Big Shopping Day part 1

Today is my gigantic crazy awesome shopping day!!! So far we have hit Target and Smith's. A lot of planning and calculating went into it and it was definitely tiring, but well worth the effort! For my pics, I have seperated items from both stores together, into categories and will give the details of the deal involved. We still have to hit Fresh Market and Macey's today! So excited!!

Cold Items                                                                 Smith's had the milk for $1.99
The low fat cream cheese was .99 ea
For the whipped topping, I had a -.40/1 Smith's coupon which made it .79
Kroger Ice Cream was on sale 2/$4
The Lean Pockets were part of Smith's Daytona special this week. Buy 10 participating items and get a $3.00 discount(basically .30 off each item), then earn a $3.00 coupon to use toward your next order.

The Activia yogurt and Frigo cheeses were at Target. This is the best price I have found on the Frigo multi pack so far. $2.99 and then use -$1/1 coupon.
 
 Meats and Produce
Smith's has a great sale on meat this week! These roasts were $1.99/lb. I love how they have the original price and sale price on the package so you can see how much you are saving!
The mushrooms were $1.89, beating out Associated Food stores.
The mangoes were .89 each.
The Hormel salami and pepporoni were part of Smith's 10/$10 deal. I bought 6 and used (3) -$1/2 coupons, making them just .50 each!!!
Snacks and treats                                                        
The Reese's Peanut Butter Cups are from Target. I ad matched them with Macey's 2/$1. I then used Targets web coupon; B1G1 FREE.
At Smith's, the Snack Pack pudding cups are part of the 10/$10 sale. I bought 9 and used (3) -.60/3 coupons.
The Fruit snacks were part of the same deal.
The Ruffles Baked chips were bought with a FREE Ruffles or Lays Smith's store coupon I received in the mail. They retail for $3.67!!!
Pantry Items
The Quaker Oatmeal Squares are from Target. I had Target Web coupons for -$1/2 and also -$1/1 Quaker mfr coupons, making them $1.14 each.
The smaller cans of soup are from Target. I used Target web coupons for -$1/3. It made the Condensed Tomato soups just .24 each!!
The Parsley flakes were just $1.02 on sale at Target.
At Smith's, the Chex cereals were part of the Daytona deal, $1.99 on sale. I then used -.75/1 coupons. With the extra coupon after sale, it's like paying just .94 each!
On the same deal, I got 8 cans of Campbell's chunky soup and used the -$1/4 coupons. The Barilla noodles were part of the 10/$10 deal. I used a Barilla coupon that was actually for Picollini noodles, but it worked for these ones. Don't be afraid to try a coupon that lists a similar item of the one you want! If it's the same brand, it just might work!
The Kraft BBQ sauces were part of the Daytona deal and with the discount, it's like getting them for just .39 ea!
Finally a couple of household/personal care items.
The Purex is from Smith's, part of the Daytona deal and with a -$1/1 coupon, it's like getting it for just .90!!!
The Vaseline lotions retail for $2.99. I used Target web coupons to save $1 on each and then mfr coupons to save another $1 on each, making them just .99 each! You won't find off brand lotions of the same size for that price!!!
The Degree deoderants retailed for $1.97. I used a Target coupon to save $1 on each and then mfr coupons to save another .75 on each! I got them for just .22 each!!!!
Now we are off to our last two stores!
