Food Lion trip

I'm a little bummed...I really thought I would make out great at Food Lion with the tripling this week. But unfortunately, all the coupons that I had that were able to triple were not on sale! But I did do ok...I saved more than I spent, which is now normal so I wanted to be extraordinary, but that didn't happen. The gentleman in front of me(yes,I said gentleman) had $65 in groceries and spent less than $3!! His wife went through earlier and she had around $70 in groceries and spent less than $5!! I was so envious!! But here is what I got.....

• 3 Ziplock Freezer bags(different sizes)($1.89 each also got a $2 off catalina when checking out)


• 1 Glad freezer bags($2.64)(I was kinda in need of freezer bags...could have done better if I waited for a sale)


• 1 Huggies wipes refill($5.24)


• 1 Hormel Compleats(FREE + overage of $0.25)


• 1 Jimmy Dean breakfast entrees($0.25)


• 1 Colgate kids toothpaste($0.24)


• 2 Gerber snack foods($1.51 each)(thanks for this coupon, Kristine!)


• 3 Yoplait trix yogurt($1.49 each)(not on sale but kids have been begging for this)


• 1 poptarts($0.35)


• 1 Oscar Meyer Flatbread($0.25)


• 1 Smithfield bacon($0.84)

I paid $25.20 and saved $30.46!! Everything I bought I used a coupon that could triple...I really wish I could have done better. Maybe after Sunday's paper, I'll be able to get a few more things free or really cheap. There wasn't a lot of people there but everyone that was there was flipping through their coupons just like me.
