I know, I know...this is a lame thing to post. But I'll tell you, I got a total adrenaline rush! Yesterday I saw the
Albertson's ad in the paper and it had a 10 for $10 sale. Yes!! I seriously had a hard time getting to sleep last night. I couldn't stop thinking about what I was going to buy and stressing that it would all be gone by the time I got there. I'm surprised that I didn't dream about it. I got Derek off to school this morning and we were out the door at 8:05 AM. My heart started racing when I saw people coming out of the store. I peeked at their bags to see what they had (no one had the sale items... crazies). Needless to say, there was plenty of everything on hand. So, here's what I bought this morning.
17 Boxes of Cereal (the only kind the kids will eat)
9 Boxes of Sweet and Salty Granola Bars (the best ever!)
7 Boxes of Fruit Roll-ups
4 Boxes of Fruit by the Foot
2 Boxes of Fruit Snacks
1 Bag of
Chex Mix
Guess what my total came to after tax and coupons????
...... Only $30.45
That averages to 76 cents a box. I could have done better if I was one of those women that get multiple copies of the paper, but oh well. So who needs the rush of sky diving when there is a sweet sale to be had??!!! :) The sad thing is...I want to go back and get more. Hee hee hee.

Ahhh your such a cute little addict. Can you send some good deals this way. What is it with Utah and the crazy good cheap food? We need something like that here, by the way have you heard of the grocerygame.com? I think youd love it.
Way to go!!! I am really hoping that once we get out of Northern Cali we will be able to find great deals at the store. I miss really great sales!!!!
A woman after my own heart! I love the word SALE!
that's nuts! Congrats Natalie!
Hmmm...my husband jumps out of airplanes for a living--and also for that adrenaline rush. I've always wondered why anyone would be an accountant where there are so many more exciting jobs out there, but after reading this post I'm beginning to see...Way to save a buck!
I was plotting a post in my mind (which kept me from falling asleep) about my bargain shopping adventure. So you aren't crazy at all! I hit a great clearance sale (furniture, bedding, toys, and food)and got $735 retail priced stuff for $337! I was so pumped up about it!
