I had a baseball tourney this past weekend that all three of my boys played in. I also took in my little cousin (his mom was out of town), and my sister and her family. It was so crazy. 21 baseball games in 3 days! Whew! I did survive! This weekend in particular I was feeling very grateful for Grocerysmarts, coupons, and sales past. I had plenty of food to feed everyone, snacks, drinks, and sandwiches for the games too! These tournaments can be very expensive for one not prepared. If I wasn't prepared I would be going to Wal-Mart at the last minute getting snacks, and dashing to fast food joints grabbing burgers between games for my family. That gets sooooo expensive! So I estimated that my family saved over $200.00 just this weekend on food. That is so awesome!
My stock up item for the week at Albies was of course...Cereal. At $0.42 cents per box, they can't be beat! Here is my breakdown...
Total Value of purchase $138.87
Total Saved $83.38
Total Spent $55.49
Total percentage saved 60%
Not bad considering I bought quite a few regular priced items I needed
Who got a hold of the Powerade at Smiths this week? As soon as these crates came into the store, they were gone! While I was there, 10 crates of Powerade came in. The clerk told me it would be gone in 2 hours easily. Buy 8 and get $4.00 off. The limit was 8 boxes. Crazy good deal at $0.25 cents each! This deal goes on for another week too, so just keep checking.
Total value of purchase $145.5
Total saved $112.8
Total Spent $ 32.70
Total percentage saved 77%

I love your blog and look at it often but I have noticed you do most of your shopping at Albertson's. I live in Herriman UT and used to do some shopping there as well but now that it's gone, would your second choice be Smith's?
ReplyDeleteI too got in on the powerade deal!! I also got 16 boxes of Ronzoni pasta for FREE, and spent $2 on 8 Ronzoni Whole Wheat pasta!

Brittany, I would definitely do Smiths. If you stick to one store consistently you'll see everything make its rounds on sale. Our Albertsons hasn't been the same since the switchover either.
ReplyDeleteHeather, I did get the Ronzoni pasta too! Such a great deal!
