I stopped at Walmart first, because they open earliest. All Halloween was 50% off. I bought a bunch of candy: Skittles, Starburst and Gummy candies. All were $1 each and I used $1/2 coupons. So each bag was $.50, these coupons were in the Sunday inserts. I bought lightsticks $.50 each, Halloween panty hoses $1.75 each, teal lights a $1 each, and I splurged I bought a battery operated Halloween Candelabra. It was $7, a little guilt because I don't need any more decoration. BUUUTT it was so cool, I couldn't leave it behind. I bought a Ghost pillow and blanket for Nicci for xmas. It is so great having a ours school colors and ghost as our mascot... I can get great deals at Halloween for school!!
Then I went over to Target and to my surprise there candy was only 30% off. I did get a couple of bags of Nestle candy because I had a couple coupons that were in some of the bags of candy I opened for Nicci's Halloween party. Regular sized bagged candy was $1.88 that isn't the greatest price. But I would have bought the candy before Halloween if I had those coupons then. I bought some orange and black striped tights for Homecoming next year. I bought orange solo cups for $2.99 used $.75 coupon printed from smartsource.com I bought orange and black straws, plastic forks,s spoons, knives. napkins, table covers and plates. Nothing was over a dollar. All of these will be Halloween parties and Niccis graduation. I won't buy any of this type of stuff at full price or even on sale. Only on clearance. I also found a roll of black streamers for $.75. Then the dollar spot green dot items were 75% off. So I got a few scrapbooking things and a bunch of packages of fall leaves for $.25 each. And on sale was Lady Antebellum Christmas CD for $6.99. This is a Target exclusive so I don't think the library will be getting it so I bought it. Another splurge!! I used $6.88 in coupons so it's like using the coupons paid for the CD!!!! Its all in the way of thinking!! LOL!!!!!
Tomorrow is my sons birthday and I want to make butter cream frosting for his cake or cupcakes (I don't know which one I will be making) and I didn't have any butter. Walmarts cheapest butter was $2.75 a pound. I just hate spending that much on butter. So Pick n Save has a deal if you buy 3 Pillsbury Grands for $4.98/3 I would get a free pound of butter. There butter was $3.19 a pound...crazy!!! Anyway I bought the 3 Grands and they had $.30/3 coupon on package so I used that. Total for the 3 Grands and pound of butter $4.68..
Then off to Piggly Wiggly to get there weekly deals. Get this I was in the spaghetti sauce isle and guess what there was??? A blinkie machine with Pillsbury Grand coupons $.75/3!!!!! Grrr!! I grabbed a bunch! Anyway... Eileen Halloween taffy $.99, Food Club Hot Chocolate free after Larry's Piggly Wiggly coupon printed from their website, Food Club Taco Seasoning $.39 each on sale, Indian Summer Apple Cider $.99 on sale, KC Master Piece BBQ sauce on sale for $.50 each.... and get this there was a coupon for $1 off charcoal on the bottle. The checker started taking it off. I said I didn't buy the charcoal so you won't be able to use it. She said "they" said we can take them any way!! Wow so I got paid $.50 to buy it. I should have went back for more, but I really wanted to go home. Next time I will see if they have more and hopefully they will be on sale. Mt Dew case $4.99 with ad coupon, Piggly Wiggly buns $.79 each on sale and a gallon of milk for $1.69 with ad coupon. Saved $9 and spent $14.
More deals on Wednesday!!!
Oops I forgot at Target they had Halloween Oreos for $1.49 each and I used $1/2 coupon from the Sunday inserts. So each package was a $1 for OREOS!!! Good deal and they freeze great!!
