Savings for the Week of March 30th

Hello!

There are some great deals this week! Hopefully you will be able to understand and utilize them all!

Kroger -
Kroger Half Gallon Milk - $1.77 - Please don't miss this one! If you need a gallon of milk, you might just think this doesn't apply to you. A gallon of milk is $3.99 this week. If you buy two half gallon's, which equals a gallon - you will only pay $3.54. Hopefully this makes sense!!!!
Ball Park Franks - 24 cents - (sale and coupon)
Cottonelle Bath Tissue - FREE!!!!! (sale and coupon) (STOCK UP!!!)
Bertolli Skillet Meals for Two - #3.49 (sale and coupon)
Lastly, this is where there is a big sale! It is called a MEGA Event Sale. This translates to - buy 10 of the participating products and get $5 off instantly. This $5 is in addition to the sale. You will know that it is a participating product, by the fact that is has a very large yellow tag that reads "participating item." When I am shopping, anytime I buy an item of this kind, I put it in the bottom of my cart. That way at the end, I can count to make sure that I have bought at least 10 items.
Most all of the items in the MEGA Event sale are already reduced prior to the extra $5 off. If you use your coupons wisely, you can get most of these items free. There are too many to list - here are a few to take note -
Goldfish Crackers - (who can't use those?Ha!)
Pillsbury Pizza Crust
Pillsbury Grands Rolls
Betty Crocker Cookie Mix

Happy Shopping!!!

This past week the Kindergarten, Pre-1st, 1st and 2nd Grade had their annual musical. If you are needing to put yourself into the Easter Spirit. Look at the above picture. At one point, all of the kids were looking up to heaven singing with their arms held high. There were a lot of teary eyes!

Neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt



Our Neighborhood had their annual Easter Egg Hunt this weekend. Kaitlin and Jackson were happy to participate. Each child was only allowed to pick up 10 eggs. For a moment, I was helping Kaitlin and not watching Jackson. After the hunt was over, I heard several kids saying that they hadn't found 10 eggs. Then I looked in Jackson's basket, he was proudly telling everyone -"I found all the eggs!!!" Needless to say, I snuck a few out and put them in other baskets.

Fun in the SUN!!!


We have been very excited to have some great sunshine here and there! Here are a few shots of us playing outside. Notice that Jackson has his "noculars" that he made at school. They are for bird watching - Ha! If you ever need a laugh, imagine this entire class of 2 year olds walking around with their homemade binoculars looking for birds!

Hello!

There are lots of great deals this week!

Kroger -
They have a few deals going this week.

Walgreen's -
There are so many deals that I can't list them all! I just bought $23.51 in product (including tax). After I get my rebates and with all the savings - I only paid $1.53!!!! How can you do this too? Pick up the Wal-Greens Easy Saver Book - for all the products that are FREE after rebate, you can also use a manufacturer's coupon. Most of these coupons were in this week's flyer. It is very easy to do the rebate on-line!
Zest or Olay Bar Soap - again - they will pay you to buy them. They are FREE in store this week because of a deal that they have going on. I took coupons in for $3 off of both combined, so they paid me $3 to buy this one.
I hope this makes sense and that you can do the same thing!!!!

Happy Shopping!!!!
