I had a good run today! I was so worried that I would not find the items that I had carefully planned out, but Shaw’s had everything I wanted!
Walgreens was a different story. They had promised me 6 boxes of Velveeta Shells & Cheese and they were supposed to put them aside and call me. Well, they didn’t call and they had just one box left. They actually ran to Hannaford to get my 6 boxes! Talk about service!
At Walgreens:
(6) boxes Velveeta Shells & Cheese on sale 2 for $4
(1) $1/2 coupon from Sept Wags coupon book
the coupon in the book only needs to be scanned once and it takes the discount off all the boxes
(6) $1/1 Velveeta Shells & Cheese printable coupons (NLA)
I paid $3 and I got a $5 catalina from Kraft!
(4) packs Bic Cristal Bold pens at $1.99 each (they finally got them)
(1) rain check making the pens $.49 each
(2) $1/2 Bic Cristal Bold printable coupons (NLA)
Final price was FREE! I paid $.10 tax.
At Shaw’s (5 separate transactions):
(4) Fiber One Chewy bars on sale for $2.50 each
(4) $.80/1 Fiber One printable (might still be available?)
coupons doubled to $1.60 off
$2 Shaw’s instant savings
Paid $1.60 and I got $2 catalina from Fiber One!
(4) Fiber One Chewy bars on sale for $2.50 each
(4) $.60/1 Fiber One printable (might still be available?)
coupons doubled to $1.20 off
$2 Shaw’s instant savings
$2 catalina from previous transaction
Paid $1.20 and I got $2 catalina from Fiber One!
For this next transaction the Homestyle variety of mayo did NOT trigger the instant savings but it DID trigger the Kraft catalina. I offered to swap but they just gave me the $5 instant savings :O)
(6) Kraft Mayo on sale for $2.99 each
(4) Kraft American cheese slices on sale for $1.79 each
(6) $1/1 Kraft mayo printable coupons (NLA)

(10) bags Gevalia coffee on sale for $6.49 each
(5) BOGO Gevalia printable coupons (NLA)
the bogo coupons deducted $6.98 each
(2) $2 catalina that I found near the self scans
always check around self scan because people leave those cats in the machines and sometimes they end up on the floor!
$10 catalina from previous purchase
$3 catalina from previous purchase
I paid $13 and I got a $10 catalina from Kraft!
My total before savings and coupons was $212.21
I paid $31.90 out of pocket and I still have a $10 catalina for Shaw’s and a $5 catalina for Walgreens!
This is way over my budget, but a very good deal considering all the coffee I got! And the mayo! And the Crystal Light! And all the other stuff! Yes, a very good deal! :O)
Oh, and I got a big seafood platter at Weathervane with an upgrade to sea scallops (they put bay scallops in their platter). The total was 28.16 but I used my $10 birthday coupon and $10 gift certificate that Weathervane gave me last time for screwing up my order. I paid $8.16!
And now I’m baking my birthday cake :O)

I’m so glad you made out, great deals I was not happy at all at how they handled the GM sale!
Aha, it was the kind of Kraft mayo not the size that kept me from getting the $10 catalina. I got the olive oil mayo, which my husband and I love. That explains it.
