We shared earlier the results of this week’s shopping trip at Target. Well over the weekend, we also hit Walmart to grab a special gift for our soon to be 3-year old daughter that is a baby fanatic. Well, we had told you about a $75 doll that you could possibly get for $19.90!! This was a really popular doll before Christmas and we didn’t see it go lower than $45.
In fact, Amazon right now has it down to $49.99 and the Walmart we shopped at had the shelf price of $60. But, when you scanned the doll, they were marked down to $29.90. Then with using that $10 off coupon that we told you about = final is $19.90! We were thrilled to get her an interactive baby doll!
So we went to go get this doll and grabbed a few of the deals there at Walmart too!
Here’s what we bought:
- 1 package of flour tortillas on sale for $1.00 = final is $1.00
- 1 Tyson Fajita Chicken Strips on roll back for $2.50 (was $2.78). Then used the $1.00/1 printable coupon (no longer available) = final is $1.50
- 2 Sambazon Organic Juice smoothies for $2.68 each = $5.36. Then used two FREE coupons – $5.36 = final is FREE
- 1 box of Honey Bunches of Oats cereal for $2.82. Then used the $1.00/1 printable coupon = final is $1.82
- 1 Hillshire Farms Grilled Essentials on roll back for $2.21 (was $3.48). Then use the $1.00/1 printable coupon = final is $1.21
- 2 Village Naturals products large containers (1 bath salts and 1 foaming milk bath) for $3.22 each = $6.44. Then used two $1.00/1 printable coupons – $2 = final is $4.44 for two or $2.22 each
- 1 Kikkoman Panko Bread Crumbs for $1.83. Then used $3.00/1 printable coupon = final is FREE plus $1.16 OVERAGE
- 3 Organic Sunflower Oil Cooking Spray normally $3.88 each = $11.64 on markdown for $2.00 each = final is $6 for three or $2 each
Summary: the total before sales and coupons was $95.35. The sale prices brought the total down to $63.70. We then used $23.36 in coupons which made our new total $40.34 for all of the above plus our 2% cash back from Perk Street = final was $39.53. Since $19.90 of the purchase was for this doll, we spent $19.63 on all of the groceries and was happy to be able to stock-up on our natural Sunflower cooking spray too!

We had a total of three shopping trips in the last week – but first we wanted to share the most current one with you and will share the other two later this afternoon including a special birthday toy that sold for $75 before Christmas that we were able to find for $19.90 with a coupon and clearance! So excited about this one…. but more to come 
With that in mind, we wanted to share this week’s Target shopping trip results. We honestly only went in for Pull-Ups, but you know us and how we check the produce, meat and other markdown to make sure we aren’t missing an unadvertised deal and as one way that we save on the produce, meat and organic items!
Here’s what we bought:
- 2 Pull-Ups Value pack boxes with the final price of $15.49 each (they were on sale for $25.99, but with the coupons and scenario we told you about HERE on our diaper deals, you can get them for as low as $15.49 each this week – this is equivalent to around $5 a jumbo pack!) = final is $31
- 6.63 lbs. of bananas for .52 each lb. = final is 3.45
- 2 HUGE cantaloupe on sale for $2.29 for the whole size (not per lb.) = final is $4.58 (these are HUGE like small watermelon size!)
- 4 Seventh Generation dishwasher detergent normally $5.99 on markdown for $2.98 = $11.92. Then used $0.75/1 Seventh Generation Cleaning Product, p.174 All You Magazine, Nov 2011 (exp 01/31/2012) = final is $11.17 for 4 or $2.29 each
- 3 packs of Laura’s Lean organic beef for $20.27 (average of $6.76 each). Then used 3 $3.00 coupons attached to the packages – $9 = final is $11.27 or $3.75 each
Summary: the total before sales and coupons was $112.24. The sale prices brought the total down to $92.20. We then used $30.75 in coupons which made our new total $61.45 for all of the above plus our 2% cash back from Perk Street = final was $60.22.
As the big boxes of Pull-ups alone are $29.99 each normal price – everything else was bonus just from using a few coupons and watching for sales! The best part is that we were able to get the organic meats that we love and our brand of dishwasher detergent for a rock bottom price. We have shared how we buy our meats normally, and the ones we bought on this trip are also ones we mentioned as a secondary option. Check out our meat stock up post HERE.

We had a HUGE shopping trip this week. Here’s the deal, we were out of town for over two weeks and just got back on Saturday. So we were out of nearly everything fresh and there was a super Mega Event Sale at Smiths – our local Kroger affiliate store. We literally had not been grocery shopping in over a month total (other than grabbing some milk, eggs and produce). This is a type of shopping trip out of the ordinary as it is one of the biggest we’ve had in a very long time – it was actually really fun!
We bought a total of 141 items for $123.91 in the end, which included a lot of produce, cheese, eggs, milk and even a bunch of organic items! The tab was $311.52 before the discounts!
So we really had a lot to make up and quite a lot of our grocery budget that was saved from not shopping in all that time! So we made up for it in one of the biggest shopping trips we have had in a VERY long time! In fact it is so big, that we had to break up the picture into two parts!
