Bargain & Blog Drought!

The deals have been few and far between lately. Today however, I had a pretty decent shopping experience and thought I'd share.....
I got all this for $25.24 at Krogers today. 5 x Kraft Shredded Cheese, 2 x Kraft Singles,
Bananas, Tombstone Pizza, 3 x Frosted Flakes, 1 Febreeze, 1 laundry Detergeant, 4 x doughnuts, 1 eggo waffles, 1 12-pk Pink Lemonade.

A quick dash into Target got me all these goodies for $3.50 = 5 x Dawn, 1 frozen dinner, 2 halls cough drops, 6 Kashi Waffles.

I went on a bigger shopping spree at Food City and spent another $121.87 but will receive a $10 refund for P&G products. I stocked up on hamburger, beef roast, laundry detergeant, and a few other items. So all in all not a bad week.... even though a little over budget I am satisfied because I got quite a few items for stockpile.

WalMart Deals today (3/30)
My friend Diann sent me the $5/1 Iams Q's to use for her little dog Cha Cha because she is in Maryland and couldn't find them there. Even if she had found them we both weren't sure how she would haul them home to Tn as her PTCruiser is already stuffed to the gills with all the deals she has gotten at Rite Aid and CVS.

So todays trip:
4 x Iams $5 (used $5/1 Q x 4)
4 x AirHead Xtremes .64 (used .55/1 Q x 4)
2 x True North $2.97 (used $1/1 Q x 2)
2 x Wrigley gum .96 (used FREE Q x 2)
Total after tax & Q's = $7.11
Our sales tax is so high its ridiculous!!!

Buzz!

I received this buzz kit in the mail today from Buzzagent. Sometime back buzzagent contacted me and asked me to have my daughter (13) to register to do this campaign. She was extremely excited to do so. We weren't sure what to expect in the kit and were quite pleased to find that the kit included these two full size Clean & Clear products and a nice make-up bag. It also included three trial size packets of the make-up remover wipes and some coupons to share. We already buzzed two people and gave them each a trial packet and coupon.

Contest

Are you in need of a new purse? If so rush on over to Frugal and Fabulous and enter her contest to win a new M. Avery Designs shoulder bag. "Each bag is completely one of kind and uses 6 remnant pieces of upholstery fabric (3 in the front and 3 in the back), and the handles are made from leather fabric remnants so they will hold up to LOTS of wear and tear. The top of each bag is gathered so that the bottom is slightly larger than the top, creating gorgeous affect. Each is lined with vintage fabric and has a large open pocket inside and each closes with a large, strong magnetic snap. The leather strap is about 22" long and just long enough to wear over your shoulder, but not too long so you can carry it in your hand as well."

WAGs basket trip

My friend castingbread sent me a free item Q for any SCJohnson's new Nature Source product and I was lucky enough to find 2 more Garnier $1/1 Q's. I had loaned my coupons to my favorite cashier/beauty adviser at Walgreens and had arranged to pick them up at the store today..... so I stopped by WAGs to make the magic happen. I used my Easy Saver Rebate card to cover my OOP ($1.97) the good news is that the SC Johnson product is included in the ESR this month and will qualify me for $1 refund.
