Winn-Dixie

Friday Night Bo dropped me off at Hobby Lobby and he head down to Winn-Dixie. When I got there he had hit the meat sale. I think his best deal was lamb for $1.63. Bo cooked it for Sunday lunch and it was excellent.
I can't believe it Bruno's is having triple coupons. I went there on Sunday, but I forgot to take a picture. As you can tell by how wet the paper is we had a ton of rain on Sunday morning.

I also messed up my CVS order this week so no picture of my purchase.

Happy Anniversary

Today is our third anniversary. Yes, we have heard it all about getting married on April Fool's.

Bo and I went on our not so cheap honeymoon to Hawaii.

It came

My P&G Coupon book came today. WOW! There are some great coupons in there I have already seperated them out and will put them in coupon book tomorrow.

CVS

Bo was really excited about this weeks CVS purchases.
What I purchased. Great deals this week or at least I thought they were.

Weekend Deals

CVS bargins = $10.00 out of pocket $13.00 back in Extra Bucks.
Started a coupon binder. I sure hope the $20.00 was well spent.

Walgreens - Redbox

Okay, Bo and I hate Walmart! (I'll get into our reasons in a later post.) We never ever go there, but we love Red box. So, we have made several trips to Walmart just to visit Red box, but the other night we pulled into the Walgreen's parking lot and we saw the this empty Red box. We both got excited. Now, we don't have to walk into any store and we don't have to fight for a parking place or anything. Red box is great and now that it is at Walgreen's it is prefect.

CVS

Sorry, this is so late, but this is what I purchased at CVS this week. I can't find all of the receipts, but I know that it took 3 transaction, and I spent around $12.00. I also got back $6.00 in extra bucks. I was lucky to have found the gift card coin purse at 90% off making them $0.39. I know that they will come in handy for a Bunko loser gift sometime.

Christmas Cards

Yes, these are my Christmas cards for December. No, I didn't purchase these at a great rate. I did one better than that, I got them for FREE! My boss and his wife were cleaning out their garage. He brought a box to work for us to go threw, and I found these. Now all I have to budget for is stamps, and the picture to go inside.

Coupons

We went and visited Bo's grandmother this weekend and she had a great surprise for me - coupons. There were six packs of coupons.

Weekly Menu

I have found that Bo and I stick to a menu better if I have some idea for the month. Some thing always comes up and we move dinner items to the next month. That has always happened with my monthly plan and now it seems to be happening with my weekly plan, but we are still trying to stick with it.

Monday - Microwave Meatloaf, Mashed potatoes, & corn (hold over from last week) I'm not a big fan of meatloaf, but I'm willing to try this since it is one of Bo's favorite. His mom gave me the recipe. Hopefully, it will be as good as hers.
Tuesday - Frozen Shrimp Scampi, Mac & Cheese (I'm going to sewing and need something quick)
Wednesday - Honey Bar-B-Q Ribs, Salad & Baked Potatoes
Thursday- Leftovers
Friday-Mexican Pizza & Salad
Saturday - Steaks, Baked Potatoes & Salads

I'm going to try and stick with this plan this week.

Found It

I had read on Hot Coupon World that perfume gift sets were 90% at some stores. I went to 4 different stores before I found them. I know that this sounds odd but I love the smell of Fantasy by Britney Spears, but I would never pay full price. I am willing to give up a $1.99 for it. Thanks Hot Coupon World for letting me know about this great deal.

March's Menu

I guess I should have posted our monthly menu, but after I got it all set Bo came in and changed some of the plans for the month. So this our menu for this week.
March 1st - Lunch - Left over Chinese
Dinner - Left over homemade Deep Dish Pizza and a Salad

Weekend Update

First off it snowed today, which in south Alabama is a big deal.
Bo and I visited Goody's Clothing going out of business sale. While we were there they marked down all of there items to a dollar. I found 9 items that I really liked. I won't feel bad if I only wear them once or twice at that price.

I also went to CVS. I had to get some real medical stuff, but while there I found these bathrobes that someone on Hot Coupon World mentioned they were ringing up at 90% off. Man, what a deal a bathrobes for $1.49. The cream one is going to my mother who always wears a bathrobe. I think the pink one will be part of a gift.

We also visited Winn-Dixie. This weeks managers special was pork tenderloin. They were a little over $7.00 and a little over $6.00 a piece. What deals they have on Friday night? Who knew that grocery shopping would become part of our night out?

Also our Circuit City has 8 days left so Bo and I plan to make several trips there this week. We have our eye on a few things.

Friday Night Fun

Bo and I had fun tonight,and we found tons of bargains.

First we went to Circuit City. All we really found were DVDs marked down to 50% off. I got all the ones below for $24.00 with tax. Unless we were renting from the Red Box these were way cheaper than going to Movie Gallery.

Then we went to Winn-Dixie and we use some free coupons to get this Dr. Pepper and Oreo Cakesters I tried the Cakesters and I don't really like them, and I was so looking forward to trying them. I thought they were just a little disappointing.


As we were getting our items out of the cart to check out the meat manager made an announcement that he had Whole Chickens for $0.59 a pound. Bo told me to go get one, but I told him he had to go with me. We put our items back in the cart and headed to meat department.
This what we left with...

Split Breast - $2.09

Pork Stir Fry - $1.71

Pork Stir Fry - $1.83

Beef Spare Ribs- $2.83

And what we actually went to the store for - Pork Shoulder Country Style Ribs Buy One Get One Free - $9.11

I went to CVS this week and I got all of this for $4.75 OOP. I earned $16.99 in Extra Bucks. I'm going to purchase more Mylanta , if they have it.

CVS

Coupon Book

Did anyone else get this coupon book. There are some great coupons in it.

Books-A-Million

Last night Bo and I went to Books-A-Million after dinner mostly to walk around and to see if they had a book I was looking for. While we were there I spotted their Christmas clearance. I purchased all of this stuff for $11.00 with tax. The gingerbread man is called a Puzz Pal. It's like a stuffed animal that is also a puzzle. I just loved the Moose and he was only a dollar so I had to get him. The UNO game was $3.00 and it is Disney which makes it even cooler. There calendars were on sale for $3.00, but they didn't have much left to choose from so I picked the Hello Kitty one. Who doesn't love Hello Kitty. The Ty Beanie Babies will be part of the shoe box gifts we put together.
