Lots of soup: my Albies Run today

$6.68 spent, $44.60 saved
...and I got a $5 catalina in return!!
I did 2 transactions this morning. In the first, I bought 30 cans of soup (tomato and chicken noodle) and almost 2lbs of grapes. I paid $6.68 after using a variety of $1 off 2 cooking soup printables, $.40 of 2 insert coupons, and a set of doublers. I got back a $5 catalina (for having spent $15 before coupons on Campbells products). The second transaction was the 4 boxes of Wheat thins for $10 before any discounts. The promo took off $3, I used four $1 Wheat Thins printables, and three doublers to get them all for free. This will make for some easy lunches this fall!

  1. Wow, that is a lot of soup! Wish we liked Tomato and Chicken Noodle Soup. Just not big fans of it. I got a couple, but that was it. But, definitely going to have to get the Wheat Thins later today!

    Did you see Safeway has a good deal going on Nature Valley Nut Clusters??

  2. Jen, thanks for stopping by! We don't eat a lot of tomato soup, but I do like it for dipping grilled cheese on rainy fall days. I'm hoping the toddler will like chicken noodle, I know I loved it when I was a kid. If not, we'll donate most of it. For less than $2, I'm willing to take a chance and see. (It might also work as backup chicken stock once drained, right?).

    I did see the nut cluster deal! I got a ton of $1.60 coupons from Pssst so I sent my mom to do the deal. I'll probably try to hit Safeway either monday or Tuesday to do mine, did you make it over there yet?

  3. Love it! I did the soup deal this week and purchased 30. I don't think I've ever purchased that much soup in one run! I felt kinda silly about it, but what a great deal!!
    I was so tired that I didn't get a picture of mine, glad you got one of yours.
    Krazy Coupon Lady has some great recipes up this week for the tomato soup. Looks like some great ideas!
