This one is for you, mom!

Here's my Kroger trip from tonight. Yes, I did just run in to buy bananas. But I can't JUST buy bananas.....


1 vanilla yogurt for Owen ($.64)
2 Glade Plug-in Gel Warmers ($1.89 each)
1 Dole Salad (on sale for $.99 but needs to be eaten in the next couple days)
1.29lb grapes ($1.79/pound! ARGH!! Meijer has them on sale for $.99 but the last couple times I've tried to buy them they have a really strong chemical smell. I'll pay more to avoid feeding my child chemicals, thank you very much)
2.66lb bananas ($.53'lb)
1 bag of Gala apples ($2.99)
1 dozen eggs ($1.59)

Total before coupons- $13.94
Total after coupons- $.85!!!!

How, you ask? The Glade warmers play a big part. They cost $1.89 each. I had $1 off coupons I used, making them $.89 each. Kroger is running a special where if you buy a warmer you get a $2 off your order coupon. Yeah, figure that one out... you get paid to take these warmers. So each of the warmers paid me $1.11 to take them out of the store. I had some of those coupons from another day (anyone want any Glade Plug-In warmers? I've got plenty! LOL!), so I used those too. I had a coupon for free eggs so I used that.
