Shopping trip with mom


My mom wanted me to be with her when she shopped to make sure her coupon deals where done right.  Everything was going smooth until we were looking at the coffee creamers, and I realized that I left my Chai on a low flame on the stove.  Thanks God I live really close to the Champaign Meijers.  I ran home to save my chai and house from the open flame.  My mom took the 10 minutes to go off our coupon plan.  By the time I got back to the store she had her cart filled with full price items.  The other mistake she did was to pick up only half of the items she need for the free items deal.  I tried to fix as much of the issues in her cart.  Here are the deals she got after I corrected her cart.

Item, price = coupon used.

2 - Dole fruit cup, 2/4 = 1/2 on the package
1 - V8 fusion smoothie, 3.49 = 1.00/1
4 - coffee-mate creamer -clearance, 0.74 = .50/1 = comes down to .24 each

2 - Motts apple juice, 2.19 = 1/2 mealbox, Plus 5.00 off when you by 5 off the combo
3 - Motts Apple sauce, 3/5     This brings this combo down to $3.38 for all 5 Motts

4 - Barilla pasta sauce, 2/4 = Mfq 1.00, and 1/4 mealbox = came down to .75 each

4 - Smart Balance Milk, 2.59 = Mfq 1.50, 1/2 mealbox = came down to .59 each

10- Lean Cuisine Simple Favorites 5/10
            Buy 10 get 2 of the Market bagged meals for free a 7.18 value
            3.00 off any future shopping trip at meijer also printed on this deal when we checked out.

With my mom buying items that were not on sale she was still able to save 50%.
