Rite Aid Trip 8/25

Rite Aid has been my favorite drug store since I began couponing a couple months ago, and today was no exception! With the help of Southern Savers, I was able to do some great matchups and take advantage of great sales, great rewards and great rebates! Here in Augusta, we get the "short" Rite Aid ad, which means a lot of the super cool deals weren't available to me. But I still did amazingly well!

Kroger Mega Event cont.

This week Kroger's continuing their Mega Event. I had my list all narrowed down (qualified for the Event 4 times!) with matching coupons, sales, catalinas, etc.

Of course, once we got to the store, there were a couple other deals on things we needed (milk, bread, zippies) and a couple things we didn't really need but were important nonetheless (ice cream, RC).

I used the self-checkout this time as I was doing three transactions due to the catalinas and I didn't want to hold up a clerked line. It worked out just fine and I felt a little less stressed doing it that way 'cause I wasn't holding anyone up and I could take my time and count items and ensure coupons cleared. The only hassle is that the attendant has to scan in all coupons herself. So after each transaction I'd hit the coupon button and then wait for her to come, take my coupons to her station and scan them. It worked out fine, just would be nicer if I could scan my own coupons!

Finally made it to Bi-Lo and wow.....

Bi-Lo is hard to shop at as their ad in the Sunday paper runs from Sunday through Tuesday. I typically shop on Wednesdays, so just miss the ad and don't have time to study the new one. This week though, I saw several deals at Bi-Lo, so adjusted my schedule to shop today. And am I glad I did! The deals all worked as they should, I found all the items I was looking for and saved a bunch!

New Kroger Mega Event This Week!

Great sales + E-coupons + Coupons + Catalinas = Happiness! 

Seriously, this was a great week at Kroger. I had some great coupons and combined with e-coupons and Kroger's new Mega event, well... wow!

Kroger's Mega event is Buy any 8 participating items, get $4 off instantly. I bought 16! So an extra $.50 off each of those 16 items... yay!

I even had an e-coupon that I didn't know would apply, so ended up getting deodorant for my hubby for free! Pretty sweet.

Kroger's Great Sales and a "Surprise" Catalina!

This week Kroger has a special Mega Event on P&G items. Buy 4, get $4 off immediately. I'd built my list to get 8 items, but one wasn't there and two others were different prices compared to what I'd seen on Southern Savers. So I scratched that and only did one set of 4. Still a great deal! Plus, General Mills cereal was on a special 3 Day Sale and select cereals were 50% off. I had some coupons too, so that dropped the price even further. Of course, most of the cereal's I wanted weren't on the sale.... but I still got some great deals!

wellness+ at Rite Aid

Rite Aid is officially my fave drugstore. And the folks at the Rite Aid on Wheeler Rd. at Augusta Parkway (store #11836) are simply super! I've had the privilege of checking out with two different clerks and both were friendly and helpful. And the deals! I love the Single Check Rebates they offer and the +UP rewards make saving so much fun.

I felt like a veteran today when the lady in line behind me said that she was just wondering how I was able to save so much! I told her, "http://southernsavers.com" and smiled!
