Oroweat Shopping Trip - Stocked up!

I was surprised when I realized we only had two pieces of bread left. It was time for me to stock up on bread. Here's what I purchased for only $13.48 at the Oroweat outlet

12 loaves of Oroweat buttermilk bread (B10G2)
3 packages 10ct tortillas (B2G1)
Free package of donuts (I filled up my punch card)

This should keep us stocked about about 7 to 8 weeks.

My Shopping for Week 1/25

I had made so many shopping trips this week that I'm just summing it up for you. I used up my coupons that I normally use before they expire and stocked up on all the great items that have been on sale. I did get a rain check for more granola bars.

Here is my weekly summary:

I spent $164.69
I saved $99.43

I went over budget this week but for my monthly budget I was only over $31.56; good news is I received $20 in rebates this week in the mail so really I was only over $11.56. Not too bad.


January-at-a-Glance

Total Shelf Cost: $900.69
Monthly Budget: $500.00
Amount Paid : $531.56
Variance: $(31.56) (I did receive $20 in rebates this week)

Sunday's Paper

Wow! Great savings in Sunday's paper. I bought one today and realized how great all the savings are in there, so I'm going to buy a second one. Normally I don't do that but this weeks is great. It's worth two papers with all the savings and Albertson's Doublers.


Make sure you look in the Parade; there is a $1/1 for Keebler Club Crackers. They are on sale at Walgreen's 2 for $5 with a $2RR, use 2 $1/1 coupons and it would be like paying $.50 each.

Use Albertson's doublers, with Albertson's coupons for Ragu and Best foods mayo and the coupons in 1/31 RP $.60/2 for mayo and Ragu use 2 $.30/1 in 1/31 RP.

Coupon booklets at WinCo Foods

I picked up a couple coupon booklets at WinCo yesterday.

• Take the Special K Challenge booklet, $6 savings in coupons.
• Party Recipes and Coupons by snackpicks.com; this includes Cheez-its, Townhouse, Rice Krispies Treats, and Fudge Shoppe, $12 in savings.

For those of you that didn't find these, I picked up a couple extra for you. Just enter my giveaway. I will be giving away 2 of each to 2 different winners. The giveaway will start Monday.

Albertson's Doublers on Sunday

Rumor around the blogging world is that in Sunday's paper there will be Albertson's Doublers. I'm very excited because I have my list ready and I haven't had time to get there. This will make it worth the wait.

Albertson's Granola Bar Sale

I haven't planned out my shopping trips yet for this week but I know that I needed to stock up on the Quaker granola bars because I have only two boxes left from my last stock pile. My family eats them everyday. I went by Albertson's this morning just for the granola bars.

I picked up a couple Yoke's fliers back in January that had the $3 off milk when you buy 5 Quaker products - manufacture coupon. I knew I would use them when the Quaker sale arrived, and I did.

I bought 10 boxes granola bars and two gallons of milk

My total $7.98, I saved $31.90. I used two $3 coupons.

Now here is a little trick I do sometimes - it's a little secret of mine and maybe some of you do it. I go in early on Wednesday and stock up on the items I really need, then towards the end of the week, more than likely they will be out of everything and I get a rain check and use the rain check before it expires, which is in about 30 days. Then you also have the opportunity to collect coupons and doublers to go along with your rain check.

Nabisco 100 Calorie Chips Ahoy Fudge Drizzle Cookie Review

Bay & Shay's Product Review

My son, Bailey, and my daughter, Shayla, are trying new products and giving their reviews. They will be starting their own blog soon (when I have time to get one going) reviewing kid products.

Nabisco 100 Calorie Chips Ahoy Fudge Drizzle Cookies was a major hit!

Bailey and Shayla each gave it a two thumbs up! They loved the light cookie with the extra drizzle of fudge. They enjoyed them as an after school snack. Now that the box is gone they want me to buy more.

This product is worth purchasing and giving it a try. I found these at Big Lots on sale for $1.80, so I will be returning to purchase a couple more boxes.

Good Job Bailey and Shayla!

Bargain Meals - 1 Roast, 3 Meals

I'm sure the frugal followers are always curious about meals that the frugal coupon ladies make. So I'm sharing what I have cooked this week. Sure a couple times a week we throw in chicken nuggets or taquitos but for the most part we have home cooked meals.

