Kroger Mega Event

This event started Sunday in some areas, and will start Wednesday in others...so check your ad.

This isn't everything this week at Kroger, but these are the things I will buy with the Mega Event

My Kroger  (Fort Worth ARea) doubles up to 50 cents, and triples up to 39 cents. They will double the first 3 "like" coupons, after that it will be redeemed at face value.

If you have never done a Mega event you must be items in increments of ten. When you buy 10 items, they automatically take 50 cents off of each item in that group of ten.

Non Mega Event Item

--Use .35/1 coupon from RP 8-14
--Makes it free (no overage on tripling of q's)

Mega Event Items
Chi-Chi's Salsa $1.49 ea
Use .50/1 coupon from SS 6-12
(Makes it .49 after double)

Now, I have to work it out to make it increments of 10 and make sure I do separate transactions so that all of my coupons double, but it should be a good trip!!

Cheap Toilet Paper

When I first moved out to Texas 2 weeks ago, we had to go to Walmart to buys some "needs". On of which was toilet paper. My mom taught me that the best toilet paper (price wise) is Scott because it has 1000 sheets per roll. You can usually find it for 50 cents a roll.

                                        
Since it was a need and I couldn't wait for a sale I bought a pack of 4 rolls for $4! I was sick, you can imagine.

Well this week you can get it super cheap at CVS. With or without coupons it is a great deal.

The Gas Card Promotion this week Spend $30 get a $10 gas card.

12 pack Scott Toilet Paper 7.47.

Buy 4 packs of Toilet Paper
Buy 1 box of Cheeze-It Crackers (our total must be at least $30 before tax)

Total = $31.88

Use 4 $1 off coupons from SS 8-14

Pay OOP = $27.88
Get back a $10 gas card

Makes it $17.88 or $4.47 for 12 rolls or 37 cents a roll.

Without Coupons You would

Pay OOP= $31.88
Get back a $10 gas card

Makes it $21.88 or $5.47 for 12 rolls or 46 cents a roll

Plus free cheeze-its with either purchase!

So maybe you don't want 48 rolls of toilet paper at your house, you could go in with 3 other friends and only have 1 pack at your house!!

Couponing in Texas!

Well we are finally getting settled in up here/over here. Couponing will be a little different here. It looks like we will have to hit several stores each week instead of just Publix like in Florida. But here is a taste of what can be done.
We got $6 boxes of cereal for $1.55 each
20 boxes of Hamburger Helper for 38 cents each
3 cans of Seattles Best Coffee for Free
And 1 Bottle of Chocolate Milk for free.

This was done at CVS (Coffee) and everything else was done at Brookshires.

The cereal was on sale for $2.50. IF you buy 6 boxes you get $3 off making it $2 ea. I then printed a coupon for $1/3 (twice) which made it $10 for 6 boxes. Then I had a coupon from the newspaper that said said $2 on milk when you buy 5 boxes of cereal. So the Chocolate milk was only $1.29 making it .71 cents overage. So I got the cereal $9.30 for 6 boxes.

Here at the Missions Training School I am buying a bunch extra of things so that all of the families can partake of the great deals. So don't worry--I don't plan to eat 20 boxes of HH by myself!
