and train set!

If you want to snag this deal, you'll need to hurry. There were initally three DVDs to choose from, and two have already sold out!
