Quick Kroger Trip - Couldn't Resist


So, I've been reading about all these other bloggers getting this Pillsbury deal and I couldn't resist to stop into Kroger one last time this week to get it. I could kick myself that I forgot to do it in separate transactions, so I only got one $3 on your next order catalina! But I found a ton of Manager's specials, so it wasn't all so bad! Here's how I did:

(6) small Pillsbury biscuits - $0.59 each
-used (2) $0.75/3 coupons from blinkie

(6) small Pillsbury cinnamon rolls - $1.00 each
-used (2) $0.75/3 coupons from blinkie

Hot dog bun/rolls - Manager's Special - $0.79 (will freeze)

1/2 gallon skim milk - Manager's Special - $0.90

1/2 gallon chocolate milk - Manager's Special - $1.15

(2) 4pk. Danimal Yogurt Crush Pack - Manager's Special ($0.75 and $1.19)
-used (2) $0.55/1 coupons from blinkie

Total before Coupons = $14.32
OOP = $10.22
Received $3.00 oyno catalina
Spent = $7.22 or 50% Savings!

Note: If I would've done the Pillsbury's in two transactions I could've saved $3 more...annoying!!!!

Next stop was Rite Aid. Here's how I did:

Then we decided to go to Big Lots to use the 20% off coupon I posted about earlier. I think I found a great deal. I've been keeping my eye out for a crib mattress. (I only have 3 weeks left, so I'm so glad I found this deal!) Big Lots had a Serta Perfect Slumber crib mattress for $60. With my 20% off coupon, it was only $48. Not bad! What do you think?
