Brag of the Week


Click on the image above, and then click again, to see my readable full receipt.

I had a pretty good buy at King Sooper's (Denver's Kroger-owned store) last night: I paid $4.84 (excluding taxes) on a $36.22 purchase, or just 13%. How did I do it?  If you're interested, here's the breakdown.
  • -$10.00 I took advantage of King Sooper's buy-10-get-$5 (b-10-g-$5) sale. I bought 20 items, and each of them qualified for the sale. Mind you, they were 20 items that we needed and would use, and I didn't just buy them to get the bonus $10 at the end.
  • -$2.00 I used two of the Honest Tea $1 coupons. The Honest Tea cost $1 per bottle after the b-10-g-$5 sale, so I got a free product.
  • -$3.00 I had one $0.75 coupon and two $0.50 coupons for Colgate toothpaste, and since King Soopers doubles coupons up to $1, I got an extra $1.25 off. The toothpastes were $1 after the b-10-g-$5 sale, so I got 3 free products.
  •  -$2.00 I had two $1 coupons for Reach toothbrushes, which were $1 each after the b-10-g-$5 sale, so I got two free products.
  • -$1.00 I used a digital Cellfire coupon for Milkbones dog treats. Funny, I also had a paper coupon, but King Soopers wouldn't let me use it, as it appears that you can no longer stack digital manufacturer's coupons with paper manufacturer's coupon. The dog treats were $2.00 after the b-10-g-$5 sale, so I got a half-price product.
  • -$2.50 I had a coupon for $2.50 off one Reach toothbrush and one Reach Access flosser. The toothbrush and flosser were each $1 after the b-10-g-$5 sale, so I actually got two free products and made $0.50 off of this coupon and was able to apply it toward another product. 
  • -$1.00 I had a coupon for $1 off Lady Speedstick, which cost $1.50 after the b-10-g-$5 sale, so I got a full-size deodorant for $0.50. 
  • -$9.88 The remaining discounts were all from the items being on sale. It was nice to get all those Vitamin Waters for $0.50 each.
That wraps up my brag. How about you?  Got brag?  Tell me what it is so I can post it too.
