  I know, I know!  I just bought cereal last week.  But with all my company I've had lately, I will use this up fast.  Plus we all have our favorites and frosted mini-wheats are my husbands.  But how can you beat only 0.54 cents a box!  As some of you may know, Tide is the only detergent I can use (as per my high maintenance hubby), so when they come out as a ***** 5-star deal, it's stock up time.  I compared these little 50 oz. bottles to the Costco 170 oz. bottles.  I paid .06 cents an oz. and Costco would've cost me .11 cents an oz.  So if I would've bought a 50 oz at .11 cents it would've cost me $5.50.   Instead I paid $3.49, so in essence I saved $8.04 just buying the smaller bottles at Albies with a sale and my coupons!  That's a no brainer!  If you want to compare Costco prices check out

   Many of you will not know about the McCormick Catalina right now.  I found a great scenerio on Fabulously Frugal which states the following...
Buy 4 at 4.99 BOGO   $9.98
use 4 $1/1 from 
coupons.com (must use 47265 zip code)get $2.50 Catalina back
  Vanilla extract comes out to .87 cents each!
I think the catalina only works on extracts and food coloring cause I only got $1.50 cat. but I bought spices.  If anyone tries it out, let me know if it works.
  So my breakdown for the week...
Total value of purchase $120.95
Total saved          $77.70
Total Spent          $36.75
Total percentage saved    64%
  Plus!!! I got 3 coupons for free milk, and $6.50 in catalinas back!!!
