We then have to admit something…… we LOVE Fage Greek yogurt. We don’t get it very often as both Walmart and Target sell it for $1.42 each container – YIKES. But it is soooo good and very healthy for you. So we were walking around Target and saw that the Fage yogurt was on price cut for $1.20 each. We thought it would be a nice treat for ourselves… so we grabbed 5 of them = $6 treat!
Target Summary: The total was $75.35. Then after the Target store sales, it dropped to $47.17. We then used $23.09 in coupons which made our new total $24.08 Plus the $6 in Fage Greek Yogurt…. $30.08. This was a savings 68% savings without the yogurt, but because we indulged in a treat… our savings was really 60% 😉
