My Couponing/Saving Success!!

Last night my boyfriend and I prepared a task. We gave ourselves $100 cash. That was how much we were allowed to spend. Not a penny more. Our goal: to maximize the outcome and stretch the cash as far as it would go. By keeping on top of the flyers, I knew I wanted to hit Safeway and Walmart (not that there is a whole lot of options in Swift Current anyways).

 So here's our haul!

Safeway

Catelli Spagetti Sauce - Buy One Get One (B1G1) Free = 3 @ $1.85 + 3 @ $0.00 = $5.55 (saved = $5.55)

Walmart

Unfortunately, I don't have the before sale prices, Silly me, should have written them down. Many items were on insane deals, and some I also doubled up with coupons. Where ever I used a coupon I'll be able to show the savings, but everywhere else I can't find the before price, so I only have the sale. Still check it out there's some great deals.
