Brag of the Week: $3.05

Here's today's haul:

• from King Soopers (Denver's Kroger affiliate store), 6 rolls of Bounty, a 4-pack of Angel Soft, and two boxes of whole grain Barilla pasta.  All these items are included in the current 10-items-for-$10 sale, so they were $1 each.  I had four $1 coupons for the Bounty, and then two more $0.55 Bounty coupons which doubled up to a dollar, so the six rolls of Bounty were free.  I had a $0.45 coupon for the Angel Soft that doubled to $0.90, so that cost me $0.10.  For the pasta, I had a $1 for 2 boxes coupon, so I basically got one free. My total on the King Soopers run:  $1.10.  The King Soopers receipt is here.
• from Target,  I purchased five name-brand toys for a song.  I got 2 Kreo Transformers Optimus Prime figures for $8.79 each with two $8 coupons, 1 Hungry Hippos Travel Set for $6.09 with a $5 coupon, and 2 Transformer Bots Playskool Heroes for $7.69 each with two $8 coupons (a small moneymaker). I printed the high-value toy coupons from here.  We don't have kids, but I'll be donating the toys to my synagogue's children's learning program.  I saved $37 and paid $1.95 (sans tax) for all five toys.  The Target receipt is here.

My grand total for the haul was $3.05.  Tax (oh, how I hate tax) brought it up to $6.62.

After I checked out at Target, I was feeling all full of myself and supersmart for saving so much money today.  Yeah. And then it took me twenty minutes of wandering around the parking lot to remember where I parked my car.

Got brag?  Send it on down.  I'll need either a scan of your receipt or a picture of what you bought, preferably both, in order to be able to post it.  I love it when I save money but I really love it when you save money.
