A Visit to Wal-Mart: With Coupons!

I stopped by Wal-Mart on the 4th of July. Was I nuts? Yes! But I have forgiven myself, since I came home with this:



I had a coupon for every item you see pictured.


Powerade ($0.75 coupon from 6/8 SS insert)
Gogurt ($1.00 coupon from my purple coupon widget on the left)
Dannon Activia yogurt ($1.00 coupon from 6/22 SS insert)
Blue Bunny Ice Cream novelty ($1.00 coupon here)
1 bag Malt-o-meal cereal ($1.50 coupon here)
Post Just Bunches cereal ($2.00 coupon here)
V8 Fusion juice ($2.00 coupon here)

3 Kotex panty-liners (3/$1.00 coupons from All You magazine or printable here)
2 KY (2/$3.00 coupons from 5/11 RP insert)
1 sample size KY ($2.00 coupon from 6/22 SS insert)
1 travel size John Frieda Frizz Ease mousse ($1.00 coupon from May All You magazine)
1 Pledge Aerosol (found $2.00 peelie on bottle, score!)
1 Pledge Multi-surface spray (BOGO coupon from 6/15 SS insert)

Total Before Coupons: $31.35

Total After Coupons: $8.38!!

Going to Wal-Mart is actually tolerable with savings like this.

Thanks to Denise for the tips!

I also stumbled upon some sweet deals on school supplies. As low as 5 cents for a notebook! Almost as good as the Staples sale.

What? Wow!! I am amazed by that. I'm just trying to get the hang of CVS and I didn't know I could do that well at Wal-Mart too. Very cool.

Karen said...

I stumbled onto your blog through your comment on Fussy's blog.

Our Walmart did not have the school supplies and does not take printable coupons-we don't have any luck here!!

Oh, well! Your blog looks great, I will have to check more out when it is not cleaning day.