I purchased a roast 3.75lbs for $7.53 and it was used for three meals.

1st meal:
slow cooker Roast

Place chuck roast in a slow cooker with some Au Jus sauce. Made smashed potatoes ($.50) and served with two cans of green beans ($1.16), we used 1/3 of the beef ($2.51).

Total $4.17

2nd meal: French Dips

1/3 beef $2.51
Hoagie buns $.98
Monterey Jack Cheese $.45
Au Jus sauce $.35

Total $4.29

3rd meal: Fajitas and salad

1/3 beef $2.51
Tortillas $1.28
Fajita seasoning $.35
Cheese $.50
Salad $1.48

Total $6.12

We should get more vegetables than we do but we just aren't the veggie type of family. I try.

Bargain Meal - Biscuit Pizzas

What should you do with those Pillsbury Grand biscuits that you purchased on sale? Make Pizza!

Separate the biscuits, then flatten them out as much as you can. They will puff up when they cook. Put them on a baking dish, spread pizza sauce on them (about 1 1/2 tablespoons), top with your favorite toppings. Bake 350 until golden color around the edges.

As you can see a few pizzas disappeared before I could take the picture. One roll of biscuits makes 8 minis pizzas. They were so good!

Total cost for these pepperoni pizzas was about $3 and it with a side salad and it's a fun tasty dinner.

Here is a sneak peak at Albertson's weekly flier. I didn't see anything too exciting yet. I will probably purchase the Tillamook ice cream for 2 for $6 (if you read my blog you know that is a stable in our house and $3 is normally the lowest price) and butter.

Thank you to All Together Beautiful for posting the flier

Soft Scrub Coupons

Here are some great coupons from Soft Scrub:

Thank you to Krazy Coupon Lady for the info.

Do Your Coupons Expire 1/31?

Several coupons expire 1/31. Check your coupons so you don't miss out on a great deal.

As you go through your coupons to see what expire at the end of the month set them in 2 piles.

1. Items you purchase on a regular basis and need soon.
   
2. Items you would only buy if you were to add them to a sale price or a doubler, and items you don't need in the three weeks.
   

Coupons in pile 1:

• prioritize them
• separate them between this weeks shopping and next weeks shopping to control your budget.
  
• If you can't use all the coupons don't worry about there will probably be more soon. Don't overspend just to use your coupons.

Coupons in pile 2:

• Hang on to them just in case you find them on sale in the next couple of weeks.
• When the weekly sales come out check them against your pile 2. If they expire that's okay, you don't want to buy things just because you have a coupon.
• After they expire you can recycle them or send them to a military family. Sending them to a military family might help you from purchasing things you don't need. Military families can use them up to three months after expiration date.

This system helps me, I hope you might find it useful.

$1/1 Yoplait Delights Coupon

$1/1 Yoplait Delights Coupon (this is the firefox internet search link). I love these. WinCo Foods normally has them on sale for about $2, add the coupon and you purchase them for only $1! I will be printing mine and picking a few up on Thursday when I collect my WinCo prices.

Chocolate Cheerios Coupon $.50/1

$.50/1 Chocolate Cheerios coupon. This is going to be the next new product my family reviews. I'm excited about this one.

100 Calorie Mini Cakesters Review

I thought it would be fun for our family to start selecting an item once or twice a month to try and review. This will give my kids the opportunity to try new things and then for us to talk about it. I picked these up on sale at Albertson's for about $1.

100 Calorie Mini Cakesters - Reviewed by the NW Coupon Lady's household. This is only our opinion and no one has paid us for our opinion (I wish), it's just for fun.

There are 3 mini cakes in a package
100 Calories, 4.5 grams of fat, and 15 carbs

I liked that they were only 15 carbs. They are small but if you take a couple small bites of each one and enjoy them, it satisfies your sweet craving. If you want to fill up on a snack this isn't the one for you, but if you are watching your weight and want a treat these are pretty good. It's a nice snack for the kids' lunchbox, the regular size is way too much in addition to a lunch.

Both my kids loved them. They each gave them a two thumbs up.

Would I buy them again? Yes, if they were under $1.50 I would, but more than that no. I'm sure in the future I will be able to pick these up on sale. I would rather purchase this mini size over the full size snacks.
