A Minimalist - Stockpile Sunday

August 9 , 2015 

This week I did not need much of anything At Publix grocery store so while I was teaching my sister how to use coupons I found a few things I could use to add to the stockpile , using coupons of coarse .

But I did have a plan for Target because I did need to get dog food and they had an awesome sale going on , with coupons of coarse !

I also found a good deal on fruit and we were out so I did spend a few dollars at Aldi`s without coupons , but only on their sale items .

Here is the breakdown and what I saved and how I used the coupons .

Target 

First transaction  

2- 16.5 pound bags of little bites dog chow by Purina on sale $10.99 each = $21.98 - Used two $4.00 off one mft. coupons  little bites dog chow = $15.18 tax included 

Promotion - Buy 2 Purina dog foods 16 pounds or more and get a $10 gift card back  = $5.18 for two bags of Dog food .

Second Transaction -

4 - 12 packs of Diet Pepsi $4.95 each - On sale 4 for $10.00 = $11.00 tax included  - No coupon used but I paid with the $10 gift card I just got from dog food deal and out of Pocket was $1.00 

Total before sale and coupons and deals was $48.14

I paid - $16.18

 Savings of - $31.96

I paid $11.07

A savings of $46.63

*******************************************************

Adli`s always has the best sale on produce and I have learned to shop there for the best savings AND if they are out I can price match at Walmart .

4 -Peaches .25 each = $1.00

4- Nectarines .25 each ( look at note ) = .75

4- Purple plums .25 each = $1.00

3 - Bananas .39 per pound = $1.17

1 bag - Black seedless grapes $2.38 two pound bag = $2.38

NOTE : my Aldi`s was out of everything except the black grapes so I priced matched at walmart but the Nectarines were cheaper ! .50 per pound so I got 4 for .75 . 

I lost my receipt but you can see things were extremely cheap and I spent $6.38 + tax = $6.94

Now lets total my shopping day  :

Total = $112.78

I Paid $34.19 

Savings = $79.59

Now thats how I like to stockpile with coupons and sales .
