Super Saver Saturday-Great Deals at Bag ‘n’ Save!

   Attention Shoppers!! What a great trip we had to Bag ‘n’ Save this week. Because next week is a holiday week all the stores are running their ads through Thursday the 24th instead of Tuesday the 22nd so you have extra time to score some great deals. Most of the sales this week were rather ho hum, but for some reason Bag ‘n’ Save decided to throw in a couple of biggies. Joel and I were out on a mini date/shopping trip and swung in so I could use the in-store coupon. I usually price match to this store since is out of my way, but since we were in the area and they had such a sweet store Q I stopped in. I just want to say that I love shopping with my hubby, especially when I am 7 months pregnant!

Here’s the breakdown of what I/we scored:

7 Kraft Cheese Shredded $1.30 each – $1/3 in-store Q – $1/2 MQ = $0.47 each = $3.29

11 Kraft Cheese Block $1.30 each – $1/3 in-store Q – $1/2 MQ = $0.47 each = $5.17

12 Stove Top Stuffing $0.89 each = $10.68

3 Bags Kraft Marshmallows $0.88 each = $2.64

4 Dz Eggs $0.87 each – BOGO Free Q (This was IP from awhile back put out by some egg coalition or something. It’s no longer available)

Total before Coupons: $39.33

Total After Store and MQ’s: $23.72

I only actually paid $21 and change (I don’t have the receipt with me). The best that I can figure is that she entered the egg coupons wrong, because if you take out the eggs completely the total is about right. The only thing that would have made this even better is if I had put two and two together and realized since we were taking Joel’s car my grocery bags were not in the trunk like they are in my car. Bag ‘n’ Save gives $0.05 per bag so with the three bags needed I would have save an additional $0.15!

Also, they have Green Giant Valley Fresh Steamers on sale for $0.69 a bag, a great deal in and of itself, but what makes it sweeter is that in last Sunday’s coupons there is a $0.40/1 MQ making it just $0.29 per bag! I will be price matching this at Wal-Mart on Sunday when I go to finish my shopping while hubby watches the kiddo!

 Did you get any great deals this week? Feel free to share!

New Aldi’s Store

AldiHave you heard the great news?!?

A new Aldi’s store is opening on 30th and Sorensen Parkway! Finally and Aldi’s on my sid of town. I have enjoyed shopping there in the past but it has always beena special trip since they are all 20 min away in all the wrong directions. There just hasn’t been one close to where I do any of my shopping. But now, oh now, there will be a shiny new Aldi’s just minutes from my door!

Aldi’s is a no frills store where you have to bring your own bag or purchase one of theirs for $0.05-0.10 a bag. Also don’t forget to bring your quarter if you want to use a grocery cart. Simlpy insert your quarter into your cart and it will be released. When you are done bring it back, hook it up and you will get your quarter back. They mostly don’t carry name brand products but they have great everyday low prices on bread, baking supplies, produce and dairy products. Even lower than Wally World.

The new Aldi’s on 30th is having an open house on Friday Oct 30th from 11am-4pm. Nothing will be for sale but they will have samples to try and will be giving away free gifts! The Grand Opening is Monday November 2nd. Some of you were luck like me and received a coupon for $5/$30 purchase in the mail. If you live in the area and haven’t received one yet keep your eyes peeled. You never know, you just might get one.

The exact address is 4801 N 30th st

Regular store hours are Mon-Sat 9am-8pm, Sunday10am-7pm.

I’m still here

  Just in case you were wondering I haven’t fallen off the face of the earth. I am striving to put the house in workable order so that I am not always playing catch up and instead am merely maintaining. I know this will not always be the case but it is a goal. Previously everytime I dedicated time to the blog there was something that was falling behind, usually the dishes or the laundry. I am starting this week on a good foot so I hope to have a couple of chunks of time to dedicate to writing and compiling for this blog. Thank you for you patience.
