My Shopping Trip–5/11/12

I have not had a big personal shopping trip in a long time.  The deals I have been getting have been a fuelperks! deals here and there and perishable items that we need.  We have had a busy year, and we have been eating down my stockpile and eating out more than I would like to admit.

This afternoon after I picked up Natalie from school I took all three kids to MARTIN’S.  We started off our almost two hour visit by hitting the cafĂ© and bathrooms.  (Those stops alone took up 45 minutes.)  After making sure that there wouldn’t be anyone asking to go to the bathroom when we had a cartful of groceries and on the other side of the store, or any cries for a snack because they were so hungry we got started on our shopping list.  Megan and Michael had a blast driving the “car shopping cart” and Natalie was the official list holder and proudly walked around telling me what to get and how many of each item.

So, here is a picture of my haul and a breakdown of the deals, prices are after sales & coupons:

DSC_9179

  • (8) Sugar Free Snack Packs = $8 (earned $0.20/gallon in fuelperks!)
  • (2) Arm & Hammer Crystal Packs = $4.25
  • (2) Push Pops = $1.30 (not pictured, but a reward for the girls being helpers in the store)
  • (2) Mission Tortillas = $3
  • (1) GIANT Brand Shredded Cheese = Free with purchase of 2 Mission Tortillas
  • (2) GIANT Zip top Bags & (2) GIANT Brand String Cheese = $5.58 (Part of the Buy $8 of our brand items and get $3 off instantly)
  • Disney Princess Tiana Barbie Doll = $4.35 (An Angel Tree or Toys for Tots gift for Christmas 2012)
  • (2) Dole Butter Bliss Salad Blends = $1.90 (each bag had a $1 off store sticker and then there were $0.55/1 blinkies in the produce section)
  • (9) Shadybrook Farm Ground Turkey (1.3lb) = $35.91 (earned $1.20/gallon in fuelperks!)
  • (2) Value Packages (~3lbs each) of 90% Lean Ground Beef = $11.64  (The packages had been $12.05 and $12.13 each before the markdown!)
  • (2) Edy Fruit Bars = $3.50
  • (2) Nestle Drumstick Cones = $3.50
  • (4) Coffee-Mate Creamers (16oz)  = $5.06 (I earned a $4 Catalina at checkout)
  • Rotisserie Chicken = $4.01 (Manager’s Special, Usually $5.99)

Shelf Price (Before sales, coupons, or tax) = $158.62

Final Total (After sales, coupons, before tax) = $87

Total Savings = $71.62 (55%)

Total fuelperks! earned from this shopping trip= $1.50* = $30 in free gas!

*($1.40 from purchasing select items and $0.10 from hitting $100 in store purchases)

So, not a bad haul.  I may not have had a huge savings percentage, but when you take into account that I had a little over $50 in just meat, plus a $4 gift we did pretty well.  Now, I get to make oodles of turkey taco meat, turkey chili, and meatballs with the ground beef and turkey to stock my freezer for nights that I don’t have time to or just don’t want to cook.

Did you find any great deals this week?  Do you have any recipes for ground turkey that I can make ahead and stick in the freezer?  Please feel free to share.  :)

MARTIN’S fuelperks! $0.50/gallon bonus in Richmond–offer ends 4/16

DSC_9173

Did you see this coupon/sticker on the front page of the Times Dispatch yesterday.  Did you perhaps look at it and say, well that is a good deal, but how can I maximize my savings?  Remember in Richmond with a 20 gallon maximum the additional $0.50/gallon is $10 worth of gas. 

I like to combine these bonus deals with the current fuelperks! deals.  It is a double dip and I walked out of the store with enough fuelperks! (because of my previous balance) to almost get two complete 20 gallon fill-ups (and yes that is with gas at ~$4/gallon).

DSC_9176

This is what I bought last night from the Westpark location.  I did not clear the shelf, there were lots left.  The actual tissue aisle was empty, but the aisle where they feature the fuelperks! deals for the week was completely stocked. 

 

IMG_0406[1]

Yes – I bought a grand total of 42 boxes of Puffs tissues.  That put me over the $50 mark to redeem the bonus coupon.   I paid $55.13 (after tax), but I earned $3.30 in fuelperks! - that is $66 worth of gas just in this one transaction.  I see this as a $10.87 moneymaker!

Ok, I know I still have skeptics who think I have gone into crazy lady mode buying 42 boxes of tissues, but I have 3 kids and a box of tissues may last a a few days at our house.  If you are like us you have several boxes of tissues throughout the house. 

Yes, I spent $55 and change for tissues.  But, it is something that my family will need and use and it also earned me free gas, another thing we will need and use.  I have a storage area I can keep the extra tissues.  We aren’t going to be creatively hiding them under the beds or other places.  It will also be great to just go shop from my stockpile in the fall when we need to send tissues to school.  Not to mention I can and probably will donate some of these to either a homeless shelter that our church is working with or to my girls’ schools. 

Do you have other plans or ideas for hitting the $50 mark and getting your additional $0.50/gallon fuelperks! bonus?  Please feel free to share if it won’t work out this week maybe we can use it the next time we get a $0.50/gallon bonus coupon.

Happy Shopping!
