My $12 Challenge: Shaw’s and Hannaford Shopping Trips on Sunday Night

I use affiliate links in some of my posts. I may earn a commission if you use my links. Full disclosure.

 

These shopping trips are part of my $12 Challenge (see here)

3 boxes Mueller’s pasta, reg $1.25, sale $.79 each
2 HeluvaGood dips in reduced dairy, reg $2.19, reduced to $1 each
2 Hood cottage cheese, I think reg $1.99 each, reduced to $1 each
2 bags Fresh Express Harvest Peach Kit salad, reg $2.79 or more, reduced to $.99 each
1 packet Kool-Aid in reduced grocery, $.13
Used (3) $.55/1 Mueller’s pasta coupons

Used (1) $1/2 Hood cottage cheese coupon
Used (2) $.55/1 Fresh Express coupons (email me)

Total before discounts and coupons was at least $17.82
the register did a funny thing with tax as it sometimes does when using coupons and I ended up with a negative balance of $.11, so they paid me!
After discounts and coupons I paid ZERO and got an $.11 overage

1 package (.60lb) beef bologna from the deli, $2.09

After discounts and coupons total was ZERO
I paid just $.04 tax
I also got a $1 off produce catalina coupon

at Hannaford on 1/15, Transaction 2
2 small cans Hannaford brand dog food, $.50 each, total $1.00
Used $1 off any Hannaford purchase coupon

Total before discounts and coupons was $1.00
After discounts and coupons total was ZERO
I paid just $.05 tax
I also got a $1 off produce catalina coupon

My total for the two transactions at Hannaford was just $.09 tax
I found a dime in the parking lot so I ended up with a penny overage :O)
I’ve decided when I find coins in the parking lot while shopping for this challenge, I’m putting them in the pot in honor of my father (see why here)

Tonight I bought a total of $23.82 worth of stuff before taxes
My total OOP was ZERO with a total overage of $.12

Here’s where I stand with my $12 Challenge after tonight’s transactions:

Total purchases so far before tax is $162.11
Total OOP so far including tax is $3.98
I still have $8.02 cash plus $3.00 ExtraBucks for CVS, so I have $11.02 total left to spend!
