Shopping Trip 12/3: Kroger And Albertsons 70% Savings

This morning before my husband left for work, I decided to make my final two shopping trips that I did not get around to last night as I intended.  I usually cringe at the thought of shopping on a Saturday, but it wasn't really all that bad.  The store wasn't crowded at all until I reached the checkout lanes at Albertsons right at noon.  It seemed that every person in the store had simultaneously finished their shopping and been summoned forth to pay for their items.  But they called extra help, and it didn't take too long.  I didn't mind anyways, because I was shopping ALONE! =D

My first stop was Kroger, mainly because I had FREE coupons from BZZAgent to redeem.  I found some marked down milk and produce while I was there, as well.  I also noted that my favorite tea was on sale for $2.19 ($1.19 after my coupons)~that's cheaper than I found it for at Tom Thumb yesterday.

Here's what I got from Kroger:

Total Shelf Price:  $26.85  (even more because I don't know the original prices of the milk and produce)
Total Sale Price:   $ 24.31
Price Paid After Coupons:  $6.83    72 % Savings  (even higher if you take the milk/produce into account).

I just noticed that one of the coupons I was handed with my receipt was a $3.00 off my next purchase coupon.  I'm not even sure why I got it!  Score!

I was sent FREE coupons for the three Kroger brand items pictured from BzzAgent so that I could give my opinion of them.


My next stop was Albertsons.  They are having a mega sale going on this week, but also had many other non-mega items at great prices!

Here are the things that I got at Albertsons:

Total Shelf Price:  $93.44
Total Sale Price:   $53.54    Already 43 % Savings
Price Paid After Coupons:  $28.59  69% Savings

Five of my coupons actually did not double correctly, so I took my receipt over to the customer service desk and she refunded my the missing value in cash, with a smile!
