Safeway Shopping Trip 3/16

This is something that I thought I would never say but I wanted to go to Safeway today.  I looked at the paper last night and they had Danimals Yogurt, Doritos and Ritz on sale.  I pulled out my coupons last night and I was ready to go!  I dropped my son off at school and he was running for the door so I had plenty of time to get all my errands done.  I found everything that I needed at the store plus a container of Country Crock Pumpkin Spread for $0.99.  I did one check out with 4 bags of Doritos, 2 boxes of Ritz, Country Crock and 2 packages of yogurt.  My total was $8.64 after sales and coupons (savings $25.21 or 75%).

I looked at my receipt while walking everything out to the car and the yogurt was on sale for $0.58 after store sale, store coupon, and manufacturers coupon so I put the stuff in the car and grabbed some more coupons and decided to get another 2 yogurts and 4 Doritos.  I splurged and got the taco chips for myself in case you see the different colored bag in the back.  While at the store, I ran into one of my coupon buddies in the chip aisle.  I gave her two of my Doritos coupons which helped her and made sure that I wouldn't come back and buy more (plus they expire on 3/17 so I wanted to make sure that they got used)!!!  I did my second check out and it was $4.52 (savings $18.82 or 81%).  I know that I shouldn't be excited by this many chips but I really was and I hope that we can make them last for a few months and not have to get other junk food :)  Total OOP $13.16!!!
