Sunday Shopping with My Mom

We are gonna be getting an ARCTIC Blast and the temp's may only hit -10 below tomorrow. We are also gonna be hit with yet another big snowstorm on Wednesday. Lovely. We have more snow than we know what to do with around here. So with all this wonderful weather, I decided to do some shopping today to hit the stores before I am snowbound. I also got to show my Mom what it's like when I go shopping.

First we hit Roche Bros. I only had 3 things on my list to get at Roche Bros. My Big Score for this trip


12 Pack Pop Tarts for only .90 after the Sale and Coupons.

My kids LOVE Pop Tarts and I can never have enough in the house. So I bought 4 of the 12 packs.

On sale for 2/$4.00 for a total of $8.00

I was lucky enough to have found peelies at Walmart yesterday for .55/1 Pop Tarts. Roche Bros is one of the grocery stores in my area that DOUBLES coupons. So I got $1.10 off each pack. So I only paid .90 for each. WOW.

I also picked up 4 10pk Capri Suns for $1.77 each. We normally use juice boxes in this house, but for that price I couldn't pass them up. Hopefully Mr J has no issues with these.

Finally I snatched up 2 boxes of Jolly Time Popcorn for .50 each.

Total at Roche Bros: 11.68


Off to Shaw's we went. I was crossing my fingers that certain items were included in the 4/$7.00 GM Deal. I also got to explain to my Mom why it is that I use the Self Checkout. LOL.

My Big Score at Shaw's was



4 boxes for .65 each. For most people this is an AWESOME Deal, maybe even an unheard of deal, but for the regular couponer this is actually on the high end of the price we pay for cereal. But whats so great about this for me, is this is our FAVORITE Cereal in this house, so anytime its on sale I stock up.

It goes like this.
4/$7.00 on Sale
(4) .55/1 Cinnamon Toast Crunch Internet Printable Coupon DOUBLED
Total = .65 each

I also grabbed 4 boxes of Chex Mix Snack Bars for .75 each. These were also included in the 4/$7.00 GM Sale. I used .50/1 Coupons that doubled.

Lastly I picked up 2 bags of Wise Potato Chips. These were on sale with BOGO. So they were 3.79 for two bags of chips. Then I used (2) .50/1 Coupons that doubled. So only 1.79 for 2 bags of chips.

Total at Shaws: 7.39

I love stocking up on items, makes me get a sense of peace..how sad does that sound LOL.

Snowed In.

Wow, I feel like I haven't posted in such a long time. Although its only been a few days. We got a snow/rain/ice storm here in Massachusetts yesterday. It was supposed to be the kids first day back to school after a 4 day weekend, but they had no school. It's been a long and draining 5 days in this house. Saturday we had an amazing party for my daughter. She was officially adopted by my husband. It was a special day for her and she had so much fun.












This of course was the highlight of our weekend.

Then of course we had Monday off from school. So I got the kids dressed and headed out to hit Rite Aid again for some more FREE Toilet Paper. Well they had signs up in my store stating a limit of 6 per household. No big deal, so I grabbed 6 4 packs and headed to the register. After she rang them in, I paid with previous UP Rewards and change, only 1 UP printed. Come to find out it was a limit of 1. So after a bit of confusion, I returned 5 of the 4packs and they gave me a $5 Gift Card cause they couldn't give me back the UP Rewards I used to purchase them with, cause they were already voided. UGH. Glad I was able to get some when the sale started on Sunday.

This brings us to Tuesday, NO school for the kids and more snow, rain and ice. So we stayed home in pajamas.

Finally the kids are back to school today and I am getting back to my normal routine. I am feeling much better and feel like I am accomplishing things. After dropping the kids off at school, I came home and made a phone call. I called to cancel our old Auto Warranty from the Rav4 we just traded in. I was able to score a pro-rated refund of $792.50. WOOHOO. I am so so so excited about that. Of course that put me in a good mood.

Did some errands this afternoon with Mr J. Went to Target and returned one of the Toy Clearance items I purchased last week. It was supposed to be for my neice for next Christmas. I was so excited about the 75% off that I didn't bother looking close enough at the actual present I purchased. I had initally thought it was a jewelry making kit, but after bringing it home, my lovely husband pointed out that it was candy jewelry and that it expired 10/11. LOL. So that was just not gonna work. I returned that item and I got 4 bottles of Soy Sauce for .84 TOTAL. I also bought a box of Quaker Oatmeal Kids Mix Kit for .75 after using a Target Q and a MQ. Figured it was cheap enough to see if the kids would like it.

We then ventured to Gap and Disney Store. I had to exchange some items that Miss K got at her party. She is almost 8 but is in a size 5/6. No biggie, I always love going to the Disney Store. We hit the Gap first. Come to find out the items I wanted to return were actually purchased at the Gap Outlet. LOL. Oh well. But I was able to exchange the items at the Disney Store. Now Mr J is fast asleep on the couch and I am ready to just sit and relax for the rest of the day.

Sorry I haven't posted many deals lately, I promise to get back into the swing of things :)
