Whirly-gig shopping

Kinda like you’re running around all over so you can rush home and finish cleaning, laundry…oh, you know – Just a Normal Day!

Picked up 6 of the Smuckers at CVS – kinda figured I’d wait awhile on the Jif, don’tchaknow.  Each set of two was $4.09 after the $1/2 in today’s Red Plum.  Get back $3 ecbs on each transaction.  Limit one set per card.  After you’ve hit your limits, I’d advise hitting up Jewel for the same products, same 2/$5 with the $1/2 coupon (only for Smuckers) and get back a $1 OYNO cat.  Once you’ve hit the ecb limit at CVS, they lose the price edge.

I drove to the Bolingbrook Food4Less for the cheap LOL butter:  $2.48 lb when you buy ten of their mix and match items.  I chose 17 butters (’cause that was all the $1 blinkies I had) and three coffee creamers (.55 blinkies).  Threw in two packs of tortillas and my OOP came to $31.09.  eeekkk!  Well, let’s face it, $1.48 for butter is a very, very good price and it freezes well.

Jewel was a quick run for eight of the TGIF meals, four Dole pineapple, four Who Nu cookies, two V-8 juice, one Wild Harvest salad mix, bag of frozen broccoli and couple pounds of organic bananas.  Used the TGIF coupons, four FREE Dole coupons (from the mfr), $4 off the cookies, two .75 coupons for V-8 (from mfr) and three FREE cats for the bananas (.79), broccoli (1.99) and salad (up to $4).  Total OOP was $10.09, but I got $4 for the TGIF and a buck for each of the Dole and V-8 transactions.  So what should we claim?  $4.09?

Today is the last day of the 2/$4 Who Nu sale price, so if you want/need any, better stop in.  I took the last of the Oreo-type ones and got a rain check for 12 more.
