What a big Haul……
You have been seeing me do small shopping trips. I have been pretty stocked up on things so that is why I've been doing small trips. Well, here is a big haul. It was a little crazy since a lot of the items I wanted were out of stock, but I found enough to use my coupons. I went to Meijer and Walmart in Champaign.

Meijer
1-Meijer Milk 1.99
1-Meijer Eggs .99
1-Breakfast links - turkey 3.99
2-Brat links - turkey 3.99 20% sale 3.19 each
1-Butterball Turkey 35.32  Yes, that is a 20 pound bird
2-Heinz gravy .99 each
4-Stove Top Stuffing .99
1-Stove Top Stuffing - FREE when buy 4
2-Kraft chuck cheese 3.19 each
1-Kraft chuck cheese - FREE when buy 2
2-Kraft Singles3-Kraft Dressing 3/5.00
2-Wheat Thins 2.00 each
2-Ritz 2.00 each

Retail grand total = 97.79  This is what I would have paid if there was no sale, promotions or coupons.
Sale price, Meijer promotions = 36.80
Coupons 15.50
     10.00 off meat (county market ad, mfg coupon)
     3.00 off butterball turkey
     1.00/ 2 ritz
     .50 x 3 cracker (Meijer meal box)
OOP = $45.49 (before tax)

Walmart
Transaction 1
4-Tide singles .97 each
7-Nesquik Chocolate drink mix 1.00 each
2-Ocean Spray drink 1.97 each

Grand Total $14.82
Coupons: 12.20
4- 2.00 Tide (love this coupon)
7- .60 Nesquik
OOP $2.62 (before tax)

Transaction 2
3-Tide singles .97 each
2-jet puff marshmallow 1.25 each
2-King rolls 2.00 each

Grand total $9.41
Coupons: 8.50
3- 2.00 Tide
1- .50/2 marshmallow
2- 1.00 king rolls
OOP = $0.91

Yes, I could have done some price matching with the marshmallows,and only picked up one of the ocean spray drinks, but I was just trying to make sure I had enough to cover the coupon. With all of my cold and allergy meds messing with my match skills I think I still did pretty good. :o)

Shopping trip totals.
Retail price = 122.02
Coupons,
Sales,
Promotions = 73.00
Out of pocket = 49.02 60% savings

I will also get a great rebate back off my receipts with the Endorse program.  Most of the thanksgiving items I will get 20% of the cost of the item back and then 2% off the  total for the fact I shopped at Meijers, and Walmart.  I think the rebate will be around 10.00
