Walmart for less than $26.00




After scouring the Meijer ad yesterday and looking at my coupons, I came to the conclusion that this was not a good week to hit Ft. Wayne. So this morning I made a couple of stops (kmart, CVS and Walmart). I went to CVS because they had the Kleenex w/lotion on sale for 89cents- I had 40 cent coupons so I went looking for 4 boxes-- they only had 1 box! I was looking to score free tissues with the help of an 1.98 extra care buck-- OH well, I paid .59 for 1 box of tissue and left. I then headed to Walmart where I had all coupons in hand and picked up the following:

3 boxes of Kleenex (pricematch CVS to .89, use 40 cent coupons= 1.50
7 bxs of General mills cereal (price match to Meijer 1.80 box, had 3.00 coupons= 6.80
4 Del Monte Fruit naturals 9price match to Meijer 1.00 each, had 2.10 coupns = 1.90
1 Country Bob steak sauce 2.69 had FREE coupon so, nada
2 fruit snack pkgs 1.98 each BUT- I found free coupons WYB 3 General mills cereal-nada
1 bag 2.2lbs of IAMS cat food, 6.97, FREE from home mail cpn-(thanks Lindsay!!)
2 boxes of Capri sun on roll back 2/3.00
1 multi pack of oreos, 3.50-- now I had a coupon for 2.00 off wyb 2 capri suns and a multi pack so total for juice and cookies: 4.50
2 pkgs of Kotex panti liners 1.00 each, but free after 1.00 cpn -I'm saving these to give to Beaman home- great charity item.
2 Gillette fusion razors - not battery operated - 4.94 each, had 2 4.00 coupons so- 2.00 for those.
4 pkgs of Ortega taco seasoning .58 each, had 75/2 coupons so .68 total for 4
3 bags of Steamfresh Corn 1.23 each, had 1.00 coupons so total .69 for 3 bags
and lastly I bought a pkg of Reeses pieces for Alex's Kindergarten class- They hare having a Halloween day and I get to bring in stuff for decorating sugar cookies- those should be good on top.
All in all my total at Walmart before coupons: $59.87 after coupons: $23.50, add tax and I walked out for $25.68



Now- I also went to Kmart-- I swear sometimes I hate going there too..... anyway-
For 7.00 I got:
3 bags of Licorice (with movie points on them)
1 glade oil air freshener
2 Max factor eyeliners
2 Max factor Lip sticks/gloss
1 4 pack del monte oranges
and a gallon of OVERPRICED 3.76 milk!
The makeup was buy one get one free PLUS I had 2 coupons, 1 for buy one get one free and one for 2.00 off any eye,
I had a free coupon for the air freshener and I had 12.00 in catalina coupons from my previous trip to kmart from glade. I shouldn't have spent that much at kmart, but my lipsticks were 2 different prices and she took only 8.99 off from one of my coupons leaving me to pay 2.00 for 2 lipsticks but I did get another 4.00 catalina from the glade purchase-- I might go back for more makeup-- I need to skim through my coupons! My next trip to kmart will be better-- watch and see!
OH-- and I did stop at Owens for toilet paper-- paid .07 cents for 2 pkgs! I love me some coupons!
