Cub Foods Deal: Yoplait Cups for $0.20
>> Wednesday, January 6, 2010
I just got back from a shopping trip at Cub Foods and I wanted to post up about a pretty good deal on Yoplait yogurt cups.
This week at Cub, Yoplait cups (Original, Whips, Light or Thick & Creamy) are on sale for $0.40 per cup with the ad coupon.
If you buy 20 cups, stack the ad coupon with one $1.00/8 Printable Coupon and two $0.50/6 Printable Coupons found here or here.
Your total out-of-pocket expense will be $6.00 for 20 cups. But wait! There's more....
What is not in the ad, but is posted on the shelves at the store is this: if you buy 20 cups, you will receive a coupon at checkout for $2.00 off your next order. So, factoring in this money off coupon, your net cost for 20 cups of yogurt would be $4.00 or $0.20 each!
FYI: The $2.00 off your next order coupon spits out of the catalina and the catalina's can be very slow at times, so make sure you wait for your coupon to come out.

Saturday Savings Summary - 1/2/10
This week was great for grocery savings. I had a couple of good shopping trips. I was able to get great deals on the final few ingredients for my freezer cooking day in January and I also stocked up on a few of our household favorites.
First stop was CVS. $24 ECBs in hand when I went, this is what I came home with.
2 ThermaCare Heat Wraps, 2 bottles of shampoo, 1 bottle of lotion, 1 razor, 3 sticks of deoderent, 3 bottles of dish soap, 1 tube of toothpaste and 2 packages of M&Ms
Total Value of All Items (before sales or coupons): $67.79
Total Discounts from sales and coupons: -$64.49
Total Out Of Pocket Expense: $3.30
Received: $17.50 ECBs
95% Savings!
Then I hit Rainbow on Double Coupon Wednesday. There were a few outstanding deals, including one on yogurt that was a money-maker. Here is my haul:
6 CPK frozen pizzas, 20 avacados, 12 bags of shredded cheese, 2 blocks of chunk cheese, 32 single serving cups of yogurt, 12 four cup packs of yogurt, 16 cans of campbell's tomato soup, 6 packages of chicken leg quarters, 2 packages of ground sausage, 20 pounds of potatoes, 4 large cans of diced tomatoes, 1 bag of chopped pecans, 1 bag of mini marshmallows, 1 can of tomato paste, 5 cans of tomato sauce and 2 bottles of spices.
Total Value of All Items (before sales or coupons): $216.29
Total Discounts from sales and coupons: -$163.79
Total Out Of Pocket Expense: $52.50
76% Savings!
If you were shopping at Rainbow on Wednesday, you no doubt received the catalina slip advertising the Roundy's promotion on Kraft Products starting 1/1/10 and running through 1/24/10. Buy five qualifying Kraft products in one transaction, receive a coupon for $5.00 off your next order.
Since Rainbow was also running a great sale on Kraft cheese this week, for just two days (Friday and Saturday) you could score shredded or chunk cheese for only $0.32 per bag/chunk if you used the coupon in the Rainbow in store ad along with the $5.00 off coupon. That's a 91% savings over the regular price!
Since we go through a lot of cheese, I stocked up at this amazing price on Friday. I also grabbed four more packages of chicken leg quarters, since they were at such a good price too.
Cheese & Chicken Stock Up Trip:
Total Value of All Items (before sales or coupons): $247.94
Total Discounts from sales and coupons: -$211.76
Total Out Of Pocket Expense: $36.18
85% Savings!
So, at the close of this week, I am slightly over budget, but I'm thrilled with my savings and also the items I was able to stock up on.
This Week's Spending: $91.98 (for items valuing $532.02)
This Week's Savings: $440.04
Percentage of Savings: 83%
Unfortunately, my freezer cooking day was postponed, probably until Wednesday or even Thursday of next week so I'm not off to a great start this month in that department, but I'll get to it this week. Stay tuned!

Read more...Eat From The Pantry Challenge: My Plans

I am excited to be joining up with Life As Mom and Money Saving Mom in their month long challenge for January: Eat From Your Pantry! You can read more about this here or here.
I've already posted my month long meal plan, which you can read here, although I'm going to be adjusting just a couple of items from what is listed.
So my plan for the month will be this:
1. Freezer Cooking Day(s), beginning on January 1st, hopefully ending on the 2nd. I'll be using a lot of the items I purchased during my shopping trips in December and also using what we already have in the pantry and freezer.
2. Spend no more than $225 for groceries in the month of January. This is BIG goal for us. We are thrilled with the amount of savings we were able to accomplish in December by really cracking down on spending and shopping wisely, so I'm setting this goal with a lot of confidence that we will be able to reach it. I still plan on going out for my weekly trip to Rainbow Foods on Wednesdays to help me stock up on items I will need for February's menu or fresh items during January.
3. Find a really, really good casserole recipe. I have a big aversion to 'cream of anything soup' and nearly every casserole, or as we Minnesotan's say... "hot dish" recipes call for some sort of canned cream soup, and I just can quite get my head in to that cooking method. I did find a really neat 'universal casserole' recipe this week, so my hubby and I have been brainstorming our own ingredients to come up with something healthy and tasty. I really only need one good recipe, to fill two nights in a month long menu. I like to have what I call "pan food" for Tuesday nights, since we are busy and usually rushing to leave the house. I want to serve up something healthy and delicious, but also something that requires nothing more than 'freezer removal, oven insertion'.
I'm eager to get starting with my freezer cooking for January and to see if we are able to stay on track for the month. I plan on posting weekly what our meals are and how we are doing on our grocery spending goals. What to join in the fun? Click here to link up your goals!
