Free Triscuits?

so Kroger has Triscuits for .99 AQ, and there's supposedly a rebate?? $10 back from purchasing 10 participating nabisco products. i'll be finding that out today.. that would make them FREE!!! if that's the case, my parents and my brother will also be purchasing 10 boxes each :D

also turkey hill ice cream was .99 AQ; and kroger is where the del monte gold pineapples are, for the .75 q; and cheese is 1.25 which is the best price til the spring .99 sale and we're out; and i had some good q's in the mail from kroger, like .75 on la croix water and $1 off folger's coffee which is 4.99 this week and a bag of free frozen vegs, and .75 off kroger cheese, and $1 off a $5 dairy purchase. thank you!

spent $66, saved... umm the receipts are in the car... i remember $85 with my kroger card and $22 in coupons...

"Hurry up --

let's get out of here before they realize what we just did!"

--to my husband after scoring 60 PACKS OF FREE TUNA at meijer last night!! We also got 4 Aunt Millie's Early American bread for $1.50 aq, which may not be great but he was determined to buy bread so it was better than paying full price!! and lunchmeat, and produce for a stir-fry, and loaf pans for packing up his dinners, and balloons.

spent $26.25 and saved $68.27 -- 72%

56.51 was coupon savings, and it would have been $64 if the tuna hadn't been on sale!

these single-serve tuna pouches don't expire til the end of 2011 or 2012 (i forget, now..) and are a great source of lean protein! the coupons are .55/1 bumblebee 2.5 or 4 oz pouch, expire 12/31 and you may still be able to find them on e-bay.

i remember when we started couponing (two and a half years ago??), wondering "when are we going to get great deals on "real" food?" this is it!! :D Triscuits (100% whole grain!) are due to go on sale soon, too, so try to snag some of those $1/1 nabisco q's, and the kraft singles q's. but only get enough cheese to make it to easter, because kroger has a $1 cheese sale right around late winter/early spring.
