We've got a busy weekend ahead so I just couldn't convince DH to take a moment to let me take a picture of our shop. It was a big shop where we filled over 7 bags and saved $190! But, I can share my list which shows how it all happened. We went to the store near us that I would have to say is the most coupon friendly since they accept Publix coupons expired up to 30 days. I saved all my "expired" deals for this shop and there were five of them - Dasani water 1 L, Dove Deodorant, Qtips, Carefree and Voskos yogurt. All used expired stacking PQs from the past YAF and GAB flyers, plus the Qtips were from the love to shop, love to save booklet. Again, I encourage all of you to ask at your store if they will please accept expired coupons.
Anyway, we got the last of the foil pans so I think most of you will have to get rainchecks for these since only 2 varieties are on BOGO this week. I used the Beneful raincheck since the TQ expires tomorrow and I didn't want the drama of using an expired coupon with a raincheck next week. I was excited to see the new Crystal Light flavors Appletini and Mojito are included in the BOGO sale. The CL promotion is back on FB so if you can get the $2 MQ its a moneymaker this week.
As I was adjusting my spreadsheet to my actual shop, I kept getting a difference - my list is negative and my shop I ended up paying exactly $3.00. I finally found the error, they charged me for 5 Mrs Pauls fish that are BOGO this week, so my receipt has a $5.99 extra charge. I'll have to get a refund, hopefully they'll trust I didn't buy 5 when even numbers typical for BOGO deals. I don't really have any other way to prove it except tell them to look at the video. My smartphone app, Grocery Tracker was showing I should have been negative too so thats a sign to check the receipt, which of course I didn't do right away.
My DH complains when I want to take a picture and link up my shops asking what good it does. I tell him it brings traffic to my blog, but then he says so what. Well, now I have a good reason - it forces me to review my shop for errors and today I caught a mistake, a big one $5.99.
Good luck on your shops!
