Hope you have checked out the Smith's sale this week!

I often do my shopping on Mondays and I am sorry about that because most sales end on Tuesday.  So, I know the sale ends tomorrow, though I wouldn't be surprised if they extend the sale or part of it for another week-they often do that when they do these buy 10 items, get $5 off.  Anyway, there are several GREAT things!  

I got 30 boxes of Rotini pasta for FREE!!  I also got 8 cases of the Nestle water for $1.54/case!  Now with the Nestle water, there is a catalina.  So get 4 cases then get 6 other items that are part of the "buy 10, get $5 off" sale.  Then you will receive a $5 catalina for buying the Nestle water as well--making it $1.54/case (including the catalina)!!!  Pretty awesome!!  I am going to go back tomorrow and get 8 more cases of water!  The Kelloggs cereal is also pretty sweet as well!  Buy 4 for $10 and get 2 free gallons of milk (essentially taking $1 off each box of cereal since the milk is $2/gallon), plus there is a coupon--making it about $2/box before calculating in the milk.  There are 2 coupons from the paper--one is $1/2 and the other is $1/3.  You can get up to 8 boxes per transaction, and 4 gallons of milk is what we drink in a week.  So use 2 of the $1/3 and 1 of the $1/2 equaling 8 boxes.  Or if you take 4 papers, you will have 4 of the $1/2.  

I also did great at Walgreens last week!  I spent $4 and got $4 back in Register Rewards!  It was awesome!  I got 2 Irish Spring body washes, 10 jellos, a bag of potting soil, 2 Dial Hand soaps, and nylons.

Keep up the great shopping and remember to always check grocerysmarts before you want to go get some fast food or go to a restaurant.  Under the "alphabetical coupon index" on the home page (center of page, small font above "choose your store" option--under Restaurants in that index you will find any coupons available for any fast food or restaurant!  Pretty sweet!  I also use this when I have to buy something not on sale and I want to know if there is a coupon for it.

I hope you are getting along with shopping the grocerysmarts way!  Remember it takes some time to get it down, but it is SO SO worth it!!  I have started doing Bountiful Baskets and so now all I buy is my staple items to stock up on that are 4 or 5 stars, milk, eggs, and bread.  I get all my fresh produce from Bountiful Baskets and everything else with coupons using grocerysmarts!  It is awesome!

Have a good one and if you want to host a class, I would be happy to teach one for you!

  1. I'm curious how you got 30 boxes of Rotini pasta for free. Were there coupons to combine for it?

  2. Have you used the grocerysmarts website? There is a direct link in the right column of this blog. You will have the option to select your store and select Smiths. Then it will lay out Smith's sale for the week and tell you where to get any coupons that would be available for the items that are on sale. Don't worry, grocerysmarts is completely free!!
