My Albertson's Trip This Week


I went to Albertson's yesterday and wow what a trip!
I did so many transactions it was crazy.
I was suprised that I was only in the store for an hour.
My daughter was so good too (with the help of bribes).
Here's what I did:


30 Velveeta and Cheese Cups

Paid: $4.10 out of pocket
Got back $5.00 catalina, 50 box tops and a $2.00 survey




Then when I went to put my stuff in my car there was a really run over catalina for $5.00 oyno. I tried to turn it into the store but they told me to keep it since it was so beat up and they would just throw it away.

So for a couple of hours worth of work I got all of this for $9.01 out of pocket or about $.12 per item. And I still have $12.00 in catalinas and survey's left (if you count the one that I found). If you factor in the catalinas it is like I got paid $2.99 to shop. Very sweet!

Freddy Mac (AKA Fred Meyer) Trip


This week has been a very sucessful one being that all of the stores that I went to have had what I wanted. Above is the loot I got from Fred Meyer. I only paid 7.08 for all of it. I plan on adding half of the cough drops to my donation box (there is no way that my family needs that many; I bet there is another family out there who could use some though).
Here's the breakdown of the deal:

1 Tilllimook 2lb Cheese Brick 3.99 limit 1 (no coupon needed)

1 Fresh Whole Chicken .79 lb ( mine was 2.35)

6 Halls Cough drops 1.00 each
used 6- 1.00/1 halls or sugar free halls 20ct or larger SS
Free just paid tax


On a sad note I look in the toys and no Freddy Bear. See my post You'll find it at Fred Meyer for details.
